Goal Pole: Difference between revisions

|latest_appearance=''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'' (2023)

Starting with ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', the pole now has a black flag with a clearer skull symbol; it also now sits on a [[fortress]]-styled base, rather than a [[Hard Block]]. It works as it did in ''Super Mario Advance 4'', though it once again marks the levels' end. Also, if the last two digits of the time limit are the same (except 00) when the level is cleared, the "[[Course Clear]]" theme from ''Super Mario Bros.'' plays instead of the normal one, fireworks go off (1 for ending in 11, 2 for ending in 22, and so on, awarding 4,000 points per explosion, for a maximum of 36,000), and a one-time use bonus [[Toad House]] appears at the map's starting point. Time limits ending in 11, 22, or 33 yield a Power-Up Toad House; 44, 55, and 66 yield a [[Extra life|1-Up]] Toad House; and 77, 88, and 99 yield a [[Mega Mushroom]] Toad House. Additionally, [[Mega Mario]] can even destroy the pole, awarding 8000 points for doing so, and filling up one-fifth of the meter above them, ensuring at least one extra life is gained. They shrink into [[Super Mario (form)|Super form]] and head into the fortress afterwards. However, the time limit does not go into the player's score when this happens.

The Goal Pole in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' reappears in two designs: the standard design from previous games, and one with a blue flag with a white circle containing a four-petaled flower designed in four layers: dark blue from the outside, then light blue, then white, then pink in the middle. The latter Goal Pole can be destroyed by a herd of horned, cloud-like creatures. After either type of Goal Pole, there is a [[Toad House]]-like house with a swirly flower bud roof that replaces a [[fortress]] from which a Toad-like character resembling the house may exit and and give the player a [[Wonder Seed]].<ref>Nintendo of America (June 21, 2023).

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', there is a flagpole in front of the [[Little Fungitown]] that can be slid down on in the [[Beanbean Kingdom]]. A flagpole is also seen in the ''Super Mario Bros.'' picture behind the [[Border Bro]]s.
