A '''map''' is an item used in all of the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' [[Genre#Role Playing|role playing game]]s. It shows [[Mario]]'s current position in the world, and it is usually received near the start of the game. In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', the player could get the [[Beanbean Map]] by defeating the [[Border Bros.]] in a game of [[Border Jump]]. A map is also received at the start of the game in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''.

In some [[games]], such as ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', the map is more of a feature rather than an item; these maps (which are sometimes called '''map screens''') are mere portals to the other places in the game. Map screens have even appeared in side-scrolling games such as ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' (which was the first ''Mario'' game any type of map appeared in) and ''[[Super Mario World]]''. The ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' map is notable for being both a feature and an item, as it is used as a feature but given to Mario (by the [[Chancellor]]) as if it were an item. The ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', the map was similarly "given" to Mario towards the beginning of the game (this time by a [[Pianta]] known to play for the [[Doot Doot Sisters]]), although this Map is not literally given as Mario could use it before it was "received" from the Pianta. [[Luigi]] also used a map to find [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|his mansion]] in ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''.

In ''Super Paper Mario'', the player can purchase maps from [[Flamm]]. These maps will lead Mario and the heroes to hidden treasures throughout the game. All maps are purchased with [[coin]]s. Once the heroes find the area with the hidden treasure, they must use the [[Pixl]] [[Fleep]], move him over the treasure spot on the screen and press {{button|wii|1}} to flip and find the treasure.
