Aside from Super Mario Bros. 3 and its subsequent remakes, the only other appearance of Roto-Discs is in the Mini-Mario course in Bowser's Castle in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. As a throwback to the previous games, they are obstacles that can defeat Mario in one hit, sending him back to the beginning of the area.
