Many video games, including those in the extended Mario franchise'', features incitatives to replay the game beyond "just" reaching the end of the main storyline .These may be through optional objectives, hidden collectables, ranking systems and the like.

Many of these games may indicate the player's completion percentage', usually on the save file selection screen.

Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS
100% completion is achieved by collecting all of the game's 120 Power Stars (150 in Super Mario 64 DS). After collecting every stars, the following changes take place:
 * The Penguin in Slip Slip Slidding Away becomes bigger.
 * Bowser's dialogue in Bowser in the Sky changes from "Nooo! It can’t be! You’ve really beaten me, Mario?!! I gave those troops power, but now it’s fading away! Arrgghh! I can see peace returning to the world! I can’t stand it! Hmmm… It’s not over yet… C’mon troops! Let’s watch the ending together! Bwa ha ha!" to "Nooooo! You've really beaten me this time, Mario! I can't stand losing to you! My troops… worthless! They've turned over all the Power Stars! What?! There are 120 [150 in Super Mario 64 DS] in all??? Amazing! There were some in the castle that I missed??!! Now I see peace returning to the world… Ooo! I really hate that! I can't watch—I'm outta here! Just you wait until next time. Until then, keep that Control Stick [Touch Screen in Super Mario 64 DS] smokin'! Bwaa ha ha! "
 * The grate for the cannon outside of Princess Peach's Castle is taken out, allowing Mario to use it. In the original Super Mario 64, this allows Mario to reach the roof of the castle and meet Yoshi, who will give the player 100 extra lives and an improved Triple Jump. Due to the changes made in Super Mario 64 DS, this does not occur; the player will instead find one of Luigi's minigame Rabbit on the roof.

Super Mario Sunshine
100% completion in Super Mario Sunshine is achieved by collecting all of the game's 120 Sunshine Sprites. Collecting them all change the after-credit picture to a group photo of the game's friendly characters with the caption "Have a relaxing vacation!" The screen in Delfino Plaza also becomes progressively bright as the player collects Shine Sprites.

Donkey Kong Country
Donkey Kong Country features a completion tracker on the save file, which goes up to 101%. In addition to completing levels and defeating boss battles, the counter goes up when the player finds every Bonus Area in a level. After every bonus area in a given level is found, a ! appears next to the level's name on the world map. It is only necessary to find the Bonus Area and it is not necessary to win it, the sole exception being the bonus hiding another bonus in Oil Drum Alley. The only effect obtaining 101% completion has is changing Cranky Kong's line "If I had been playing, I'd have found everything! I'm sure there must be some bonus rooms you haven't found!" in the ending to "What a player you are, Donkey my lad! You've beaten the Kremlings, and found absolutely everything! You're nearly as good as I used to be!"

Wario Land II
100% completion in Wario Land II is achived by collecting all 50 treasures, completing the Picture Panel and viewing all of the game's 5 endings. Achieving this unlocks the minigame Flagman D.D and the bonus level Steal the Syrup's treasure!!.
