'''Rotary Lifts'''<ref>''Super Mario Bros. 3'' English instruction booklet. Page 19.</ref> are spinning [[platform]]s that first appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', and they return in the game's [[reissue]]s in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. There are three kinds of Rotary Lifts: those that spin for a short time and then stop before they resume spinning shortly afterward, those that spin endlessly, and those that tilt based on where the player is standing on them. The first of these is similar to the [[Spinning Log]]s from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. They appear in [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 3-3]], [[World 3-6 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 3-6]], [[World 5-4 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 5-4]], [[World 6-4 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 6-4]], and [[World 6-10|World 6-10]]. In the Game Boy Advance version, they also appear in two [[World-e]] levels, [[A Towering Tour]] and [[An Aqueous Adventure]], the latter being their only underwater appearance.

There are three kinds of Rotary Lifts: those that spin for a short time and then stop before they resume spinning shortly afterward, those that spin endlessly, and those that tilt based on where the player is standing on them. The first of these is similar to the [[Spinning Log]]s from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''.

Rotary Lifts also appear in the Modern version of ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (Game & Watch)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'' in ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 3]]'' and ''[[Game & Watch Gallery 4]]''. When [[Donkey Kong Jr.]] gets the [[key]] on the first stage, a Rotary Lift appears left of [[Donkey Kong]]'s cage. If Donkey Kong Jr. [[jump]]s onto the lift as it spins, he falls to the second floor.
