===''Mario Bros.'' (Game & Watch)===
In [[Mario Bros. (Game & Watch)|''Mario Bros.'']] for the [[Game & Watch]], [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] have to transport bottles through a series of conveyor belts to an awaiting truck.

Conveyor belts<ref>[https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/gameslist/manuals/AGB_Mario_vs_Donkey_Kong.pdf ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' instruction booklet,] page 24.</ref><ref name=MLM/> are frequent mechanisms used by [[Mario]] and [[Mini]] toys throughout the [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (series)|''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series]]. Their design in these games generally features a row of arrows running along their body, pointing in the direction in which the conveyor belt is currently moving. With the exception of their appearance in ''[[Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move]]'', they are always horizontally oriented and run either left or right. [[Conveyor switch]]es often accompany conveyor belts, allowing the player to change the direction of all conveyor belts in the level in order to solve puzzles. Conveyor belts can carry enemies, including fallen [[Thwomp]]s, in their assigned direction.

Conveyor belts also appear in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!]]''. They are the main focus of [[Teatime Twirl]], which also marks the debut of [[Purple Conveyor]]s. Standard gray conveyor belts are called '''Gray Conveyors''' to distinguish them from Purple Conveyors. Gray Conveyors cannot be moved.<ref>[https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/gameslist/manuals/DS_Mario_vs_DK_Mayhem.pdf ''Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!'' instruction booklet.] ''Nintendo.com.''

Instead of being fixed in place like Gray Conveyors, Purple Conveyors can be drawn between any two purple rivets using pieces acquired in a level. Conveyor Switches affect the Purple Conveyors in the same way as Gray Conveyors. After Teatime Twirl, both Gray Conveyors and Purple Conveyors continue to appear frequently throughout the game.

In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', conveyor belts appear as [[trick]]able objects in [[Sunshine Airport]]. They are colored black here. They also appear in [[Rainbow Road (Mario Kart 8)|Rainbow Road]], where they have the same purpose as in ''Mario Kart Wii'', though the color of the backward conveyor belts are red instead of yellow.

Conveyor Belts later appear on the escalators of {{classic-link|Wii|Coconut Mall}}, {{classic-link|3DS|Rainbow Road}}, and {{classic-link|Tour|Singapore Speedway}} in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', with the arrows in the former now being bigger.

Conveyor Belts appear again in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|its remake]], where they are composed of black cylinders. They are found in [[Bowser Path]], [[Bowser's Castle]], and [[Peach's Castle]], where the latter two locations also feature [[Fawful]]-like generators that indefinitely spawn pairs of [[Bob-omb]]s moving in lockstep across Conveyor Belts; the Bob-ombs can be avoided by [[jump]]ing or using a [[Body Slam (Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)|Body Slam]]. Bowser can also be seen going against a conveyor belt for part of his conversation to the Shy Guys he released from the cage.

Conveyor Belts also appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', where they are exclusively found in certain areas of the [[Dreampoint]] in [[Dreamy Wakeport]]. If the "fast" setting of [[Luiginary Speedometer]] is activated, Mario will be able to effortlessly run against the direction of Conveyor Belts.

Conveyor Belts are present in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'' in the level [[Hotfoot Hurdle]]. They are rather short and floating above [[lava]]. They run left (as signified by the three green arrows displayed on them) to make it more difficult for [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] to advance to the right. Conveyor Belts are usually placed in rows or one above the other.

In ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', Conveyor Belts appear only in [[Feel Fuzzy, Get Clingy]], where they are made of the hooks from a {{wp|hook and loop fastener}} (colloquially known as Velcro). Because of this, Yoshi can cling onto them as they move (hence the level name), allowing him to access unreachable areas. [[Burrbert]]s are often found stuck to Conveyor Belts and carried by them.
