Starting with ''[[Super Mario World]]'', if the player collides with and defeats eight enemies while invincible (five in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''), they will get an [[extra life]]. The [[point]] chain as of that game is 200 - 400 - 800 - 1,000 - 2,000 - 4,000 - 8,000 - 1UP - 1UP - 1UP... As the player continues defeating enemies, they will keep getting extra lives for each additional enemy defeated until the Star's power wears off and they are no longer invulnerable, with the exception of ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', where after the player gets an extra life, the chain of points restarts (...4,000 - 8,000 - 1UP - 200 - 400...). Touching another Star while already invincible will prolong the effect and allow the player to continue getting more lives.

Starmen made their debut in the game ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', first found in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]]. It is a very rare item, only found in some levels. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] gets it, they will turn invincible, allowing them to destroy enemies and go through hazards without getting hurt (though they will still lose a life if they fall in a [[pit]] or run out of time). However, the star's power is only temporary, and it will disappear after a certain amount of time. Invincibility is indicated by Mario's flashing sprites and the Starman theme which replaces the current soundtrack. This is the first ''Super Mario'' power-up to have eyes.

The item returns in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' in the same manner as everything else from ''Super Mario Bros.''
The Super Star returns in the same manner as everything else that returns in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. They still grant Mario invincibility and the ability to defeat any enemy he touches.

[[File:SMB2 Star.gif|frame]]
Starmen return in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', and were also present in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' before it was redeveloped into this game. The only way to obtain is to collect five [[Cherry|cherries]] in a level. They have the exact same effect as in the previous games, though instead of bouncing, it will float upwards from the bottom of the screen in a zig-zag fashion after the cherries are collected.

Starmen are more common in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Just like the preceding games, they grant Mario invincibility, but in addition, Mario can run slightly faster than normal. However, unlike most other games, the star's power lasts shorter than normal. If Mario jumps when he is not [[Small Mario]], he does flips in the air. This game also introduces '''Continuous Starman'''<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Super Mario All-Stars'' Player's Guide. Page 113.</ref><ref>Peterson, Erik. ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' Player's Guide. Page 10.</ref> chains, where certain ? Blocks that normally contain [[coin]]s will contain additional stars instead if Mario is invincible when hitting them. If Mario is fast/efficient enough, he can complete large sections of a level while invincible. This is achievable on [[World 3-2 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|Worlds 3-2]], [[World 5-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|5-1]], [[World 5-7 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|5-7]], [[World 7-3 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|7-3]], and [[World 7-7 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|7-7]], and bar [[P-Wing]] use, it is the only way to complete the last of these levels.

Starmen also appear as icons in the [[goal (Super Mario Bros. 3)|goal]] roulette, which must be hit in order to clear a level. If the player gets three Stars (easily done by running at max speed and jumping to the goal at a 45° angle), they receive five [[extra lives]].

====''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''====
Super Stars reappear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', appearing quite often. Like in ''Super Mario Run'', in addition to traditionally granting characters temporary invincibility, the power-up also grants them the ability to attract coins. A Super Star's power can also be shared between characters in local play as well as in online play. Due to the absence of the traditional score system from previous ''Super Mario'' games, when a character defeats multiple enemies under the effects of a Super Star, ratings appear in the order of "Good", "Great", "Super", "Fantastic", "Excellent", "Incredible", and "Wonderful"; from then on, any further action that continues the chain awards the player a 1-Up.

Starmen continue to make appearances into ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]''. In these appearances, they no longer follow the rules of ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' Instead, they grant temporary invincibility, just like in the games. Unlike the Cape Feather and Fire Flower, both Mario and Luigi are seen using the Super Star in ''Super Mario World'': Luigi collects one to dispose of the [[Wiggler|Caterpillars]] in "[[Party Line]]", and Mario collects one from one of the "dizzy stars" that appear after he is knocked out by an [[evil dinosaur]] in the same episode. Mario also collects one when he escapes [[Bowser's Castle|Neon Castle]] with Yoshi in "[[The Yoshi Shuffle]]".

===''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3''===
Stars also appear in the first installment of the ''Wario Land'' series, ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]''. Here, [[Wario]] is able to use the Star for the first time. Besides the theme that plays while invincible, the Star's effects have not changed much from the previous games. The Star also makes Wario run even faster.
===''Yoshi'' franchise===
====''Yoshi's Safari''====
Super Stars appear in ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', dropped from Flying ? Blocks. When dropped from a yellow Flying ? Block, a Super Star's invincibility for Yoshi immediately takes effect, allowing him to defeat any enemies he touches for a limited time. The player also earns 2,000 bonus points. Super Stars can also be dropped from dark green Flying ? Blocks and are used for boss battles only, functioning the same way they do outside the battle. When not used at all, 5,000 bonus points are added to the player's score.
====''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''====
[[File:Super_Star.PNG|frame|right]]
Super Stars appear as rare power-ups in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]''. In this appearance, it turns [[Yoshi]] into a giant [[Yoshi's Egg]], and [[Baby Mario]] into [[Superstar Mario]], a form which highly resembles [[Cape Mario]] from ''[[Super Mario World]]''.
====''Yoshi's Island DS''====
The Super Star reappears in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', having the same effects as in the previous game. They only appear in the levels [[Baby Mario and Baby Peach: Dynamic Duo]], [[Castle of Big Guy the Stilted]], [[Superhard Acrobatics!]] and [[Yoshi's Island Easter Eggs]].
====''Yoshi's New Island''====
{{main|Yoshi Star}}
A similar item, the Yoshi Star, appears in two colors in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''; they both turn Yoshi into [[Super Yoshi (form)|Super Yoshi]]. The yellow ones make him invincible and let him run on walls and ceilings, while the red ones let him blast through enemies and walls for a brief time. Both forms can be prolonged by grabbing more Yoshi Stars of the same color.
===''Mario's Time Machine''===
In ''[[Mario's Time Machine]]'', several Super Stars appear as statues in [[Bowser's Museum]]. Mario can use them as platforms to reach some doors.

In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', the [[Princess Peach]] statue in [[Toad Harbor]] can be seen holding a Star in its raised right hand. Additionally, in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', if the player has purchased the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]] DLC or currently has a [[Nintendo Switch#Nintendo Switch Online|Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack]] membership, a small icon of a Star can be seen next to the version number on the game's title screen.

Unlike in previous installments, Stars themselves do not appear as collectible Item Box items in regular single-player races in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. Instead, getting a [[Frenzy]] has the same effects as using a Star, with the same invincibility music from ''Mario Kart 8'' playing, while its icon appears on-screen if another racer behind the player is in Frenzy mode. Stars found in Item Boxes appear in multiplayer mode when the rules have less than three item slots, as frenzies are unobtainable then. Stars are also found in certain challenges, first found in the Break Item Boxes challenge of the [[List of tours in Mario Kart Tour#Tokyo Tour|Tokyo Tour]]'s [[Wendy Cup]]. Once obtained, Stars can be activated by tapping the screen, making the player temporarily invincible. Additionally, if the player is about to receive a High-End driver from a [[Pipe Cannon|pipe]], a Star appears briefly on-screen.

Super Stars have made varying appearances in the [[Mario Golf (series)|''Mario Golf'' series]]. In ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', Super Stars are obstacles appearing only on [[Peach's Castle Grounds]], where they also appear as tee markers. In ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', Super Stars appear on certain Star Courses, and whenever one is hit, the player becomes "invincible" against whatever their current ball lie is, and the ball acts as if it were on the optimum playing surface. In ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'', when Mario or Gold Mario gets a [[Birdie]] or better in this game, his post-hole animation involves him grabbing a Star and running while invincible and then striking a pose. Also, when he gets an [[Eagle]] in this game, he grabs a star, defeats a few enemies, and jumps. This item is also used as tee markers in the [[Mario's Star (golf course)|Mario's Star]] course. A clothing set, golf ball, and set of golf clubs are designed based on the item, and are available for Miis to use. In ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]'', [[Mario]] uses the Super Star to transform into Rainbow Mario during his special shot, the Super Star Strike. Additionally, Super Stars are used during the Super Star Rush event in the Battle Golf mode.

Only one Super Star appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'' in the form of a [[Papercraft]] item. Before the fight with Papercraft King Boo, the trio upon Papercraft Yoshi can find a floating Super Star and by using its tongue, they can pull it in and use it. While under the effects of the Super Star, Papercraft Yoshi can defeat enemies instantly, but it automatically wears off after all nearby Papercraft Goombas are defeated. The ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' version of the invincibility theme plays while in use. The Super Star does not reappear in the [[Battle Ring (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|Battle Ring]] version of the fight. In addition, the Super Star is the icon of the Star Rank once more.
