Lever Switch
It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
Levers appear throughout the Mario series to trigger special events when pulled, pushed, or simply hit.
Appearances
Donkey Kong
In Donkey Kong for the Game Boy, levers control conveyor belts, moving platforms and elevators. They can also make bridges appear and disappear and open and close gates. The player can pull levers by walking to them and holding B while moving Mario with the d-pad into the desired direction. In some boss levels, Donkey Kong Jr. will also operate levers to hinder Mario's progress.
Super Mario Galaxy
In Super Mario Galaxy, Mario can activate levers by using the Star Spin. Levers make certain things occur, such as turning on the swinging light in the Ghostly Galaxy's mansion, and activating the hovering platform in Bowser Jr.'s Airship Armada. Levers are uncommon in this game.
