They replace the [[Goal Pole]]s and roulette [[Goal (Super Mario Bros. 3)|goal]]s from the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' series and look similar to the smaller [[Midway Gate]]s—however, the '''tape''' (or '''Tape''')<ref name=NP28/> between the two blue-and-white-striped posts moves up and down. When [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] hits the tape, he not only finishes the level but also gets [[Goal Star|Bonus Star]]s. The higher the tape is when hit, the more Bonus Stars he gets (ranged from one to 30, then 40, and then 50 at the top) per gate. 100 of them give the player access to a [[bonus game (Super Mario World)|bonus game]]. | ||
