'''Arrow lifts'''<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''New Super Mario Bros. U'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=172 and 173|publisher=Prima Games|language=en-us|date=November 18, 2012|isbn=978-0-307-89690-2}}</ref> are objects in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. These [[platform]]s appear blue when idle but turn red when activated. In ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', an arrow lift is stationary until the player steps on it, in which case an arrow pointing down appears, and the platform moves in that direction. If the player gets off the platform after having moved it from its initial position, the arrow will then point up and the platform will move back to where it started. Arrow lifts appear in [[World 9-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9-2]] and [[World 9-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9-4]]. In ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', they appear in [[Switchback Hill]] as the main gimmick and means of transportation. In ''New Super Luigi U'', they appear in [[Rainbow Skywalk]] as the main gimmick and means of transportation. In those [[level]]s in the latter two games, there are platforms that move left and right, and an arrow appears even when a platform is unused to indicate which direction towards which the platform moves. They also need only one object for them to move instead of multiple. In both games, items such as [[coin]]s and [[Star Coin]]s are able to trigger the platforms as a player would. The platforms also make a small noise when stepped on in this game, which was not present in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.

While arrow lifts do not appear directly in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', or ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', their sound effect while moving forward from ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' is reused in the editor menu when the player sets the direction of certain parts such as [[Warp Pipe]]s, [[Cannon]]s, [[Checkpoint Flag]]s, and [[Bomber Bill|Banzai Bill]]s.
