| Binoculars in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' can be stepped on from a green platform, allowing Mario to take a look through the lens and get a view of the whole area. The binoculars are controlled by moving the [[Nintendo 3DS]] around using its gyro-sensor control, and the player can press {{button|3ds|L}} or {{button|3ds|R}} to zoom out and zoom in, respectively. The player can also look for hidden [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, and if the Toads are sighted, they will throw out items such as [[Star Medal]]s, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, or even [[Super Star]]s. The camera can also be moved about using the {{button|3ds|Stick}} on the 3DS. The image within the binoculars appears as 2D even if 3D is turned on.

| There is a possibility that a white [[UFO]] can be spotted in certain levels such as [[World 1-3 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 1-3]], though it eventually disappears from sight via the binoculars.<ref>{{cite|author=GSD3DS|date=December 22, 2011|url=youtu.be/WysjrJRbC1w|title=Super Mario 3D Land - UFO in world 1-3|publisher=YouTube|language=en|accessdate=July 6, 2024}}</ref>

| ====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', a [[Sprixie]] holding a pair of orange binoculars appears in certain points of the levels, indicated with a round white platform. Once the player(s) step(s) on that platform, the camera shifts towards the direction of the [[Goal Pole]], as the Sprixie looks through the binoculars. While these spots are referred to as binoculars in the [[Prima Games]] guide, there are differences compared to binoculars in other games: The player(s) cannot zoom in or out, and can only move the camera angle along a fixed plane.

| ====''Super Mario Odyssey''====

| |
| Binoculars return in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. Here, Mario uses them by [[capture|capturing]] them with [[Cappy]]. Once done, the binoculars launch upward from their base then stop at a set altitude due to being tethered by a thin cord. Then Mario can view more of the area he is in. The location of the current [[mission|objective]] is highlighted, with a rectangular box stating its name positioned just above the location or [[Power Moon]]. In some kingdoms, a peculiar flying object (such as the [[Sphynx]] or a [[taxi]]) can be spotted in the sky, and zooming onto it with the binoculars makes a Power Moon appear. The Binoculars switch directly to looking at that Power Moon. If the player looks into the Sun by using the binoculars, Cappy tells the player to stop. Looking at the [[Moon]] has Cappy admire the view. If the player looks at the roof of [[Peach's Castle]], Cappy mentions the [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]] on the roof. A number of other context sensitive responses can occur, such as one for the [[Broodals]]' [[airship]].

| In this game, binoculars resemble [[R.O.B.]]'s head. Their model shows them having no eyes, instead glass as binoculars usually have. However, they actually do have eyes, but underneath the glass in their model.<ref>{{cite|url=x.com/MarioBrothBlog/status/1317884207847378944|title=The Binoculars in Super Mario Odyssey do not visibly gain Mario's eyes when captured; however, the eyes are actually present under the opaque lenses, just not visible. The Art of Super Mario Odyssey book also shows the eyes, meaning they were covered up during development.|publisher=Twitter|date=October 18, 2020|language=en|accessdate=July 6, 2024}}</ref>

| Binoculars appear in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. While they do not appear in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', the [[Goomba Spotting]] [[minigame]] (also returning in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'') appears to be viewed from the perspective of a pair of binoculars, except during the ending. Binoculars from ''Super Mario 3D Land'' are used in the minigame [[Point 'n' Shoot]] in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]''.

| Several sets of binoculars exist in the [[Super Nintendo World]] themed lands that use augmented reality to superimpose animated characters onto the landscape of the park.

Here, Mario uses them by [[capture|capturing]] them with [[Cappy]], and they launch upward a set distance (due to being tethered by a thin cord) before usage, allowing Mario to view more of the area he's in.
