| A '''goal'''<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario Bros. 3'' instruction booklet|page=19|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en|date=1990}}</ref> is an object introduced in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. It is a box found at the end of almost every [[level]], quickly switching between three [[card]]s: a [[Super Mushroom|Mushroom]], a [[Fire Flower|Flower]], and a [[Super Star|Star]]. | |

| ===''Super Mario'' series===
| | The Roulette Box must be hit in order to finish the level. Hitting it will result in getting the item card on the box at the time it is hit. Receiving three cards of any type will result in [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] reciving a [[Extra Life|1-Up]]. However, if three cards of the same type are collected, Mario or Luigi will get a number of 1-ups that correspond to the type of item. Getting three Mushroom cards will result in two extra lives, getting three Fire Flower cards will result in three extra lives, and getting three Star cards will result in five extra lives. In most levels, a Star card can easily be obtained by running at maximum speed and hitting the box at a ninety degree angle. However, this is not achivable in some levels such as [[Grass Land|1-4]] and [[Pipe Maze|7-1]], because the distance is too short to achieve running speed. However, in levels such as these, it is possible to run past it, turn back, and hit it at a 90 degree angle. |

| Goals are objects in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. The player is required to hit a goal to finish the level they are in. When hit, the goal gives them the card on the box at the time it is hit, displaying the message "COURSE CLEAR! YOU GOT A CARD" ("LEVEL CLEARED! YOU GOT A PANEL" in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''). Receiving three cards of any type results in [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] receiving a [[Extra life|1-Up]]. However, if three cards of the same type are collected, Mario or Luigi gets a number of 1-Ups that correspond to the type of item. Getting three Mushroom cards results in two extra lives, getting three Flower cards results in three extra lives, and getting three Star cards results in five extra lives. In most stages, a Star card can easily be obtained by [[dash|running]] at maximum speed and hitting the box at a 45° angle. However, that objective is not achievable in some stages such as [[World 1-4 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 1-4]] and [[World 7-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 7-1]], because the distance is too short to achieve running speed. However, in stages such as those, it is possible to run past the box, turn back, and hit it at a 45° angle.

| In the ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' competitive game, players can steal or exchange cards by [[stomp]]ing on each other, bumping each other from below, or using the [[POW Block]] when the rival is on the [[floor (Mario Bros.)|floor]], making the afflicted player lose a card. | | In 2-player versus mode, players can steal or exchange cards by bumping each other from below which will eject a card from the victim. |

| The ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' style of ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' uses the goals for non-[[Castle]] levels, including [[Airship]]s (which always ended with a boss fight rather than a goal in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' itself). However, as each level is self-contained, they no longer give cards that can be redeemed toward lives—instead, collecting a Mushroom, Flower, or Star simply gives a number of [[point]]s, while [[1-Up Mushroom]]s are added as a fourth card and give an extra life immediately. In levels with clear conditions, the goal appears as a dashed outline and is fully revealed only after the condition has been met; it will become dashed again if the clear condition is lost.

| |
| In ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', the roulette-styled goals are absent from the ''Super Mario Bros. 3''-themed level in the [[Green Energy Plant]], as they were replaced by [[Goal Pole]]s, although the frame of the goal containing the level's green [[Mini Paint Star]] can be found in front of the secret exit.
