Wii'' instruction booklet|page=10}}</ref>) is an object appearing mainly in the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]]. In their appearances, Goal Poles are placed typically at the end of a [[level]], and [[Mario]] or another player character has to [[jump]] at the Flag Pole and grab it to finish the level. The number of [[point]]s the player earns from grabbing the Goal Pole depends on how high they landed on it. Goal Poles first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', and the flags on them come in many colors, though [[Goal Pole (secret)|red Goal Pole]]s usually indicate alternate exits in the [[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|''New Super Mario Bros.'' games]]. Since then, if the player manages to grab the top of a Goal Pole, they will usually earn an [[extra life]]. Goal Poles were replaced by boxed roulette-like [[Goal (Super Mario Bros. 3)|goal]]s in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and [[Giant Gate]]s in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. A Goal Pole symbolizes Mario and friends taking over or claiming that area—taking down [[Bowser]]'s flag and/or replacing it with their own. | ||
