There are also three each in [[World 2-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-3]] and [[World 7-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-3]]: two at the beginning and end of the level, supporting the ends of the [[bridge]], and one in the middle, with the [[checkpoint]] location on top of it. | ||

Islands are also found in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', with their sprite redone to have a more detailed appearance. They appear in many more levels than in ''Super Mario Bros.'', sometimes included in sections that use a variety of platforms. For example, in [[World 2-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 2-3]], they are mixed with [[bridge]]s, and in [[World 5-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 5-3]], they are mixed with [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s and [[Hard Block]]s. | Islands are also found in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', with their sprite redone to have a more detailed appearance.

''The Lost Levels'' includes islands with multiple alternate palettes. In [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 3-3]] and [[World 7-2 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 7-2]], their tops are white and snowy. In [[World 7-3 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 7-3]] and [[World C-3]], the gray palette from ''Super Mario Bros.'' returns. In [[World 9-2 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 9-2]], they have green bases and dark purple tops. Once again, though, ''Super Mario All-Stars'' does not have these palette variations. | ''The Lost Levels'' includes islands with multiple alternate palettes.

In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', islands appear as skins of [[Semisolid Platform]]s in the Ground and Underground themes of the ''Super Mario Bros.'' style. These versions of the platforms have much less overhang; their bases are almost as wide as their tops. A variant where the base is made up of several narrow pillars is also included, which is exclusive to the Ground theme. In the Underground theme, both the base and top of the platforms are colored blue. | In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', islands appear as skins of [[Semisolid Platform]]s in the Ground and Underground themes of the ''Super Mario Bros.'' style.
