'''Pendulum Castle''', or '''Superstar Road-8''', is the eighth course of [[Superstar Road]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. It is unlocked when the player collects every [[Star Coin]] in [[Peach's Castle (world)|Peach's Castle]]. This is one of the two castle levels in the game with no boss, the other being [[Red-Hot Elevator Ride]].
'''Pendulum Castle''', or '''Superstar Road-8''', is the eighth course of [[Superstar Road]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. It is unlocked when the player collects every [[Star Coin]] in [[Peach's Castle (New Super Mario Bros. U)|Peach's Castle]]. It is usually considered the game's hardest level.
 
Pendulum Castle is used for two challenges in the game. The first is [[Castle Crawl]], which challenges the player to complete the level without being able to run. The second is [[Cashless Castle Crawl]], which is the same challenge, but also requiring the player to beat the level collecting less than six coins.

The course is based off of the castle levels throughout the game, specifically [[The Final Battle (New Super Mario Bros. U)|The Final Battle]]. The level begins next to a large [[Spinner]] above a pit and platforms made of [[Donut Block]]s. A platform with two [[Bony Beetle]]s and a [[? Block]] is found, along with a smaller Spinner above Donut Blocks. A [[Brick Block]] and another small Spinner are found. The player must cross more Donut Blocks, where they encounter Bony Beetles and a Spinner. A ? Block above a Bony Beetle is encountered before an area with Donut Blocks under multiple Spinners. More Bony Beetles are found in the area. Another Spinner appears before a ? Block and a Brick Block. Some smaller Donut Block platforms must be crossed while avoiding Spinners. A Bony Beetle is found, followed by a large Spinner above some separated Donut Blocks. Another large Spinner is found next to a [[? Switch]], which causes red blocks to appear above the pit below. A [[Warp Pipe]] is then found. Entering the pipe leads to a path of Donut Blocks and the [[Goal Pole]].
The course is based off of the castle levels throughout the game, specifically [[The Final Battle (New Super Mario Bros. U)|The Final Battle]]. The main obstacles throughout the entire course are the Spinners. [[Donut Lift]]s also make up a majority of the platforms in the level.

{|class="wikitable" style="text-align: center"
*'''Star Coin 1''': The first Star Coin is located below a row of Donut Lifts and a pair of Spinners.
|-
*'''Star Coin 2''': Directly after the first Star Coin, the player should wall jump into a hidden area with a [[Warp Pipe]]. In there, the star coin is blocked off by three giant Spinners. The [[Star]] is required in order to safely obtain the second star coin.

*'''Star Coin 3''': At the end of the stage, the player needs to hit an Orange ? Switch to make red blocks appear. These red blocks will allow the player to cross the bottomless pit and reach the final Star Coin.
