Roto-Discs are found orbiting gray or red orbs, on which it is possible for [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] to stand. Roto-Discs are nearly invulnerable; they can be destroyed if [[Statue Mario]] lands on top of one. '''Duo-Roto-Discs'''<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13|page=59|date=June 1990|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> can also be found, and they consist of two Roto-Discs circling the central orb. If the player destroys one, the other disappears.

Roto-Discs make their only other appearance in the [[Mini-Mario (form)|Mini-Mario]] course of [[Bowser's Castle]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. As a throwback to the previous games, they are obstacles that send Mario back to the beginning of the area if they connect with him.

''[[Super Mario Land]]'' contains similar [[Roto Disc (Super Mario Land)|Roto Disc]]s that similarly orbit a [[block]] and share the same attack pattern. ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'' also contains an enemy known as a [[satellite]] in the [[Mario Zone]], and it behaves in a similar fashion.
