Balance Lifts first | Balance Lifts make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', where they are the main gimmick of [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-3]], [[World 4-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 4-3]] and [[World 6-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 6-3]]. The player is given 1,000 points if they break the lifts. They return in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', where they are more prevalent, being found in eight of the thirteen worlds. This time, they are made of mushrooms instead of metal. However, in the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' remake, both games feature them in their metallic form. | ||
