'''Bonus Points''' are special points found in the game ''[[Super Mario World]]''. They are earned by touching the goal post. (More Bonus Points are given depending on the height of the goal tape when Mario breaks it.) These Bonus Points are saved from level to level, and earning 100 of them will let Mario or Luigi go to a bonus [[mini-game]] where they can earn [[1-Up Mushroom]]s.

Mario collects 50 Goal Stars.
Mario collecting 50 Goal Stars

Goal Stars,[1] also known as Gold Stars,[2] Goalpost Stars,[3] Bonus Stars,[4] or simply Stars,[3] are special points in Super Mario World and its Game Boy Advance version. They are earned by touching the moving tape on a Giant Gate. The higher Mario or Luigi touches it, the more Goal Stars he gets (from one to 30, then 40, then 50 at the top). Getting all 50 of a Giant Gate's Goal Stars gives Mario or Luigi three 1-Ups. If Mario or Luigi does not touch the tape, he will get only a coin from the tape. Goal Stars are saved from level to level, and earning 100 of them lets Mario or Luigi go to the bonus game, where he can earn 1-Up Mushrooms.

Goal Stars appear in Super Mario World-themed levels in the Super Mario Maker games, though for visual effect only, so they are not counted to the score, though the "50" reward is replaced with a "1UP" reward.
