It has been requested that this article be rewritten and expanded to include more information.
Elevators are obstacles in a few games. They are simply platforms which go up or down. Some go up and down automatically, while others are controlled by the player by pressing up or down.
History
Donkey Kong series
In Donkey Kong, two sets of elevators appear in 75m: one set going up, the other set going down. Elevators appear to work via a chain-like mechanism. When an elevator reaches the end of its path, it disappears, and a new one appears at the beginning of the path, as opposed to a single elevator going up and down.
Elevators also appeared in the Game Boy version of Donkey Kong.
In Donkey Kong Country, many steel elevators are present in the level Elevator Antics. They can go both up or down.
In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. In this game, they are wooden planks. Some are activated when Dixie Kong or Kiddy Kong ride them, and some are activated automatically.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong series
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
Elevators similar to the ones from Donkey Kong re-appeared in Mario vs. Donkey Kong. Some of these elevators' directions can be changed by jumping on a switch.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis
Elevators can be used by Mini Marios in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis. They are first introduced in Mushroom Mayhem, Room 1-5, and then begin to appear in later levels in the game.
The object has an attached platform connected onto the level pole. In addition, it also features a button that has two red arrows facing away vertically.
To use them, the toy has to get onto an elevator first by guiding with the player's stylus to get onto it. Then the player has to use the button by using the stylus to tap on one of the two arrows if the elevator would elevate or rise down. Once tapped, the elevator cannot be interrupted by tapping on the button again until it reaches to a certain level to stop on. In addition on using them, the elevator can hold up to just about two Mini-Marios.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, elevators also appear, in the Subspace Emissary. They can be moved up or down by the player ducking or jumping.
Elevators also appear in the stage 75m. They act exactly the same as they do in the original Donkey Kong due to the stage being an exact remake of how the level was.
Super Mario series
Super Mario Bros.
Elevators are common in some levels of Super Mario Bros., first appearing in World 1-2. Some elevators move horizontally.
Super Mario 64
There are also uncontrollable elevators in the Hazy Maze Cave and Wet-Dry World. A special elevator is used in the Elevate For 8 Red Coins mission, in Hazy Maze Cave. Mario can control it stepping on arrow pads.
Super Mario Galaxy 2
In Super Mario Galaxy 2, elevators appear as yellow platforms that bring Mario up, than flash blue and disappear. They can't be controlled by the player. They appear in Sky Station Galaxy and giant versions in Supermassive Galaxy.
Super Mario 3D Land
Elevators have appeared in the Nintendo 3DS game, Super Mario 3D Land, having the same design and function as that of Super Mario Galaxy 2. However, they never disappear, unlike the previous game.
Paper Mario series
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
In Poshley Heights, Riverside Station, and the X-Naut Fortress, Elevator Keys are usually required to use them. When entered, the game sometimes asks which floor the player wants to travel to. Then, a brief cutscene kicks in which shows Mario and his partners in the elevator, after which they are let off.
Super Paper Mario
A few elevators are found in The Bitlands, from Super Paper Mario. This time, they're pixelated and resemble the yellow ones found in Super Mario Bros.. Elevators from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door also return, in Flipside and Fort Francis.
