It shares its stats with the Wario Wing, Waddle Wing, Plane Glider, Gold Glider, and Paper Glider. Mario's Super Glider appears on the logo of the sponsor Dream Gliders.

Mario Kart Tour
The Super Glider returns in Mario Kart Tour, where it serves as the starting glider. It is classified as a Normal glider despite its namesake, and retains its appearance from Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The Super Glider offers better chances of obtaining Mushrooms from Item Boxes and increases the number of points earned for using them. The game introduces five variants of this glider: the Droplet Glider, Le Tricolore, Piston Glider, Safety Glider, and Mushroom Glider. The Gold Glider also serves as a variant to this glider. It is the only available glider in several bonus challenges. The color of the Super Glider matches with the color of the Pipe Frame, which is determined by the driver. Due to the existence of a separate Gold Glider, drivers of gold Pipe Frames, excluding Gold Mario, use black Super Gliders for their karts.

Super Mario Maker
The Super Glider makes a small appearance in Super Mario Maker, being seen in the jumping sprite for the Costume Mario costume Kart Mario.
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam
The Super Glider is shown on three Character Cards in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. One of them is a Luigi card that shows the Mario Kart 7 artwork of him gliding, and can be used in a battle to raise a character's speed by 35% for a limited time. Another card is a Peach Card that shows a different Mario Kart 7 artwork of her gliding, and can be used to enable the character with the highest attack power to act first in a battle, also for a limited time. The last card is a Luigi + Bowser Duo Card that features the same artwork of Luigi as previously and has the same effects as the aforementioned Peach Card.
