Slide Lifts are a type of moving platform that first appeared in New Super Mario Bros. U.
History
New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
Slide Lifts appear in New Super Mario Bros. U and its reissue. Each Slide Lift consists of a pair of horizontal or vertical platforms that travel clockwise or counter-clockwise on a rectangular track set around a nut that is fastened to a fence-like structure that may either be protruding or set in floors, walls, or ceilings. As they move in a rectangular fashion, the pair of platforms slide against each other, hence the contraption's name. While they can help the player progress like other platforms, Slide Lifts can also impede the player by denying them ground to stand on, shifting their position, blocking them and their projectiles (as well as projectiles shot by enemies like Fire Bros), and, in the worst circumstances, even crush the player or enemies caught between them and floors, walls, ceilings, or other Slide Lifts.
A total of 26 pairs of dull-colored Slide Lifts serve as the main feature of Slide Lift Tower of Meringue Clouds, while more vibrantly-colored Slide Lifts appear in the seventh level of Superstar Road, Lakitu! Lakitu! Lakitu!, which, in turn, serves as the setting of the 16th and final Coin Collection challenge, Don't. Touch. Anything., where the player must not only complete the level without touching a single enemy, but also collect, at most, five (bronze), two (silver), or zero (gold) coins. They are one of the few features that didn't return in New Super Luigi U, as Stonecrush Tower, the game's equivalent of Slide Lift Tower, instead features constantly-shifting slabs of stone held together by planks of wood, slightly similar but not analagous to Slide Lifts.
Super Smash Bros. series
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, a giant Slide Lift comprises the tower portion of the stage Mushroom Kingdom U.
