'''Arrow Signs''' are a method of directing the player in several ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as a sign with an arrow on it and a patch of grass below.

Arrow Signs made their debut in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. The first use of the Arrow Sign was in [[Yoshi's Island 1]] near the [[Giant Gate]]. In general, they are placed near the end of levels in which they appear, signaling that the Giant Gate is nearby.

Arrow Signs appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', taking an appearance similar to that of ''Super Mario 64''{{'}}s.

====''Super Mario Galaxy'' / ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====

Arrow Signs are blue arrows with red outlines in these games.

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====

In the ''Bowser's Fury'' campaign of ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', Arrow Signs decorated with leaves and cat ears can be found throughout [[Lake Lapcat]]. Many are located on walls rather than exclusively on the ground; these Arrow Signs cannot be broken. If an Arrow Sign on the ground is broken, it will only reappear if Mario leaves the radius of the island the Arrow Sign was on. In this mode, they can also be broken by [[Bowser Jr.]]'s [[Magic Paintbrush]].

====''Super Mario Maker'' / ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Super Mario Maker 2''====

Two kinds of Arrow Signs appear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its 3DS port]] and [[Super Mario Maker 2|its sequel]]. The traditional Arrow Sign seen in previous ''Super Mario'' games always appears at the start of every level, with the ''Super Mario World'', ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' and ''Super Mario 3D World'' ones retaining their original designs in their respective game styles, and cannot be removed. The second is a course part that can be placed, but unlike regular Arrow Signs, it does not have a post or backboard and instead is just a plain red or wooden arrow, depending on the game style. Arrow Signs can be rotated in eight different directions. A maximum of 100 Arrow Signs can be placed in an area. When an Arrow Sign is shaken in the first game, it turns into a [[Checkpoint Flag]]. They cannot be placed in any solid block except [[Ice Block]]s in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style. In the first game, they are unlockable, being one of the later parts unlocked, and in the second, they are classified as gizmos.

[[Arrow field|Special kinds of Arrow Signs]] appear in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' in several courses included in the [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]. These arrows resemble holographic images, and when driven through, [[Lakitu]] carries the player back on the road. They only appear on courses that change route in different laps, such as {{classic-link|Tour|Paris Promenade}} or {{classic-link|N64|Kalimari Desert}}.

Arrow Signs can be found in games such as ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', where they are usually placed at the start of levels or new areas to direct players in which direction to move. In ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'', they can be found in certain areas to direct players. ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' features arrow signs that are made of red fabric with stitched edges set in bobby pins and hanging from transparent strings.
