Border Jump from both the original and the remake

“That's right, it's the border, and since we're the border security, we can't let you in...until you do some jumping worthy of the Mario name!”

—Older Border Bro,Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

TheBorder Jump is aminigame inMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga andits remake. Its name is a play on an expression referring to illegally crossing borders. The Border Jump is hosted by theBorder Bros. in a small tower inBeanbean Borderland, the border between theBeanbean Kingdom and theMushroom Kingdom, lying atStardust Fields. The Border Jump testsMario's andLuigi'sjumping skills. They have to jump over a rope, referred to as the "royal Border Line," while the Border Bros. twirl and swing it in every direction. Mario and Luigi have three lives each in this minigame, and they must complete it to progress through the game.

If the Mario Bros. return to the tower, the Border Bros. ask them to play a more difficult version of Border Jump,Border Jump 2, which, upon being completed, allows them to playSuper Border Jump, thenSuper Border Jump Sunshine. When the latter is beaten, the Mario Bros. can then choose which level of the Border Jump to play. Should they choose "No" if asked to play, the Border Bros. offer them to play theComplete Border Jump, which is made up of the four previous challenges and not chosen from the level selection. After the first mandatory play of the first Border Jump game, Mario and Luigi can winHee Beans by playing it thereafter.

In the background of the room, a picture of an end-of-levelfortress fromSuper Mario Bros. is visible, complete with aflagpole that tracks the Mario Bros.' progress. When the brothers win, a number of points and fireworks appear next to the flagpole in the screenshot.

When this minigame is played, an arrangement of theGround Theme fromSuper Mario Bros. is heard.

The names of the third and fourth levels are very similar to the names of two past games of theSuper Mario franchise,Super Mario Bros. andSuper Mario Sunshine, but simply replacing "Mario Bros."/"Mario" with "Border Jump."
