Luigi having activated the first Switch-Lift inSwitch-Lift Express

Switch-Lifts are a special type oflift appearing exclusively inNew Super Luigi U, serving as the main focus of the levelSwitch-Lift Express. There are roughly a dozen throughout the stage, most of them being of different sizes. However, they all have an orange? Switch on or next to them activating some sort of mechanism or event, usually quite quickly, when activated themselves. This often means moving the attached platform so as to progress through thelevel.

The first Switch-Lift appears immediately after the underground sub-area is entered, and it is very long. Pressing the switch causes it to be launched to the right. The next, smaller Switch-Lifts simply clear the path if the firstStar Coin is not collected.Luigi can use the following lifts to get overPiranha Plants, before reaching a square lift allowing him to collect a load ofcoins. The final Switch-Lift in the level is mandatory for exiting the sub-area and completing the level.
