==Gameplay==
[[File:MPL GrassyGreensGrassy Greens.PNGpng|thumb|Gameplay screenshot of Mario in the Grassy Greens Stage]]
''Mario Pinball Land'' is a pinball game featuring ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' elements. The player controls [[Mario]], who takes on the shape and is used as a pinball. The left and right flippers are used to hit Mario. He can earn points by hitting objects and enemies. There are five stages, each separated into a few areas, and they can be traveled to via the [[Sky Cannon]]. If Mario falls down the drain between the flippers at the bottom of a stage, he loses a life. At first, when Mario starts an area, there is a blue [[pipe]] in between the two flippers to protect Mario from falling down. After a certain amount of time, the blue pipe disappears. Every stage (except the Fun Fair) has a few paths, each obstructed by a door which requires a number of [[Power Star|Star]]s to open, like in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Once the door is open, Mario can take the path and continue to the next area. If Mario falls down the drain in a following area, he returns to the previous area, where the enemies and objects are reset.
