This article is about the slot machine game from Super Mario Bros. 2. For the bonus game from Yoshi Topsy-Turvy, see Bonus Chance!

The Bonus Chance (also named bonus game, Bonus Stage[1], Slot Machine[2], and Slot Game[3]) is a minigame played at the end of every level in Super Mario Bros. 2, provided Mario or another character has collected at least one coin in Subspace during its first two visits. If they end the course with no coins collected, the Bonus Chance screen displays but the game is immediately skipped.
