 ===Bonus Stage===
 [[File:Breakout Mode Screenshot - Pinball.png|thumb|left|200px]]
-In the Bonus Stage, the player controls [[Mario]] carrying a platform. The objective of this mode is to rescue [[Pauline|a lady]] by bouncing the ball off Mario's platform so it passes through [[bingo lamp]]s. If all of the bingo lamps with a certain number become the same color, the floor above the lady decreases in size. If the gaps in the floor become too wide for the lady to jump over, she falls down. Mario must catch the lady using his platform and carry her to one of the exits on either side of the stage. If the lady reaches an exit, she reappears at the top of the screen. If Mario does not catch the lady or she falls off of Mario's platform, the player loses a ball. If the ball falls off the bottom of the screen, it exits the Bonus Stage and is ejected from the hole kicker in Scene A.
