In the Super Mario franchise, there is a type of floor or platform[1] that players can jump into from below to bend or dislodge it briefly in that spot, stunning or defeating any enemy located on top of that portion of the platform. This gameplay mechanic was introduced in Mario Bros. and has occurred commonly within the franchise, most notably through ? Blocks and Brick Blocks, which can act as described. This article notes more generic instances of this mechanic.

History[edit]

Mario Bros.[edit]

Floors appear as the main platforms used in Mario Bros. While they function as normal platforms when the player stands on them, the player can also bump them from below to stun enemies and collect coins on the place where the platform was bumped. Their appearance changes depending on the phase, and there are also slippery and invisible versions.

Floors reprise their roles in the various in-game ports of Mario Bros., including the battle mode in Super Mario Bros. 3, the Battle Game in Super Mario All-Stars, the remake in the Super Mario Advance games and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, and the game Luigi Bros. in Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port.

Super Mario series[edit]

New Super Mario Bros.[edit]

Floors reappear in New Super Mario Bros., behaving the same as in their debut game. They appear in World 2-2 and World 8-6.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]

Red and white platforms[2] return in New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U, and their enhanced port. They are the same as before. Red and white platforms appear in Screwtop Tower, Shifting-Floor Cave, and World Coin-2 in New Super Mario Bros. U and in Sumo Bro's Spinning Tower in New Super Luigi U.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

Floors appear in the Super Smash Bros. series in the Mario Bros. stage introduced in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and returning in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. They function the same as in the original arcade game. Bumping the platform while an opponent is on top bumps them into the air with no damage taken.
