In ''Super Mario 64'', their hue is plum, while in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', they are dark brownish-red. They are found in a majority of the game's courses. Though their exact effect varies from course to course, the most common effects are making a set of breakable platforms appear and making unnavigable terrain passable, such as turning a steep slope into a staircase. With very few exceptions, the effect of a Purple Switch is temporary. A ticking sound indicates that the switch is still in effect, and it gets more rapid as the effect is about to expire. The remake introduces a yellow star-shaped variant called a [[Star Switch]]. | |||
''[[Super Mario 64]]'' features two types of ! Switches. '''Purple Switches'''<ref> | |||
[[Cap Switch]]es have a dome shape like the ! Switches from ''Super Mario World''. The red one appears on the [[Tower of the Wing Cap]], the green one appears in the [[Behind the Waterfall|Cavern of the Metal Cap]], and the blue one appears in [[The Secret Under the Moat|Vanish Cap Under the Moat]].

They can be carried similarly to the [[P Switch|Switch Block]]s of ''Super Mario World'', and, when pressed, turn the Dotted-Line Blocks into ! Blocks for several seconds, similarly to the ''Yoshi'' series. Unlike Switch Blocks, they can be pressed more than once, and can even be carried while they are pressed. However, Mario is unable to use [[Triangular Block]]s while carrying an ! Switch. | ||

Pressing these switches also occasionally causes a warp to a bonus area to appear, indicated by a red arrow above it. ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' instead features the [[?

Switches appear periodically in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', where they are circular, flat-topped, and green.

Mario can use the switch as many times as needed; once Mario gets all the Red Coins in time, he obtains a [[Power Star]], and the deactivated switch is changed into a Red [[!
