'''Blocks'''<ref>"''Press the Z button while jumping to squash enemies or to destroy blocks.''" - ''Super Mario 64'' English instruction booklet, pg. 15</ref> are, as the name entails, plain-looking [[Block]]s that first appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. They are scattered throughout the game's various worlds and can be broken by most of [[Mario]]'s attacks. Some of them contain three [[Coin]]s, but this is rather uncommon and most are empty. In this game, they look identical to the game's throwable [[Crate]]s, though they are much larger. Unlike Crates, they cannot be thrown, though Mario is able to stand on top of them. Blocks are occasionally activated by red floor switches in worlds such as [[Wet-Dry World]] and [[Dire, Dire Docks]]. In these cases, the blocks are always empty and they are used more as platforms than containers.

In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', a remake of ''Super Mario 64'', Blocks are redesigned, now appearing similar to [[Brick Block]]s and no longer sharing their cork-like texture with [[Crazed Crate]]s. They are also much more common than before. Some Blocks now contain [[Super Mushrooms]], but this is quite rare. [[Yoshi]] cannot break Blocks with any of his attacks unless he has already used a Super Mushroom.

In ''[[Mario Party]]'', Blocks appear in the [[minigame]] [[Box Mountain Mayhem]]. The goal of this minigame is to destroy as many Blocks as possible, as many of them contain Coins and [[Coin Bag]]s. However, among the large "mountain" of blocks, there are also Crazed Crates disguised as these Blocks, which will move the characters who attack them away from the mountain.

-In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', "block" is now used as an umbrella term for several similar objects.<ref name=DS>{{cite|title=''Super Mario 64 DS'' instruction booklet|page=28|date=2004|language=en|publisher=Nintendo of America}}</ref> The functional equivalents to the original blocks are known as '''Bricks'''<ref name=DS/> and have an appearance similar to orange [[Brick Block|brick block]]s, no longer sharing their cork-like texture with Crates. They are also much more common than before. Some Bricks contain [[Super Mushroom|mushroom]]s, but this is quite rare. Mario, [[Luigi]], and [[Wario]] can also break Bricks, but [[Yoshi]] cannot break them with any of his attacks unless he has eaten a mushroom. In addition, '''Black Bricks'''<ref name=DS/> are introduced as a variant of block that can be broken only by Wario. However, any player character can break them with the help of a mushroom. The other two types of block are the Crate and the [[Ice Block|Ice]]. Despite the original design not appearing in the game, it can be seen in reused artwork of Mario's actions in the manual.

-Boxes appear in ''[[Mario Party]]'' as part of the minigame [[Box Mountain Mayhem]]. The goal is to destroy as many boxes as possible, with many of them containing coins and [[coin bag]]s. There are also [[Crazed Crate|Whomp Block]]s disguised as these boxes, which move the characters who attack them away from the "mountain" of boxes.
-In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', in the [[Throwback Galaxy]], the blocks from the original [[Whomp's Fortress]] have been replaced by functionally identical crates.
