'''Bumpers''' are objects that appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' (in version 1.30 or later), ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They serve the same purpose in all appearances so far, bouncing [[Mario]] away when he makes contact with them.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', they appear in the underwater sections of [[World 1-A (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-A]] and [[World 8-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-3]]. They appear as translucent yellow bubbles with an eight-spoked plantlike symbol on or inside them. Bumpers will bounce Mario in the opposite of the direction he ran into them from.

In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' (v1.30 or later) and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', Bumpers can be created by shaking a [[Grinder]] in editing mode. They are donut-shaped balloons that stay still in the air. When Mario jumps on one from above, it can bounce him higher similar to [[trampoline]]s and [[Note Block]]s; if Mario bumps into one from the side or below, it bounces Mario away. Enemies, objects, and projectiles are not affected by Bumpers and will freely pass through them.
In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' (v1.30 or later) and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', Bumpers can be created by shaking a [[Grinder]] in editing mode. Their appearance now resembles that of a torus with eyes. When Mario jumps on one from above, it can bounce him higher similar to [[trampoline]]s and [[Note Block]]s; if Mario bumps into one from the side or below, it bounces Mario away. Enemies and objects are not affected by Bumpers and will freely pass through them.


In the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' game style, Bumpers are striped light and dark green, with eyes similar to that of [[Mr. Eraser]]. In the ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' style, they are checkered green and white similar to the [[Note Block|Jump Block]]s from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', with the same type of eyes. In the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' style, they are white with pink diamonds and beady eyes. In the ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' style, they retain the beady eyes and are yellow with an orange star pattern, resembling [[Lemmy]]'s [[magical ball|ball]]s from the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series.

Bumpers reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' as objects under the Gizmos category, and act and look just like they did back in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]''. They are now separate from Grinders and they are absent in the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' game style.
