In the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, there is a type of '''floor''' or '''platform'''<ref>{{cite|author=Rocha, Garitt, and Nick von Esmarch|title=''Playing With Power: Nintendo NES Classics''|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=November 11, 2016|isbn=9780744017779|language=en-us|page=53–58}}</ref> 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. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' and has occurred commonly within the franchise, most notably through [[? Block]]s and [[Brick Block]]s, which can act as described. This article notes more generic instances of this mechanic.

==History==
===''Mario Bros.''===
[[File:MarioBrosAC.png|thumb|Screenshot of ''Mario Bros.'']]
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 [[coin]]s 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 [[Mario Bros. (Super Mario Bros. 3)|battle mode]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the [[Battle Game (Super Mario All-Stars)|Battle Game]] in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', the [[Mario Bros. (Game Boy Advance)|remake]] in the [[Super Mario Advance (series)|''Super Mario Advance'' games]] and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', and the game ''[[Luigi Bros.]]'' in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|port]].

===''Super Mario'' series===
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
Floors reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', behaving the same as in their debut game. They appear in [[World 2-2 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-2]] and [[World 8-6 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-6]].

====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
'''Red and white platforms'''<ref>[[Screwtop It Up]] video description in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''.</ref> return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and their [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|enhanced port]]. They are the same as before. Red and white platforms appear in [[Screwtop Tower]], [[Shifting-Floor Cave]], and {{world-link|coin|2|World Coin-2 (New Super Mario Bros. U)}} in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' and in [[Sumo Bro's Spinning Tower]] in ''New Super Luigi U''.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
Floors appear in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] in the [[Mario Bros. (stage)|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.
