Grinders first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' (and its [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|reissue]]) as enemies. Grinders are encountered in some [[Fortress]]es and [[Castle]]s. There are Grinders that travel along [[track]]s, while others travel across the floor. The blades are rather large and cannot be jumped on, although they can be defeated by a [[Slope Slide]] (which displays a [[Glitch|glitchy]] sprite). [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] can also [[Spin Jump]] onto a Grinder, which lets them bounce off it without taking any damage. This obstacle first appears in [[Forest Fortress]] and their only other appearance is in [[6 Wendy's Castle|#6 Wendy's Castle]].
Grinders first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' (and its [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|reissue]]) as enemies. Grinders are encountered in some [[Fortress]]es and [[Castle]]s. There are line-guided Grinders that travel along a dotted line, whilst non-line-guided Grinders travel across the floor. The blades are rather large and cannot be jumped on, although they can be defeated by a [[Slope Slide]] (which displays a [[Glitch|glitchy]] sprite). [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] can also [[Spin Jump]] onto a Grinder, which lets them bounce off it without taking any damage.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', Grinders (referred to as "buzz saws" in the [[Prima Games|Prima]] guide) appear in the [[Puzzle Plank Galaxy]] and the [[Rolling Masterpiece Galaxy]], where they cut through planks of wood in straight lines or large circular patterns, causing both the section of wood and the buzz saw to fall. When Mario traverses certain parts of a planet or comes close to a buzz saw, it starts moving and any enemy that touches it is defeated. Some simply travel along the edges of planets in inset tracks, not actually cutting through anything. [[Garigari Mini]]s also appear in the game, which are smaller versions that are only ever shown cutting in much smaller curved lines.

Grinders appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where they operate on tracks as they did in ''Super Mario World''. They make clock ticking sound effects and can also jump vertically, if the tracks allow them to. Grinders are among the few obstacles in the game that cannot be destroyed by [[Gold Mario]]'s fireballs, though it is possible to destroy a Grinder by touching it as [[White Raccoon Mario]]. They are extremely common throughout {{world link|3|castlen2|World 3-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}, serving as the level's main obstacles. Grinders also appear in {{world link|star|castlen2|World Star-Castle}}, and the [[Third Course (Impossible Pack)|third level]] of the [[Impossible Pack]]. [[Big Grinder]]s also appear in the game.

Grinders appear as obstacles in ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. They can be found staying in one spot, or moving on a [[track]]. Grinders appear in [[Cutting-Edge Spire]] and [[Make the Cut!]]. During a [[Coin Rush (Super Mario Run)|Coin Rush]], stationary Grinders often throw out coins to collect.
