| | A '''Glow Block''' ('''Light Block''' in European versions) is an item found in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. As the name suggests, these white blocks emit light that [[Mario]] and the other characters can use to illuminate dark areas. The characters must carry them in order to explore different areas with the help of the block's light. To pick a Glow Block up, the [[player]] must shake the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] and press and hold {{button|wii|1}} at the same time. Glow Blocks are only present in dark and murky areas such as caves or [[Ghost House]]s. They can also be used as a projectile, by throwing the to the enemies, similar fashion to [[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'s physics. |

| '''Light-Up-Lifts''', originally known as '''Light Blocks''',<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Steve|title=''New Super Mario Bros. U'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|page=155|publisher=Prima Games|language=en-us|date=November 18, 2012|isbn=978-0-307-89690-2}}</ref> are [[block]]-like platforms in the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series that debuted in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They occur in underground caves and illuminate the surrounding area when a nearby [[? Switch]] is struck. Light-Up-Lifts are similar to [[Glow Block]]s, identical-looking items also introduced in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' that the player character can carry with them.

| ==History==
| | In addition to normal-sized Glow Blocks, bigger moving varieties also appear. These blocks appear as moving nearly-invisible blocks at first (which look similar to [[Used Block]]s from ''[[Super Mario World]]''), but if Mario or any other character hits a nearby [[? Switch]], the blocks temporarily glow and keep moving. These blocks can be used for both lighting the way and means of transportation. |

| ====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
| |
| In ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', Light Blocks are encountered in {{world link|5|ghosthouse|World 5-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} only, in a pathway to the [[secret exit]]. They appear as moving nearly invisible blocks at first (which look similar to [[Empty Block]]s from ''[[Super Mario World]]''), but if [[Mario]] or any other character hits a nearby ? Switch, the blocks temporarily glow and keep moving. These blocks can be used for both lighting the way and means of transportation. | |
| | |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
| |
| Light Blocks are objects in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'', where they appear in [[Light Blocks, Dark Tower]]. While the Light Blocks in the second half of the course function as they do in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', the Light Blocks in the first half of the course do not require a ? Switch to be activated. Instead, the blocks alternate between glowing state and near-invisible state automatically.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', Light-Up-Lifts appear only in [[Light-Up-Lift Tower]], introducing their current name. In this course, Light-Up-Lifts will light up indefinitely when players move into its vicinity, and the course starts with a pair of always-active Light-Up-Lifts that will move up towards the top when jumping on it, with more Light-Up-Lifts joining in along the way to create a large platform of Light-Up-Lifts.

| |
| In the Super Mario Mash-Up Pack in ''[[Minecraft]]'', Redstone Lamps are replaced by Light-Up-Lifts.
