[[Mario]] bounces up and down infinitely while on top of one, and can achieve greater vertical movement if the jump button is pressed as he's being launched upward. | ||

Two of the e-Reader card levels in [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|the GBA remake]] consist entirely of Jump Blocks: [[Magical Note Blocks]] and [[A Musical Trek]]. | |||

However, they retain their original designs, and most of them are two blocks wide (though in the box art and in certain courses, they retain their earlier proportions).

Magic Note Blocks return and are renamed Super Note Blocks; they once again send Mario to a Coin Heaven area, but now are twice as long, flash colors, and have a white note on their sides. | ||
