They are activated by [[jump]]ing on them. Upon activation, they turn all [[Brick Block]]s from an area into [[coin]]s and vice-versa for approximately 10 seconds. On some occasions, they likewise cause arrays or groups of [[Blue Coin]]s to appear onscreen. As these effects are temporary, they are usually accompanied by a characteristic jingle or clock-ticking that marks their duration. Some P Switches cause a [[P Warp Door]] to appear. | ||
