'''Smoke''' appears in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] and [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] as a stage hazard. In these games, when the character walks into smoke, they start to take damage at steady intervals.

In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the smoke clouds, referred to by a warning [[sign]] as '''strange clouds''' in the former and '''strange toxic clouds''' in the latter, appear in the toxic maze in the [[Hazy Maze Cave]]. They also appear in the middle of the [[Goomboss Battle]] stage, exclusively in ''Super Mario 64 DS''. The cloud covers most of the ground in the toxic maze. When [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Wario]], or [[Yoshi]] has his head under the cloud, he loses one wedge of health on his [[Health Meter#Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS|Power Meter]] every two seconds that he is submerged. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', if Mario, Luigi, or Wario does not have his own [[cap]] on, he loses one wedge of his health on the first hit, then loses two wedges of his health on the second hit, and the process repeats. [[Metal Mario]]/Metal Wario and [[Vanish Mario|Vanish Luigi]] are not affected by the cloud, however. In ''Super Mario 64'', the cloud is greenish-yellow. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', it is purple instead and actually knocks the character back a bit.

In ''Super Mario 64'', if Mario stays in the cloud for a period of time without moving, he starts to cough, even as Metal Mario. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', the same alarm sound that plays when a character is low on health underwater or in [[freezing water]] also plays when in the cloud. The coughing sound effect is removed as well; however, characters still appear to cough (unless Luigi and Wario are using their [[Power Flower (Super Mario 64 DS)|Power Flower]] abilities).

In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', the substance, now called smoke by [[Message Block]]s, appears in the [[Fury Volcano]] levels. Its effect on the player is similar to the cloud in ''Super Mario 64 DS'', dealing knockback when it damages the player, though it deals damage at a slower rate. The smoke can be cleared temporarily by using the [[Joy (vibe)|Joy vibe]]'s cyclone to disperse it. The boss of Fury Volcano, [[Wiggler#Super Princess Peach|Wiggler]], can create smoke when its health gets low.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', '''poison clouds'''<ref>{{cite|quote=''Continue to the right and hit the switch to deactivate the poison cloud trap.''|author=Dawson, Bryan|date=2008|title=''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|language=en-us|isbn=978-0-7615-5644-2|page=111}}</ref> appear in {{iw|smashwiki|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary}}. It appears in some of the cave areas and the Great Maze. When the character enters the poison clouds, they incur damage at a much faster rate of about 2% of damage per second. The poison cannot KO the player, since it does not do any knockback, but it actually makes the character more vulnerable to enemy attacks. The player can temporarily clear the poison clouds by hitting a red switch often situated near the clouds.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', '''poisonous clouds''' appear in certain [[spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] battles.
