Warp Cannons are unlocked by reaching a [[Goal Pole (secret)|secret Goal Pole]] at the end of certain levels.
A '''Warp Cannon''' is a cannon in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' that warps the player to a different world. It is like the [[Warp Zone]], but uses a cannon instead of a pipe. It is entered like a [[Warp Pipe]]. When a warp cannon is used, it stays on the map. It leads the player to a pre-selected world that usually is 3 worlds away from the world where the Warp Cannon was found.

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:NSMBWarp Cannon.PNG|thumb|Screenshot from ''New Super Mario Bros.'', showing the Warp Cannon of World 2]]
Warp Cannons appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' The secret exits in levels {{world link|1|towern|World 1-Tower (New Super Mario Bros.)}} and [[World 2-A (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-A]] unlock a Warp Cannon to [[World 5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5]]; the secret exit of {{world link|3|ghostn|World 3-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros.)}} to [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]], the secret exit of {{world link|4|ghostn|World 4-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros.)}} to [[World 7 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7]], and the secret exit of {{world link|5|ghostn|World 5-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros.)}} to [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]]. Warp Cannons are timed and cannot be exited without using them. The destination world is visible in a Warp Cannon area.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
Warp Cannons look different but function identically in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Both [[World 1-3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 1-3]] and [[World 2-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 2-6]] unlock the Warp Cannon to [[World 5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 5]]; both {{world link|3|ghost|World 3-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} and {{world link|4|tower|World 4-Tower (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} to [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 6]]; and both {{world link|5|ghost|World 5-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}} and [[World 6-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 6-6]] to [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 8]].
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
Warp Cannons are different in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. They are colored blue instead of black. Instead of being a single area with a cannon that fires into the background, Warp Cannons instead point forward. After a countdown, they launch Mario or Luigi forward into a nighttime environment reminiscent of the black backdrop at the end of levels in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. This is a full course, which has to be completed to arrive at the next world. The player character dashes uncontrollably, and there are enemies to avoid along the way. An [[Arrow Sign]] sign at the end pointing right serves as the goal. The character jumps as they leave the screen and arrive in the next world. Every cannon stage has a [[Red Coin]] challenge that unlocks a [[Gold Flower]] when completed. Warp Cannon stages never have [[Assist Block]]s unlike other levels.
 
The courses of Warp Cannons are:
*{{world link|1|cannonn2|World 1-Warp Cannon (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}, accessed from the secret exit of {{world link|1|towern2|World 1-Tower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}} and leading to [[World Mushroom (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Mushroom]]
*{{world link|3|cannonn2|World 3-Warp Cannon (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}}, accessed from the secret exit of {{world link|3|towern2|World 3-Tower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)}} and leading to [[World Flower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Flower]]
*{{world link|mushroom|cannonn2|World Mushroom-Warp Cannon}}, accessed from {{world link|mushroom|B|World Mushroom-B}} and leading to [[World Flower (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Flower]]
*{{world link|flower|cannonn2|World Flower-Warp Cannon}}, accessed from {{world link|flower|A|World Flower-A}} and leading to [[World 6 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 6]]
 
Additionally, Warp Cannons appear in some of the game's DLC courses. Those courses are the [[Third Course (Nerve-Wrack Pack)|third course]] of the [[Nerve-Wrack Pack]] and the [[First Course (Gold Classics Pack)|first course]] of the [[Gold Classics Pack]]. While still having the same gameplay, they do not have to use the same environment design.
 
===''Mario Sports Mix''===
Warp Cannons appear in ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]''. They launch the player character in alternate routes to other areas in the [[Flower Cup]] tournament.
 
===''Fortune Street''===
Cannons in ''[[Fortune Street]]'' are used on the [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]], [[Delfino Plaza]], and [[Bowser's Castle]] boards to blast the player character to another square also having a character.
