In the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]], Warp Pipes (usually referred to as simply "pipes") appear as simple obstacles on the courses, especially on the [[Mario Circuit]]s. They act as walls, in that racers who drive into them slow down significantly or even come to a stop; however, the pipes can be taken out by several means, such as hitting them with a powerful item (e.g. a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]]) or driving into them while powered-up by a [[Super Star]], [[Bullet Bill]], or other condition-changing item. [[Piranha Plant]]s can also be in pipes in courses like [[GCN Yoshi Circuit]]. On some occasions, mostly in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', the player can enter a pipe and get warped to another area, which is mainly for the purpose of collecting [[Item Box]]es. This also happens in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', but only in [[Pipe Plaza]], since it is a battle course that originated in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!''.

Within races, pipes appear as obstacles and ramps. In regular races (i.e. not in bonus challenges), those that act as obstacles grant bonus points when taken out. Pipes can also release various things, such as [[Goomba]]s (as seen in [[3DS Toad Circuit|3DS Toad Circuit R/T]]), [[Item Box]]es (in some [[Break Item Boxes]] bonus challenges), [[Wind|air currents]], or [[Current|underwater currents]]. A course themed around Warp Pipes, [[Piranha Plant Pipeline]], debuted in this game during the aptly named [[Pipe Tour]].

The Warp Pipe is a usable item to transport around boards in {{a|MP4|l}}. When a player uses the Warp Pipe, a spinner on the screen appears with the three other opponents' faces. When the player presses {{button|gcn|A}}, it slows down and stops on the icon 225 degrees from when the input was registered.<ref> ZoomZike [https://youtu.be/GfrnM5fk9s4?si=mHvtDUA7SM64eo5m&t=635 Identifying Luck: Mario Party 4] ''YouTube'' </ref> The item will then swap board placements with the player chosen. If a player does not press {{button|gcn|A}} for a minute, the roulette will stop and always land on the opponent on the bottom side. It costs 10 coins to purchase from an [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)|Item Shop]]. Warp Pipes have a variation titled [[tiny pipe]]s, which are obstacles that be entered only by characters in their [[Mini Mario (form)|Mini form]].

*Pipes are often [[lists of references|referenced in other media]], ranging from characters simply sliding down pipes to entering pipes that actively warp them to different areas. An example of the latter is found in ''{{wp|The Simpsons Game}}'', which features a level based on other video games; in multiple parts of this level, the player has to jump into a Warp Pipe to advance further into the level.
