Wire Traps are obstacles in the Game Boy version of ''Donkey Kong''. They are first seen in [[Stage 1-3]]. Wire Traps travel from the left to the right of their wire, disappearing once they reach the end, and spawn at regular intervals. Upon contact, Wire Traps can shock [[Mario]] and cause him to lose a life. They resemble balls with four diagonal needle-like protrusions that constantly emit electricity between them in a pattern resembling that of a {{wp|Electric arc#Visual entertainment|Jacob's ladder}}.

Wire Traps are obstacles in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They are encountered in [[Bianco Hills]] and [[Noki Bay]]. Wire Traps are either red or blue in color and resemble spiral-shaped seashells that are covered in spikes. Glowing sparks of electricity emit from their centers as they cling to a wire and move along it by spinning themselves. Red ones are the most common, and they normally grow from a funnel on one side, travel to the other, and then disappear. However, ones found in Noki Bay instead slowly follow Mario along the rope. Blue Wire Traps, also exclusive to Noki Bay, are bigger and much slower than their red counterparts, and they constantly go back and forth between ends of the rope without disappearing. If Mario touches a Wire Trap, he will get burned and may fall off the rope. The player can slightly hinder the Wire Traps' progress by spraying water on them with [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]]. The only way to avoid them is to [[jump]] over them. As they move, they make a low chirping noise, similar to that of a real-life hermit crab.

Wire Traps are obstacles in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' and [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They are first encountered in [[Level 1-4 (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)|Level 1-4]]. Wire Traps travel through wires periodically, similarly as in ''Donkey Kong'', and retain their ability to shock Mario upon contact, which causes him to lose a life.
