{{item infobox
The '''! Switch''' was first seen in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. The switches come in four colors, Yellow, Green, Blue and Red. When activated, they  make [[! Block]]s of the corresponding color whole (and, therefore, usable). They have the same purpose in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''.

[[File:SMWswitches.png|frame|left|The four big switches from ''Super Mario World'']]
In ''Super Mario World'' and [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|its reissue]], in each of the four [[Switch Palace]]s, there is a ! Switch (simply referred to as a "'''big switch'''" in the manual<ref>{{cite|title=''Super Mario World'' English instruction booklet|page=21}}</ref> and also known as a '''Switch'''<ref>{{cite|date=September 1991|title=''Nintendo Power'' Volume 28|page=14 and 22|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref>) of a different color, either the '''Yellow Switch''',<ref>{{cite|title=''[[Mario Mania]]'' Player's Guide|date=August 1991|page=56|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> the '''Green Switch''',<ref>{{cite|title=''[[Mario Mania]]'' Player's Guide|date=August 1991|page=67|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> the '''Red Switch''',<ref>{{cite|title=''[[Mario Mania]]'' Player's Guide|date=August 1991|page=82|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> or the '''Blue Switch'''<ref>{{cite|title=''[[Mario Mania]]'' Player's Guide|date=August 1991|page=108|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> in that order, that permanently turns every [[Dotted-Line Block]] of the same color into an [[! Block|Exclamation Mark Block]] of the same color. In the original game, if the player presses {{button|snes|B}} on the same frame that one of these switches is pressed, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] will jump off the switch as it is pressed, remaining in midair as gameplay pauses to display the Switch Palace's congratulatory message.<ref>{{cite|date=February 12, 2022|url=smwspeedruns.com/Yump|title=Yump|publisher=Super Mario World Speedrunning Wiki|accessdate=July 17, 2023|archive=web.archive.org/web/20230717232545/https://smwspeedruns.com/Yump}}</ref>

They are later found in the ''[[Paper Mario]]'' series. This time, the switches only appear red or blue. Blue switches can only be used once, and normally open passages of some kind. Red switches can be used an unlimited amount of times, and are normally used for moving important object. However, the red ! Switches found in the [[Palace of Shadow]] in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' are the only red ! Switches that can only be used once to move a wheel allowing [[Mario]] and his friends to get to the [[Shadow Queen]]'s throne room and crypt.
====''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''====
[[File:SM64 Purple Switch.png|thumb|left|A Purple Switch from ''Super Mario 64'']]
[[File:NSMB Unused Purple Switch.png|thumb|A Switch from ''Super Mario 64 DS'']]
''[[Super Mario 64]]'' features two types of ! Switches. '''Purple Switches'''<ref>{{cite|date=1996|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|title=''[[Super Mario 64]]'' Player's Guide|page=18}}</ref> (or '''Purple Exclamation Switches''')<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|language=en-us|archive=web.archive.org/web/19980224211156/http://www.nintendo.com/n64/super_mario64/bowser1.html|title="Bowser in the Dark World" ''Nintendo: Super Mario 64 Strategy|publisher=nintendo.com|accessdate=March 15, 2022}}</ref> are flat and rectangular in shape. In ''Super Mario 64'', their hue is plum, while in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', they are dark brownish-red. They are found in a majority of the game's courses. Though their exact effect varies from course to course, the most common effects are making a set of breakable platforms appear and making unnavigable terrain passable, such as turning a steep slope into a staircase. With very few exceptions, the effect of a Purple Switch is temporary. A ticking sound indicates that the switch is still in effect, and it gets more rapid as the effect is about to expire. The remake introduces a yellow star-shaped variant called a [[Star Switch]].


In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', there are also "simul-switches" (two must be hit at the same time) and "counted switches" (must be hit a certain number of times). There are also black and white ! Switches found in [[the Great Tree]]. [[Mario]] and company pushed the black switch to reveal four white ! Switches in the room where Mario found the blue key to free the other [[Puni]]es. Mario had to hit the white ! Switches in this order: [[sun]], [[moon]], Puni and [[star]] to retrieve the [[Super Boots]].
[[Cap Switch]]es have a dome shape like the ! Switches from ''Super Mario World''. The red one appears on the [[Tower of the Wing Cap]], the green one appears in the [[Behind the Waterfall|Cavern of the Metal Cap]], and the blue one appears in [[The Secret Under the Moat|Vanish Cap Under the Moat]]. Like in ''Super Mario World'', these cause [[Cap Block]]s of the same color to solidify, allowing players to use the [[cap]] power-ups in courses. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', the Cap Switches were changed from three colored ! Switches to one red [[? Switch]].


In ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]'', a Red ! Switch appears in each world. If [[Mario]] hits one of these switches hard enough, 8 [[Red Coin]]s pop out and have been landed in almost every area in the world. Mario has to find 8 Red Coins around the world within the time limit. Hitting the switch is worth 3000 points as it is used. If Mario didn't get all the Red Coins, Mario has another chance to get all the Red Coins. But if Mario gets all the Red Coins on time, the deactivated switch is changed into a Red [[! Block]] and Mario obtains a [[Power Star]].
====''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
[[File:SMA4 ! Switch sprite.png|frame|left]]
In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', small yellow !-Switches appear in three [[World-e]] levels: [[Doors o' Plenty]], [[A Sky-High Adventure]], and [[Sea to Sky]]. They can be carried similarly to the [[P Switch|Switch Block]]s of ''Super Mario World'', and, when pressed, turn the Dotted-Line Blocks into ! Blocks for several seconds, similarly to the ''Yoshi'' series. Unlike Switch Blocks, they can be pressed more than once, and can even be carried while they are pressed. However, Mario is unable to use [[Triangular Block]]s while carrying an !-Switch.


{{SM64 Items and Courses}}
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[Category:Items]]
[[File:NSMBDS Exclamation Switch.png|frame|left]]
[[Category:Objects]]
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', the ! Switch has many of the same functions as that of the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]]. All of the ! Switches in the game are red and turn Dotted-Line Blocks into solid [[Red Block]]s. Unlike switches in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', the switches are only temporary and mainly help the player get through obstacles and to [[Star Coin]]s.
 
The Purple Switch from ''Super Mario 64'' was also originally intended to appear in this game, but went [[List of New Super Mario Bros. pre-release and unused content|unused]].
 
====''Super Mario Galaxy'' / ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
[[File:SMG2 Stone Cyclone Tox Boxes.png|thumb|left|A blue switch in ''Super Mario Galaxy'']]
{{main|Blue switch (Super Mario Galaxy)}}
In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', ! Switches known as [[blue switch (Super Mario Galaxy)|blue switch]]es appear as a type of [[Ground-Pound Switch]]. Upon being pressed, a temporary effect marked with a timer noise occurs.
 
In the files of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', there is an [[list of Super Mario Galaxy pre-release and unused content#Unused data|unused model]] of a red checkpoint ! Switch.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
! Switches also appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. In [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3]], activating the switch enables Red Blocks throughout [[World 3-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3-4]] and [[World 3-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3-5]] that must be used to access certain areas and continue on to other worlds. Another nearby ! Switch can deactivate them. One also appears during the final boss fight with [[Bowser]], replacing the [[skull switch]] from the previous game. During the first half, a small red ! Switch appears on the other side of the bridge, and it causes the bridge to fall and Bowser to be sent into the pit below. Later, at the end of the second half, a glowing yellow '''large ! Switch'''<ref>{{cite|author=Bueno, Fernando|title=''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|date=November 15, 2009|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|language=en-us|page=171|isbn=978-0-307-46592-4}}</ref> appears, and it causes the lava to drain and Bowser to be sent into another pit.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
[[File:NSMB2_World_3-3_Jump.png|thumb|A ! Switch upside down on a platform in ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'']]
Red ! Switches appear throughout ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', usually triggering something that causes coins to appear. Regular ! Switches and large ! Switches<ref>{{cite|author=von Esmarch, Nick|title=''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' PRIMA Official Game Guide|date=2012|isbn=978-0-307-89552-3|language=en-us|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|page=169 and 229}}</ref> also appear during the battle with [[Bowser]], in the same way as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. These switches also appear in the [[Dry Bowser]] boss battle in [[World Star (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Star]], and only the red switch appears during the Bowser battle in the [[Third Course (Gold Classics Pack)|third course]] in the [[Gold Classics Pack]]. Unlike in ''New Super Mario Bros.'', the ! Switch can only be used once.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. U''====
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', multiple red and blue switches similar to ! Switches appear in [[Rock-Candy Mines]]' world map. A single ! Switch also appears in the first half of the battle against Bowser, where its purpose is to enable the [[axe]] and destroy the bridge, causing him to fall.
 
====''Super Mario Run''====
! Switches reappear in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', where they are yellow. They can be used to change [[Dotted-Line Block]]s into [[Red Block]]s for a limited time to help the player access new places and get through obstacles. Additionally, they appear in [[Scuttlebug Forest]] when collecting the [[Purple Coin]]s and [[Black Coin]]s. In that course, they are used to make coins dangle from strings for a limited period of time.
 
====''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''====
One ! Switch appears in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' in [[The Midway Trial: Hop to It]], in the second [[10-flower coin]] room. The player must provoke a [[Hoppycat]] into pressing the ! Switch so that a line of [[P Block]]s is activated temporarily to form a bridge, allowing the player to cross over [[Spike Trap|spikes]] and reach the 10-flower coin.

Jumping on them causes the [[Dotted-Line Block]]s to transform into red [[! Block]]s. These allow the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] to cross obstacles such as [[pit]]s and spikes, or reach otherwise inaccessible areas. Pressing these switches also occasionally causes a warp to a bonus area to appear, indicated by a red arrow above it. ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' instead features the [[? Switch]], which has a similar role to the latter function.
{{br}}
 
===''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''===
Switches appear periodically in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', where they are circular, flat-topped, and green. In [[Kero Sewers]], one drains the water in the main portion while another, stood upon by [[Belome]], keeps even more water in contained behind a lock. Another is found in a house in [[Rose Town]] and activates the stairway leading to it. Another in [[Booster Tower]] opens up a path in [[Booster Pass]]. In [[Belome Temple]], Belome again stands on one, this time keeping a door to [[Monstro Town]] shut. In [[Bowser's Keep]], one of [[Dr. Topper]]'s puzzles involves pressing all of an array of linked switches, and finally, the [[Factory (Super Mario RPG)|Factory]] has a switch that activates a crane leading to [[Smithy]]'s workshop.
 
===''Wario Land 4''===
[[File:WL4-Switch.png|frame|The different colored "!" Buttons in ''[[Wario Land 4]]'']]
In ''[[Wario Land 4]]'', there are three colored blocks. These '''"!" Buttons'''<ref>{{cite|title=''Wario Land 4'' instruction booklet|page=26|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|date=2001}}</ref> (or '''Exclamation Switches'''<ref>{{cite|date=Fall 2001|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo Power|title=''[[nwiki:Nintendo Power Advance|Nintendo Power Advance]]'' Volume 3|page=53}}</ref>) are similar to ! Switches in that they change from transparent to solid as [[Wario]] hits them from below. They are often found in [[pink area]]s, where Wario can solve a puzzle or overcome obstacles to gain a [[Diamond]].
 
===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario''====
[[File:PM Exclaimation Switch Render.png|frame|left]]
[[File:PM Kooper Fortress Switch.png|thumb|[[Mario]] using [[Kooper]] to hit a switch in [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]]]]
In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', switches trigger various events when hit or jumped on and are often involved in puzzles. The standard dome-shaped switches appear in blue and red. Blue switches can only be used once, normally for opening passages of some kind, while the red switches can be used an unlimited amount of times, and are normally used for moving important objects.
 
In the prologue, the [[Goomboss|Goomba King]] warns [[Mario]] not to press a blue switch, claiming it is "dangerous". However, Mario presses it, the [[Goomba King's Fortress]] turns into a bridge, and the Goomba King and [[Red & Blue Goomba Bros.|Goomba Bros.]] are thrown away. In Chapter 1, Mario has to use [[Kooper]] to press switches that appear over gaps. In [[Dry Dry Ruins (Paper Mario)|Dry Dry Ruins]], flat, stone, square off-pink colored ones appear in certain rooms and are used to drain sand, or in one case cause stairs to emerge from a wall. Similar switches without the exclamation mark are used to rotate stairways.
 
In the basement of [[Boo's Mansion]], a giant-sized switch appears, and must be triggered using a [[Ground Pound|Spin Jump]] to make the stairs appear. In Chapter 6, a series of paired stone elevators appear with flat, square switches on top in red, green, and purple and must be navigated to reach the [[Puff Puff Machine]]; these also must be pressed with a Spin Jump.
 
In Chapter 7, a flat, circular green one nearly identical to the ones in ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', called a '''floor switch''' by [[Goombario]], appears on [[Shiver Mountain]] and is used to raise a platform of icy ground. Additionally, more flat square switches which change color when slammed are used to switch between doors in the [[Crystal Palace]], and Mario needs [[Bombette]] for two round red switches that activate a rotating door in the same area. Finally, Bowser uses another green floor switch to remove the bridge to the [[Power Platform]] once Mario and his team have boarded, triggering the final battle.
{{br}}
 
====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
[[File:Shell Toss Info.png|thumb|[[Shell Toss]] demonstration]]
Switches make appearances in several parts of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', appearing as red or blue like the previous, as well as retaining its usual functionality of hitting blue switches once and red switches for an unlimited amount of time. Standard switches in this game are now cube-shaped. On rare occasions, they float in the air as blocks and must be jumped at to activate.
 
In [[Petal Meadows]], Mario has to hit two blue switches with circular insides, called '''tandem switches''' (which appear after retrieving the [[Sun Stone|two Stone]] [[Moon Stone|Keys]] in [[Shhwonk Fortress]]), simultaneously to activate the [[Warp Pipe]] to [[Hooktail Castle]]; he accomplishes this by utilizing [[Koops]]'s hold ability.
 
There are also black and white switches found in [[the Great Tree]]. [[Mario]] and company push the black switch to reveal four white switches in the room where Mario found the blue key to free the other [[Puni]]es. Mario has to hit the white switches in this order: Sun, Moon, Puni, and Star to retrieve the [[Super Boots]]. Also in the Great Tree is a light-blue colored flat switch (simply called a "typical switch" by [[Goombella]]) which causes a standard blue switch to move underwater whenever it is depressed. Koops' hold ability again must be used to hit the switch when it comes back out.
 
A giant '''super switch''' appears outside the juice bar in [[Glitzville]]. Mario needs to perform a Spin Jump on it to activate it, allowing him to reach the roof. More super switches appear in [[Rogueport Underground]], and cause blue pipes to appear when triggered.
 
Switches with numbers inside appear in the lower floors of the [[Riverside Station]]. Mario and friends have to defeat three [[Goomba]]s guarding them to access them. The left switch has to be hit 3 times, the center switch has to be hit 10 times and the right switch only has to be hit once. Hitting the switches the correct amount of times will make them flash red until the last switch is hit. After all the switches are hit, the switches will vanish, opening a staircase leading Mario and friends to the [[Ultra Boots]], as well as a [[Shine Sprite]]. Goombella cannot tattle these switches.
 
Seven red switches found in the [[Palace of Shadow]] are the only red switches that can only be used once. They move a wheel allowing [[Mario]] and his friends to get to the [[Shadow Queen]]'s throne room and crypt. From left to right, hitting the first, third, fourth and sixth switches, as noted by the stars underneath the wheel, will activate it.

*"''That's just a normal switch. Stomp on it or whack it to flip the switch.''"
*"''That's a super switch. Do a Spin Jump above it to activate it.''"
*"''That's a Lift Switch. Hit it to ride a Lift Block of the same color.''"
 
====''Super Paper Mario''====
[[File:SPM Yold Ruins Big Red Switch.png|thumb|left|A giant red switch]]
[[File:SPM Blue Switch.png|thumb|200px|A blue switch]]
In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', red and blue switches appear in a similar manner to the previous game. Floating block versions are uncovered by the [[Pixl]] [[Fleep]]. In [[Yold Ruins]], there is also a giant red switch that appears on the floor by using a standard blue switch, and causes a number of [[Spiky Tromp]]s that appear by pressing the other switch to fall into a large pit, which allows Mario to access a door. Another of this type appears near a [[Heart Pillar]] in [[Flopside]]. Switches similar to the previous game's tandem switches also exist; the most common of these are blue switches, which generally cause an event to occur. In [[The Dotwood Tree]], there are switches that change color between blue and pink when hit; hitting the switch causes the platforms of the corresponding color to appear, while the other platforms disappear. In [[Floro Caverns]], four switches change between black, white, blue, and red, and must be changed to match the nearby portraits of [[Floro Sapien]] royalty.
{{br}}
 
===''Super Princess Peach''===
In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', dome-shaped switches resemble their appearance from ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' and appear in [[Fury Volcano]] stages, along with certain secret levels. In order to press them down, [[Princess Peach]] needs to have her [[Rage]] [[vibe]] active, causing a nearby statue to be destroyed and become passable. Floating, block-like ones are found in numerous locations and toggle on or off when hit. This type is normally orange, but appears blue in [[Wavy Beach]].
 
===''Super Mario-kun''===
[[File:SuperMarioKun !Switch 3.jpg|thumb|left|150px|In one part of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', the switch is used to activate blocks so they can fall and defeat the [[Rex]].]]
! Switches appear several times in ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. In one instance, the switch is used to defeat Rex. In another instance, a Reznor knocks Mario onto a building shaped like the ! Switch. After defeating the Reznor, Mario is shown to be exasperated at a set of invisible blocks, which require a ! Switch to activate.
 
===''Mario Pinball Land''===
A '''Red Switch'''<ref>{{cite|url=www.thegameisafootarcade.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Mario-Pinball-Land-Game-Manual.pdf|title=''Mario Pinball Land'' instruction booklet|page=23|date=2004|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|format=PDF}}</ref> appears in every level of ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]''. If [[Mario]] hits one of these switches hard enough, eight [[Red Coin]]s pop out and land in almost every area in the level. Mario has to find the eight Red Coins around the level within the time limit. Hitting the switch is worth 3,000 points. Mario can use the switch as many times as needed; once Mario gets all the Red Coins in time, he obtains a [[Power Star|Star]], and the deactivated switch is changed into a red [[! Block]], which contains one of the rare [[Yoshi's Egg#Mario Pinball Land|Special Egg]]s. This is the only way to obtain one.
 
A '''Blue Switch'''<ref>{{cite|url=www.thegameisafootarcade.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Mario-Pinball-Land-Game-Manual.pdf|format=PDF|title=''Mario Pinball Land'' instruction booklet|page=20|date=2004|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref> appears in the [[Grassy Greens Stage]], where it is used to stop the windmill's blades so Mario can enter easily. In addition, a Blue Switch appears in the Bob-omb minigame from [[Toad's tent]] in [[the Fun Fair]]. It can be activated only when it is flashing, and activating it causes one of the cannons to shoot a Bob-omb onto the playfield. A Blue Switch also appears during the battle with [[Bowser]]. It can be activated only when at least one of the [[Thwomp]]s in the room is raised as high as possible, which causes it to flash, and hitting it causes the Thwomps to drop to the floor, temporarily incapacitating Bowser. Hitting a Blue Switch is worth 3,000 points.
 
===''Mario Party 6''===
In ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', a green, yellow, and red ! Switch can be seen inside [[Orb hut]]s, although they do not appear to have any function.
{{br}}
 
===''Yoshi's Woolly World'' / ''Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World''===
In ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', ! Switches appear in two colors: red and yellow. The red ! Switches function identically as in the ''Yoshi's Island'' series. The yellow ! Switches work the opposite, transforming yellow ! Blocks back into Dotted Line Blocks. Yellow ! Switches only appear in [[Perils of the Perplexing Pyramid]], and are used to access collectibles, such as keys.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===
Several ! Switches appear in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: World of Light|World of Light]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', especially within the [[smashwiki:Molten Fortress|Molten Fortress]] sub-area. As with other appearances, they are used to make ! Blocks appear along the map, acting as bridges that connect various points in the area. The ! Switches come in red, yellow and blue.

A ! Switch[1][2][3] (or !-Switch),[4] also known as a ! Switch Block[5] or simply a switch, is a type of Switch Block first seen in Super Mario World. Although its exact function varies between each game, it is mostly associated with turning blocks solid and triggering important events when pressed.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario World / Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2[edit]

The four big switches from Super Mario World

In Super Mario World and its reissue, in each of the four Switch Palaces, there is a ! Switch (simply referred to as a "big switch" in the manual[6] and also known as a Switch[7]) of a different color, either the Yellow Switch,[8] the Green Switch,[9] the Red Switch,[10] or the Blue Switch[11] in that order, that permanently turns every Dotted-Line Block of the same color into an Exclamation Mark Block of the same color. In the original game, if the player presses B Button on the same frame that one of these switches is pressed, Mario or Luigi will jump off the switch as it is pressed, remaining in midair as gameplay pauses to display the Switch Palace's congratulatory message.[12]

Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS[edit]

A Switch from Super Mario 64 DS

Super Mario 64 features two types of ! Switches. Purple Switches[13] (or Purple Exclamation Switches)[14] are flat and rectangular in shape. In Super Mario 64, their hue is plum, while in Super Mario 64 DS, they are dark brownish-red. They are found in a majority of the game's courses. Though their exact effect varies from course to course, the most common effects are making a set of breakable platforms appear and making unnavigable terrain passable, such as turning a steep slope into a staircase. With very few exceptions, the effect of a Purple Switch is temporary. A ticking sound indicates that the switch is still in effect, and it gets more rapid as the effect is about to expire. The remake introduces a yellow star-shaped variant called a Star Switch.

Cap Switches have a dome shape like the ! Switches from Super Mario World. The red one appears on the Tower of the Wing Cap, the green one appears in the Cavern of the Metal Cap, and the blue one appears in Vanish Cap Under the Moat. Like in Super Mario World, these cause Cap Blocks of the same color to solidify, allowing players to use the cap power-ups in courses. In Super Mario 64 DS, the Cap Switches were changed from three colored ! Switches to one red ? Switch.

Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

!-Switch

In Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3, small yellow !-Switches appear in three World-e levels: Doors o' Plenty, A Sky-High Adventure, and Sea to Sky. They can be carried similarly to the Switch Blocks of Super Mario World, and, when pressed, turn the Dotted-Line Blocks into ! Blocks for several seconds, similarly to the Yoshi series. Unlike Switch Blocks, they can be pressed more than once, and can even be carried while they are pressed. However, Mario is unable to use Triangular Blocks while carrying an !-Switch.

New Super Mario Bros.[edit]

In New Super Mario Bros., the ! Switch has many of the same functions as that of the Yoshi franchise. All of the ! Switches in the game are red and turn Dotted-Line Blocks into solid Red Blocks. Unlike switches in Super Mario World, the switches are only temporary and mainly help the player get through obstacles and to Star Coins.

The Purple Switch from Super Mario 64 was also originally intended to appear in this game, but went unused.

Super Mario Galaxy / Super Mario Galaxy 2[edit]

Main article: Blue switch (Super Mario Galaxy)

In Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2, ! Switches known as blue switches appear as a type of Ground-Pound Switch. Upon being pressed, a temporary effect marked with a timer noise occurs.

In the files of Super Mario Galaxy, there is an unused model of a red checkpoint ! Switch.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]

! Switches also appear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. In World 3, activating the switch enables Red Blocks throughout World 3-4 and World 3-5 that must be used to access certain areas and continue on to other worlds. Another nearby ! Switch can deactivate them. One also appears during the final boss fight with Bowser, replacing the skull switch from the previous game. During the first half, a small red ! Switch appears on the other side of the bridge, and it causes the bridge to fall and Bowser to be sent into the pit below. Later, at the end of the second half, a glowing yellow large ! Switch[15] appears, and it causes the lava to drain and Bowser to be sent into another pit.

New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

Red ! Switches appear throughout New Super Mario Bros. 2, usually triggering something that causes coins to appear. Regular ! Switches and large ! Switches[16] also appear during the battle with Bowser, in the same way as in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. These switches also appear in the Dry Bowser boss battle in World Star, and only the red switch appears during the Bowser battle in the third course in the Gold Classics Pack. Unlike in New Super Mario Bros., the ! Switch can only be used once.

New Super Mario Bros. U[edit]

In New Super Mario Bros. U, multiple red and blue switches similar to ! Switches appear in Rock-Candy Mines' world map. A single ! Switch also appears in the first half of the battle against Bowser, where its purpose is to enable the axe and destroy the bridge, causing him to fall.

Super Mario Run[edit]

! Switches reappear in Super Mario Run, where they are yellow. They can be used to change Dotted-Line Blocks into Red Blocks for a limited time to help the player access new places and get through obstacles. Additionally, they appear in Scuttlebug Forest when collecting the Purple Coins and Black Coins. In that course, they are used to make coins dangle from strings for a limited period of time.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder[edit]

One ! Switch appears in Super Mario Bros. Wonder in The Midway Trial: Hop to It, in the second 10-flower coin room. The player must provoke a Hoppycat into pressing the ! Switch so that a line of P Blocks is activated temporarily to form a bridge, allowing the player to cross over spikes and reach the 10-flower coin.

Yoshi's Island series[edit]

Switches[17][18][19][20] appear in every installment of the Yoshi's Island series: Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (and its reissue), Yoshi's Island DS, Yoshi's New Island. Jumping on them causes the Dotted-Line Blocks to transform into red ! Blocks. These allow the Yoshis to cross obstacles such as pits and spikes, or reach otherwise inaccessible areas. Pressing these switches also occasionally causes a warp to a bonus area to appear, indicated by a red arrow above it. Yoshi's Story instead features the ? Switch, which has a similar role to the latter function.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[edit]

Switches appear periodically in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, where they are circular, flat-topped, and green. In Kero Sewers, one drains the water in the main portion while another, stood upon by Belome, keeps even more water in contained behind a lock. Another is found in a house in Rose Town and activates the stairway leading to it. Another in Booster Tower opens up a path in Booster Pass. In Belome Temple, Belome again stands on one, this time keeping a door to Monstro Town shut. In Bowser's Keep, one of Dr. Topper's puzzles involves pressing all of an array of linked switches, and finally, the Factory has a switch that activates a crane leading to Smithy's workshop.

Wario Land 4[edit]

In Wario Land 4, there are three colored blocks. These "!" Buttons[21] (or Exclamation Switches[22]) are similar to ! Switches in that they change from transparent to solid as Wario hits them from below. They are often found in pink areas, where Wario can solve a puzzle or overcome obstacles to gain a Diamond.

Paper Mario series[edit]

Paper Mario[edit]

In Paper Mario, switches trigger various events when hit or jumped on and are often involved in puzzles. The standard dome-shaped switches appear in blue and red. Blue switches can only be used once, normally for opening passages of some kind, while the red switches can be used an unlimited amount of times, and are normally used for moving important objects.

In the prologue, the Goomba King warns Mario not to press a blue switch, claiming it is "dangerous". However, Mario presses it, the Goomba King's Fortress turns into a bridge, and the Goomba King and Goomba Bros. are thrown away. In Chapter 1, Mario has to use Kooper to press switches that appear over gaps. In Dry Dry Ruins, flat, stone, square off-pink colored ones appear in certain rooms and are used to drain sand, or in one case cause stairs to emerge from a wall. Similar switches without the exclamation mark are used to rotate stairways.

In the basement of Boo's Mansion, a giant-sized switch appears, and must be triggered using a Spin Jump to make the stairs appear. In Chapter 6, a series of paired stone elevators appear with flat, square switches on top in red, green, and purple and must be navigated to reach the Puff Puff Machine; these also must be pressed with a Spin Jump.

In Chapter 7, a flat, circular green one nearly identical to the ones in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, called a floor switch by Goombario, appears on Shiver Mountain and is used to raise a platform of icy ground. Additionally, more flat square switches which change color when slammed are used to switch between doors in the Crystal Palace, and Mario needs Bombette for two round red switches that activate a rotating door in the same area. Finally, Bowser uses another green floor switch to remove the bridge to the Power Platform once Mario and his team have boarded, triggering the final battle.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

Shell Toss demonstration

Switches make appearances in several parts of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, appearing as red or blue like the previous, as well as retaining its usual functionality of hitting blue switches once and red switches for an unlimited amount of time. Standard switches in this game are now cube-shaped. On rare occasions, they float in the air as blocks and must be jumped at to activate.

In Petal Meadows, Mario has to hit two blue switches with circular insides, called tandem switches (which appear after retrieving the two Stone Keys in Shhwonk Fortress), simultaneously to activate the Warp Pipe to Hooktail Castle; he accomplishes this by utilizing Koops's hold ability.

There are also black and white switches found in the Great Tree. Mario and company push the black switch to reveal four white switches in the room where Mario found the blue key to free the other Punies. Mario has to hit the white switches in this order: Sun, Moon, Puni, and Star to retrieve the Super Boots. Also in the Great Tree is a light-blue colored flat switch (simply called a "typical switch" by Goombella) which causes a standard blue switch to move underwater whenever it is depressed. Koops' hold ability again must be used to hit the switch when it comes back out.

A giant super switch appears outside the juice bar in Glitzville. Mario needs to perform a Spin Jump on it to activate it, allowing him to reach the roof. More super switches appear in Rogueport Underground, and cause blue pipes to appear when triggered.

Switches with numbers inside appear in the lower floors of the Riverside Station. Mario and friends have to defeat three Goombas guarding them to access them. The left switch has to be hit 3 times, the center switch has to be hit 10 times and the right switch only has to be hit once. Hitting the switches the correct amount of times will make them flash red until the last switch is hit. After all the switches are hit, the switches will vanish, opening a staircase leading Mario and friends to the Ultra Boots, as well as a Shine Sprite. Goombella cannot tattle these switches.

Seven red switches found in the Palace of Shadow are the only red switches that can only be used once. They move a wheel allowing Mario and his friends to get to the Shadow Queen's throne room and crypt. From left to right, hitting the first, third, fourth and sixth switches, as noted by the stars underneath the wheel, will activate it.

Tattles
  • "That's just a normal switch. Stomp on it or whack it to flip the switch."
  • "That's a super switch. Do a Spin Jump above it to activate it."
  • "That's a Lift Switch. Hit it to ride a Lift Block of the same color."

Super Paper Mario[edit]

In Super Paper Mario, red and blue switches appear in a similar manner to the previous game. Floating block versions are uncovered by the Pixl Fleep. In Yold Ruins, there is also a giant red switch that appears on the floor by using a standard blue switch, and causes a number of Spiky Tromps that appear by pressing the other switch to fall into a large pit, which allows Mario to access a door. Another of this type appears near a Heart Pillar in Flopside. Switches similar to the previous game's tandem switches also exist; the most common of these are blue switches, which generally cause an event to occur. In The Dotwood Tree, there are switches that change color between blue and pink when hit; hitting the switch causes the platforms of the corresponding color to appear, while the other platforms disappear. In Floro Caverns, four switches change between black, white, blue, and red, and must be changed to match the nearby portraits of Floro Sapien royalty.

Super Princess Peach[edit]

In Super Princess Peach, dome-shaped switches resemble their appearance from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and appear in Fury Volcano stages, along with certain secret levels. In order to press them down, Princess Peach needs to have her Rage vibe active, causing a nearby statue to be destroyed and become passable. Floating, block-like ones are found in numerous locations and toggle on or off when hit. This type is normally orange, but appears blue in Wavy Beach.

Super Mario-kun[edit]

In one part of Super Mario-kun, the switch is used to activate blocks so they can fall and defeat the Rex.

! Switches appear several times in Super Mario-kun. In one instance, the switch is used to defeat Rex. In another instance, a Reznor knocks Mario onto a building shaped like the ! Switch. After defeating the Reznor, Mario is shown to be exasperated at a set of invisible blocks, which require a ! Switch to activate.

Mario Pinball Land[edit]

A Red Switch[23] appears in every level of Mario Pinball Land. If Mario hits one of these switches hard enough, eight Red Coins pop out and land in almost every area in the level. Mario has to find the eight Red Coins around the level within the time limit. Hitting the switch is worth 3,000 points. Mario can use the switch as many times as needed; once Mario gets all the Red Coins in time, he obtains a Star, and the deactivated switch is changed into a red ! Block, which contains one of the rare Special Eggs. This is the only way to obtain one.

A Blue Switch[24] appears in the Grassy Greens Stage, where it is used to stop the windmill's blades so Mario can enter easily. In addition, a Blue Switch appears in the Bob-omb minigame from Toad's tent in the Fun Fair. It can be activated only when it is flashing, and activating it causes one of the cannons to shoot a Bob-omb onto the playfield. A Blue Switch also appears during the battle with Bowser. It can be activated only when at least one of the Thwomps in the room is raised as high as possible, which causes it to flash, and hitting it causes the Thwomps to drop to the floor, temporarily incapacitating Bowser. Hitting a Blue Switch is worth 3,000 points.

Mario Party 6[edit]

In Mario Party 6, a green, yellow, and red ! Switch can be seen inside Orb huts, although they do not appear to have any function.

Yoshi's Woolly World / Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World[edit]

In Yoshi's Woolly World and Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World, ! Switches appear in two colors: red and yellow. The red ! Switches function identically as in the Yoshi's Island series. The yellow ! Switches work the opposite, transforming yellow ! Blocks back into Dotted Line Blocks. Yellow ! Switches only appear in Perils of the Perplexing Pyramid, and are used to access collectibles, such as keys.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]

Several ! Switches appear in World of Light in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, especially within the Molten Fortress sub-area. As with other appearances, they are used to make ! Blocks appear along the map, acting as bridges that connect various points in the area. The ! Switches come in red, yellow and blue.
