A '''Save Block''' (or '''save block''') is a [[block]] in the [[Genre#Role-playing|role-playing games]] that enables the player to save their game progress. | |||
==History== | |||
===''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''=== | |||
Save Blocks first appear in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and are seen again in its [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|remake]], being golden-colored blocks with a rainbow "S" label and a star on top of them. When Mario jumps on one, the block takes him to the save screen, allowing the player to save their game. Additionally, Save Blocks can always be found inside [[inn]]s. The Save Block's letter S's appear in serif format in the official artwork, but they use the sans-serif format in the Save Block's in-game sprite. | |||

Save Blocks are seen again in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series. This time, instead of jumping on top, they need to be hit from underneath like regular blocks. They also have a vastly different appearance, being rainbow-colored blocks labeled with a white "S" with a star inside rather than the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''-style blocks with a star on top seen in ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''. At the end of ''[[Paper Mario]]'', after Mario defeats [[Bowser]], the Save Block near the [[Toad House]] and the [[Toad Town Post Office|Post Office]] in [[Toad Town]] will be removed with its position blocked by [[Bruce]] the [[Bob-omb]] and an unnamed [[Koopa Troopa]]. In ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', the "S" label scrolls sideways like how [[? Block]]s in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' do. Save Blocks are also commonly found near [[Recovery Block]]s. In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', Save Blocks resemble their appearance from ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', as they are rainbow-colored with a scrolling "S" label. | |||

Likewise, in the Dutch versions of ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' and the ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' remake, the letter of the Save Blocks is changed to "O" for ''opslaan'' ("to save"). | ||
== | ===''Mario & Luigi'' series=== | ||
{{ | In the [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga|first]] [[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time|two installments]] of the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series, Save Blocks are replaced by [[Save Album]]s; however, Save Blocks are present in most of the locations of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'' as well as in the form of yellow [[Emoglobin]]s in ''Bowser's Inside Story'' and its remake. In all four games, Mario and [[Luigi]] have to hit the blocks from below similar to how it is done in the ''Paper Mario'' games, while in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' and ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', [[Bowser]] has to hit the blocks by punching them. In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' and ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', Save Blocks are dark blue blocks that have rainbow-colored linings and "S" labels, though in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'' and ''Mario & Luigi: Brothership'', they are blue-colored blocks with golden linings and a white-colored "S" label. Save Blocks and Save Albums are completely absent in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''; as such, the player must save from the menu. | ||

- “You look a bit green, so 'ave a wee bit of advice, on me—hit that Save Block to save. 'Cause the thing about life is, ya never know when you're gonna kick the ol' bucket.”
- —Bob-omb in Rogueport, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (Nintendo Switch)
A Save Block (or save block) is a block in the role-playing games that enables the player to save their game progress.
History[edit]
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[edit]
Save Blocks first appear in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and are seen again in its Nintendo Switch remake, being golden-colored blocks with a rainbow "S" label and a star on top of them. When Mario jumps on one, the block takes him to the save screen, allowing the player to save their game. Additionally, Save Blocks can always be found inside inns. The Save Block's letter S's appear in serif format in the official artwork, but they use the sans-serif format in the Save Block's in-game sprite.
Paper Mario series[edit]
Save Blocks are seen again in the Paper Mario series. This time, instead of jumping on top, they need to be hit from underneath like regular blocks. They also have a vastly different appearance, being rainbow-colored blocks labeled with a white "S" with a star inside rather than the Super Mario Bros.-style blocks with a star on top seen in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. At the end of Paper Mario, after Mario defeats Bowser, the Save Block near the Toad House and the Post Office in Toad Town will be removed with its position blocked by Bruce the Bob-omb and an unnamed Koopa Troopa. In Paper Mario: Color Splash, the "S" label scrolls sideways like how ? Blocks in Super Mario Bros. 3 do. Save Blocks are also commonly found near Recovery Blocks. In Paper Mario: The Origami King, Save Blocks resemble their appearance from Paper Mario: Color Splash, as they are rainbow-colored with a scrolling "S" label.
In the Spanish translations of Paper Mario, Paper Mario: Sticker Star, Paper Mario: Color Splash, Paper Mario: The Origami King and the Nintendo Switch remake of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the letter on the Save Blocks is changed to "G" for guardar ("to save"). Likewise, in the Dutch versions of Paper Mario: Color Splash, Paper Mario: The Origami King and the Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake, the letter of the Save Blocks is changed to "O" for opslaan ("to save").
Mario & Luigi series[edit]
In the first two installments of the Mario & Luigi series, Save Blocks are replaced by Save Albums; however, Save Blocks are present in most of the locations of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, and Mario & Luigi: Brothership as well as in the form of yellow Emoglobins in Bowser's Inside Story and its remake. In all four games, Mario and Luigi have to hit the blocks from below similar to how it is done in the Paper Mario games, while in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, Bowser has to hit the blocks by punching them. In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, Save Blocks are dark blue blocks that have rainbow-colored linings and "S" labels, though in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team and Mario & Luigi: Brothership, they are blue-colored blocks with golden linings and a white-colored "S" label. Save Blocks and Save Albums are completely absent in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam; as such, the player must save from the menu.

Trivia[edit]
- In Paper Mario, after Mario defeats Bowser, the Save Block near the Toad Town Post Office disappears, making it impossible for the player to save the game in its "completed" state.
