Floors appear as the main platforms used in Mario Bros. While they function as normal platforms when the player stands on them, the player can also bump them from below to stun enemies and collect coins on the place where the platform was bumped. Their appearance changes depending on the phase, and there are also slippery and invisible versions.

Floors reprise their roles in the various in-game ports of Mario Bros., including the battle mode in Super Mario Bros. 3, the Battle Game in Super Mario All-Stars, the remake in the Super Mario Advance games and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, and the game Luigi Bros. in Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port.
