History

New Super Mario Bros. Wii

In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, only two Swinging Hammers[2] appear in the second half of World 8-6. They are usable solid platforms that swing back and forth on a 180-degree arc.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe

Swinging Hammers return in New Super Mario Bros. U and New Super Luigi U, behaving exactly the same as in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. A new trait they possess is the ability to move on tracks. They appear in Hammerswing Caverns in the former and in Hammerswing Hangout in the latter.

Hammer Pendulums reprise the aforementioned roles in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe.
