| '''Nails'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Premiere Edition guide. Page 220.</ref> are metal objects in the 3D ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' games that the player character can swing from. Nails are embedded into the sides of terrain. The character will automatically grab onto one on contact, and moving the control stick back and forth will cause them to swing. Letting go at the apex propels the character high into the air, allowing them to access greater heights and tall platforms they otherwise would not be able to reach. If the character [[jump]]s onto a nail with maintained momentum, they will automatically be swung forward, enabling them to immediately be swung forward and reach the apex without needing to tilt the control stick. Nails are often clustered together and evenly spaced apart, allowing the player to swing from one to another in rapid succession.

| Nails are similar to the [[Rope|wires]] in ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' and ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]''. [[Trapeze]]s, which debuted alongside nails in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', also have a comparable mechanical function.

| ==History==
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
| |
| Nails appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', specifically in the [[Deep Dark Galaxy]] missions "[[Boo in a Box]]" and "[[Bubble Blastoff]]". They must be clung to, and they provide a very limited range for the player to jump off.
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Mario Galaxy 2''===
| |
| Nails return in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', specifically in the [[Clockwork Ruins Galaxy]] mission "[[Time for Adventure]]". They behave as they did in ''Super Mario Galaxy''.
