Save Block
A Save Block from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars.

A Save Block allows Mario to save his game in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. When Mario jumps on one, the block takes him to the save screen, allowing the player to save his or her game. These blocks are scattered all over the Mushroom World. Additionally, Save Blocks can always be found inside inns.

Save Blocks were seen again in the Paper Mario series. This time, instead of jumping on top, they needed to be hit from underneath like regular blocks. They also had a vastly different appearance, being rainbow-colored blocks labeled "S" rather than the Super Mario Bros.-style, star-spangled blocks seen in Super Mario RPG. The rainbow coloring would later be used in Partners in Time by the Aurora Block.

In the first two installments of the Mario & Luigi series, Save Blocks were replaced by Save Albums; however, Save Blocks were present in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, also in the form of Red Emoglobins. Mario and Luigi had to hit the blocks from below, while Bowser had to hit the blocks by punching them.
