A Brick Block is a block that has made an appearance in every Mario platformer to date. As its name implies, Brick Blocks are blocks made of bricks.
In the side-scrolling games, Mario and Luigi could only break this block as Super Mario or another form of Super Mario, such as Fire Mario. By jumping into it from beneath, the Brick Block would shatter, giving you 10 points.
In Super Mario Sunshine Brick Blocks appeared again, only this time filled with sand. However, they are otherwise no different from their earlier counterparts.
Starting in New Super Mario Bros., Brick Blocks could also be Ground Pounded to break them.
