Mario riding a Switchboard in Super Mario 3D Land.

Switchboards are a kind of platform in Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World. They are green and have two arrows, pointing left and right, each one on a pad. If the player steps on one of this pads, the arrow on the side they stand on will turn yellow, and the Switchboard will move over rails to the indicated direction.

Switchboards first appear in Super Mario 3D Land in World 1-3, and appear in large numbers in World 1-4, Special 3-1 and Special 5-3. If there are small blocks at the end of the rails, the platform will simply bump and stop. Rails with no blocks on the end will cause the Switchboard to fall down.

Switchboards return in Super Mario 3D World, appearing in World 3-7, Switchboard Falls and World Star-9, Cosmic Cannon Cluster where they are the main mode of transportation. This time, the border around the platforms is white instead of green.
