A '''blue switch'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010. ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] Premiere Edition guide. Page 180.</ref> is a [[! Switch]] functioning as a [[Ground-Pound Switch]] that appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. During gameplay, [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] must [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]] the blue switches. Upon one being pressed, a temporary effect marked with a speeding-up ticking sound occurs, ending with a ding. Two appear in the [[Beach Bowl Galaxy]], where they briefly spawn wooden [[platform]]s, and they also appear in the [[Bubble Breeze Galaxy]], where they open alternate paths. | A '''blue switch'''<ref>Browne, Catherine. 2010.

Blue switches return with similar roles in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. One freezes the water on a small planetoid in the [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]], one moves an elevator for a [[Gold Chomp]] in the [[Chompworks Galaxy]], and one briefly changes a field of [[gravity]] in | Blue switches return with similar roles in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. One freezes the water on a small planetoid in the [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]], one moves an elevator for a [[Gold Chomp]] in the [[Chompworks Galaxy]], and one briefly changes a field of [[gravity]] in [[Upside Dizzy Galaxy]]. In certain stages with unusually fast obstacles, found in the [[Space Storm Galaxy]], [[Clockwork Ruins Galaxy]], and [[Stone Cyclone Galaxy]], the switches cause the entire screen to turn black and white with a rippling effect and the music to sound compressed. The main effect of hitting one of these switches, however, is that it will slow down all the obstacles around Mario or Luigi. The switches can allow him to pass under a [[Thwomp]] or [[jump]] on a fast-moving platform with ease. | ||
