Block: Difference between revisions

The first block that appeared was the [[POW Block]] in ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' The POW Block damages all enemies on the screen, making it useful if the player gets swarmed with enemies. ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' introduces the two most common blocks in the ''Mario'' series: the [[Brick Block]] and [[? Block]]. Some Brick Blocks release coins or items when hit, and others are breakable only by [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]] or higher-tiered forms. ? Blocks usually release power-ups, such as [[Super Mushroom]]s or [[Fire Flower]]s. Brick Blocks and ? Blocks appear in almost every ''Mario'' platformer afterwards, and new blocks have usually been introduced in every new platformer, from the [[Note Block]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' to the [[! Block]] in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' to the [[Egg Block]] in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island|Yoshi's Island]]''.
