In [[Mecha Castle]], pistons appear in pairs and try to crush an unsuspecting [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] passing between. If a Yoshi is crushed, he will be defeated instantly and lost as a result. Even the [[Super Happy]] form cannot protect the Yoshi from this hazard.

A different-looking type of piston<ref>''Nintendo Power Advance'' V.3, page 57.</ref><ref>Wessel, Craig. ''Warioland 4''. Page 29.</ref> appears in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. If a piston squishes [[Wario]], it transforms him into [[Flat Wario]], allowing him to crawl into small spaces. Pistons do not harm Wario or any enemy in any sort of way. These objects mainly appear in factory [[level]]s (such as [[The Curious Factory]]) and some [[pink area]]s. There is always a [[Decompressor]] or a body of [[water]] that returns Wario to his normal size and shape.
 
Pistons return in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' as hazardous objects that appear in only one level: [[Fluff-Puff Peaks Flying Battleship]]. If [[Mario]] is crushed by a piston, he reverts to [[Small Mario]] and loses a life immediately after.
