In the Mario series, Wind appears in a few games. It is an obstacle in games. While wind can not hurt the player, it can blow them into an enemy or into an abyss.
Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels
In Super Mario Bros. The Lost Levels, Wind appears for the first time. While it is dangerous at times, it is needed to clear some levels. Some gaps are so big that springs are needed along with the wind to traverse the gap.
Super Mario 64/Super Mario 64 DS
In some ice levels of Super Mario 64 and its DS remake like Cool Cool Mountain, Snowman's Land, and Chief Chilly Challenge (DS only), there will be a big gust of icy wind that will carry the player over a gap. There are also wind gusts that can push them off the edge. The wind also appears in Tiny-Huge Island, Rainbow Ride, and Tall, Tall Mountain.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl wind appears on some levels in the Subspace Emissary. They are The Wilds, The Swamp, The Battleship Halberd Exterior and The Glacial Peak. It blows like normal wind to the side but it also blows upward in the swamp. The stage Pokemon Stadium 2 will sometimes blow wing making it take longer to get down. Three flying type pokemon (Drifloon, Hoppip, and Skarmory) appear during this. The Pictochat stage also feautures drawn wind. Since Green Greens returns, so does the wind on the stage. The enemies Borboras in the Subspace Emissary also blow wind.
