==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' / ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' / ''Super Mario Advance''====
[[File:Vase SMB2 Sprite.png|frame|left]]
Jars in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' are the main modes of transportation of [[Subcon]], and if a character goes down a jar, they will appear in a small room sometimes containing a [[key]] being protected by a [[Phanto]]. Jars in certain [[level]]s within [[Subspace]] contain a Subspace Warp that warps the player character to a certain later [[world]]. A door from a [[Magical Potion]] cannot be spawned inside of a jar. [[Cobrat]]s sometimes lurk in the openings of some jars. Certain jars are '''Shy Guy Generators'''<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Bryan|title=''Super Mario Advance'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide|page=39, 40, 59, 60, 63, 64, 73, 74, 76, 87|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=June 7, 2001|isbn=0-7615-3633-7|language=en-us}}</ref> and '''Bob-Omb Generators''',<ref>{{cite|author=Stratton, Bryan|title=''Super Mario Advance'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide|page=58, 59, 69, 76|publisher=[[Prima Games]]|date=June 7, 2001|isbn=0-7615-3633-7|language=en-us}}</ref> which generate endless streams of red [[Shy Guy|Shyguy]]s or [[Bob-omb|Bob-Ombs]], respectively, unless their entrances are blocked. In ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', some jars also contain [[Spark]]s and [[Spark Chaser]]s, as well as (sometimes Shyguy-ridden) Ferris wheel [[platform]]s, and one contains a [[bouncing blade]]; jars were also added to levels in that version, and certain closed-off jars in previous versions were opened.

====''BS Super Mario USA''====
Jars in ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'' are used identically as in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', except jars in [[Subspace]] lead to a battle against [[Wart]].

====''Super Mario Sunshine''====
Jars<ref>{{cite|author=Averill, Alan and Jennifer Villarreal|title=''Super Mario Sunshine: The Official Nintendo Player's Guide''|location=Redmond|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=2002|page=124|isbn=1-930206-23-2}}</ref> in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' appear a hidden room in [[Noki Bay]], underneath [[Gooper Blooper]]'s boss arena, and one of the two largest jars releases a [[Blue Coin|blue coin]] when sprayed at.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
[[File:Mushroom_Kingdom_II_SSBU.png|thumb|Mushroom Kingdom II in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'']]
Jars in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] appear in the background of the [[Mushroom Kingdom II]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

===''Mario Pinball Land''===
Jars in ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]'' appear on the first pyramid interior board of the [[Shifting Sands Stage]]. There are four jars, which have earthy colors and diamond shapes on their pattern. They cannot be interacted with as their corners are elevated, but [[Cobrat|Snake]]s come out of them if the middle [[floor panel]] is activated.

Jars appear in two sizes throughout the [[Shy Guy Bazaar]] course in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. They are depicted with a green hue, full lower diamond shapes, no horizontal lines, and a lid covering the top. The large version is decorative, but the small version appears as an obstacle. If driven into, they break and some items will fly out, namely [[banana]]s. Some of them, known as '''snake jars''',  can also walk and move around, and they reveal many green, [[Cobrat]]-like snakes when broken. "Jar" was previously all lowercase before the [[Paris Tour]]<ref>RebelYelliex (October 9, 2019). [https://youtu.be/VI-eNdd1i9k?t=44 Mario Kart Tour Tokyo Tour Toad Cup Shy Guy Bazaar]. ''YouTube''.
