Trampoline: Difference between revisions

|latest_appearance=''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'' (2023)

In ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. (game)|Donkey Kong Jr.]]'', a '''Jump Board''',<ref>''Donkey Kong Junior'' [[media:DKJ Instruction Card.jpg|instruction card]]</ref> or '''spring board''',<ref>''Donkey Kong Jr.'' NES instruction booklet. Page 6.</ref> is prominently featured in the [[Jump Board Scene]]. [[Donkey Kong Jr.|Junior]] can use it to jump over a [[pit]] but can also use it as a shortcut to reach the hovering platform above it.

The orange springboards from ''Super Mario Galaxy'' return in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', having the same function as they did in that game. Additionally, a new type of springboard appears, which is square, blue, and marked with a pair of footprints, and can be used by simply jumping on it. Like the orange variety, it cannot be carried around.

In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', two types of trampolines appear: '''warp trampolines''' make the player escape to the [[Mario World|world map]], and '''smile trampolines''' make the player exit the immediate area and enter a neighboring location.<ref>''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' English instruction booklet. Page 16.</ref> In the [[Coal Mines]], one smile trampoline is a trap with an unseen ceiling. When Mario uses it, he hits his head and falls unconscious, which is required to reveal [[Croco]].

In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', jump pads are used to exit the [[Creepy Steeple]]'s well and to reach [[Doopliss]]' room.

In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', the player can press {{button|wii|2}} when landing on the trampoline to jump higher, in a similar fashion as the 2D ''Super Mario'' games.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', the [[smashwiki:Spring|spring]] appears as a regular item. If jumped on, a player will be launched in the air much higher than with a normal jump. If the spring is knocked on its side, however, the player will be launched sideways. Its design is based on a [[jack]]. A different kind of springboard also appears as a stage element throughout the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], including [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] and [[smashwiki:Smash Run|Smash Run]].

|''An item used to assist jumping. Jump on it, and it will send you bounding sky-high. You can also toss enemies onto it. It originally appeared in the second stage of Donkey Kong Jr., where it was used as a shortcut to leap to a distant platform. It resembles the bouncing projectiles that appeared in Donkey Kong, but those are said to be actually jacks, not springs.

|''A strong spring that can send you flying higher than you ever have before. If you throw this down while you're in midair, you'll get a boost and sail even farther into the air! Try to be careful, though, since this spring may fall on its side and end up launching you sideways instead of up.''

|''Jump onto this to jump higher than ever before! Throw it in the air, then land on it to jump even higher! Then use special attacks, or even do another jump in midair! If it's lying on its side, though, just bumping into it might be enough to launch you off the stage. You don't want that, so be careful!''
