'''Red Rings'''<ref>''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' European English electronic manual, page 29.</ref> (also formatted as '''red rings'''),<ref>''New Super Mario Bros.'' North American instruction booklet, page 17.</ref> also known as '''red-coin rings''',<ref>Loe, Casey. ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Player's Guide. Page 8.</ref> are objects present in the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'']] series. They first appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', and when [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] [[jump]]s through a Red Ring, it makes several [[Red Coin]]s appear, but only for a limited time. In most games, eight Red Coins appear, while in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', there are only five. The prize for collecting them all always depends on what form the player is in.

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:RedRing.PNG|thumb|A Red Ring in [[World 1-5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-5]] of ''New Super Mario Bros.'']]
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', when Mario or Luigi is in his [[Small Mario|Small form]] or [[Mini Mario (form)|Mini form]] upon collecting the final Red Coin, a [[Super Mushroom]] appears. If he is in his [[Super Mario (form)|Super form]], a [[Fire Flower]] appears. If he is in his [[Fire Mario|Fire form]] or [[Shell Mario|Shell form]], a [[1-Up Mushroom]] appears instead. Like mentioned above, the prize always depends on what form the player is in. Each Red Ring is worth 1,000 [[point]]s.

====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', Red Rings serve the same function as before. However, an item appears for every character that is onscreen and not in a [[bubble]] when the final coin is collected. Fire Flowers, [[Propeller Mushroom]]s, [[Ice Flower]]s, or [[Penguin Suit]]s, depending on the [[level]], appear for every character who is in their Super form. Anyone who is in their Fire form, [[Ice Mario|Ice form]], [[Propeller Mario|Propeller form]], or [[Penguin Mario|Penguin form]] gains a 1-Up Mushroom.

====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
Red Rings also appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', making their first appearance in a 3D ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' game. They now make only five Red Coins appear instead of eight, but other than that, they function the same way. Depending on the level, they can yield a Fire Flower, [[Super Leaf]], [[Statue Leaf]], or [[Boomerang Flower]] when Mario or Luigi is in his Super form. Like always, when all Red Coins are collected in a powered-up form, a 1-Up Mushroom appears.

====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
Red Rings reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where they serve nearly the same function as in the previous ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games. The resulting Red Coins that appear from passing through the Red Rings can either remain in the air as usual or slowly descend from the sky with parachutes. If a player collects all of the Red Coins in a [[Warp Cannon]] level or [[Rainbow Course]], they are rewarded with a [[Gold Flower]] in their inventory. Either a Fire Flower or a Super Leaf will appear if Super Mario collects the eighth Red Coin. The 1-Up Mushroom is replaced by a [[Gold Mushroom]] in the mode [[Coin Rush]].

====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
Red Rings reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', where they retain the same functions as in previous games. There is also a new [[Green Ring]], which has similar functions, except it generates [[Green Coin]]s.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'', collecting all eight Red Coins as [[Toadette]] in most forms yields a [[Super Crown]].

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
Red Rings also appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. This time, like in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games, eight Red Coins are produced instead of five, and they give [[Super Bell]]s, Fire Flowers, Super Leaves, or Boomerang Flowers (depending on the level), even if another higher-tier power-up is active.

====''Super Mario Run''====
Red Rings reappear in ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. When Mario goes through a Red Ring, only five Red Coins appear, like in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. In addition, collecting all of them always grants a [[Super Star]].

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
A Red Ring makes its first appearance outside the ''Super Mario'' series in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', in the [[Golden Plains]] stage. Like in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games, passing through one spawns eight Red Coins; however, each one is worth five coins when collected.

===''Mario + Rabbids'' series===
====''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle''====
In ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]'', Red Rings are encountered in the overworld, and they produce eight Red Coins. Collecting the last Red Coin unveils a [[treasure chest]] containing a new weapon. There are three for each world and an additional four around [[Peach's Castle]], making for a total of sixteen Red Rings.

====''Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope''====
In ''[[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]]'', Red Rings return, serving the same purpose as they did in ''Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle'', although the reward is a [[Planet Coin]] and a treasure chest containing coins rather than a new weapon. There is one on all five planets.
