Tatenoko[1] is an obstacle in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. It is a saw-like object that only appears in the first stage of the Mario Zone. Its attack pattern consists of moving around horizontally on a set path, harming Mario if he touches them. They can only be defeated by throwing a Green Shell at them.
