Roto-Discs are fireball-like entities that first appeared in Super Mario Land. They were not named 'Roto-Discs' until Super Mario Bros. 3, however. In Super Mario Bros. 3, Roto-Discs are found circling gray orbs, on which either Mario or Luigi can stand. In Super Mario Land, Roto-Discs would orbit a block. Roto-Discs are nearly invulnerable. They can only be destroyed if Mario or Luigi transform into a statue by using a Tanooki Suit and land on top of one. Aside from Super Mario Bros. 3 and its subsequent remakes, the only other appearance of Roto-Discs was in the Mini-Mario course in Bowser's Castle in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga as obstacles that are capable of defeating Mario in one hit.
