Purple Switch
It has been suggested that this page be merged with ! Switch. (discuss) |
Template:Item-infobox Purple Switches[1] are a type of ! Switch found in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. In Super Mario 64, their hue is dark violet while in Super Mario 64 DS, they are dark magenta. They are found in a majority of the game's courses. Though their exact effect varies from course to course, the most common effects are either making a set of breakable platforms appear or making unnavigable terrain passable, such as turning a steep slope into a staircase. With very few exceptions, the effect of the Purple Switch is temporary. A ticking sound indicates that the switch is still in effect, which gets more rapid as the effect is about to expire. The remake introduces a yellow, star-shaped variant called a Star Switch.
