In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, they are found in World 6-1 and in World 8-4. Unlike normal Spikes, Stone Spikes can only throw their spiked balls downwards, rather than forwards or backwards. They can be defeated just like normal Spikes: by jumping on its head, by throwing a fireball at it, or by freezing them using an Ice Flower or a Penguin Suit.

They appear in Dry Desert Mushrooms in Layer-Cake Desert, where they are the main obstacles.

In New Super Luigi U, they appear in Stone Spike Conveyors where they are once again the main obstacle.
