Super Note Blocks[1] (formerly known as Magic Note Blocks[2][3] or Red Jump Blocks[4]) are a type of hidden Note Block that appears in Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario 3D Land. When a player presses the jump button just after landing on one, they ascend into a Coin Heaven.
In Super Mario Bros. 3, where Super Note Blocks are pink (or white in ice levels) in the original version and orange in its reissues in Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3, the area afterwards usually auto-scrolls to the end, and it has a large number of coins, as well as a 1-Up Mushroom occasionally. They appear only in World 1-3, World 1-5, World 3-7, World 6-4, and World 7-8.
In Super Mario 3D Land, where Super Note Blocks are twice as wide, have white notes instead of black, and flash a rainbow of colors, the following area usually has a Super Star used to run through a group of enemies, or a platforming section that requires use of the Nintendo 3DS's stereoscopic 3D, in order to receive a Star Medal at the end. They appear in World 1-3, World 2-4, World 3-4, World 4-1, World 4-3, World 5-3, and World 7-3.
Super Note Blocks are replaced by Cloud Cannons in Super Mario 3D World.
