Talk:Rotating Block

Official name? I heard they were called Flip Blocks.


 * ...And I heard they were called Rotating Blocks. Weird... --YellowYoshi398 14:29, 2 April 2007 (EDT)

I thought that it was Turn Block, not Turning Block.

Turning Block sounds really unnoficial, especially since not all Turning Blocks turn.
 * They received different names, I'm sure they were called "Turning Blocks" somewhere as well, can't find the source now though. In the SMW manual, they are called "Rotating Blocks". 07:33, 7 January 2010 (EST)
 * If we don't have a source yet for "Turning Blocks", but we do for "Rotating Blocks", shouldn't we move it to Rotating Blocks? --
 * Yep.

Split Rotating Block and Stretch Block
I was reading a Mario Mania scan, when I found the name "Stretch Block" in the page with the Yoshi's Island 3 level info. Mario Mania was made by Nintendo, so it's an official source of names and other things. My proposal is this: split Stretch Block info from the Rotating Block, because it's formally counted as a different block. If we create this article, we will improve it. Also, in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Stretch Blocks appear, not Rotating Blocks.

What exactly is a Stretch Block?

Yeah are they the ones that you ride or are they the regular rotating blocks


 * Stretch Blocks are the ones that you ride: they constantly extend (horizontally or vertically) in 5 blocks and retract. In SMW they are light yellow, in NSMB Wii they are orange.
