Roto-Disc



Roto-Discs were one of the more annoying traps Mario encountered in Super Mario Bros. 3. Though not technically a living creature, the Roto-Disc still posed a hazard to Mario. While Mario could safely stand on the ball that the Roto-Disc revolved around, touching the Roto-Disc would hurt him. Sometimes they would come in pairs as well. The only way for Mario to eliminate a Roto-Disc was to Jump on it while in Statue Mario form, only possible while wearing a Tanooki Suit. They're usually positioned so that a small passage will become a death trap if Mario doesn't time his moves.
