Red Switch Block

Red Switch Block is a type of block that appears in the game New Super Mario Bros. Wii. It appears only in the levels 3-4 and 3-5. When this block is first encountered, it appears as a dotted outline. To activate this block, the player must find the secret exit in level 3-4 and continue on to level 3-5. After completeing these levels, the player has to stomp on a Red Switch that is located in the overworld, which will activate the Red Switch Block. When activated, the Red Switch Block appears as a normal block that is colored all in red. The main flagpole for level 3-4 will then become accessible, and the player will be able to continue to World 3's Castle. It is necessary for the player to activate the Red Switch Blocks in order to complete level 3-4. A similar situation is found in the game Super Mario World, where the player has to travel to a Switch Palace and press a ! Switch to activate the ! Block of the coresponding color.
