Spiked ? Block

A '''Spiked ? Block' is a type of block that appears in New Super Mario Bros.'' It is similar to a regular ? Block; however, it has spikes at the top. It also spins around, requiring the player to mind their timing to avoid getting hurt. Hitting or ground-pounding the non-spiked side turns the block into an Empty Block.

Spiked ? Blocks appear only in World 6-3, where four of them are seen, three of which contain power-ups.

Trivia

 * If Mario or Luigi ground-pounds a Spiked ? Block right as it begins to spin around, he will be flung away by the spin.
