In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', they appear in the underwater sections of [[World 1-A (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-A]] and [[World 8-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-3]]. They appear as translucent yellow bubbles with an eight-spoked plantlike symbol on or inside them. Bumpers will bounce Mario in the opposite of the direction he ran into them from.

[[File:bumpers.png|thumb|left|300px|''New Super Mario Bros. U''-style Bumpers as seen in the ''Super Mario Maker'' update trailer]]
In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' (v1.30 or later) and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]'', Bumpers can be created by shaking a [[Grinder]] in editing mode. They are donut-shaped balloons that stay still in the air. When Mario jumps on one from above, it can bounce him higher similar to [[trampoline]]s and [[Note Block]]s; if Mario bumps into one from the side or below, it bounces Mario away. Enemies, objects, and projectiles are not affected by Bumpers and will freely pass through them.
