In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its 3DS port]], Spike Traps are classified as block objects. Depending on the game style and theme, Spike Traps can change appearance, most notably in the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''Super Mario World'' game styles, where in the underwater theme, the Spike Trap is replaced by a [[Jelectro]] or a [[zeldawiki:Sea Urchin|Sea Urchin]] from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'' (which in turn is based on the [[wikirby:Gordo|Gordo]] from the [[wikirby:Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], and in this appearance acts more like one due to being invincible), respectively. Additionally, shaking a Spike Trap in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' ground theme makes a train sound.<ref>GameXplain. April 4, 2016.

Spike Traps reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', functioning as they did in the previous ''Super Mario Maker'' games with a slightly wider hitbox. The ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' style replaces them with [[Spike Block]]s.

Spikes in the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]] instantly causes a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] to lose a life, unlike with other games. The games also feature [[thorn]]s, which function identically to spikes. If Yoshi touches spikes, he is shown spinning and then collapsing; not counting when [[Baby Mario]] is snatched away from Yoshi, this is only one of two ways where Yoshi's death is shown onscreen, the other being from touching lava.
===''Yoshi's Story''===
''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' features living, jumping [[Spike (Yoshi's Story)|Spikes]] in [[Bone Dragon Pit]] and [[Magma Castle]].
''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' features living, jumping [[Spike (Yoshi's Story)|Spikes]] in [[Bone Dragon Pit]] and [[Magma Castle]].
Unlike other games, spikes are fatal, as simply touching them causes a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] to lose a life. A more common sharp object, a [[thorn]], also appears in the ''[[Yoshi's Island (series)|Yoshi's Island]]'' series. In the same series, falling into lava or spikes are the only ways Yoshi's death is shown on-screen (not counting when the baby is snatched away); the former shows him spinning and collapsing, while the latter shows him flying off-screen.

Spikes are hazards in the [[Yoshi's Fruit Cart]] minigame in ''[[Nintendo Land]]''. If the [[Yoshi Cart]] touches a spike, the player loses a life. Spikes can be retracted by using a [[Lever Switch|lever]]. When retracted, the Yoshi Cart can safely walk on them. They first appear in Gate 23.
