'''Cogs''' | '''Cogs''', also known as '''gears''', are large obstacles and platforms in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise that perpetually rotate. In many appearances, they can crush the player character if they are between its teeth. | ||
==History== | ==History== | ||
===''Yoshi's Story''=== | ===''Super Mario'' series=== | ||
====''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins''==== | |||
In ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', gears<ref>"''Leap from one gear to the next and watch for sharp objects.''" - ''Nintendo Power'' Volume 43, page 48.</ref> appear as [[Semisolid Platform]]s in the [[Fiery Blocks|first stage]] of the [[Mario Zone]]. There are both horizontal and vertical types. There are large horizontal gears that are motionless and have no platform gimmick, and small revolving ones that move [[Mario]] from left to right. The vertical gears also come in a slightly bigger motionless variety and one that moves Mario downward until he reaches a midway point that makes him fall off. | |||
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''==== | |||
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', cogs can be found in {{world-link|1|castle|World 1-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. If the player remains under one, they are squished and lose a life. The player is required to platform across them to reach the boss door. Additionally, cog-like wheels can be found in {{world-link|6|airship|World 6-Airship (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. Cogs come in two different sizes. | |||
====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''==== | |||
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', cogs appear in [[Crushing-Cogs Tower]], where they serve as platforms that players can use to reach the top of the [[tower]] and fight [[Boom Boom]]. In ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', cogs appear in Crushing-Cogs Tower's equivalent, [[Flame-Gear Tower]], as well as in [[Hot Cogs]]. In the [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|Nintendo Switch enhanced port]], cogs return in all of the aforementioned levels. | |||
====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''==== | |||
In ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|Nintendo Switch reissue]], cogs made out of cookies appear prominently in the third course of [[World Bowser]], [[Cookie Cogworks]]. They serve as platforms that must be traversed horizontally and vertically in order to reach the end of the course. Some cookie cogs in the vertical sections have [[Piranha Plant]]s nested inbetween the cogs' teeth, which have to be avoided while climbing the cogs. A cookie cog is also located at the end of the course that allow Mario and friends to reach the top of the [[Goal Pole]]. Another rotating cookie cog, laid on its side, appears in a hidden area found in the distance beyond the Goal Pole's area. | |||

They are wooden and can make a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] lose a life only if the Yoshi is trapped between two of them. Most of them are singular and only move in response to the Yoshi's movements. | '''Sprockets'''<ref>{{cite|author=Leung, Jason; Munson, Terry; Pelland, Scott|title=''Yoshi's Story'' Player's Guide|language=American English|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1998|page=[https://archive.org/details/YoshisStoryOfficialPlayersGuide/page/n113/mode/2up 112 and 113]}}</ref> appear in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' in the [[Mecha Castle]].
