The green block appears as an item under the name '''Metal Box''' in every installment of the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. Much like in ''Super Mario 64'', this item causes characters to become coated in metal for a short period of time. Unlike in ''Super Mario 64'', they have to simply grab or directly hit the box to become metal, as opposed to [[jump]]ing under it and causing the Metal Cap to emerge from it. They become heavier and fall faster, making it harder to directly KO them by blasting them away, but making it harder for them get back on the stage. Getting hit causes the duration of the power-up to shorten. The [[Final Smash]] forms [[Giga Bowser]], [[Wario-Man]], [[Mega Evolution (Lucario)|Mega Lucario]], and [[Giga Mac]] are completely unaffected by Metal Boxes. Also, when a character becomes metal, their voice is removed, unlike ''Super Mario 64'' when Metal Mario kept his voice.

Every game in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series that features [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophies]] has one of the Metal Boxes. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', the trophy erroneously states the Metal Box appears in ''Super Mario 64 DS'', which replaced the colored caps with multiple characters, their Power Flowers all being found in red blocks.
