-'''Number Platforms''' (also known as '''Countdown Platforms''') are platforms that appear in the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' series]], specifically ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]''. They appear as a balance with a number labeled on them, with the number shown decreases by one every time something moves on them. When the number decreases to where zero would be, the entire platform instead vanishes in a puff of smoke. They typically range from a highest display of four to a lowest of one, but in ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', some go as high as nine. These platforms don't countdown if the player has Yoshi still on them; they only decrease if [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] steps off or jumps off them. They also can only be activated by Yoshi; every other object passes through them.

+'''Countdown Platforms''' are floating [[Semisolid Platform|semisolid platform]]s that appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' (and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]), ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]''. They resemble scales with a number labeled on each, this number decreasing by one every time something moves off them. Because of this, the counter will not go down when the player has a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] stand on them; it will decrease only when the Yoshi steps off or [[jump]]s off them. If the weight on the scale is removed when the counter is at one, the platform will vanish in a puff of smoke. Countdown Platforms typically range from a highest display of four to a lowest of one, but in ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', some go as high as nine. In most games, Countdown Platforms can be activated only by a Yoshi, and every other object passes through them. However, in ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', [[Koopa Shell|shell]]s can also trigger these platforms.
+[[Dropdown Countdown Lift]]s from ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' function very similarly to Countdown Platforms, both being semisolid platforms that count down how many times the player can step on them. However, the counter on a Dropdown Countdown Lift will decrease when stepped ''on'', rather than when stepped off.
