[[File:Donut liftSM64.png|thumb|100px|A Falling Block in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'']]
Falling Blocks appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. These platforms resemble their two-dimensional counterparts, but are shown to be rather long (whereas ''Super Mario RPG'' previously showed confirmed "three-dimensional" Donut Blocks to be more square-shaped than rectangular). In [[Rainbow Ride]], most have to be [[jump]]ed over during the [[magic carpet]] ride and some serve as bridges to other parts of the level. Unlike in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Mario will have to distance himself between the Falling Block for them to regenerate.

Additionally, as Donut Blocks are absent in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World]]'', they have been given new sprites for those styles. Their ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' sprites have been updated, sporting a lighter color scheme.

====''Super Smash Bros. Melee''====
Donut Blocks are a recurring stage element in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]. They first appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', in the stage [[Rainbow Cruise]], where Donut Blocks use their ''Super Mario 64'' design, except they were made smaller in size compared to Mario. Unlike in both ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''Super Mario 64'', Donut Blocks regenerate instantly after falling and breaking. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Donut Blocks retain their role in the Rainbow Cruise stage, and they have a similar counterpart named [[smashwiki:Block#Drop Blocks|Drop Blocks]] that are used in [[smashwiki:Stage Builder|Stage Builder]] and certain stages of [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]. Later on, Donut Blocks also appear in the [[3D Land]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', and they also appear in the downloadable [[Super Mario Maker (stage)|Super Mario Maker stage]].

====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
Donut Blocks reappear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', in the returning Rainbow Cruise stage. Also, '''Drop Blocks''', blocks with a down-pointing triangle on them, act just like Donut Blocks. These blocks are only used in the Stage Builder and certain stages of [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]].
 
====''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' / ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
Donut Blocks also appear in the [[3D Land]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. They also appear in the downloadable [[Super Mario Maker (stage)|Super Mario Maker stage]].


===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', a few Donut Blocks can be found in [[Guffawha Ruins]]. In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', Donut Blocks only appear in the [[Flab Zone]], which are suspended over in the mucus. Luigi steps on these blocks, and they fall down into the mucus, causing him to fall into it as well, where he is rescued by [[Princess Lipid]]. ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', Donut Blocks appear in area B of [[Dreamy Neo Bowser Castle]]. They retain their colors from the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games, but are much thinner, more stretched and rounder this time around. They function similarly to ''Super Mario 3D Land'', where, once they are stepped on, they turn red and fall after a short time.

===''Mario vs. Donkey Kong''===
===''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series===
Donut Blocks appear in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', where they function the same as in previous games.
====''Mario vs. Donkey Kong''====
Donut Blocks appear in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', functioning identically as in other ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' platformers.


===''Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis''===
====''Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis''====
Donut Blocks appear in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]'', being introduced in [[Magnet Mania (Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis)|Magnet Mania]]. They do not turn red when a [[Mini]] walks over them, and regenerate shortly after falling. To keep a Mini on a Donut Block, the player must either stop the Mini or quickly and continuously move the Mini left and right. Donut Blocks allow a Mini to traverse [[Spike Trap|Spike]]s and pits, as well as descend from heights that would destroy the Mini if it simply fell down.
