Ground-Pound Switches are first seen in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. Upon Mario or Luigi pressing one of these switches, a variety of things can happen, mainly making [[Star Bit]]s or [[coin]]s appear. There are also timed Ground-Pound Switches, tree stumps that have similar effects, and gray Ground-Pound Switches that make walls fall down, making other areas accessible.

Ground-Pound Switches are also shown in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', having the same functions like in the first game. There is also a [[blue switch (Super Mario Galaxy 2)|new function for Ground-Pound Switches]] in this game. If Mario or Luigi ground-pounds one of the switches, the screen turns grayscale, and the environment and enemies on the respective planet slow down greatly. This new function appears in the [[Space Storm Galaxy]], [[Clockwork Ruins Galaxy]], and [[Stone Cyclone Galaxy]], and it is useful in avoiding stage hazards that would be impossible to dodge otherwise.
