Some Paddle Platforms, particularly those of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]], strictly move left and right, while others travel along paths or have a stationary pivot point. Either way, the player must walk on the platforms to make them start spinning. | ||

Paddle wheels make their debut in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]; while big ones first appear in the level [[Hop! Hop! Donut Lifts]] and then appear occasionally afterwards, small ones appear in [[Prince Froggy's Fort]], [[More Monkey Madness]], and [[Danger - Icy Conditions Ahead]]. While big paddle wheels are green in color, small ones are magenta in color. | Paddle wheels make their debut in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|its reissue]]; while big ones first appear in the level [[Hop!

Paddle Platforms return in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. This time, they are slightly less common; while ones of numerous colors and consisting of five or three platforms appear in the level [[Slime Drop Drama]], one appears near the end of [[Don't Fear the Spear]], one appears in a secret area of [[Lose the Lunge Fish]], and one with shorter platforms appears after the halfway point of [[Leapin' Lava Meltdown]]. They behave the same as in previous installments. | Paddle Platforms return in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''.

Paddle wheels make their debut in the ''Mario'' franchise in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', appearing in [[World 4-A (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 4-A]] and [[World 7-7 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-7]]. They behave the same as they do in the ''Yoshi'' franchise, although some move on [[poison (obstacle)|poison]] rather than tracks, and one can be shown falling off a track without an end point. A large, automatic counterclockwise-spinning version appears in {{world-link|2|towern|World 2-Tower (New Super Mario Bros.)}}. | Paddle wheels make their debut in the ''Super Mario'' franchise in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', appearing in [[World 4-A (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 4-A]] and [[World 7-7 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-7]].

===''Yoshi's Woolly World'' / ''Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World''=== | |||
Paddle Platforms reappear in ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' and [[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World|its port]], behaving the same as in previous installments. They are about as common as they were in ''Yoshi's New Island'' but made of yellow and green yarn; three appear in the first half of [[Rollin' Down the River]], one appears near the end of [[Frozen Solid and Chilled]], and two each appear near the beginning and near the end of [[Kamek's Last-Ditch Flyby]]. The ones in the latter two levels move horizontally despite not having any visible tracks, and the later one in the game is a long version. | |||
===''Yoshi's Crafted World''=== | |||
Paddle Platforms return in ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'', where they only appear in [[Spinwheel Shuffle]]. They move along horizontal and vertical tracks. One of them looks like a Ferris wheel. | |||
