The '''Warp Zone''' is a hidden area that acts as a kind of teleportation system, connecting many [[world]]s to one place. For the most part, they are sectioned-off areas containing [[Warp Pipe]]s, although ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' featured [[Warp Zone (Super Mario Bros. 3)|an entire island]] as its Warp Zone. Instead of Warp Zones, ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' and two of its sequels feature [[Warp Cannon]]s accessed from secret exits in certain [[level]]s, each of which would launch [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] to a later world.

Certain [[jar]]s within [[Subspace]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' contain Subspace Warps, which automatically warp players to later worlds, without the use of an intermediary Warp Zone.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', the zone is a sectioned-off area containing [[Warp Pipe|pipes]] to different levels. There are three of them; one located in [[World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]] and two in [[World 4-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 4-2]]. The first gives the choice to warp to [[World 2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 2]], [[World 3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 3]], or [[World 4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 4]], and is located behind the pipe that leads to the [[Goal Pole|flagpole]]. In World 4-2, the zone behind the final pipe leads to [[World 5 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 5]] only. Instead, the player must find a secret [[Beanstalk]] in order to warp to [[World 6 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 6]], [[World 7 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 7]], or [[World 8 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 8]] (in ''[[VS. Super Mario Bros.]]'', the Warp Zone in that area only leads to World 6, meaning that there is no way for the player to skip all the way to World 8). The first Warp Zone also lets players perform the famous [[Minus World]] glitch. | In ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', the zone is a sectioned-off area containing [[Warp Pipe|pipes]] to different levels.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the Warp Zone is an island that can only be accessed via [[Recorder|Magic Whistle]], and is treated as the game's World 9. Like other games' Warp Zones, it connects to the other kingdoms of the [[Mushroom World]], although the zone itself is not completely interconnected; to access the top row, the player must warp from World 1; to access the middle row, the player must warp from Worlds 2-6; and to access the last row, the player must warp from Worlds 7-9 (using a | In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the Warp Zone is an island that can only be accessed via [[Recorder|Magic Whistle]], and is treated as the game's World 9.

Warp Zones also appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. They are in the same levels as they were in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'': in World 1-2 and World 4-2. However, there is only one orange pipe, and they only warp the player to the next world. | |||

It does not serve any real function other than to take the player back to the overworld. The Warp Zone is also mentioned by the defeated [[List of Sammer Guys#Warping Pipe|Warping Pipe]] [[Sammer Guy]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', who believes it to be a fabled place where great warriors (apparently people with incredible skill over Warp Pipes) tread. | ||
