==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
Small pipes first appear in [[World 2-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 2-1]] in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. They appear with a purple coloration and do not serve any purpose other than being decorative structures. Small pipes also appear in [[Pipe Land|World 7]], where they are green and may have [[Muncher]]s pop out of them. Horizontal [[cannon]]s and a type of forward-facing [[Burner|Rocket Engine]] resemble dark small pipes.


'''Mini Warp Pipes'''{{ref needed}} are tiny [[Warp Pipe]]s that require the player to be [[Mini Mario (form)|tiny]] in order to enter. Half the size of a regular Warp Pipe, they made their debut in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
====''Super Mario World''====
Small pipes reappear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', serving the same purpose as in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. They are occasionally seen supporting [[Pipe Cannon]]s.


== History ==
====''New Super Mario Bros.'' series====
Small pipes in ''New Super Mario Bros.'' and its sequels often lead to rooms with a hidden [[Star Coin]] and usually also shortcut rooms with coins that can be used to skip some parts of the level. As of ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', exiting from a small pipe leads players out of a normal-sized one, likely due to the fact that other players not in the correct form can exit the same pipe in multiplayer.


=== ''Super Mario'' series ===
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', a small pipe is required to reach the secret exit in [[Grinding-Stone Tower]].


==== ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' / ''Super Mario World'' ====
====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
Small pipes reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' in the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' game style as the ground tiles in the forest and desert themes, being green and purple respectively.


Mini Warp Pipes first appear in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', where they appear as decoration. They serve the same purpose in ''[[Super Mario World]]''.
===''Super Paper Mario''===
Small pipes appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. The player has to use [[Dottie]] to shrink their character so they can enter them, similar to the use of Mini Mushrooms in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games.


==== ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series ====
===''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''===
A single small pipe appears along [[Bowser Path]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|its remake]]. Mario must use the [[Mini-Mario]] technique to enter it and reach the [[? Block]] containing the [[POW Mush Jam]].


Mini Warp Pipes appear in every game of the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series starting with ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' itself, where they make their first functional appearance. They act like normal pipes, but can only be used by players in [[Mini Mario (form)|miniature form]]. [[Star Coin]]s are often hidden inside rooms that can only be accessed via these pipes.
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
 
Nonfunctional small pipes appear on the [[Yoshi's Island (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Yoshi's Island]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', supporting a larger diagonal Warp Pipe. Their appearance is based on ''[[Super Mario World]]''.
==== ''Super Mario Maker 2'' ====
 
Mini Warp Pipes reappear in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' in the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' game style. They appear as ground tiles in the forest and desert themes, being green and purple respectively.
 
=== ''Super Paper Mario'' ===
 
Mini Warp Pipes appear in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. The player has to use [[Dottie]] to shrink Mario so he can enter them, similar to the use of Mini Mushrooms in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games.
 
=== ''Super Smash Bros.'' series ===
 
Nonfunctional Mini Warp Pipes appear on the [[Yoshi's Island (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Yoshi's Island]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', supporting a larger diagonal Warp Pipe. Their appearance is based on ''[[Super Mario World]]''.

* In ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' and all subsequent ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games, when [[Mini Mario (form)|a mini character]] enters a mini Warp Pipe, they will exit out of a normal-sized one. This is likely due to the fact that other players not in the correct form can exit the same pipe in multiplayer.
