==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
Stretch Blocks first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', where they serve as bridges in certain [[level]]s, and are made up of blocks that resemble pale-colored versions of [[Rotating Block]]s.
 
Stretch Blocks also appear in two [[World-e]] levels in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'': [[Slip Slidin' Away (Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3)|Slip Slidin' Away]] and [[Rich with Ropes]]. In this game, they actually use the same yellow color as regular Rotating Blocks from ''Super Mario World''.
 
Stretch Blocks make another appearance in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', where they appear at the end of [[World 9-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9-2]]. In this game, they are colored orange and move up or down as they extend and retract.
 
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', Stretch Blocks appear in [[Rock-Candy Mines]] as an integral part of navigating the [[world]]; they are color-coded red and blue, and they extend or retract depending on which colored switch is hit. They also appear in some levels with their ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' appearance. This time, however, they blink just before they stretch or retract.
 
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
Stretch Blocks appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' on the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage. They have the same appearance as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. U''. Stretch Blocks appear in the [[Acorn Plains]] section of the stage.
