They are [[Warp Pipe|pipes]] that release strong currents of water. In the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series, the water pushes the player character. In some contexts, Jet Pipes can be used to avoid an oncoming enemy, such as [[Cheep Chomp]]s or [[Mega Unagi]]s. In the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, the pipes appear in the underwater portions of certain courses. Driving into their streams brings the player character to a higher routes, and can be used to avoid sinking down into [[pit]]s.
| |
|
| |
|
| [[Current]]s have appeared independently from Jet Pipes. In games where they cooccur, the natural currents are usually hazards that pull the player character into the level's [[Pit|abyss]], costing them a [[extra life|life]].

| Bubble-jet pipes first appear in the underwater levels of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', in which they expel jets of water that push [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] as they [[swim]]. All bubble-jet pipes are blue. The first one is introduced in [[Water Land]]'s [[World 3-1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 3-1]]. Mario and Luigi can overcome the currents if they are in their [[Frog Mario|Frog forms]] by pressing {{button|NES|B}}, and some of them can even be physically entered like normal [[Warp Pipe]]s to reach hidden [[sub-area]]s.

|
| In ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the bubble-jet pipes are green, like the normal pipes found on land. In addition to the original levels, two bubble-jet pipes appear in [[An Aqueous Adventure]] in [[World-e]].

| Bubble-jet pipes appear in underwater courses in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', first appearing in [[World 3-1 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-1]]. In this game, the pipes appear in a variety of colors and are visually indistinguishable from the Warp Pipes found on land. In several courses, the currents from the bubble-jet pipes must be carefully navigated in order to collect a [[Star Coin]]. In [[World 3-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-3]] and [[World 4-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|4-3]], pressing a [[? Switch]] located near the pipes turns the currents off for a temporary period of time. In [[World 8-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-3]], bubble-jet pipes can be used to outpace an oncoming [[Mega Unagi]].

| Bubble-jet pipes appear in underwater and beach courses in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' and function as they did in prior games. Though largely restricted to [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4]], a tropical archipelago, they first appear in [[World 1-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 1-4]]. Some bubble-jet pipes are positioned in ways that make collecting all of a course's [[Star Coin]]s more difficult. Like the pipes above ground, the bubble-jet pipes occur in a variety of colors.

|
| In World 4, bubble-jet pipes occur in [[World 4-1 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4-1]] and [[World 4-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 4-4]]. They subsequently occur in [[World 8-4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 8-4]].
| | ===Items and objects=== |
| | |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
| |
| Similar to their appearance in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', bubble-jet pipes primarily appear in the tropical [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3]], but first appear in [[World 1-5 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 1-5]]. In World 3, they appear in [[World 3-2 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-2]] and [[World 3-A (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-A]]. They subsequently appear in [[World 4-5 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 4-5]]. Yellow bubble-jet pipes line the leftmost wall of the corridor that makes up World 3-A, generating a continuous stream of water throughout the course.
| |
| | |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. Deluxe''====
| |
| [[File:NSLU Cheep Chomp Chase Luigi Sighting.png|200px|thumb|[[Fire Mario|Fire Luigi]] surrounded by Jet Pipes in Cheep Chomp Chase.]]
| |
| As in previous games, Jet Pipes generate currents of water in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. They first occur in the hidden course of [[Acorn Plains]], [[Blooper's Secret Lair]], before subsequently appearing in [[Dragoneel's Undersea Grotto]], [[Porcupuffer Falls]], and [[Swim for Your Life!]] In the latter three, the player character can take advantage of the Jet Pipes to out pace [[Dragoneel]]s, [[Porcupuffer]]s, and [[Cheep Chomp]]s, respectively. ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' is the first use of the English name "Jet Pipe" for this object.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', Jet Pipes first appear in [[Cheep Chomp Chase]]. Some of the ones in this course are fastened to giant [[Empty Block]]s and pivot back and forth. They can be used to evade an oncoming Cheep Chomp, reach a [[Star Coin]], or advance in the course. The finally appear in [[Star Coin Deep Dive]], another course that includes Cheep Chomps. Jet Pipes appear unaltered in the [[Nintendo Switch]] release ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''.
| |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''====
| |
| Jet Pipes occur only in the underwater courses of [[Petal Isles]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''. The water expelled from the Jet Pipes can direct the player character into nearby enemies or towards safety, but the player character can move against the currents if they have the [[Badge (Super Mario Bros. Wonder)#Dolphin Kick|Dolphin Kick badge]] equipped. This badge also makes certain Jet Pipes accessible for entry like [[Warp Pipe]]s.
| |
| | |
| In [[Leaping Smackerel]], the first course to include Jet Pipes, they appear after the first [[Checkpoint Flag]] alongside a group of [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]-dwelling [[Sluglug]]s and a [[Smackerel]]. Jet Pipes also appear in [[Robbird Cove]], one of which leads to a hidden [[10-flower coin]]. There is a Jet Pipe in [[Wiggler Race Swimming!]], alongside {{wp|sea sponge|sponge}}-like creatures that expel strong [[current]]s.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Kart'' series===
| |
| ====''Mario Kart 7''====
| |
| ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' is the first ''Mario Kart'' title to include drivable underwater portions of the courses, and the first one to include bubble-jet pipes. They appear in [[3DS Wario Shipyard|Wario Shipyard]] and [[3DS Piranha Plant Slide|Piranha Plant Slide]]. The ones that come out of the sides of the course push the player character similarly to [[wind]]. There is one Jet Pipe in Piranha Plant Slide that allows the character to reach the [[Dash Panel]] over the last [[Piranha Plant]] before the [[Glide Ramp]].
| |
| | |
| ====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
| |
| In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', Jet Pipes appear in [[Dolphin Shoals]] and {{classic|3DS|Piranha Plant Slide}}. Unlike ''Mario Kart 7'', the player character can perform a [[Jump Boost]] at the arc of the stream. In Dolphin Shoals, Jet Pipes are necessary to reach the back of the [[Maw-Ray|Unagi]] on the course and also provide the player character access to a shortcut.
| |
| | |
| In the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'' DLC for ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', {{classic-link|Tour|Amsterdam Drift}} is the first course of the [[Fruit Cup]] that was made available in most regions on 9 March, 2023 and 12 April, 2023 in China. The course combines elements of the different Amsterdam Drift courses from ''Mario Kart Tour'', including the Jet Pipes in Amsterdam Drift 2.
| |
| | |
| ====''Mario Kart Tour''====
| |
| [[File:MKT 3DS Wario Shipyard pipe current.jpg|200px|left|thumb|A Jet Pipe in Wario Shipyard.]]
| |
| Jet Pipes initially appear in the [[classic course]]s 3DS Wario Shipyard and 3DS Piranha Plant Slide in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]''. They function as they did in ''Mario Kart 8'', with the giant Jet Pipe in Wario Shipyard allowing the player character to perform a [[Jump Boost]], something they could not do in the ''Mario Kart 7''. Jet Pipes also appear in {{classic-link|GCN|Daisy Cruiser|Daisy Cruiser R/T}} and [[Tour Amsterdam Drift|Amsterdam Drift 2]], a course integrated into ''Mario Kart Tour'' after it had launched. In addition to those described, there are courses in ''Mario Kart Tour'' where the [[current]]s do not come out of Jet Pipes.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party 10''===
| |
| Currents in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' are interactive objects in [[Blooper Blastoff]] that can push away the player's Blooper submarine.
