A Warp Cannon[1] (alternatively not capitalized),[2] also simply known as Cannon,[3] is an object introduced in New Super Mario Bros. It is a type of cannon that can be entered like a Warp Pipe to take the player character to a certain later world, similarly to Warp Zones from earlier entries of the Super Mario series. Warp Cannons are unlocked by reaching a secret Goal Pole at the end of certain levels.
History
Super Mario series
New Super Mario Bros.
Warp Cannons appear in New Super Mario Bros. The secret exits in levels World 1-
Tower and World 2-A unlock a Warp Cannon to World 5; the secret exit of World 3-
Ghost House to World 6, the secret exit of World 4-Ghost House to World 7, and the secret exit of World 5-Ghost House to World 8. Warp Cannons are timed and cannot be exited without using them. The destination world is visible in a Warp Cannon area.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Warp Cannons look different but function identically in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Both World 1-3 and World 2-6 unlock the Warp Cannon to World 5; World 3-
Ghost House and World 4-
Tower to World 6; and both World 5-Ghost House and World 6-6 to World 8.
New Super Mario Bros. 2
Warp Cannons are different in New Super Mario Bros. 2. They are colored blue instead of black. The secret exit of World 1-
Tower unlocks the Warp Cannon to World Mushroom; the secret exit of World 3-Tower or World 
Mushroom-B to World Flower; and the secret exit of World 
Flower-A to World 6. After Mario or Luigi enter a Warp Cannon, a countdown starts before shooting them forward into a nighttime environment reminiscent of the black backdrop at the end of levels in Super Mario Bros. 3. The player character dashes uncontrollably. There are enemies to avoid along the way. A sign appears pointing right is at the end, leading out of the area and into the next world. Every cannon stage has a Red Coin challenge that unlocks a Gold Flower when completed. Warp Cannon stages never have Assist Blocks unlike other levels.
Mario Sports Mix
Warp Cannons appear in Mario Sports Mix. They launch the player character in alternate routes to other areas in the Flower Cup tournament.
Fortune Street
Cannons in Fortune Street are used on the Yoshi's Island, Delfino Plaza, and Bowser's Castle boards to blast the player character to another square also having a character.
