==Description==
Mushroom Platforms are tall, spotted platforms shaped like a toadstool. In most of their appearances, Mushroom Platforms are usually a type of Semisolid Platform, and they are usually found in sky-themed levels or levels taking place high above ground level.

Unlike later Super Mario games, Mushroom Platforms are not a Semisolid Platform, meaning they cannot be jumped through from below. In All Night Nippon: Super Mario Bros., the stalk of a Mushroom Platform is broken up into segments.

These Mushroom Platforms appear to be used as torches, as they are commonly found with a flame on top, and extinguishing the flame usually causes a coin to come out. One of the Mushroom Platforms bears a golden cap, and the Pianta Village mayor is trapped here during the episode The Goopy Inferno.
===New Super Mario Bros.===
Mushroom Platforms appear throughout the sky-themed levels, where they are used as the primary platform. Mushroom Platforms first appear in World 1-3. Most Mushroom Platforms are stationary, but a few have an added behavior of swaying back and forth, occasionally moving across the screen while doing so.
A few Mushroom Platform variations were introduced: Mushroom Trampoline, which has a pink, bouncy cap; Stretch Shroom, which has an expanding and contracting cap; and Sinking and Rising Mushrooms, which move up or down if stood upon.

Mushroom Platforms are an unlockable course element, and are among those to be unlocked on day 7 of playing the game. Mushroom Platforms are placeable objects in all styles. They are featured in a variety of colors, and a Mushroom Platform's height and length can be adjusted in the level editor. When Mushroom Platforms are placed underwater, they receive a coral-like appearance. If a Mushroom Platform is placed in airships in any style except for New Super Mario Bros. U, its stalk is changed to a mechanical-like appearance, and in the Super Mario Bros. style, the cap becomes metallic. In each style, shaking a Mushroom Platform can toggle its colors between red, yellow/white, and green.
