“Whoa—careful!”

—Talking Flower,Super Mario Bros. Wonder

Dropdown Countdown Lifts aresemisolid yellowplatforms that are featured in the levelCountdown to Drop Down inSuper Mario Bros. Wonder. They vary in width, and some of them are found moving ontracks. These platforms show a number from 1-10; this number will decrease when a player or object lands on them. When the counter reaches one, the platform turns red. Once it reaches zero, the color goes to a dark gray and the platform gives out and starts spinning in a manner reminiscent of aRotating Block, which causes anything on top of it to fall through. It will return back to its original state a few seconds after this. If a Dropdown Countdown Lift is left alone after it is stepped on, but before its number reaches zero, it will start quickly counting back up to its original value.

Dropdown Countdown Lifts are strongly reminiscent ofCountdown Platforms fromSuper Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, another semisolid platform which counts down how many times the player can step on it. They function slightly differently, however, as Dropdown Countdown Lifts will count down when the player steps on them, while Countdown Platforms will not do so untilYoshi steps off of them.
