Its first appearance was in the original Mario Bros. game in which it would float near the bottom center of the screen and could be hit three times before it would completely disappear. Hitting the Pow Block would count as one hit on every character on screen. Standing Shell Creepers would be knocked onto their backs, Side Steppers would either become agitated or fall over depending on how many previous hits they took, on, and Fighter Flies would be knocked over if they were touching the ground at the time. Any enemies laying on their backs would be flipped back to their feet and either Mario or Luigi would be forced to jump. Later levels in the game stopped having the POW Block appear.

When hit, it damages all enemies in the screen, but only those that were on the ground. It performs the same function in Super Mario Bros. 2, but it can only be used once as the player has to throw it onto the ground to make a POW. In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, if Yoshi hits a POW block, all nearby enemies turn into stars. POW Blocks were most commonly won in Bonus Challenges, where they could be used anywhere afterwards, being called Anywhere POWs. In the Paper Mario series, the POW Block is an item that does two damage to all enemies (but much more in Super Paper Mario if the remote had been shaken with each corresponding prompt). It penetrates defense and makes enemies with shells (such as Koopa Troopas) turn over. It does not affect flying enemies, however, unless they are on the ceiling. The POW Block also appears twice in the Super Smash Bros. series. In Super Smash Bros., the POW Block appears randomly on the Mushroom Kingdom stage. Attacking it damages everyone on the ground and sends them skyward. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, it appears in the Mario Bros. stage. Unlike in Super Smash Bros., though, this POW Block doesn't damage anyone, but merely sends them skyward somewhat. Like in the original Mario Bros., it is mainly used to knock over Shellcreepers and Sidesteppers. The POW Block is a new item in Mario Kart Wii. When dispatched by a player, other racers will find POW Blocks above their karts. They must jump three times (in rhythm) to destroy the POW Block or they will spin out and lose speed. In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, POW returns as a item. Like in Super Paper Mario, Mario, Luigi, or one of the Toads can throw POW and KO all enemies around and drop coins from the sky. It first appears in world 1-2.

POW Blocks didn't make an appearance in Super Mario Bros. but did return in Super Mario Bros. 2. In this game, the POW Block was an item that sat on the ground and could be picked up by the player's character. When thrown to the ground, the POW Block would defeat every minor enemy on screen. Unlike in Mario Bros., the POW Block only had one use before it would disappear. Super Mario Bros. 3 briefly has the POW Block appear in a mini-game mimicking the original Mario Bros.. In this game, the POW Block had the same abilities as the original game. In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, POW Blocks can be used by Yoshi to destroy all on-screen enemies, transforming them into stars. In Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario, POW Blocks appear as items that can be used to damage all enemies in battle, except those flying in mid-air.
