The '''8 bits''' is the name of an organization of [[Shy Guy]]s, [[Tweeter]]s, [[Beezos]], [[Snifits]], and [[Phanto]]s that aided [[Wart]] in his conquest of the land of dreams, [[Subcon (place)|Subcon]], in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Toad (character)|Toad]], and [[Princess Peach]] encountered members of the 8 bits in almost every location they visited, be it in the desert, clouds, or tundra. Despite the fact that the 8 bits seemed to have a limitless amount of Shy Guys, Tweeters, [[Snifit]]s, [[Beezo]]s, and other enemies, they could all be easily defeated by simply picking them up and tossing them at other enemies.

The '''8 bits'''<ref>{{cite|language=en|publisher=Nintendo of America|date=1988|title=''Super Mario Bros. 2'' instruction booklet|page=23}}</ref> are a villainous group of creatures described as "a club from evil dreams" that aid [[Wart]] in his conquest of the dream world, [[Subcon]], in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. According to the former game, they are monsters summoned or corrupted by Wart with the help of the [[Dream Machine]]. Their name is a reference to the size of the Ricoh 2A03/2A07 processor's CPU registers: 8 bits. [[Mario]] and his friends (or Imajin's family in ''Doki Doki Panic'') encounter members of the 8 bits in almost every location they visit in Subcon. [[Shy Guy|Shyguy]]s are the most numerous members of the 8 bits, and they are seen in every area during Wart's conquest.


Some species of the 8 bits were repurposed in later games as part of [[Bowser's Minions]], such as [[Bob-omb|Bob-Omb]]s and [[Pokey]]s. With Wart's absence, they are [[Bowser|King Koopa]]'s minions instead in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]''
