The '''8 bits''' (sometimes called the '''8 bit Club''') is the name of an organization of [[Shy Guy]]s, [[Ninji]]s, [[Beezo]]s, [[Tweeter]]s, [[Snifit]]s and many other creatures that aided [[Wart]] in his conquest of the land of dreams, [[Subcon]], in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. Their name is a reference to the size of the Ricoh 2A07 processor's CPU registers: 8 bits. [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Toad]], and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] encountered members of the 8 Bits in almost every location they visited, be it in the desert, clouds, or tundra. Shy Guys are the most numerous members of the 8 bits, and they or their giant-sized brothers are seen in every level. The Snifits are also found in most levels, but Beezos only appear a few times. Also Ninjis and Tweeters were quite common, but unlike them, Flurrys only appeared in the ice levels along with the whales. In the remake ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', a new subspecies of Shy Guys and Ninjis were introduced to the 8-Bits as '''Giant Shy Guys''' and '''Giant Ninjis'''. Some of the species in the 8-bits later joined the Koopa Troop, such as Shy guys and Snifits. Many were King Koopa's minions in [[the Super Mario Bros Super Show]].

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 on ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]''
