| '''Amps''' are small electrified metal balls that have appeared as enemies throughout the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise. Their name stems from "{{wp|ampere}}" (often shortened to "amp"), the standard unit of measurement for the flow of electrical currents. They first appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', though they resemble the earlier [[Spark]] enemy, having a similar appearance and behavior to its ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' rendition. | | '''Amps''' are small, electrified metal balls who have appeared as enemies throughout the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series. Their name stems from "[[wikipedia:Ampere|ampere]]" (often shortened to "amp"), the standard unit of measurement for the flow of electrical currents. |
| | |
| Amps are usually depicted with joyful eyes and a smiling mouth with white lips. They were originally silver-colored, sported white {{wp|Manga iconography#Head and face|"cross-popping" veins}}, and their mouth was solid red; this appearance was last used in ''[[Mario Party Advance]]''. Since ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', they were redesigned to have wider yellow eyes and a larger mouth with a visible interior and tongue, also becoming black rather than grayish and losing the angry veins. In ''Super Mario Galaxy'' and ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', they are smaller black orbs with simplified red eyes and mouth. As of ''Dr. Mario World'', they have become silver again, but keep all other updates to their design from ''Super Mario 64 DS'', albeit slightly tweaked.

| | Amps make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and are featured in several levels throughout ''Super Mario 64'' and its remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. Similar to [[Li'l Sparky|Li'l Sparkie]]s and [[Hothead]]s, they move around objects and platforms, and if [[Mario]] comes into contact with one, he will be shocked and lose one wedge of health. There is no possible way to defeat Amps in this game. Amps can be found in [[Bowser in the Dark World]], [[Shifting Sand Land]], [[Vanish Cap Under the Moat]], [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], [[Tick Tock Clock]], [[Rainbow Ride]], and [[Bowser in the Sky]]. While being electrocuted, Mario will flash and become immobile for about one second. |

| | Amps reappear as an uncommon enemy in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', in several [[Tower]] levels. In this game, they appear mostly in groups, and if Mario comes in contact with one, he will be shocked. They can only be defeated with a [[Mega Mushroom]] or [[Starman]]. They will lose their electricity for a moment if they shock Mario or [[Luigi]]. |
|
| |
|
| Exclusively in the [[Nintendo 64]] version, in the pyramid of [[Shifting Sand Land]], there are two Amps that, instead of circling around objects, grow from thin air while rotating in place, eventually pursuing Mario slowly if he stays nearby and then disappearing after a brief period. These are made into standard circling Amps in the DS version.

| In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', where they appear as the main obstacles in [[Motor Rooter]], as well as in the minigame's reappearance in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''. Indicated by shockwaves on the central map, these Amps form an electrical current that covers the path except for one tile, and they slow down players that are hit by them and their electrical currents.

| ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' features the [[Sparky Sticker]], which is a sticker of an Amp that players can deploy on the ground to serve as a trap. Once deployed, it blends with the spaces, hiding until a player passes over it. When players pass over it, they lose ten coins as well as the effect of a [[Mini Mushroom]] and [[Mega Mushroom]]. | | In ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', the [[Sparky Sticker]] was made as a sticker of an Amp.

| Amps are the main obstacles in [[Shock Absorbers (Mario Party 5)|Shock Absorbers]] in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', where touching one loses the minigame. Players are trapped in a small arena where there are multiple Amps that move around. As in ''Mario Party 3'', these Amps can also form a line of electricity, where their indication to perform this attack happens when they stop in place and begin to emit electricity. Amps on the borders of the course form a permanent barrier of electricity.
| | They also appear as orbs in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', but they were referred to by the traditional name of "Amps". They are also the main obstacle in [[Shock Absorbers (Mario Party 5)|Shock Absorbers]]. |

| |
| Amps appear in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' as the [[Zap Orb]]. Once a player passes over a set Zap Orb, they would lose five coins for each space they moved beyond it for the rest of their turn. Amps are the main enemy in the [[Circuit Maximus]] mini-game, where players need to make a lap around a circular course, where the number of Amps progressively gets bigger the more rooms players pass through. Some Amps are stationary while other Amps are moving obstacles. | |

| Amp appears in [[Shroom City (Mario Party Advance)|Shroom City]] mode in ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', gambling in [[Town Game Room B]]. He has a habit of speaking in electricity-based puns, such as saying "Shocking!" after saying that a lot can be won at the room. According to his description, he loves to play games, though he angers easily. When said Game Room is entered, Amp notices the player and asks for help. If the player accepts, he explains that he has been trying to play the games at the game room for a long time, but he cannot win a single game. He hopes that if the player wins in his stead, he might start being luckier. In exchange, the player gets to keep the game that he has been losing in, [[Match 'Em]]. If the player wins more [[coin]]s than what is started with, Amp excitedly says that his luck's finally going to change and wonders if the player is the [[Kamek|Game Mage]] before saying goodbye. The end of the game states that the Amp is able to "hit a hot streak".
| | A single [[Amp (Mario Party Advance)|Amp]] appears in ''[[Mario Party Advance]]''. There, it appears as a citizen of [[Town Area]] and needs help in winning a game in [[Town Game Room B]] to end his losing streak. Once the player wins the minigame, [[Match 'Em]], they win the minigame as a reward. Amps also appear in the minigames [[Amplifried]], [[Cloud Climb]] and [[Broom Zoom]] as enemies. |

|
| Amps also appear in the minigames [[Amplifried]], [[Cloud Climb]], and [[Broom Zoom]] as hazards, where they continuously emit electricity that harms the player. In Amplifried, they serve as the main obstacles, where the main goal of the game is to avoid them. Their attack pattern in this minigame is somewhat similar to their appearance in Shock Absorbers from ''Mario Party 5'', where they can move around and form electrical currents. As the minigame goes on, they move faster and form more electrical lines. In Cloud Climb and Broom Zoom, Amps are stationary obstacles, and touching them impedes the players' progress rather than defeats the players. | | ====''Mario Party 6''==== |

| Amps appear in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' in the minigame [[Amp My Style]], where they serve as obstacles for the players. In this minigame, a line of them forms an electrical barrier around the player, and these Amps can change positions to emit different shapes. Players who touch Amps and their electricity are eliminated. Amps are featured as one of the many enemy tiles in the minigames [[Match Faker]] and [[Tap Dash]], where players can tap them if the game instructs the players to do so. Amps also can appear as a constellation in the minigame [[Starring Artist]], where players need to redraw their constellation by connecting stars with their stylus. | | {{newsubject-section}} |

| ====''Mario Party 10''==== | | ==Appearance and traits== |
| [[File:Bowser's Wicked Wheel.png|thumb|Amps in Bowser's Wicked Wheel in ''Mario Party 10'']]
| | Amps originally sported white [[Wikipedia:Manga iconography#Head and face|"cross-popping" veins]], joyful red eyes, and rounded metallic lips with a pure red mouth. Since ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', their appearance has been changed a bit. They now have more jagged yellow eyes and a larger, jagged mouth. Their lips are now white, with a pink tongue and black interior being visible inside the mouth. They are also now black rather than grayish and sport no angry veins. |
| In [[Bowser's Wicked Wheel]], a [[minigame]] from ''[[Mario Party 10]]'', two pairs of Amps form electrical bonds at the left and right sides of the running wheel. The characters need to keep running on the wheel as [[Bowser]] rotates without touching these bonds, otherwise they are kicked out. [[Big Amp]]s also appear in the minigame [[Kamek's Rocket Rampage]], where if the player comes in contact with one, they lose two points and are stunned for one second.
| | {{br}} |
| | |
| ====''Mario Party: Star Rush''====
| |
| Amps appear as obstacles in the minigame [[Corkscrew Climb]] in ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]''. Players need to jump over them as they automatically ascend a tower. If a player touches the Amp, the player is knocked out and sent to the back of the line of players. They also appear in the minigame [[Jewel Janitors]], dropping down periodically and briefly stunning any players that touch them. Additionally, they are the main obstacles of a mode named Challenge Tower, where they are hidden and if a player touches them, the player receives a game over. The tower's spaces light up in accordance to the number of Amps adjacent to the space, and Amps are never found directly next to each other. | |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario Party''====
| |
| [[File:HalftheBattle SuperMarioParty.png|thumb|left|Amps in Half the Battle in ''Super Mario Party'']] | |
| Amps appear in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', where they are obstacles in the minigame [[Half the Battle]]. If a player touches one, they are stunned for a brief moment.
| |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario Party Jamboree''====
| |
| Amps appear in several minigames in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'', including [[Scare-ousel]] and [[Shuttle Scuttle]], where they cause players to instantly lose should contact occur. Amps also appear as hazards in the Koopathlon minigames [[Lane Change]] and [[Sky-High Cannons]] and can sometimes appear in the Showdown minigame [[Jr.'s Jauntlet]] as well. In addition, an Amp can be used as an item in Koopathlon. A player who uses the item will cause the player in front of them to get shocked for a few seconds, slowing down their gameplay.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Sports Superstars''===
| |
| Amps appear in ''[[Mario Sports Superstars]]'' as obstacles in boss battles with the Big [[Yellow Magikoopa]] in the Road to Superstar mode. Big Yellow Magikoopa can spawn them and toss them straight towards the cards.
| |
| | |
| ===''Dr. Mario World''===
| |
| Amps appear in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as assistants. Their body is now silver like in their debut appearance in ''Super Mario 64'', while still having their modern eyes from ''Super Mario 64 DS'' onwards. In both stage mode and versus mode, their effect is to transform an object, mainly a [[virus]], into an [[exploder]] when the stage starts, where the chance of activation is higher at higher levels (20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% from levels 1 to 5 respectively).
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit''===
| |
| Amps make their ''Mario Kart'' series debut in ''[[Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit]]'' as gate features in [[Lightning Lagoon]], [[Glazed Gardens]], and [[Windswept Prairie]], zapping any drivers that make contact with them along with having their speed greatly reduced for a short period of time.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Golf: Super Rush''===
| |
| While Amps themselves do not appear in ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]'', there are Trick Golf items based on them known as Amp Balls. They emit a shock that cause multiple zones within its range to be knocked out, granting the player points on the zone that their golf ball landed on, with a Dead-Aim Bonus being rewarded if all zones were knocked out regardless if the player's golf ball landed on those zones or not.
