The former appearance requires the player to get a [[Power Balloon]] to obtain this form, and the latter requires a [[Power Flower (Super Mario 64 DS)|Power Flower]]. | ||

The control scheme for this transformation has been changed somewhat; Mario now gradually floats downwards instead of upwards and has to be kept in the air by tapping the jump button, similar to swimming in 2D [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' games]]. Additionally, when the item's effect is about to wear off, Mario now flashes until finally plummeting. The player can also automatically end the transformation at any time by [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]ing. Mario is the only character who is affected this way when he picks up the Power Flower. In this game, the music that plays when Mario turns into Balloon Mario is a slow-paced arrangement of the [[Wing Mario]] theme. | ||

There is a visual difference in the sprites in this form, as the character's pants are now yellow and emblazoned with a white "P" (for Toadette, the "P" is on her skirt). The functionality of the Balloon form was also altered, allowing the character to be fully in control of which angle and direction they are floating towards, as opposed to the original game's simple vertical and horizontal mobility. While moving quickly with jump or run, blocks can be activated ([[Hidden Block]]s still can only be hit from below) but there is no way to directly attack enemies. While in the Balloon Mario state, Mario counts as constantly airborne even when on the ground. Balloon Mario is no longer timed, but no longer stacks with the current power-up; if hit, Mario reverts to [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]]. | ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''{{'}}s 3.0.0 update adds the Power Balloon along with Balloon Mario and balloon variants of the other characters, exclusively to the ''Super Mario World'' game style.

Unused sprites indicate that originally, the [[Buzzy Shell]] and [[Spiny Shell (red)|Spiny Shell]] could be used by Balloon Mario, with the shell becoming a bubble around him. There are two variants of the former and three of the latter, suggesting the idea went through multiple iterations before being abandoned.<ref> | Unused sprites indicate that originally, the [[Buzzy Shell]] and [[Spiny Shell (red)|Spiny Shell]] could be used by Balloon Mario, with the shell becoming a bubble around him.
