He is a competitor character raced against in the [[Big Penguin Race|third mission]] of [[Cool, Cool Mountain]], where he claims to be the world-champion sledder and also refers to the player character as "buddy." The Big Penguin is located inside the house at the top of the mountain. When [[Mario]], [[Yoshi]], [[Luigi]], or [[Wario]] drops in through the chimney, the Big Penguin speaks to him and challenges him to a race. If the player character accepts, he has to race down the icy [[slide (Super Mario 64)|slide]] in the mountain and beat the penguin to the finish line. The penguin gives the player character a [[Power Star]] if beaten. However, if the player character takes a shortcut by [[jump]]ing onto another section or if he takes the hidden shortcut, the Big Penguin accuses him of cheating and disqualifies him. Somehow, the Big Penguin increases in size and can easily knock the player character off the slide if he is raced against after every Power Star is collected. There is no reward for winning the race again except for further praise from the Big Penguin. | ||
In original releases, if the player loses to the Big Penguin, he makes a [[Koopa Troopa]] sound when talking instead of his own sound,<ref>{{cite|author=ある東大生実況者しゅん|date=April 28, 2018|url=youtu.be/X92Hze3vnmE?t=2009|title=【実況】スーパーマリオ64を完全初見でテンションMAXプレイ|publisher=YouTube|language=ja|accessdate=June 4, 2024}}</ref> and he uses the feminine pronoun 「あたし」 ''atashi'' to refer to himself; both of these are not the case in anglophone releases. | In original releases, if the player loses to the Big Penguin, he makes a [[Koopa Troopa]] sound when talking instead of his own sound,<ref>{{cite|author=ある東大生実況者しゅん|date=April 28, 2018|url=youtu.be/X92Hze3vnmE?t=2009|title=【実況】スーパーマリオ64を完全初見でテンションMAXプレイ|publisher=YouTube|language=ja|accessdate=June 4, 2024}}</ref> and he uses the feminine pronoun 「あたし」 ''atashi'' to refer to himself; both of these are not the case in anglophone releases. |
