| | '''Cooligans''' are enemies found in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They are blue penguin-like creatures that sport a pair of sunglasses. |
| '''Cooligans''' are blue, [[penguin]]-like creatures sporting a pair of sunglasses that first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Their name is a portmanteau of the words "cool" and "hooligan". | |
| ==History==
| |
| ===''Super Mario'' series===
| |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
| |
| [[File:NSMBW Cooligan Screenshot.png|200px|thumb|right|Mario encounters two Cooligans.]]
| |
| These enemies first appear in [[World 3-1 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3-1]], and later appear in [[World 9-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 9-5]]. They are seen sliding and can damage [[Mario]] and the others if they run into one of them, although if Mario or anyone else is in the [[Penguin Suit]] and they are sliding too, then they bounce off unhurt. It takes two jumps to defeat one; one jump knocks off a Cooligan's sunglasses first, slowing it down. They also fall down holes rather than hover over them. In this state, if rammed by another Cooligan, it gets defeated.
| |
|
| |
|
| Cooligans can be defeated instantly by a [[Fire Flower]], [[Super Star|Star]], [[Ice Flower]], [[Penguin Suit]], or [[Ground Pound]]. Cooligans continue to slide even if they are frozen, and as such can be used as platforms.

| | These enemies first appear in [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 3-1]], and appear in ice levels. They are seen sliding and can damage [[Mario]] and the others if they run into one of them, although if Mario or anyone else is in the [[Penguin Suit]] and they are sliding too, then they will bounce off unhurt. It takes two jumps to defeat one. One jump will knock off a Cooligan's shades, slowing it down. They will also fall down holes rather than hover over them. In this state, if rammed by another Cooligan, they will be defeated. |
|
| |
|
| The Cooligan's attack pattern is notably similar to another penguin-based enemy, the [[Lemguin]].
| | These creatures can be defeated instantly by a [[Fire Flower]], [[Star]], [[Ice Flower]], [[Penguin Suit]], or [[Ground Pound]]. It should be noted though that Cooligans will continue to slide even if they are frozen, allowing the heroes to use them as platforms to reach [[Star Coin]]s and other objects. They reappear in World 9-5. |
|
| |
|
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
| | Through hacking methods, it is shown that [[Yoshi]] can eat Cooligans. However, he lacks the ability to jump on them. |
| Cooligans return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]'', first found in [[Frosted Glacier]], specifically in [[Cooligan Fields]]. They behave in a similar manner as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. They also appear as the Frosted Glacier [[Enemy Course]]. In this game, they can slide on the surface of water, similar to [[Penguin Mario]]. Cooligans can be eaten by [[Baby Yoshi]]s in this game, and also trapped in [[bubble]]s blown by a [[Bubble Baby Yoshi]].
| |
| | |
| Cooligans return in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'' in their own level, [[Cooligan Shrooms]], which itself replaces Cooligan Fields. | |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party'' series===
| |
| ====''Mario Party 9''====
| |
| [[File:MP9 1v3 Mob Sleds.png|thumb|left|200px|The Cooligan snowmobiles from Mob Sleds]]
| |
| Although Cooligans themselves do not appear in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'', snowmobiles that resemble their likeness make an appearance in the minigame [[Mob Sleds]]. They are piloted by the three players as they attempt to eliminate the solo player.
| |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario Party Jamboree''====
| |
| [[File:Slide n' Chill.webp|thumb|Cooligans in Sled to the Edge]]
| |
| In ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'', Cooligans appear in [[Sled to the Edge]] where they pull the players' sleds along the ice until they let go, after which they slide off-screen.

| ===''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''===
| |
| [[File:CooliganPMSS.png|thumb|left|Cooligans seen in ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'']]
| |
| Cooligans make their ''Paper Mario'' series debut in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', where they appear in the [[Snow Rise]] and [[Ice Flow]] levels of [[World 4 (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|World 4]]. In the former level, they are seen sliding down a snow-covered slope. In the latter level, Cooligans are seen waddling down the ice path before sliding; this is the first instance in which Cooligans are shown walking. Mario cannot face Cooligans in battle, but he will lose 2 HP if he crashes into them.
| |
| | |
| Mario can jump on a sliding Cooligan to make it disappear instantly. In the Snow Rise level, once Mario uses the [[Radiator]] sticker, three Cooligans can be seen stuck, showing that they cannot slide without ice, and hop if Mario uses his hammer near them. In the Ice Flow level, sometimes a [[Curling Stone]], [[Rubber Ducky]], or [[Cat-o-Luck]] [[Sticker#Things|Thing]] slide down the ice trail along with the Cooligans.

| ===''Mario Golf: Super Rush''===
| | ==Names in Other Languages== |
| Cooligans appear in ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]'' as obstacles in [[Blustery Basin]]. In Speed Golf, they can be defeated by dashing into or jumping on them since contact will slow players down.
