Dry Bones appear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]''. Because they did not originally appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', brand new sprites have been made for them in said game's art style. [[Big Dry Bones]], [[Parabones]], and [[Fish Bone]]s (which can be made when the player places a Dry Bones in the underwater course theme) also appear. While they operate in the same manner in all the game styles, in the ''Super Mario World'' game style, they'll occasionally throw bones at Mario. The ''Super Mario World'' ones have also been redrawn in a smaller size due to a size discrepancy the original graphics had next to ordinary Koopa Troopas. In the ''Super Mario World'' and ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' styles, Yoshis can eat Dry Bones and spit out bones that fly in straight lines ahead of him. It acts similarly to the fireballs from ''Super Mario World'', but can also defeat many fireproof enemies such as [[Buzzy Beetle]]s and [[Chain Chomp]]s. Yoshis can also eat the bone projectile in the ''Super Mario World'' style and spit out that single bone in a similar manner. | Dry Bones appear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS]]''.

Later on, Mario's group encounters more Dry Bones that they crush with the debris of broken [[Brick Block]]s.

Dry Bones appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. The Dry Bones in this game look somewhat different from other versions; they have no shell and walk on four legs, similar to the ones in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', suggesting they are a regional variant akin to [[Troopea]]s. They are found all along [[Hoohoo Mountain]] as the Mario Bros. try to scale the peak. | Dry Bones appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''.

If a Dry Bones' head spins vertically, it attacks Mario; if its head spins diagonally, then Luigi is the victim. To counterattack the Dry Bones while the creature is attacking, the Mario Bros. have to jump onto the spinning bone head as it flies towards either one. When they are defeated, Mario and Luigi occasionally receive a [[Mushroom]]. | ||

Dry Bones are semi-recurring rivals in the series. In the Wii version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', three Dry Bones assist [[Dry Bowser]] as field players in the [[Ice Hockey (Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for Wii)|Ice Hockey]] event, where they are competed against in Festival Mode, on the last day.

After their defeat, Mario and Luigi destroy the [[Fog machine]] and the pair leave before they can be questioned. Dry Bones also appears alongside several other characters for the opening ceremony. In [[The Life of a Minion]], Dry Bones appears alongside Lakitu to help set up a challenge for Bowser with [[Knuckles (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Knuckles]] and [[Vector]], which they do by having Magikoopa transform them to look like [[Espio]] and [[Charmy]]. The pair manage to distract Knuckles and Vector for long enough so that Magikoopa can stun them, though Dry Bones almost gives them away as it only speaks with clicking sounds, and after Bowser defeats Knuckles and Vector, Dry Bones and Lakitu stay behind to calm them down. Dry Bones also appears in [[Mario's Defeat?!]], in which it distracts Bowser while [[Goomba]] is transformed to look like Mario, being ruled out itself due to the way that it speaks, and later when Goomba is being changed back. | ||
