'''Foos''' are | [[File:NSMBW Foo Render.png|left|thumb]] | ||
'''Foos''' are white cloud-like enemies that first appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They produce fog that can obscure the player's view. Foos can be defeated with any kind of attack. Their name comes from [[Fwoosh]], a similar enemy from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its [[Super Mario 64 DS|remake]] that blows wind. | |||

*In some early trailer footage of ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', the white part of [[Twister]] had a cloudy appearance resembling a Foo with elements of [[Ty-foo]]'s design.<ref>Nintendo (February 13, 2019).

Retrieved February 13, 2019.</ref> This resemblance was closer in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style, where they lacked the blue cheeks and had pink lips.<ref>Nintendo (May 15, 2019).
