The '''Golden Mushroom''' is an item that appears in several ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' games. It is a rare [[Mushroom]], sometimes depicted with a crown on its head, and it always gives the player a positive effect when used. Golden Mushrooms sometimes vary by color and luster between games, but they are always a strong item.

==Games==
===''Super Mario World''===
[[File:SMWbetamushroom.gif|thumb]]
Originally a flying Golden Mushroom would have appeared in that game but was [[List of Super Mario World beta elements|removed for unknown reasons]]. They are worth [[Extra Lives]], like [[1-Up Mushroom]]s.

===''Mario Kart'' series===
Since ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', the Golden Mushroom gives the player an endless amount of boosts for a limited time. Additionally, in ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'' it is [[Toad (character)|Toad]] and [[Toadette]]'s special item. In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', its appearance is that of the Golden Mushroom from ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''.

===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', it is used as a Mushroom and a [[Syrup]] in one item, restoring both [[Heart Point|HP]] and [[Badge Point|BP]] to max for a single brother. Though there are only five Golden Mushrooms in-game, a glitch that happens with [[Fawful]] or [[Popple]] and [[Birdo]] can net the player with an infinite amount of them. The player must use [[Swing Bros.]] and get the mushroom then get a game over and return to the place. The player keeps the golden mushroom, and can repeatedly do that as long as they wish. 

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', the [[Mushroom Drop]] is also golden and is the game's [[Nut]]. They heal the Mario Bros. and the Baby Mario Bros. 15, 30, and 60 HP for the normal, Super, and Ultra versions, respectively. Although they aren't called golden mushrooms, their appearance is very similar to that of most of the golden mushrooms.

''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'''s [[Star Candy]] later replaces the Golden Mushroom and the game's [[Nut]] replaces Mushroom Drops.

===''Mario Party'' series===
[[Image:MP3_GoldenMushroom.gif|frame|left|''Mario Party 3''.]]
In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', ''[[Mario Party 3|3]]'', ''[[Mario Party 5|5]]'', ''[[Mario Party 6|6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party|7]]'', it allows players to roll three [[Dice Block]]s at one time on their turn, (or in ''Mario Party 5'', on their next turn if they landed on a space containing it), instead of just the standard one Dice Block. In ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', it is replaced by [[Super Mega Mushroom]], which serves a similar purpose. In ''Mario Parties 2-7'', the user gets 20 [[coin]]s for a triple number and a 50 coin bonus for triple 7s. In the 8-player mode in ''Mario Party 7'', if two players roll the same numbers on all six dice blocks, they will get 300 coins. In ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', it allows the player to add five spaces to the Dice Block roll.
 
''Mario Party 3'' features the Golden Mushroom as [[Mario]]'s favorite item.

===''New Super Mario Bros. 2''===
Golden Mushrooms appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' in the [[Coin Rush]] mode and replace [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, and when Mario collects it, he gets 50 coins (or 100 coins if he is [[Gold Mario]]) upon contact. Its appearance is more metallic and lacks the crown from its ''Mario Kart'' appearances.

==''Mario Kart Wii'' Trading Card Description==
''Golden Mushrooms generally show up in the Item Windows of racers near the back of the pack. It's an awesome tool for those unfortunate enough to be in that position as they can use it to catch up to those in front. Unlike other Mushrooms, however, you can tap the Item Button as many times as you'd like to maximize your boost. Be sure to cut corners where possible with this item.''
