{{quote|I'm your host, Snifit.|Host Snifit|Paper Mario: Color Splash}}
'''Host Snifit''', more commonly and informally known as '''Snifit''', is a recurring character in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series. He is a particular [[Snifit]] with a distinctive pink bow tie. In ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', he hosts ''[[Snifit or Whiffit]]'' down in [[Stump Glade]] to an audience of Snifits. He returns to reprise this role in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' for the revamped edition in [[Cobalt Base]]. As ''Snifit or Whiffit'' does not return in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', being replaced by ''[[Shy Guys Finish Last]]'', [[Emcee Shy Guy]] fulfills his role. However, Host Snifit does have a set of [[List of Paper Mario: The Origami King pre-release and unused content|incomplete graphics]] in the game's data.

==History==
===''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''===
[[File:Snifit or Whiffit.png|250px|thumb|The original logo, featuring Snifit's image.]]
The host makes his debut in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' with his signature role. He awaits [[Mario]] and [[Kersti]] down in [[Stump Glade]]. They are both surprised by the prospect of participating in a game show and accept Snifit's offer to compete. He enters in a platform attached to a long pole, which appears to be his method of advancing down floors. He has the classic persona of a game show host, boasting every challenge while questioning Mario's ability, as well as disregarding his interns. For each of the main challenges, he explains the concept and goal. As Mario advances through the challenges, Snifit becomes more impressed, giving him the prize in the end.

Secretly, in storage, Snifit offers Mario a chance to compete in the bonus round for a special prize. This time, Mario is able to accept or decline, though participating and clearing the bonus challenge scores him the prize. Due to the ability he has shown, Snifit insists Mario is part Snifit.

Snifit's likeness is included in the logo for ''Snifit or Whiffit''.

Two of the questions asked during the true/false portion of the quiz involve the host. One of them claims the host's name is Snifit, which is true. The other claims his dinner the previous night was a delicious mushroom steak - this is also true.

===''Paper Mario: Color Splash''===
[[File:PMCS Cobalt Base Snifit or Whiffit intro.png|thumb|250px|The new logo, also featuring Snifit.]]
The host makes a return in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', as does ''Snifit or Whiffit'', with new challenges and gimmicks. Due to the setup being a bit different, the host must explain the rules and goals for each challenge. He appears to recognize Mario from his last appearance as a contestant on the show. He congratulates Mario each time he passes a round before quickly moving on to the next round.

After Mario has cleared four rounds, he becomes qualified for the standard prize, and is asked if he wants to bail out. If Mario clears the bonus challenges, Snifit deems him a champion before signing off.

If Mario fails a round, a [[Big Urchin]] appears over his bubble, threatening to pop it and cause a [[Game Over]] if this continues. The host jokes it will wipe out his save file for good before assuring him it will merely require him to continue from his last save point, as is traditional.

If Mario is running low on [[paint]], the host takes note of this, and offers to refill his counter for 100 [[coin]]s.

Both the logo and backdrop for the game show now feature Snifit.

The [[Letter from Chest]], found on [[Fortune Island]], is written by the directors of ''Snifit or Whiffit'', presumably including Host Snifit, who states the contents of the chest are being used for the grand prize for their show.
