'''Mega Mario''' is a form that [[Mario]] and some other characters can take by eating a [[Mega Mushroom]] or simply [[Super Mushroom]]s in many games, first seen in ''[[Mario Party 3]]''. This form allows players to grow into an enormous size, allowing them to destroy every enemy in their path and obliterate almost anything (including [[Pipe]]s, [[Goal Pole]]s, [[Empty Block]]s, [[Boo]]s, and [[Hard Block]]s). | |||

Mega Mario and Luigi are shorter and faster, while Peach and Bowser are taller but slower. In Chapter 3-1, there is a specific Koopa Troopa that uses a Mega Star, causing it to become the [[Mega Koopa]]. According to [[The InterNed]], the music plays while one of the characters is in Mega form (including the [[Mega Koopa]]) is titled "An Unrivaled Battle". | ||

The character can then obliterate almost anything in his path, and if he breaks more than eight objects, he will get a 1-Up for every additional object he destroys. The Super Mushrooms are always found in [[brick]]s and [[Stump]]s scattered throughout the level and are introduced in [[Bob-omb Battlefield]]. The character cannot do any special types of [[jump]]s, such as the [[Triple Jump]]. If Yoshi grabs a Super Mushroom, he gains the ability to punch. | ||

The Mega Mario form returns in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', being obtained from the rare [[Mega Mushroom]]. The more objects Mega Mario breaks, the bar above his head will get filled in. If he crushes a certain amount of objects, Mega Mario can gain up to five [[1-Up Mushroom]]s. Mega Mario also has the ability to squash any of the game's bosses in one hit, including [[Bowser]] in any of his forms. If Mega Mario falls into a [[pit]], the purple toxic water or lava, or if [[Time Limit|time]] runs out, he is instantly defeated. If the Mega Mushroom is activated in tight spaces, Mario's transformation will be canceled and the Mega Mushroom will return to the touch screen; however, if Mega Mario is crushed in any way, he will revert to Super Mario and lose a life immediately after. Additionally, if Mega Mario completes the level, he destroys the [[Goal Pole|flagpole]], which will fill up one-fifth of the meter above him, ensuring at least an extra life is gained. After the Mega Mushroom wears off, Mario reverts to Super Mario, regardless of whatever form he was in before using the Mega Mushroom. | |||
