'''Big Wigglers''' are a large variety of [[Wiggler]] that first appeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''. Unlike normal Wigglers, their size typically causes them to not notice when [[Mario]] jumps on them, though they can sometimes be found angry by default. | |||

While Big Wigglers with the same behavior as regular-sized Wigglers are [[List of New Super Mario Bros. pre-release and unused content|unused]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', a [[giant Wiggler|much larger and longer Wiggler]] appears as a friendly element in [[World 7-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-3]]. | |||

Big Wigglers appear as stage hazards in [[World 5-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 5-2]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They move on preset paths, and can hurt Mario and company if they run into them. However, Big Wigglers can also defeat [[Swoop]]s and most other enemies they run into, and players can bounce harmlessly off them to reach coins and blocks above; pressing the {{button|wii|2}} or {{button|wii|A}} button will do a high jump, similar to a [[Trampoline|Spring]]. | Big Wigglers appear as stage hazards in [[World 5-2 (New Super Mario Bros.

Big Wigglers appear in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', where they are found in [[Wii Maple Treeway|Maple Treeway]]. If a driver bumps into them, their [[kart]] will be pushed back. Players also had to race against a Big Wiggler in a [[List of tournaments in Mario Kart Wii#September 2010 Tournament 2|tournament]] on [[Wii Wario's Gold Mine|Wario's Gold Mine]] that took place in December 2008 and September 2010. Similar to ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''{{'}}s Wiggler boss mission, the racer had to avoid hitting it as they raced around the course. During the first two laps, the Wiggler's speed would nearly match most vehicles, but in the final lap, the Wiggler would become angered and turn red, increasing its speed. The few Item Boxes found along the course contained only [[Triple Mushrooms]] and [[Super Star|Star]]s. | |||

Big Wigglers also appear in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' where they return as obstacles in {{classic-link|Wii|Maple Treeway}}. They jump when they get hit by a [[Super Star]] or a [[Bob-omb]]. | |||
====''Mario Kart Tour''==== | |||
Big Wigglers return in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', once again appearing as stage hazards on Wii Maple Treeway. They now cause racers to spin out when touching them. They also appear as hazards in [[DS Shroom Ridge|DS Shroom Ridge T]], replacing [[car (obstacle)|cars]] and [[truck]]s from the course's other variants. | |||

Big Wigglers reappear on {{classic|Wii|Maple Treeway}} in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''{{'}}s [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]], where they now move around differently and cause any racers driving at high speeds to spin out. One also appears in the forest section of {{classic-link|DS|Mario Circuit}}.<ref>任天堂ホームページ (March 2, 2023). [https://youtu.be/tX38Lfia-qw DS マリオサーキット]. ''YouTube''.
