'''{{iw|wikipedia|Meteors}}''' appear in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] as hazardous objects that fall from the sky.


==History==
Meteors are featured prominently in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', where they sometimes crash into planets. [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) gets hurt if he's it by one.
===''Super Mario Bros.'' film===
In the 1993 [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|''Super Mario Bros.'' film]], it is the meteor {{wp|Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event|that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs}} that separates [[Earth]] into two parallel dimensions; Earth and [[Dinohattan]]. While Dinosaurs become extinct on Earth, they prosper and evolve into intelligent beings in the Dinohattan dimension. Unfortunately, said dimension has poor resources and is compromised of almost entirely a barren, desolate desert. [[President Koopa]] gains control of the dimension through a military coup, with the intent of merging the two worlds. To do this, it is necessary to use a [[Meteorite piece|shard from the meteor]] to combine the worlds. Said piece of meteor plays a pivotal, key role in the movie.


===''Donkey Kong Jungle Beat''===
{{stub}}
Meteors in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'' appear in two sizes and are surrounded by blue fire. Large ones are used as projectiles by the [[Roc]] bosses, while small ones appear in [[Banshee Swamp]], where they follow preset paths through the air, and [[Asteroid Belt]], where they bounce around inside the first asteroid.

Meteors in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' crash into some planets in various [[Galaxy|galaxies]] periodically. If hit by one, [[Mario]] (or [[Luigi]]) will take damage. They first appear being shot from [[cannon]]s by [[airship]]s in the opening, and appear as obstacles shortly after in the [[Gateway Galaxy]].  When Mario traverses the large staircase at the end of [[Bowser's Star Reactor]], [[Bowser]] launches meteors from his mouth to destroy the platforms Mario walks on. In [[Bowser Jr.'s Lava Reactor]], they fall from the sky during the final part of the battle with [[King Kaliente]]. Meteors prominently appear in the [[Melty Molten Galaxy]] in the mission [[Through the Meteor Storm]], where they rain down during the entire mission. The meteors will not spawn if the player is looking directly at their spawn point.

===''Mario Party: Island Tour''===
Meteors in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'' are obstacles that player characters have to avoid in the minigame [[Meteor Melee]].
 
===''Princess Peach: Showtime!''===
Meteors appear in the three regular [[Mighty Peach]] stages in ''[[Princess Peach: Showtime!]]''. [[Princess Peach|Peach]] can charge at slowly incoming meteors to grab onto them, and can then throw them into other meteors, including multiple meteors within a straight path, to destroy them all. A few of the meteors have [[Sour Bunch]] members on top. If such meteors hit the ground, the members will simply land on the ground and walk towards Peach and/or [[Professor]] to damage them.
