'''Mini Mario''' is a form that [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] takes upon eating a [[Mini Mushroom]]. Occasionally, this transformation may also be brought about by using a [[Poison Mushroom]], or other various items. In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', [[Blue Toad (character)|Blue Toad]] and [[Yellow Toad (character)|Yellow Toad]] can use this form too. This transformation is similar to [[Wario]]'s [[Tiny Wario|Tiny Form]].

===''Mario Party'' series===

''[[Mario Party 4]]'' introduces the Mini Mushroom, and is thus the debut of Mini Mario as a power-up form. While in his or her mini form, the player can only roll a 1-5. There is also another item that can transform the player into their mini form: the [[Super Mini Mushroom]], which allows the player to roll two 1-5 dice blocks. Players who shrink themselves can also enter [[Gate (Mario Party 4)|Gates]] and play [[Mini Mini-Game]]s or land on certain spaces.

In ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]'', Mario can buy a Mini Mushroom for ten coins. While mini, Mario can get into entrances like beehives and igloos that are normally too small for him to earn more [[Power Star]]s.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Mario once again becomes Mini Mario by eating a Mini Mushroom. While in this form, the player can [[jump]] higher, run on water, and fit through tiny [[Warp Pipe]]s. However, enemies that Mario can defeat with a stomp at regular size take a Ground Pound to defeat in this form, as Mini Mario merely bounces off of them if he just jumps on them. He also cannot grab and hold anything in this game. Finally, like [[Small Mario]], he loses a [[life]] if hit in this form, and can only get Super Mushrooms from blocks.

In this game, Mini Mario cannot duck, which may refer to ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', where Small Mario could not duck.

The mini form also appears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', retaining the effects from the previous game, except for the inability to pick up objects. In this game, Mario gets a higher-pitched voice while being Mini Mario. He also gains the ability to duck.

The mini form also appears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', along with the [[Mini Mushroom]], having the same effects from the previous games. They only appear in [[World 3-B (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-B]], [[World 4-A (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 4-A]], and certain [[Toad House]]s.

====''New Super Mario Bros. U''====

The mini form reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' with the same effects from the previous games. The form now has the ability to run up  and down walls in a similar way to a [[Triangular Block]].

In the DS version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]'', Mini Mushrooms appear in [[Polastraits]], [[Icepeak]], and [[Blizland]]. As Mini Mario, Mario is able to cross thin ice, as well as narrow spaces. While Mario can become Mini Mario, [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cannot.
