'''Mini Mario''' is a form that [[Mario]] 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]]'', the two [[Toad]]s ([[Blue Toad (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|Blue Toad]] and [[Yellow Toad (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|Yellow Toad]]) are capable of becoming mini versions of themselves as well. | |||

Mario | ==Appearances== | ||
===''Mario Kart'' series=== | |||
In the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series, there is an item called the [[Thunderbolt]], which shrinks every player except the user to a miniature size. Other sources of electricity may also do this to the player. In addition, an item from ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' called the [[Thunder Cloud]] shrinks whomever it is floating over after a while. ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'' also features the Poison Mushroom, which can only be used by Peach and Toad when controlled by computers; they shrink any player that runs into them. In ''Super Mario Kart'', ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', and ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', players who are shrunk can be temporarily flattened by normal size players. In the other games in the series, the effect is changed to simply being easier to push around. | |||
== | ===''Donkey Kong (Game Boy)''=== | ||
===''Mario Party 4''=== | In ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'', when Mario touches a [[Poison Mushroom]], he shrinks in size. However, this hinders Mario instead of helping him, and thus cannot be considered a powered-up form. | ||
''[[Mario Party 4]]'' | |||
===''Mario Party'' series=== | |||
Several [[minigame]]s throughout the ''Mario Party'' series feature Mario and company shrunk to a small size. | |||
====''Mario Party 4''==== | |||
''[[Mario Party 4]]'' debuts the Mini Mushroom, and is thus the introduction 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 miniaturize themselves can also go through [[Gate (Mario Party 4)|Gates]] and play [[Mini Mini-Game]]s. | |||
====''Mario Party 8''==== | |||
In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', there is a candy called the [[Weeglee Candy]], which transforms the player into three miniature versions of themselves. While in this form, the player steals a piece of candy from any opponent he or she passes. | |||
====''Mario Party DS''==== | |||
In ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', Bowser tricks Mario and his friends into coming over to his house for an apology feast, which ends with him trapping them in a cage and shrinking them with his [[Minimizer]]. | |||

While mini, Mario can get into entrances like beehives and igloos that are normally too small for him to earn more [[Power Star]]s. | ||
===[[Mario & Luigi (series)|''Mario & Luigi'' series]]=== | |||
[[Image:MLSSMiniMario.png|frame|left|Mini-Mario in [[Woohoo Hooniversity]].]] | |||
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', '''Mini-Mario''' is a Bros. Action taught to Luigi in [[Chateau de Chucklehuck]]. It involves Luigi standing behind Mario and hitting him with a [[hammer]]. Mario then shrinks to about half of his normal size, allowing him to fit through gaps normally inaccessible. In addition, when Mario is in [[Beanbean Castle Town]], a small exclamation mark will appear over his head whenever he draws near an area of ground where a [[Beanstone]] is located. If the game is being played on the [[Game Boy Player]], the controller will react. A larger exclamation mark appears if Mario is directly above a Beanstone. In order for him to be restored to his normal size, Mario must either be hit by Luigi's hammer or enter battle. If Luigi attempts to [[High Jump]] onto Mini-Mario, and if Mario jumps when Luigi is directly above him, he earns a [[coin]] every time Luigi is hit. However, every time Luigi is hit, he loses 1 [[Heart Point|HP]]; if his HP is at 1 when Mario jumps on him, nothing happens. | |||
In ''[[Mario & Luigi Partners in Time]]'', [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] are small enough to go through holes the Mario brothers cannot fit in, which are about the same size as the ones Mini-Mario can go through. Also, the [[Bros. Ball]] move makes [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] small enough to head through passages the [[babies]] can't fit into normally. | |||
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', once Mario and Luigi obtain the hammers, Luigi can hammer Mario to shrink him down to a small size just like in ''Superstar Saga''. This ability is used for the same reasons as in the previous game. | |||

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Mario once again becomes Mini Mario by eating a Mini Mushroom. While in this form, the player can [[Jump|to jump higher]], walk on water, jump on enemies without [[stomp]]ing them, and also fit through tiny [[Warp Pipe]]s. Additionally, enemies that Mario can defeat with a stomp at regular height take a Ground Pound to defeat while he is Mini Mario. If damage is taken when in this form, rather than reverting back to regular-sized Mario, Mario loses a [[life]]. | |||

[[File:Mini Mario NSMBU.png|thumb|200px|'''Mini Mario''' in ''New Super Mario Bros. U''. Note Mini Mario's new ability to run up walls.]] | |||
The mini form will also appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. It will have the same effects from the previous games. However, the form now has the ability to run up walls in the same way a [[Triangular Block]] worked in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. He can also run down walls as well. | |||
=== | ===''Super Paper Mario''=== | ||
In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', the [[Pixl]] [[Dottie]] has the ability to shrink the four heroes to a tiny size, allowing them to fit into small doors and through small holes in walls, as well as granting the ability to walk on water like in previous games. Additionally, enemies cannot see the player while they are shrunk, but this does not stop enemies from damaging them. Additionally, while [[Princess Peach]] is asleep in Chapter 7-3, feeding her a [[Blue Apple]] results in her shrinking to a small size. | |||
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''=== | |||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the [[Poison Mushroom]] has the ability to shrink whomever touches it, making them weaker and easier to KO. The Thunderbolt item also appears, having the same effect as it does in the ''Mario Kart'' series. | |||

====''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!''==== | |||
In the animated episode "[[Princess, I Shrunk the Mario Brothers]]," Toad accidentally uses a shrinking potion intended for use on King Koopa on Mario and Luigi. | |||
Additionally, in the live-action segment "[[All Steamed Up]]," Mario enters the [[Steam-O-Matic]] to make sure that it has been fully repaired. However, [[Sgt. Slaughter]] then shows up and turns the machine on at full power. Mario is eventually able to escape, but is shrunk due to prolonged exposure to the steam. | |||
