| |
| The '''Mini Mushroom''' is a type of [[mushroom]] found in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Whoever uses it [[Mini Mario (form)|shrinks greatly in size]] and is capable of entering smaller areas. Its opposite counterpart is the [[Mega Mushroom]], which makes the player grow to a [[Mega Mario|massive size]]. | |
| ==History==
| |
| ===''Mario Party 4''===
| |
| [[File:Mini_Mushroom.jpg|frame|left|''[[Mario Party 4]]]] | |
| The Mini Mushrooms debut in ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' as pink-capped mushrooms with white dots and a pink pacifier below its eyes. It reduces the [[Dice Block]] from 1-10 to 1-5 and allows a person under its effects to enter [[Gate (Mario Party 4)|Gates]] and play [[Minigame#Mini Mini-Games|Mini Mini-Game]]s. It costs 5 [[Coin]]s at the [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)|Item Shop]] and it can also be obtained for free at a [[Mushroom Space]]. Additionally, it has an alternate form, which has a similar effect, called [[Super Mini Mushroom]], colored entirely translucent pink. It has the same effect, but allows the player to use two Dice Blocks, both ranging from one to five.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===''Mario Pinball Land''===
| | The '''Mini Mushroom''' is a variety of [[Mushroom]]s found in the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Whoever uses it will shrink greatly in size, becoming as tiny as a mouse. The Mini Mushroom debuted in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', where [[Toad]] and [[Peach]] shot them out at players. If touched, it would shrink the driver making him easy to run over. |
| [[File:MPL MiniMushroom.PNG|frame|right]] | |
| Mini Mushrooms make a reappearance in ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]'', where they can let [[Mario]] go into small passages and get extra [[Power Star]]s. They usually cost ten [[coin]]s and take on their appearance from ''Mario Party 4''. | |
|
| |
|
| ===''Super Mario'' series===
| | It was later seen in ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' as a pink capped mushroom with what appears to be a paciefier that reduced the [[Dice Block]] from 1-10 to 1-5 and allowed a person under its effects to enter [[Gate (MP4)|Gates]] and play [[Mini Mini-game]]s. Additionally, it had an alternate form called [[Super Mini Mushroom]], colored entirely translucent pink, that did the same, but with two Dice Blocks. |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
| |
| [[File:NSMB Mini shroom.png|frame]]
| |
| The Mini Mushroom reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', where it was given its modern appearance. It is now smaller, blue with white spots, and lacks its pacifier. It shrinks [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], and again gives them the ability to enter [[small pipe]]s. Mario and Luigi also gain the abilities to perform [[Jump|Floaty Jumps]], run across water, and stand on [[Donut Block]]s without triggering them, due to their light weight. However, one hit causes the Mario brother to lose a life, and [[Ground Pound|ground pound]]s are required to damage/defeat enemies (but [[Mini Goomba]]s) and bosses. If Mario or Luigi defeats [[Mummipokey]] this way, then they will gain access to [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 4]]; doing the same to [[Petey Piranha]] lets them go to [[World 7 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7]]. It can be found in four levels: [[World 1-4 (New Super Mario Bros.)|1-4]], [[World 2-Castle (New Super Mario Bros.)|2-Castle]], [[World 3-A (New Super Mario Bros.)|3-A]], and [[World 7-A|7-A]]. It can also appear in [[Roulette Block]]s.
| |
| | |
| Mini Mushrooms also appear as power-ups in the two-player Mario vs. Luigi mode, potentially appearing if a brother collects eight [[coin]]s. They retain the same abilities as in the single-player game, but if Mini Mario or Luigi are hit by an opponent's fireball, they lose a life.
| |
| | |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
| |
| [[File:NSMBW Mini Mushroom Sprite.png|frame|left]]
| |
| They appear again in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They are just like the Mini Mushrooms from the original ''New Super Mario Bros.'' However, they are not used as often and are rarely seen in levels, but they can be found commonly in [[Toad House|Red Toad House]]s. [[World 2-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|Worlds 2-2]], [[World 4-3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|4-3]], and [[World 9-8 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|9-8]] are the only levels in the game to include a Mini Mushroom in-level. Like in the last game, Mini Mushrooms are required to find several [[Star Coin]]s and secret areas.
| |
| | |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
| |
| [[File:NewMiniMushroom.png|frame|left]]
| |
| The Mini Mushroom reappears in a few levels in the game ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', where it works just as it did in past games. They are also given in most Red Toad Houses.
| |
| | |
| ====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
| |
| The Mini Mushroom reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''. It behaves like in previous 2D ''Super Mario'' games, with the added ability to run up walls similar to the effect of a [[Triangular Block]].
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games''===
| |
| A Mini Mushroom appears again in the DS version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games]]''. They are found in [[Polastraits]], [[Icepeak]], and [[Blizland]]. They allow [[Mario]] to become mini so he can cross thin ice without weighing too much to break it. It also allows him to cross narrow surfaces. Mario can use the Mini Mushroom, while Sonic cannot. The effect of this mushroom can only wear off if Mario were to grab a normal [[Mushroom]].
| |
| | |
| Mini Mushrooms also make a brief appearance on small platforms on the ice in [[Curling Bowling]], where players must hit a stone across the field to knock down [[Goomba]]s. Here, they will make the stone much smaller if hit by it. This will make the stone easier to sweep around, but will also make it harder to knock out all the Goombas.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Sports Mix''===
| |
| In ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]'', players can use this item to shrink their opponents. While tiny, players cannot hold a basketball, dodgeball, or hockey puck, and are unable to do spikes in volleyball. The tiny players are also unable to perform defensive maneuvers in dodgeball, making them major targets for attacks.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX''===
| |
| [[File:MKAGPDX Mushroom Mini.png|thumb|left]]
| |
| Mini Mushrooms appear as items in ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]''. They can be thrown behind like [[Banana]]s, using a crosshair, where when they hit an opponent they shrink.
| |
| | |
| ===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
| |
| {{quote|HA! [[Bowser|He]] got the blue mushroom!|Donkey Kong|The Super Mario Bros. Movie}}
| |
| In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', a Mini Mushroom, referred to as a '''blue mushroom''',<ref>''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'' subtitles</ref> appears when [[Mario]] punches a [[? Block]] in the [[Great Ring of Kong]] during his battle with [[Donkey Kong]]. Additionally, after Mario and [[Luigi]] defeat [[Bowser]] at the end of the film, [[Princess Peach]] force-feeds Bowser a blue mushroom, transforming him into his Mini form. He is then placed in a glass jar, and is shown being held prisoner in a birdcage in [[Peach's Castle]] during a scene after the stylized credits.
| |
| | |
| ===Similar Mushrooms in other games===
| |
| Although Mini Mushrooms did not exist in ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' for the Game Boy and ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'', [[Poison Mushroom]]s appear in these games and have the same effect as the Mini Mushroom. The Poison Mushroom also has the same effect on characters in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] if they come into contact with one. While small, characters are harder to hit, but easier to launch due to their light weight. Poison Mushrooms also appear in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'', where they can only be used by CPU [[Toad]] and CPU [[Princess Peach|Princess]], and not by the player. If the player runs over a Poison Mushroom, they will shrink temporarily. The player may, however, become normal-sized again by running over another Poison Mushroom while still small. Poison Mushrooms returned to ''Mario Kart'' in both ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP]]'' and its sequel ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]]'' as one of Toad's special character items. They function exactly as they did in ''Super Mario Kart'', except that now they can be used by the player as well.

| | They reappeared in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', where they were light blue, and they shrunk [[Mario]]'s and [[Luigi]]'s size greatly and yet again gave them the ability to enter tiny [[Warp Pipe]]s. They also gained the abilities to perform [[Jump|Floaty Jumps]] and run across water, thanks to their very light weight. Unfortunately, one hit will cause a Mario brother to lose a life. If Mario or Luigi (in Mini form) is able to defeat the [[Mummipokey]], then he will gain access to [[World 4 (NSMB)|World 4]]. If he beats [[Petey Piranha]] in Mini form, he can go to [[World 7 (NSMB)|World 7]]. |

| *The coloration of the playable [[Toad]]'s cap in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' while he is in [[Small Mario|Small form]] resembles that of a Mini Mushroom. | | *A different kind of mushroom called a [[Poison Mushroom]] works similar to the mini-mushroom. |
