|
| ==History==
| | Flowers turn [[Mario]] into [[Superball Mario]]. This gives the player the ability to make Mario shoot Superballs. |
| ===''Super Mario Land''===
| |
| Flowers are items in ''Super Mario Land''. Although black-and-white in game due to graphical limitations of the [[Game Boy]], they are depicted as being black and blue in the Game Boy Player's Guide. Flowers are very similar to [[Fire Flower]]s in appearance and in abilities granted, and can only be found in blocks if Mario is Super Mario or won in the [[bonus game (Super Mario Land)|bonus game]]. Superballs are ''[[Super Mario Land]]''{{'}}s equivalent to [[fireball]]s; only one can be fired at a time, though, and they bounce diagonally at 90° angles. Superballs will collect any coins they make contact with. While one Superball can typically defeat any non-boss enemy, many enemies require multiple Superballs to defeat. Superball Mario looks identical to [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]].
| |
| | |
| ===''Super Mario Maker 2''===
| |
| Superball Flowers reappear under their current name in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They are only available in the ''Super Mario Bros.'' game style as an alternate form of the Fire Flower, and retain their properties from ''Super Mario Land''; Superballs can additionally light [[Bob-omb]]s, collect [[Key]]s and [[Pink Coin (Super Mario Maker)|Pink Coin]]s, and activate [[P Switch]]es and [[POW Block]]s. The character who picks them up takes on monochromatic shades of green, and the background music will also change to [[Birabuto Kingdom]]'s ground theme for that character. Superball Flowers are unlocked for use with [[Course Maker]] in the Story Mode by finding a [[? Block]] that is initially covered by [[Hard Block]]s; after Mario is given the job [[Spiny Shell Smashers]] by Purple Toad and clears it, the blocks will be removed, allowing Mario access.

| | ==Comparison to [[Fire Flower]]s== |
| | Flowers are very similar to [[Fire Flower]]s. Not only do they look very much alike but they also give the player very similar abilities seeing how [[superball]]s are very similar to [[fireball]]s. However, Flowers do not change [[Mario]]'s appearance at all. Also, the player cannot shoot another superball until the first one disappears. |
