Useful Items are typically distinguished from ordinary items by being unique and one-of-a-kind, though in some cases, a finite number of copies may be obtained, such as in the case of the four [[Fortress Key]]s in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. They are usually necessary to progress in the main storyline of a particular game or otherwise in some sort of sidequest, and as such, they cannot be as easily consumed or discarded as other items, except when doing so is necessary to progress.

Useful Items are sometimes distinguished from other kinds of finite, non-consumable items, such as [[badge]]s and [[clothing]], which may be given their own categories on inventory screens and other similar treatment.
