Editing Wind

[[File:2-4nsmbw.PNG|thumb|'''Wind''' in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.]]

'''Wind''' appears in a few games as an obstacle. While wind cannot hurt the player, it can blow them into an enemy or into an [[Abyss|abyss]].

In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', Wind<ref>''Super Mario All-Stars'' Nintendo Player's Guide, page 48.</ref> appears for the first time as one of the game's new special features. It is represented by floating leaves. While it is dangerous at times, it is needed to clear some gaps in some levels. Some gaps in the game are so big that crossing them requires the player to use a combination of [[trampoline]]s, wind and bouncing off of one or more enemies. Wind is not present in the ''[[Super Mario Bros. Deluxe]]'' versions of the levels, requiring changes to some levels.

====''Super Mario 64''/''Super Mario 64 DS''====

In some ice levels of ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its [[Super Mario 64 DS|DS remake]], like [[Cool, Cool Mountain]], [[Snowman's Land]], and [[Chief Chilly Challenge]] (DS-only), there are gusts of icy wind that can carry the player over a gap or push them off the edge. The wind also appears in [[Tiny-Huge Island]], [[Rainbow Ride]], and [[Tall, Tall Mountain]]. In addition, a cloud enemy called [[Fwoosh]] appears in ''Super Mario 64 DS'' and guards the entrance to the [[Slide (Super Mario 64)|slide]] on Tall, Tall Mountain and blows wind to attempt to blow the player away. These gusts of wind as well as those of the Snowman's Land snowman can also blow the character's [[cap]] away. One wind gust in Chief Chilly Challenge, exclusive to the DS remake, is so strong that only [[Metal Mario (form)|Metal Wario]] can get past it.

Wind<ref>Black, Fletcher. ''Super Mario Galaxy'' [[Prima Games|PRIMA]] Offical Game Guide, page 166.</ref> appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' in the [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]]. Here, the player must ride [[Floaty Fluff]]s to cross large, windy gaps.

Wind<ref>Bueno, Fernando. ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' [[Prima Games|PRIMA]] Offical Game Guide, page 46.</ref> reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Like in ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'', it is needed to reach certain parts of the level. It only appears in World 2-4 where it can blow [[Coin|coins]] around the level, and can be noticed through the sand that it carries along the way. Enemies in the level will turn against the wind when it comes, and don't move until it goes away. It can also push the player right, though Mario can [[crouch]] to stand still. [[Foo]]s also blow wind, though it acts more like fog in that it obscures the player's view.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', wind is blown by windmills in [[Honeybloom Galaxy]], [[Cloudy Court Galaxy]] and [[Grandmaster Galaxy]]. The clouds created by [[Cloud Mario]] can be carried by the gust, thus reaching far away locations.

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', Wind<ref>Shinoda, Paul, Kent Miller. ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'' [[Nintendo]] Player's Guide, page 92.</ref> is the theme for two courses: [[Gusty Glade]], where it is used to jump over long holes or hinder the player by blowing them into unwanted directions; and [[Windy Well]], where the wind blows upward and lifts the Kongs to high platforms. In this game, the wind is represented by leaves, much like in ''The Lost Levels''.

====''Super Smash Bros.''====

In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', wind appears on the [[Dream Land (Super Smash Bros.)|Dream Land]] stage. Here, a tree named [[Whispy Woods]] blows wind at the player in an attempt to blow them off the stage.

====''Super Smash Bros. Melee''====

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', wind appears on the [[Green Greens]] stage. Here, [[Whispy Woods]] blows wind either left or right, attempting to blow the player of the stage, similar to how he did in Dream Land in ''Super Smash Bros.''

[[File:The Swamp.PNG|thumb|left|Wind in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.]]

[[File:Borboras-SSE.png|thumb|A Borboras, blowing wind in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.]]

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', wind appears on some levels in the [[Subspace Emissary]], such as [[The Wilds]], [[The Swamp]], The [[Battleship Halberd Exterior]] and [[The Glacial Peak]]. It blows like normal wind to the side, but it also blows upward in the swamp. The stage [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] will sometimes blow wind, causing it to take longer to get down. The [[PictoChat]] stage also features drawn wind. Since Green Greens returns from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', so does the wind on the stage. The [[Borboras]], enemies in the Subspace Emissary, also blow wind. The boss [[Ridley]] can produce wind during the boss fight.

===''Yoshi'' franchise===

====''Yoshi Touch & Go''====

Wind reappears in the [[Nintendo DS]] game ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', where it can blow by either blowing into the microphone, or randomly in some areas.

====''Yoshi's Island DS''====

In ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', [[Baby Peach]] can use her parasol to catch wind currents that allow her and Yoshi to reach higher platforms.

Wind exists near the end of [[The Dotwood Tree|Chapter 3-3]] of ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. The player can ride the red wind to the [[Warp Pipe]] at the end to finish the chapter.

In ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', when Mario and [[Huey]] go to [[Mustard Café]] after saving the purple [[Big Paint Star]], they are both blown into a giant hole that the Paint Star repainted by a gust of wind.

===''Mario Kart 7''===

Wind appears in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' on several courses, such as [[Mario Circuit (3DS)|Mario Circuit]] and [[Rock Rock Mountain]]. It is often blown out of [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]s and can push the player around. It can also be used for the elevation of a glider. The [[Screaming Pillar|Screaming Pillars]] in [[DK Jungle (Mario Kart)|DK Jungle]] blow wind that pushes the player back.
