Hoopsters are large, lady bug-like insects first encountered in Super Mario Bros. 2 as infrequent enemies. In Super Mario Bros. 2, Hoopsters can be found absentmindedly crawling up and down vines, hurting the player if they touch it. By jumping right on to the head of a Hoopster though, the player can ride them up the vine the creature is crawling on.
Several Hoopsters appeared as minions of King Koopa in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Mario and the Beanstalk", being sent by King Koopa to attack Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, Toad and their goose ally on a giant beanstalk. These Hoopsters are defeated by Mario, who throws several Garbanzo Beans at them.
In the Nintendo Adventure Book Leaping Lizards, Hoopsters are used in the second International Mushroom Games event, the Beetlebowl, in which the goal is to catch and dunk Hoopsters into an opposing team's bucket. In Pipe Down!, Ludwig von Koopa can use his giant pipe organ to summon some Hoopsters and other enemies to swarm the Mario Bros. if they attempt to attack him directly during one portion of the book. In Dinosaur Dilemma, while traveling through a forest, Yoshi spots some Hoopsters crawling around a tree trunk, and eyes them hungrily.
In the Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3, the king of Desert Hill is turned into a Hoopster with his own Magic Scepter by Morton Koopa Jr.
