Big Mr. I first appeared in ''Super Mario 64'', where he could be found in [[Big Boo's Haunt]]. However, to reach Big Mr. I, Mario has to go up to the attic, which leads to the balcony. Then [[Mario]] must go to the balcony on the second floor, grab the [[Vanish Cap|invisible cap]] and run into the [[Boo]] painting in the attic. He will then be in a room with Big Mr. I, and he must get his attention. Once he does Mario must run around Big Mr. I once in either clockwise or counterclockwise, causing Big Mr. I to get dizzy and spin around uncontrollably until he disappears and turns into a [[Power Star]]. He appeared again in its [[Nintendo DS]] remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' with the same role and abilities. Big Mr. I is among the few bosses that neither speaks to Mario nor has the boss theme play during their fight.

In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', Big Mr. I appeared in [[Horror Land]], although his name is changed to '''Mr. I Laser'''. If a player pays him ten [[coin]]s, he'll roll himself to the player and force them to run away by running across the game board in a certain direction until stopping at a Mr. I Space; if a player is on Mr. I Laser's route, the player is also forced to run away from the rolling Mr. I Laser.

Players should avoid bumping into Big Mr. I or one of the many [[Podoboo]]s that pop up, for they will stun the player for a few valuable seconds.

Although not much is known about his personality, he shares the same behavioral traits as the rest of his species. He seems to be somewhat vengeful as shown in the "Eyebrawl" minigame from ''Mario Party 8'', where he will summon numerous Mr. Is to scare the player for having defeated many Mr. Is. However he has been known to be helpful for a price as shown in ''Mario Party 2'', where he will help the player cross the board for 10 coins.


===Abilities===
Big Mr. I has the same powers as the rest of his species, such as shooting lasers, invisibility and levitation. In ''Mario Party 2'' he is capable of rolling into players, something no other Mr. I has displayed. In ''Mario Party 8'' it is shown that he can summon numerous Mr. Is to scare the losing player.
