''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' is the first [[Mario (franchise)|''Mario'' game]] to feature Magic Mushrooms. The first one appears in the second [[? Block]] of [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]]. Though eyeless, the mushroom's colors resemble those of a [[Mega Mushroom]] (as of ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''), though they were changed to the standard white-spotted red cap with eyes in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''.

Touching one will turn Mario into Super Mario, making his body grow. While Super, he gains the ability to break [[Brick Block]]s and allows him to take one more hit from an enemy (shrinking down to [[Small Mario]] before losing a life). Also, when Super Mario gets hit, his image will flicker and he will be temporarily invulnerable during this time. If Mario is Super, a [[Fire Flower]] will appear in place of a Magic Mushroom's power-up location. However, if Mario takes a hit before getting the Fire Flower, it will act as a Magic Mushroom instead, just making him big.

Also, Super Mushrooms receive eyes in this game for the first time, making them look even more like Mega Mushrooms. [[Poison Mushroom]]s look almost identical to Super Mushrooms, except that they are the same colors as Goombas (brown in ground levels, blue in caves, and gray/white in castles); they were given unique designs in ''Super Mario All-Stars'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Super Mushrooms again return, but still grant the player the same abilities. The only changes that were made was the sprite's appearance: in the original ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Super Mushrooms are colored white with red spots, but in [[Super Mario All-Stars|subsequent]] [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|remakes]], those colors are changed to the as-of-''Super Mario World'' standard: red cap with white spots. However, the map's item inventory retains the error.
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Super Mushrooms again return, but still grant the player the same abilities. They use their now standard shape, appearing more circular than in previous appearances. A difference in their behavior is that they can now also move to the left if the player stands to the right of the block, forcing them to chase after the Mushroom. In the original ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Super Mushrooms are colored white with red spots, but in [[Super Mario All-Stars|subsequent]] [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|remakes]], those colors are changed to the as-of-''Super Mario World'' standard: red cap with white spots.

Super Mushrooms make a return in ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. They once again turn Mario into [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]], allowing him to take one hit without dying and break [[Brick Block]]s. Unlike in most other games, however, they fall straight down if they fall off an edge, rather than at an angle.

Unlike in most other games, however, they fall straight down if they fall off an edge, rather than at an angle.

Super Mushrooms reappear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' and no changes had been made to them. Super Mushrooms tend to "leap" out of the bushes sometimes for the player to receive. However, in this game, grabbing one while in [[Super Mario (form)|Super]], [[Fire Mario|Fire]], or [[Cape Mario|Cape]] form will put it in the [[Item Storage]], regardless of any reserve items. As of this game, they also aren't as necessary, as grabbing a higher-tiered power-up, like a [[Fire Flower]] or [[Cape Feather]], immediately turns Small Mario into the respective form. This game also marked the debut of the Super Mushroom's current color scheme (a red cap with white spots). Also, during the battle against [[Bowser]], [[Princess Peach|Peach]] aids Mario/Luigi by tossing him a Super Mushroom between phases.

In [[4 Ludwig's Castle|#4 Ludwig's Castle]], there is a Super Mushroom next to a door that leads to the next room.

In ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', the Super Mushroom, looking similar to its ''Super Mario World'' appearance,  once again changes Mario into [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]] with the usual results. However, unlike in ''Super Mario Land'', it also allows him to perform a [[Spin Jump]] (from ''Super Mario World'') to hit or break blocks beneath him by pressing {{button|Paddown}} and jumping or while in midair. Unlike other games, Mario reverts back to Super Mario if he obtains a Super Mushroom while taking a higher-tier form.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Super Mushrooms return, working as they did in the classic 2D ''Mario'' games. Unlike in ''Super Mario World'', however, they do not replace higher-tiered power-ups in the Item Storage (like the Fire Flower), instead simply giving 1000 points to the player.

''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'' is the first original 3D ''Mario'' game to include Super Mushrooms. They turn Mario from Small Mario to Super Mario, just as in the 2D ''Mario'' games. If Mario collects a Super Mushroom when the player already has an item stored, the player earns ten coins instead. Unlike in previous games, they are not as necessary, since Mario starts out each life as Super Mario. [[Morty Mole]]s also drop a Super Mushroom sometimes. [[Poison Mushroom]]s also return in the Special Worlds, but they have angry eyes and a pink-spotted purple cap.

Super Mushrooms return in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' and have the same purpose in other games, to turn Small Mario/Luigi into Super Mario/Luigi. Additionally, if Mario and Luigi are already in their Super forms when grabbing one, they get 5 coins instead (as there is no [[Item Storage]] to store the extra mushroom unlike in ''Super Mario World'', the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series, ''Super Mario 3D Land'', and ''Super Mario 3D World'').
Super Mushrooms return in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' and have the same purpose in other games, to turn Small Mario/Luigi into Super Mario/Luigi. Super Mushrooms can sometimes be found outside of blocks. In certain cases, a Super Mushroom found outside of a block may not move at all; some courses even have a floating Super Mushroom. Super Mushrooms that do move have behavior unique to this game: If the player is ahead of a Super Mushroom and the Super Mushroom is moving toward them, the Super Mushroom speeds up to collide with the player. The player can outrun a Super Mushroom during a Coin Rush or while they are [[Invincible Mario|invincible]]. Super Mushrooms do not move past the player once they are in this "chasing" state outside of certain circumstances involving cutscenes. Once a Super Mushroom reaches the player's vertical position, it switches to moving at the same speed as the player.


In versions of ''Super Mario Run'' prior to the Fall 2017 update, Peach, Toad, Toadette, and Yoshi did not have small forms to shrink into when getting hit, unlike in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker'', and therefore, Super Mushrooms had no effect on them, as they were in their regular usual forms (they instead were defeated in one hit and remained in their usual regular form, as it was their only form in the game and also their weakest form in this sense, despite the advantage of being able to break Brick Blocks, unlike Mario and Luigi, who require their Super forms to do so); like Mario and Luigi (when in their Super forms), they got 5 coins instead upon grabbing one.  
If Mario and Luigi are already in their Super forms when they grab a Super Mushroom, they get five coins instead. ''Super Mario Run'' does not have item storage, unlike ''Super Mario World'', the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series, ''Super Mario 3D Land'', and ''Super Mario 3D World''.  


In versions since the Fall 2017 update, Peach, Toad, Toadette, and Yoshi start a level in their regular usual forms, but now have small forms to shrink into upon being hit just like in ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', ''Super Mario 3D World'', and ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''. Unlike those games, they return in their small forms after being defeated or falling in pits or lava (as in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]''). Thus, Super Mushrooms have a purpose to turn them back into their usual regular big forms, unlike in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker'', where they respawn in their Super forms after being defeated in their Small forms and do not need them as much. As with Mario and Luigi (when already in their Super forms), the characters get five coins upon grabbing one in their regular usual forms.
In versions of ''Super Mario Run'' prior to the Fall 2017 update, Peach, Toad, Toadette, and Yoshi did not have small forms to shrink into when getting hit. Therefore, Super Mushrooms had no effect on them. Their default state acted identically to Super Mario, as they were as tall as Super Mario and could break Brick Blocks. They received five coins for Super Mushrooms instead, but they were defeated by one hit.
 
In versions since the Fall 2017 update, Peach, Toad, Toadette, and Yoshi gained small forms to shrink into upon being hit. They continue to start levels in the large form. If they are defeated by pits, poison or lava, they enter a [[bubble]] in small form. Thus, Super Mushrooms turn them back into their regular big forms. If they are already at their normal size, these characters get five coins instead.
 
In Remix 10, if the player collects 100 coins while small, the coin counter resets and the player is given a Super Mushroom in a bubble.
 
There is a [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|Super Mushroom Statue]] item in the Kingdom Builder mode, The [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|8-bit Super Mushroom Trim]] and [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|8-bit Super Mushroom Statue]] are other Kingdom Builder items that use the Super Mushroom's appearance from ''Super Mario Bros.''

:''For a list of probabilities of triple Dice Block rolls with Golden Mushrooms, see [[Triple Dice#Probabilities|Triple Dice § Probabilities]].''
In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 3|3]]'', the Super Mushroom is yellow and is localized as the '''Golden Mushroom'''. It is an item that allows players to roll three [[Dice Block]]s on their turn. It is stated to be [[Mario]]'s favorite item in the latter game. Rolling three of the same number earns the player 20 [[Coin]]s, and rolling three sevens earns the player a 50 coin bonus; additionally, the "new record" music plays. In the former game, Golden Mushrooms also appear alongside normal Mushrooms in [[Rakin' 'em In]] and [[Grab Bag]].
Super Mushrooms appear as usable items in many games in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. In these games, the Super Mushroom is depicted as a shiny, golden variant of the regular Mushroom, and its effect is a stronger variant of the regular Mushroom's effect. Similar items have appeared in games in which the Super Mushroom is not present, such as the [[Super Mega Mushroom]] in ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', the [[Thrice Candy]] in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', and the [[Triple Dice|Triple Dice Set]] in ''[[Mario Party DS]]''. The [[Golden Dash Mushroom]] also has a similar role as a stronger, golden variant of the [[Dash Mushroom]] in ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Party]]''.


The Golden Mushroom is replaced by the [[Super Mega Mushroom]] in ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', it returns as the [[Super 'Shroom Orb|Super Mushroom Capsule]], now having a normal tan stem but keeping the yellow cap. This item returns under the name "Super 'Shroom Orb" in ''[[Mario Party 6|6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7|7]]''. It is in turn replaced by the [[Thrice Candy]] in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''.
====''Mario Party 2''====
[[File:Golden Mushroom MP2-3.png|frame|right]]
The Super Mushroom first appears in the ''Mario Party'' series in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', although it is known as the '''Golden Mushroom''' in the English localization. When used, the Golden Mushroom allows a player to roll three Dice Blocks instead of just one, traveling a number of spaces equal to the sum of the numbers rolled. If the player rolls the same number on all three Dice Blocks, they are granted 20 coins, or 50 coins for triple 7s. It can be bought from an [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)|Item Shop]] for 20 coins.
 
In addition to this item, a different golden-colored mushroom called the [[Golden Mushroom (crownless)|Gold Mushroom]] appears in the [[minigame]]s [[Rakin' 'em In]] and [[Grab Bag]].
 
====''Mario Party 3''====
[[File:Mario Party 3 Triple Sevens.png|thumb|left|[[Princess Peach|Peach]] receiving 50 coins for rolling triple 7s under the effects of a Golden Mushroom in ''[[Mario Party 3]]''.]]
The Golden Mushroom reappears in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'' with the same name, appearance, and effects as in ''Mario Party 2''. It can be bought from [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)#Mario Party 3|Toad's Trading Post]] for 10 coins. It also has the ability to negate curses granted by Bowser, [[Cursed Mushroom|Poison Mushroom]]s, and [[Reverse Mushroom]]s. It is Mario's favorite item in this game.
 
====''Mario Party 5''====
[[File:Super Mushroom Capsule.jpg|thumb|right|The Super Mushroom Capsule as it appears in ''Mario Party 5'']]
The Super Mushroom returns under its usual name in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', now in [[Orb|capsule]] form as the '''Super Mushroom Capsule'''. The Super Mushroom Capsule can be obtained from a [[capsule machine]] like other capsules and can either be thrown onto a space for free or used on the player for 10 coins. When used or activated, it grants the player a Super Mushroom, which retains its shiny, golden appearance and effects from ''Mario Party 2'', though rolling triples (other than triple 7s) now grants the player 30 coins.
 
====''Mario Party 6''====
[[File:Orb SuperShroom - MP6.png|thumb|left|The Super 'Shroom Orb as it appears in ''Mario Party 6'']]
The Super Mushroom Capsule reappears in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' under the name '''Super 'Shroom Orb'''. It can once again be used by players to gain the same benefits as in ''Mario Party 5'', though it can no longer be thrown onto spaces due to the revised Orb system. It can be obtained from [[Orb Space]]s or bought at an [[Orb hut]], usually for 15 coins.
 
====''Mario Party 7''====
The Super 'Shroom Orb reappears in ''[[Mario Party 7]]'' with the same name, appearance and effects as in ''Mario Party 6''. When used in a Team Battle, both team members roll three Dice Blocks numbered 1-5, and if the same number is rolled on all six dice, the team is granted 300 coins.

[[File:Super Mushroom SSB4 Wii U.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|The Super Mushroom in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'']]
The Super Mushroom appears as an item in all [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'']] games, starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It allows any fighter to grow to a bigger size, thus making them heavier and harder to launch, while also increasing their run and fall speed. It also increases the amount of damage that the fighter can deal to opponents, in addition to improving the fighter's reach in their attacks. Aesthetically, the user's voice is also lower-pitched. In ''Melee'', they resemble the appearance of  generic Mushrooms in ''[[Mario Party 2]]''; their modern design (adapted from the Mushrooms in ''Mario Kart DS'') is used for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and all subsequent appearances. The Super Mushroom is also the symbol of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]].
The Super Mushroom appears as an item in all games of the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It allows any fighter to grow to a bigger size, thus making them heavier and harder to launch, while also increasing their run and fall speed. [[Giga Bowser]] and [[smashwiki:Giga Mac|Giga Mac]] are unaffected by Super Mushrooms, since they are already very large. A Super Mushroom also increases the amount of damage that the fighter can deal to opponents, in addition to improving the fighter's reach in their attacks. Starting with ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', all direct attacks can deal 1.56x their normal damage while the fighter is giant-sized, and they only move right upon emerging. The damage multiplier excludes projectile attacks, however. Aesthetically, the user's voice is also lower-pitched. In ''Melee'', they resemble the appearance of  generic Mushrooms in ''[[Mario Party 2]]''; their modern design (adapted from the Mushrooms in ''Mario Kart DS'') is used for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and all subsequent appearances. A Super Mushroom is also the symbol of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]].


On an additional note, [[Giga Bowser]] and [[Giga Mac]] are unaffected by Super Mushrooms.
Throughout the series, there have also been collectible items of a Super Mushroom. In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', a Super Mushroom can be randomly obtained from the Lottery or in one of the single-player modes. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', there is both a trophy and a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] of a Super Mushroom, both of which are unlocked at random. The sticker, simply named "Mushroom," can be used in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] by either Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, or Yoshi to increase the power of their arm- and leg-based attacks by 5 points. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', there is another trophy of a Super Mushroom, again unlocked at random. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', there is an Advanced-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] of a Super Mushroom, which increases the fighter's attack, defense, and speed after eating [[food]], and it can be obtained from [[smashwiki:Timmy & Tommy|Timmy & Tommy]]'s shop. A Super Mushroom spirit's core can be combined with [[Metal Mario]]'s and a [[Fire Flower]]'s cores to summon the [[Gold Mario]] spirit.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Melee''====
In addition to being an item, the Super Mushroom appears as a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]]. It can be obtained in the Lottery or when it randomly appears in one of the game's single-player modes.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''====
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Super Mushrooms only go right upon appearing like they do in ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' games. All direct attacks can deal 1.56x their normal damage while the fighter is giant-sized. The damage multiplier excludes projectile attacks, however.
 
A Super Mushroom also appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]], which can be used in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] by Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser or Yoshi to increase the power of their arm- and leg-based attacks by 5 points. A Super Mushroom is also featured as trophy that can be unlocked at random when it appears in Vs. matches, Adventure Mode, or other modes of the game.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''====
The Super Mushroom item returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' with the same properties as in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. It also appears as a trophy, which can be unlocked if the player obtains it in one of the game's modes.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
The Super Mushroom returns as an item in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where it retains the qualities from its ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' appearance. In addition, a Super Mushroom appears as an Advanced-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', which increases the fighter's attack, defense, and speed after eating [[food]]. The spirit can be obtained from Timmy & Tommy's shop. Its core can be combined with [[Metal Mario (character)|Metal Mario]]'s and a [[Fire Flower]]'s cores to summon the [[Gold Mario]] spirit.

After this appearance, Super Mushrooms went on to appear in a few of [[9-Volt]]'s microgames. In ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'' and later ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'', Super Mushrooms appear in the [[Super Mario Bros. (WarioWare: Twisted!)|Super Mario Bros.]] microgame, where Mario can obtain a Super Mushroom from a ? Block, just like in its namesake game. In Level 2 of the [[Super Mario Land (WarioWare: Get It Together!)|Super Mario Land]] microgame in ''[[WarioWare: Get It Together!]]'', the player's character is required to hit a ? Block and collect the Super Mushroom inside. Upon collecting it, the character grows in size.

In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', [[Princess Peach]] feeds Mario a Super Mushroom (known in the film as a '''red mushroom''')<ref>''The Super Mario Bros. Movie'' subtitles</ref> before testing him on the [[Training Course]]. Every time Mario takes damage on the Training Course, he eats another red mushroom before running it again. [[Mario]] is also seen eating a red mushroom to transform into [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]] before fighting [[Bowser's Minions]] with [[Donkey Kong]]. Mario initially has a disdain towards eating the mushrooms, and at one point during the training montage, ends up throwing up for eating too many of them.

A Super Mushroom (originally known as a Magic Mushroom,[1][2] and also known as a Power Booster Mushroom,[3] a Power-Up Mushroom,[4][5][6] or simply a Mushroom) is a red mushroom with white spots that serves a particular function depending on the game in which it is found. Its first and most common effect is causing Small Mario to turn into his Super form, allowing him to smash through bricks and take an extra hit from enemies. In other games, it heals Mario and others who use it. The Poison Mushroom can be considered its opposite, a mushroom item that hurts the player. Both this and the standard mushroom are designed after the poisonous Amanita muscaria, with the shape resembling a button mushroom.

The idea for Super Mushrooms was originally believed to have been inspired by the cake that Alice eats in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland that makes her grow after having been shrunk by a potion. However, Shigeru Miyamoto later corrected himself, saying that this was a misunderstanding; the mushrooms were actually inspired by the concept of mushrooms being associated with magical worlds in general, like the wonderland of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and the Mushroom Kingdom.[7] Regardless, the item has become one of the most iconic items in video game history, and it is almost as known as Mario himself.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario Bros.[edit]

SMB Supermushroom.png Super Mushroom from Super Mario All-Stars.

Super Mario Bros. is the first Super Mario game to feature Magic Mushrooms. The first one appears in the second ? Block of World 1-1. Though eyeless, the mushroom's colors resemble those of a Mega Mushroom (as of New Super Mario Bros.), though they were changed to the standard white-spotted red cap with eyes in Super Mario All-Stars.

Touching one will turn Mario into Super Mario, making his body grow. While Super, he gains the ability to break Brick Blocks and allows him to take one more hit from an enemy (shrinking down to Small Mario before losing a life). Also, when Super Mario gets hit, his image will flicker and he will be temporarily invulnerable during this time. If Mario is Super, a Fire Flower will appear in place of a Magic Mushroom's power-up location. However, if Mario takes a hit before getting the Fire Flower, it will act as a Magic Mushroom instead, just making him big.

Like any enemy, if a Magic Mushroom comes in contact with a wall, it will turn around. Just like 1-Up Mushrooms, players can make Magic Mushrooms jump by hitting any viable block (Brick, ? or Coin Blocks); doing so before a Magic Mushroom passes over the block's center can even change its direction entirely. A Magic Mushroom moves at the same speed as Mario's walking speed.

Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels[edit]

Super Mushrooms return in Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, working exactly as they do in Super Mario Bros. Also, Super Mushrooms receive eyes in this game for the first time, making them look even more like Mega Mushrooms. Poison Mushrooms look almost identical to Super Mushrooms, except that they are the same colors as Goombas (brown in ground levels, blue in caves, and gray/white in castles); they were given unique designs in Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Bros. Deluxe.

Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

Mushroomsmb3.png A Super Mushroom, from the SNES remake of Super Mario Bros. 3.

In Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mushrooms again return, but still grant the player the same abilities. They use their now standard shape, appearing more circular than in previous appearances. A difference in their behavior is that they can now also move to the left if the player stands to the right of the block, forcing them to chase after the Mushroom. In the original Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mushrooms are colored white with red spots, but in subsequent remakes, those colors are changed to the as-of-Super Mario World standard: red cap with white spots. However, the map's item inventory retains the error. Poison Mushrooms return in the GBA remake, with a white-skulled blue cap.

Super Mario Land[edit]

Super Mushroom

Super Mushrooms make a return in Super Mario Land. This game gives it the unique distinction of lacking spots. They once again turn Mario into Super Mario, allowing him to take one hit without dying and break Brick Blocks. Unlike in most other games, however, they fall straight down if they fall off an edge, rather than at an angle. They also are not able to move to the left anymore, like they were in Super Mario Bros. 3.

Super Mario World[edit]

MushroomSMW.png

Super Mushrooms reappear in Super Mario World, where they function the same as before. Super Mushrooms tend to "leap" out of the bushes sometimes for the player to receive. However, in this game, grabbing one while in Super, Fire, or Cape form will put it in the Item Stock, regardless of any reserve items. As of this game, they also aren't as necessary, as grabbing a higher-tiered power-up, like a Fire Flower or Cape Feather, immediately turns Small Mario into the respective form. This game also marked the debut of the Super Mushroom's current design, reverting back to the Mushrooms' coloration from Super Mario Bros. 2, though with its Super Mario Bros. 3 proportions intact. In #4 Ludwig's Castle, there is a Super Mushroom next to a door that leads to the next room. During the battle against Bowser, Peach aids Mario/Luigi by tossing him a Super Mushroom between each phase.

Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins[edit]

Mushroom

In Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins, the Super Mushroom, looking identical to its Super Mario World appearance, once again changes Mario into Super Mario with the usual results. However, unlike in Super Mario Land, it also allows him to perform a Spin Jump (from Super Mario World) to hit or break blocks beneath him by pressing +Control Pad down and jumping or while in midair. Unlike other games, Mario reverts back to Super Mario if he obtains a Super Mushroom while taking a higher-tier form.

Super Mario 64 DS[edit]

Sprite of a Mushroom from Super Mario 64 DS

Mushrooms appear exclusively in Super Mario 64 DS, but this time, they make the characters grow extremely large for a limited time, similar to the effect of a Mega Mushroom. This allows the characters to destroy objects or enemies simply by touching them. They earn an extra life for each object or enemy that they destroy after the first seven. Yoshi, when receiving this power-up, throws punches like the others instead of using his tongue and can break Bricks.

New Super Mario Bros.[edit]

Super Mushroom from New Super Mario Bros..

In New Super Mario Bros., Super Mushrooms return, working as they did in the classic 2D Super Mario games. Unlike in Super Mario World, however, they do not replace higher-tiered power-ups as a Stored Item (like the Fire Flower), instead simply giving 1000 points to the player. They use a design similar to that of the Dash Mushroom from Mario Kart DS.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]

NSMBW Mushroom Render.png NSMBW Super Mushroom Sprite.png

In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Super Mushrooms are not changed, except that the number of Mushrooms that appear out of blocks depends on the number of players there are, as well as their current forms, as one will appear for every Small or Mini player currently active. However, with two to four players, if every person does not have a power-up (excluding Mini form), one higher class power-up (such as a Fire Flower) will appear. Super Mushrooms can also appear in Kamek's boss fight, as he may use his magic to turn platforms into Super Mushrooms.

Super Mario 3D Land[edit]

SuperMushroom3DLand.png

Super Mario 3D Land is the first original 3D Super Mario game to include Super Mushrooms. They turn Mario from Small Mario to Super Mario, just as in the 2D Super Mario games. If Mario collects a Super Mushroom when the player already has a power-up in the item storage, the player earns ten coins instead. Unlike in previous games, they are not as necessary, since Mario starts out each life as Super Mario. Morty Moles also drop a Super Mushroom sometimes. Poison Mushrooms also return in the Special Worlds, but they have angry eyes and a pink-spotted purple cap.

New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

Artwork of a Super Mushroom for New Super Mario Bros. 2

Super Mushrooms appear in New Super Mario Bros. 2, acting the same as they did in previous side-scrolling games.

New Super Mario Bros. U[edit]

The Super Mushrooms appear in New Super Mario Bros. U, acting the same as in other games.

Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]

Artwork of a Super Mushroom from Super Mario 3D World.

Super Mushrooms return in Super Mario 3D World and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, acting the same as in other games. However, like in Super Mario 3D Land, they are less important to collect, because Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Toad, Captain Toad, and Rosalina start each life in their Super forms.

Goomba Towers sometimes carry Super Mushrooms; the player can touch the GamePad touchscreen to pop the bubble to get them from the Goomba Towers.

Super Mushrooms also appear in Bowser's Fury, where they sometimes appear in ? Blocks, and can be added to the item storage if Mario already has a power-up. As of version 1.1.0, when Mario collects 100 coins before leaving Fur Step Island, only Super Mushrooms are awarded, rather than any item.

Super Mario Maker / Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS[edit]

The Super Mushroom appears as an element in Super Mario Maker and Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS in every game style. They can make enemies larger and, after an update, can be stacked on power-ups. Dragging a Super Mushroom into an already enlarged object will make it even bigger, but it will cough it out, returning to its previous size, as enlarged objects cannot get any bigger than they already are. After clearing the four Nintendo World Championships 2015 courses, shaking a Super Mushroom in the Super Mario Bros. style turns it into a Weird Mushroom, though when playing courses, hitting a block with a Super Mushroom has a 1% chance of a Weird Mushroom appearing instead, regardless of whether or not it has been unlocked.

Super Mario Run[edit]

Super Mushrooms return in Super Mario Run and have the same purpose in other games, to turn Small Mario/Luigi into Super Mario/Luigi. Super Mushrooms can sometimes be found outside of blocks. In certain cases, a Super Mushroom found outside of a block may not move at all; some courses even have a floating Super Mushroom. Super Mushrooms that do move have behavior unique to this game: If the player is ahead of a Super Mushroom and the Super Mushroom is moving toward them, the Super Mushroom speeds up to collide with the player. The player can outrun a Super Mushroom during a Coin Rush or while they are invincible. Super Mushrooms do not move past the player once they are in this "chasing" state outside of certain circumstances involving cutscenes. Once a Super Mushroom reaches the player's vertical position, it switches to moving at the same speed as the player.

If Mario and Luigi are already in their Super forms when they grab a Super Mushroom, they get five coins instead. Super Mario Run does not have item storage, unlike Super Mario World, the New Super Mario Bros. series, Super Mario 3D Land, and Super Mario 3D World.

In versions of Super Mario Run prior to the Fall 2017 update, Peach, Toad, Toadette, and Yoshi did not have small forms to shrink into when getting hit. Therefore, Super Mushrooms had no effect on them. Their default state acted identically to Super Mario, as they were as tall as Super Mario and could break Brick Blocks. They received five coins for Super Mushrooms instead, but they were defeated by one hit.

In versions since the Fall 2017 update, Peach, Toad, Toadette, and Yoshi gained small forms to shrink into upon being hit. They continue to start levels in the large form. If they are defeated by pits, poison or lava, they enter a bubble in small form. Thus, Super Mushrooms turn them back into their regular big forms. If they are already at their normal size, these characters get five coins instead.

In Remix 10, if the player collects 100 coins while small, the coin counter resets and the player is given a Super Mushroom in a bubble.

There is a Super Mushroom Statue item in the Kingdom Builder mode, The 8-bit Super Mushroom Trim and 8-bit Super Mushroom Statue are other Kingdom Builder items that use the Super Mushroom's appearance from Super Mario Bros.

Super Mario Odyssey[edit]

No Super Mushrooms appear in Super Mario Odyssey, although a number of mushroom-shaped objects, such as Starshrooms, do appear.

Super Mario Maker 2[edit]

Super Mushrooms return in Super Mario Maker 2 functioning the same way they did in its predecessor. In the nighttime ground theme, Super Mushrooms bounce away from the player.

Super Mario Bros. 35[edit]

Super Mushrooms appear in Super Mario Bros. 35. If collected by Super or Fire Mario, they add 15 seconds to the timer instead of changing Mario's power-up state. The Item Roulette has a chance of granting the player a Super Mushroom.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder[edit]

Super Mushrooms appear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, acting the same as in other games.[8]

Super Mario World television series[edit]

In the Super Mario World episode "King Scoopa Koopa", a Super Mushroom appears as one of the items in the Roulette Block. This is the only time a Super Mushroom is depicted in the DIC Entertainment-produced cartoons.

Yoshi's Safari[edit]

Super Mushrooms, referred to as Power-up Mushrooms,[9] reappear in Yoshi's Safari. They are dropped from Flying ? Blocks. When dropped from a yellow Flying ? Block, some of the player's LIFE Meter is recovered and they earn 1,500 bonus points. Power-up Mushrooms can also be dropped from dark teal Flying ? Blocks and are used for boss battles only, functioning the same way they do outside the battle. When not used at all, 2,000 bonus points are added to the player's highscore.

Donkey Kong (Game Boy)[edit]

Super Mushrooms also make an appearance in Donkey Kong for the Game Boy. They are used by Donkey Kong shortly before the final battle. He ends up using several of them to transform himself into a giant. A Super Mushroom is also briefly seen in the ending when Pauline gives one to Mario, so that he can change his size and catch Donkey Kong when he is falling.

Hotel Mario[edit]

Sprite of a Super Mushroom or Extra Mario Mushroom

The Super Mushroom appears in Hotel Mario. It still gives Mario an extra hitpoint, but it now affects the color of his overalls instead of his size.

In the v0.09 prototype, Super Mushrooms are Toad instead.[10]

UNDAKE30 Same Game[edit]

In UNDAKE30 Same Game, Super Mushrooms appear as one of the icons on the playing field.

Mario's FUNdamentals[edit]

In Mario's FUNdamentals, images of Super Mushrooms appear in the Dominoes game on dominoes numbered 5.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[edit]

Green Mushroom.png

In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Super Mushrooms, localized as Mid Mushrooms, appear as healing items. They have green caps to distinguish them from ordinary Mushrooms and restore 80 HP to one party member when used.

Mario Party series[edit]

For a list of probabilities of triple Dice Block rolls with Golden Mushrooms, see Triple Dice § Probabilities.

Super Mushrooms appear as usable items in many games in the Mario Party series. In these games, the Super Mushroom is depicted as a shiny, golden variant of the regular Mushroom, and its effect is a stronger variant of the regular Mushroom's effect. Similar items have appeared in games in which the Super Mushroom is not present, such as the Super Mega Mushroom in Mario Party 4, the Thrice Candy in Mario Party 8, and the Triple Dice Set in Mario Party DS. The Golden Dash Mushroom also has a similar role as a stronger, golden variant of the Dash Mushroom in Mario Party: Island Tour, Mario Party: Star Rush, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Super Mario Party.

Mario Party 2[edit]

Golden Mushroom MP2-3.png

The Super Mushroom first appears in the Mario Party series in Mario Party 2, although it is known as the Golden Mushroom in the English localization. When used, the Golden Mushroom allows a player to roll three Dice Blocks instead of just one, traveling a number of spaces equal to the sum of the numbers rolled. If the player rolls the same number on all three Dice Blocks, they are granted 20 coins, or 50 coins for triple 7s. It can be bought from an Item Shop for 20 coins.

In addition to this item, a different golden-colored mushroom called the Gold Mushroom appears in the minigames Rakin' 'em In and Grab Bag.

Mario Party 3[edit]

The Golden Mushroom reappears in Mario Party 3 with the same name, appearance, and effects as in Mario Party 2. It can be bought from Toad's Trading Post for 10 coins. It also has the ability to negate curses granted by Bowser, Poison Mushrooms, and Reverse Mushrooms. It is Mario's favorite item in this game.

Mario Party 5[edit]

Super Mushroom Capsule

The Super Mushroom returns under its usual name in Mario Party 5, now in capsule form as the Super Mushroom Capsule. The Super Mushroom Capsule can be obtained from a capsule machine like other capsules and can either be thrown onto a space for free or used on the player for 10 coins. When used or activated, it grants the player a Super Mushroom, which retains its shiny, golden appearance and effects from Mario Party 2, though rolling triples (other than triple 7s) now grants the player 30 coins.

Mario Party 6[edit]

Super 'Shroom Orb from Mario Party 6
The Super 'Shroom Orb as it appears in Mario Party 6

The Super Mushroom Capsule reappears in Mario Party 6 under the name Super 'Shroom Orb. It can once again be used by players to gain the same benefits as in Mario Party 5, though it can no longer be thrown onto spaces due to the revised Orb system. It can be obtained from Orb Spaces or bought at an Orb hut, usually for 15 coins.

Mario Party 7[edit]

The Super 'Shroom Orb reappears in Mario Party 7 with the same name, appearance and effects as in Mario Party 6. When used in a Team Battle, both team members roll three Dice Blocks numbered 1-5, and if the same number is rolled on all six dice, the team is granted 300 coins.

Paper Mario series[edit]

Paper Mario[edit]

In Paper Mario, the Super Mushroom is localized as the Super Shroom. It has a blue cap and heals 10 HP for one party member. Mario can use it to make various mushroom-based recipes, like Life Shrooms, with other basic items. Super Shrooms can be bought in Harry's Shop, Boo's Mansion, Yoshi's Village, Shiver City, Star Haven, Rip Cheato, and Bowser's Castle. White Li'l Oinks also leave them.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Super Mushrooms (originally referred to as Super Shrooms) can be bought at Westside Goods, the souvenir shop, Twilight Shop, Keelhaul Galleria, Sales Stall and Northwinds Mart, and can be dropped by certain enemies.

Super Paper Mario[edit]

In Super Paper Mario, Super Shrooms can be found within ? Blocks found in stages midway through the game. Here, they heal 20 HP on contact with the player, as opposed to the usual 10 in the previous two games. Their carry-on equivalent is the Super Shroom Shake.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

SmashWiki article: Super Mushroom
A Super Mushroom in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The Super Mushroom in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

The Super Mushroom appears as an item in all games of the Super Smash Bros. series, starting with Super Smash Bros. Melee. It allows any fighter to grow to a bigger size, thus making them heavier and harder to launch, while also increasing their run and fall speed. Giga Bowser and Giga Mac are unaffected by Super Mushrooms, since they are already very large. A Super Mushroom also increases the amount of damage that the fighter can deal to opponents, in addition to improving the fighter's reach in their attacks. Starting with Super Smash Bros. Brawl, all direct attacks can deal 1.56x their normal damage while the fighter is giant-sized, and they only move right upon emerging. The damage multiplier excludes projectile attacks, however. Aesthetically, the user's voice is also lower-pitched. In Melee, they resemble the appearance of generic Mushrooms in Mario Party 2; their modern design (adapted from the Mushrooms in Mario Kart DS) is used for Super Smash Bros. Brawl and all subsequent appearances. A Super Mushroom is also the symbol of the Super Mario franchise.

Throughout the series, there have also been collectible items of a Super Mushroom. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, a Super Mushroom can be randomly obtained from the Lottery or in one of the single-player modes. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is both a trophy and a sticker of a Super Mushroom, both of which are unlocked at random. The sticker, simply named "Mushroom," can be used in The Subspace Emissary by either Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, or Yoshi to increase the power of their arm- and leg-based attacks by 5 points. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, there is another trophy of a Super Mushroom, again unlocked at random. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, there is an Advanced-class support spirit of a Super Mushroom, which increases the fighter's attack, defense, and speed after eating food, and it can be obtained from Timmy & Tommy's shop. A Super Mushroom spirit's core can be combined with Metal Mario's and a Fire Flower's cores to summon the Gold Mario spirit.

Mario & Luigi series[edit]

In the Mario & Luigi series, Super Mushrooms refill 50 HP (45 HP in the Japanese version of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga) in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, 40 HP in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, and 60 HP in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, and Mario & Luigi: Brothership.

WarioWare series[edit]

In the WarioWare series, a Super Mushroom first appears in the Grow Wario Grow microgame in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, where Wario has to collect it before Mario does. After this appearance, Super Mushrooms went on to appear in a few of 9-Volt's microgames. In WarioWare: Twisted! and later WarioWare Gold, Super Mushrooms appear in the Super Mario Bros. microgame, where Mario can obtain a Super Mushroom from a ? Block, just like in its namesake game. In Level 2 of the Super Mario Land microgame in WarioWare: Get It Together!, the player's character is required to hit a ? Block and collect the Super Mushroom inside. Upon collecting it, the character grows in size.

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games[edit]

Super Mushrooms appear as items in the Dream Basketball event in the Nintendo DS version of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. If a Powerup Ball with one on is successfully thrown into a hoop, the player's hoops will become larger for a short amount of time. They also appear as items in Dream Shooting, where they can be obtained by shooting an Item Box. In this event, they are used immediately and give the player a larger cursor for a limited amount of time, or until they move forward.

Mario Clock[edit]

The DSiWare game Mario Clock features both Super and Poison Mushrooms.

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker[edit]

Super Mushrooms also return in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS ports. Like in the main series of games, Super Mushrooms turn Small Captain Toad and Small Toadette into their Super forms. If the player collects a Super Mushroom while the character is in Super form, they instead earn 10 coins like in Super Mario 3D Land.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

In Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a Super Mushroom emerging from a block appears as a cameo in a Super Mario Bros.-styled graffiti on the underground wall in Super Bell Subway.

Luigi's Mansion (Nintendo 3DS)[edit]

Luigi's Mansion screenshot
The Super Mushroom in the Nintendo 3DS remake

The Super Mushroom can be bumped or dumped by vases or ghosts respectively instead of the Poison Mushroom in the Nintendo 3DS remake of Luigi's Mansion for the Nintendo 3DS by using the Mario amiibo figurine. It restores 25 HP upon collecting.

Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope[edit]

In Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, Super Mushrooms appear as items that restore 30% of a hero's HP in battle. There are also Super Mushroom Bags, Super Mushroom Chests, and Super Mushroom Chest DXs, which restore 50%, 70%, and 100% of HP respectively.

If Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is linked with an Ubisoft Connect account, one Super Mushroom can be added to the player's inventory for free upon clearing the prologue.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie[edit]

In The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Princess Peach feeds Mario a Super Mushroom (known in the film as a red mushroom)[11] before testing him on the Training Course. Every time Mario takes damage on the Training Course, he eats another red mushroom before running it again. Mario is also seen eating a red mushroom to transform into Super Mario before fighting Bowser's Minions with Donkey Kong. Mario initially has a disdain towards eating the mushrooms, and at one point during the training montage, ends up throwing up for eating too many of them.

Other appearances[edit]

This mysterious mushroom will cause you to grow several times your normal size. Once you've grown, the power of your attacks and your ability to launch your opponents will increase. However, being so large—and such an easy target—may not be so great in a fight with lots of enemies... (American English)
This mysterious mushroom will just keep sliding until it bounces off a wall. If you touch it, though, you'll grow and grow and grow! You'll get stronger and be harder to launch, but you'll also be a much easier target. Maybe standing out so much during a fight isn't such a good idea... (British English)

Trivia[edit]

  • The manual of the original Super Mario Bros. actually refers to the Super Mushroom as the "Magic Mushroom," but the name was changed due to the unintentional reference to hallucinogenic mushrooms.[citation needed] The original Japanese manual referred to them as Super Mushrooms, and the English name was reverted to its original Japanese name in future games.
  • The Super Mushroom sound effect has the same tune as the one that plays after Mario/Luigi grabs the Goal Pole in Super Mario Bros., but it is sped up, missing the last sequence of notes, is arranged differently, and is higher-pitched.[22][23]
  • In the Super Mario Mash-up in Minecraft, red mushrooms are replaced by Super Mushrooms.
  • In Mario Party 2, when using a Golden Mushroom, the Dice Block uses the sound effect for the Slow Block from the original Mario Party, while the regular Mushroom uses the Speed Block's sound effect; the reverse is true in Mario Party 3.
  • Chef Toad's cap resembles the current Super Mushroom design.
