- “Luigi, I found this cap in front of the castle a little while ago. You must have dropped it. If you want to become a full-fledged hero like your brother, you can't be so careless!”
- —Toad, Super Mario 64 DS
The Luigi Cap (or Luigi's cap) is one of Luigi's important pieces of clothing. Like his brother, Luigi has worn the cap since he was a baby.
History[edit]
Mario Bros.[edit]
In Mario Bros., the Luigi Cap color was taken from the Shellcreeper's palette to distinguish Mario from Luigi. The cap was made green with a green L emblem.
Super Mario series[edit]
Super Mario Bros. / Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels[edit]
The Luigi Cap was recolored white in Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels.
Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]
In Super Mario Bros. 2, the tip of the cap had been changed to black instead of its usual green. This happened for the Mario Cap as well. However, after this game, the Luigi Cap reverted to having a green tip.
Super Mario 64 DS[edit]
In Super Mario 64 DS, Luigi's cap is used to shape-shift into Luigi if the player is either Mario, Wario, or Yoshi. In the same game, Luigi is affected in the same way as Mario and Wario if his cap is lost. Luigi's defense and attack sharply decline while his cap is absent from his head. If the player gets the cap back, Luigi's attack and defense revert to normal. Until Luigi is unlocked, it appears only in Big Boo's Haunt, during any mission except the first one. If the player obtains a Power Flower while wearing the cap, they turn into Vanish Luigi. If he loses his cap and gains a Power Star from another level, Luigi can simply talk to a Toad (who will have found and be wearing Luigi's cap) in the Mushroom Castle's lobby and get it back from him.
Super Mario 3D Land / Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]
In Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World, Luigi, like his brother, loses his cap in his Small form. However, in the former game, once the player has 1,110 lives, his regular form loses his cap instead.
Super Mario Odyssey[edit]
The Luigi Cap can be obtained for Mario to wear in Super Mario Odyssey. It can be either purchased from a Crazy Cap store or obtained through scanning a Luigi amiibo (the latter also unlocks Luigi's costume).
Mario Kart series[edit]
Mario Kart 64[edit]
In Mario Kart 64's Luigi Raceway, a giant version of the Luigi Cap can be seen atop the grandstand.
Mario Kart Wii[edit]
Another giant Luigi Cap returns on Mario Kart Wii's Luigi Circuit, where it once again can be seen atop the grandstand of the track.
Mario Kart 7[edit]
The giant Luigi Cap atop the grandstand returns in Mario Kart 7 in N64 Luigi Raceway.
Mario Kart Tour[edit]
A glider based on Luigi's cap, aptly named Luigi's Hat Balloon, debuted in Mario Kart Tour on the 2022 Mario vs. Luigi Tour. N64 Luigi Raceway also returns in the aforementioned tour, which also marks the return of the giant Luigi Cap atop the grandstand of that course.
Mario & Luigi series[edit]
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, the L on the Luigi Cap is black. The Mario Cap was changed in the same way. From Mario & Luigi: Dream Team onward, they are the usual green and red.
Mario & Luigi: Dream Team[edit]
In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Luigi's cap takes on an additional game role. When Luigi is sleeping and Mario is in the Dream World, the Touch Screen is dedicated to showing Luigi and Starlow. Starlow can push Luigi's cap over, so as to cover Luigi's face, but Luigi pushes it back up. Heavy impacts in the Dream World, like Bowser's stomping and the Luiginoids using a Ground Pound, also knock over the cap.
When Dreamy Luigi is in trouble, the L mark on the real Luigi's cap starts to glow. When Starlow presses down on the L, Luiginoids combine with Dreamy Luigi and transform him into Giant Luigi.
Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix[edit]
In Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, if the player plays as Luigi, his house has a giant Luigi Cap as a roof.
Super Smash Bros. series[edit]
Luigi's cap can be equipped on a Mii Fighter in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Super Paper Mario[edit]
In Super Paper Mario, when Luigi is brainwashed into Mr. L, his cap is slightly changed, with the white on his cap being turned to black and the L in the middle being turned backwards.
Mario Sports Superstars[edit]
Luigi's Hat can be unlocked as a head accessory for a horse in Mario Sports Superstars.
Mario + Rabbids series[edit]
Rabbid Luigi from Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope wears a Luigi Cap.
Other appearances[edit]
The Luigi Cap is one of the collectible treasure items in Densetsu no Starfy. It is found in the Pufftop Kingdom.
A replica of the Luigi Cap, the Green Hat, is an item in Nintendogs that the player's dog can wear.
In Animal Crossing: City Folk, and later New Leaf, there is a headgear item resembling the Luigi Cap that the player's avatar can wear. The item is called "li'l bro's hat," in reference to Luigi being the younger brother of Mario.
