Superball Mario is a form Mario takes when he uses a Superball Flower, first appearing in Super Mario Land. It allows Mario to shoot Superballs which rebound off surfaces and can defeat enemies.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario Land

Superball Mario is a form in Super Mario Land. There is no visual transformation, and even artwork (as seen to the right) depicts Mario as wearing his normal clothes. Superball Mario gains the ability to throw Superballs by pressing B Button. Like the similar Fire Mario form and its fireballs, the Superballs damage enemies, but also have the unique ability to collect coins that they hit. Unlike fireballs, Superballs do not bounce along the ground, but ricochet at right angles on surfaces. Only one Superball can be onscreen at a time, and will disappear approximately four seconds after being shot, unless it touches an enemy or Mario, goes off-screen, or is destroyed. Many enemies require multiple Superballs to defeat, unlike fireballs, which typically defeat any non-boss enemy in one hit.

Super Mario Maker 2

Superball Mario is a form in Super Mario Maker 2. It can be obtained with the Superball Flower, though in the Super Mario Bros. game style only. The Superballs thrown can also collect Pink Coins and Keys, activate P Switches and POW Blocks, and ignite Bob-ombs. It changes the player character's colors to dark tones of green, referencing the Game Boy's screen colors. The form also changes the current theme's music to an arrangement of the Super Mario Land Ground Theme with a soundfont similar to that of the Family Computer and NES, and also changes the "level clear" and "lose a life" jingles to their respective Super Mario Land counterparts. The Superball form can be unlocked in Story Mode by clearing the job Spiny Shell Smashers. An outfit based on Superball Mario is unlocked alongside the Superball Flower, which has a 3D model of Small Mario for the head and Mario's overalls, both with the Superball form's colors.

WarioWare Gold

Superball Mario is featured in the Super Mario Land microgame of WarioWare Gold, where he has to defeat all of the enemies.

Profiles

Super Mario Land

  • Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console manual description:
    • English:
      When you pick up a Flower, Super Mario will become Superball Mario. He will be able to defeat enemies by throwing Superballs.
      Note: If you pick up a Flower when you are regular Mario, he will become Super Mario instead of Superball Mario. This does not apply to Flowers received in bonus games.[page number needed]
