Spiny, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Spiny Eggs, originally known as Spiny's eggs,[1] are the projectiles thrown by Lakitus, and a form of the Spiny. Spiny Eggs are small, usually red balls covered in spikes. Once they touch the ground, they turn into normal Spinies. Despite its name, a Spiny Egg does not appear to be a typical egg at all; instead, it seems to simply be a Spiny rolled up into a ball. While in this state, they can be defeated when touched by invincible characters, burned by Fire Mario's fireballs, attacked by Raccoon Mario's or Tanooki Mario's Tail attack, etc.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario Bros. / Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels[edit]

Spiny Egg artwork for Super Mario Bros.
A Spiny Egg, as originally designed for Super Mario Bros.

Spiny's eggs first appear in Super Mario Bros. and its dual-purpose add-on and sequel, Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, and return in both games' remakes included in Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Bros. Deluxe. Spiny's eggs are exactly the same in both games, and sport more of an oval shape than in later appearances. Spiny's eggs demonstrate their basic behaviors in this game: they are thrown directly down from where Lakitu threw them, and on contact with land, turn into Spinies. In the manual, Spiny's eggs are listed separately from Spinies themselves. Lakitu will always throw either one or two Spiny's eggs at a time, depending on what form Mario/Luigi is in: if Mario is Small, he will only throw one egg, but if Mario is Super/Fire, then he will throw two eggs (this corresponds to how many hits Mario must take before losing a life).

Notably, code leftover in the game suggests that Spiny's eggs were meant to move horizontally in the direction Lakitu was flying when he threw them, as well as bounce off of walls. Whether this was deliberately cut or unavailable due to a glitch is unknown.[2]

Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

Super Mario Bros. 3 included the return of the original red Spiny Egg, which is colored orange in the Super Mario All-Stars remake. In addition to the red Spiny Egg, a new green Spiny Egg was introduced, which slowly rolls along the ground chasing Mario and does not hatch. The Spiny Eggs in this game are spherical, as opposed to oval-shaped, which has become their standard appearance.

Super Mario World[edit]

Sprite of a Spiny Egg

In Super Mario World, Spiny Eggs are notably colored orange in all releases of the game, since Spinies in Super Mario World are also orange. In addition, along with normal Lakitus, they can also be thrown by Fishin' Lakitus and Lakitus found within pipes. Like Spinies themselves, Spiny Eggs can be safely Spin Jumped on.

Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS[edit]

A Spiny Egg from Super Mario 64

Spiny Eggs, referred to as "Spiny bombs",[3] are again thrown by Lakitus in Super Mario 64. Much like the game's Spinies, they have yellow spikes, as opposed to white spikes. On Tiny-Huge Island, they can be thrown into the water, where they will sink and eventually disappear. They reappear in Super Mario 64 DS, following the same rules, in with their current design. If Yoshi eats a Spiny and spits it out, it will bounce around as an egg.

New Super Mario Bros.[edit]

In New Super Mario Bros., Spiny Eggs reappear, with a new property. If a normal Spiny touches water, it will tuck itself back into a Spiny Egg until it exits water. Spiny Eggs float on the surface of the water, and still damage Mario while in the water.

In addition to the standard Spiny eggs, Lakithunder is capable of throwing ricocheting Spiny Eggs that bounce around a few times before it loses momentum, at which point the Spiny Egg will hatch.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]

Spiny Eggs reappear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

Super Mario Galaxy 2[edit]

King Lakitu throwing Spiny Eggs in Super Mario Galaxy 2

In Super Mario Galaxy 2, Yoshi can turn Spinies back into Spiny Eggs by licking them. Yoshi can then proceed to swallow Spiny Eggs and spit them back out, which can be used as projectiles to hurt enemies or break glass containers. King Lakitu throws them as well during his boss fight, which can be eaten and spat out by Yoshi. Spiny Eggs are also one of the few objects that did not previously appear in Super Mario Galaxy.

New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

In New Super Mario Bros. 2, they reappear. If Mario touches a Gold Ring, Lakitu will throw coins, as opposed to Spiny Eggs, although there is an unusedMedia:Gold Spiny Egg.png golden Spiny Egg variant in the files.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U[edit]

Spiny Eggs once again reappear in New Super Mario Bros. U, where they function as usual. In addition to these, a Piranha Plant-based relative, the Piranha Pod, makes its debut.

Super Mario Maker / Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS / Super Mario Maker 2[edit]

SMM SMB Spiny Egg.png

Spiny Eggs reappear in Super Mario Maker, Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS, and Super Mario Maker 2. When a Spiny is placed in the Underwater level style, the Spiny turns back into a Spiny Egg and begins floating in place. If Mario hits a block while a Spiny Egg is above it, it turns back into a Spiny. In the Super Mario Bros. theme, Spinies have horizontal momentum, unlike in the original game. If a Spiny is given Wings, it will briefly turn into a Spiny Egg as it fires its Spikes, though this is purely visual. A winged Spiny will not retreat into a Spiny Egg if it is within water.

In Super Mario Maker 2, if water in the Jungle theme catches a Spiny, it will immobilize into a Spiny Egg, and remain in that form until it is no longer completely submerged. This occurs even if the water rises into a Spiny Egg, or if the water sinks to beneath a Spiny Egg.

Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen![edit]

In Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!, Spiny's eggs appear twice. The first time is a role as one of the enemies coming out of Mario's television when he is playing Family Computer at the beginning of the film. The second time is when a Lakitu throws several Spiny's eggs at Mario, Luigi, and Kibidango, but it missed. He uses rain and a mirror to make them grow into big-sized Spinies.

DIC cartoons[edit]

A green Spiny Egg from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "Life's Ruff".

Spiny Eggs briefly appear in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Mario and the Red Baron Koopa", where they are entirely pink, and act more or less like they do in Super Mario Bros. Later on, a single, green Spiny Egg is thrown by a Lakitu in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "Life's Ruff". This Spiny Egg makes a small explosion upon hitting the ground and turning into a normal Spiny.

Nintendo Adventure Books[edit]

Some Spiny Eggs, presumably transported to Dark Land by Wendy O. Koopa (who needs them for use in a potion), appear in Koopa Capers. While exploring a Fortress, Luigi finds a room filled with the eggs and some Ptooie, but he manages to evade them while wondering what they are doing in a dank fortress chamber, instead of being outside.

Yoshi's Safari[edit]

A Spiny Egg from Yoshi's Safari

In Yoshi's Safari, Spiny Eggs appear being dropped from the Lakitu miniboss both before and during its fight in Ghost Mansion, and again during its fight in Bowser's Castle. They are entirely orange in this game.

Yoshi's Island series[edit]

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island / Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3[edit]

This section is about the Lakitu projectile referred to as "Needlenose" in Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. For the Pokey enemy initially referred to as Needlenose, see Pokey (projectile).

In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its remake, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3, Spiny Eggs (referred to as "Needlenoses"[4] in the Game Boy Advance version) are thrown by Lakitus, Wall Lakitus, and Aqua Lakitus. In these games, they do not hatch into Spinies, and instead explode, which can destroy soft rocks. The point at which the various Lakitus are throwing Needlenoses is displayed via a crosshair reticle, similar to Yoshi's Egg reticle.

Yoshi's Island DS[edit]

Spiny Eggs appear in Yoshi's Island DS, functioning identically as in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Since Aqua Lakitus do not appear in this game, Spiny Eggs are thrown only by Lakitus and Wall Lakitus.

Yoshi's New Island[edit]

Spiny Eggs appear in Yoshi's New Island, retaining the same function as before. Like in Yoshi's Island DS, Spiny Eggs are thrown only by Lakitus and Wall Lakitus, since no Aqua Lakitus appear in this game.

Tetris Attack[edit]

Lakitu

In Tetris Attack, a Spiny Egg makes a cameo appearance in Lakitu's background, where he is throwing one down.

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

In Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its remake, Spiny Eggs instead turn into Spikies, Spikesters, and Urspikes. The former two are thrown by Lakitus, while the latter are knocked down from the ceiling by a Stompillar.

Paper Mario series[edit]

Paper Mario[edit]

In Paper Mario, Spinies, which appear in Flower Fields, could roll back into Spiny Eggs to attack. Lakitu also throw Spiny Eggs as an attack. Lakilester also uses Spiny Eggs in the attacks Spiny Flip and Spiny Surge, as well as in his fight against Mario under his nickname "Spike".

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door[edit]

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Spinies again attack by rolling into Spiny Eggs, and can now roll into eggs to make themselves invulnerable for a turn. They appear in the Glitz Pit. When Sky-Blue Spinies roll back into a Spiny Egg, they turn into "pipes," which are named as such due to mistranslation of the Japanese name, Paipo. The Nintendo Switch remake fixes this mistranslation to call them Spiny Eggs.

Super Paper Mario[edit]

In Super Paper Mario, Spiny Eggs act as they do in Super Mario Bros. They are found in the Dotwood Tree, The Overthere, and the Flipside Pit of 100 Trials. They do not have a dark version, as they are absent from The Flopside Pit of 100 Trials

Paper Mario: Sticker Star[edit]

Spiny Eggs appear only when being thrown by Lakitu in Paper Mario: Sticker Star, and as such, only appear on the overworld. Lakitu will endlessly throw them, leading to an infinite supply of Spinies.

Paper Mario: Color Splash[edit]

In Paper Mario: Color Splash, Spinies occasionally enter battle in Spiny Eggs.

Mario & Luigi series[edit]

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions[edit]

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Sharpeas appear as eggs when thrown by Lakipeas. Regular Spinies and Sharpeas appear as eggs in the remake during the Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser mode whenever using their Spin to Win Special Skill.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time[edit]

In Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, a Shroob-like version is dropped by Lakitufos and hatch into Spiny Shroopas, which also roll up into eggs to attack.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey[edit]

In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and its remake, large golden Spiny Eggs are thrown by Glam Lakitus and Lakitu Kings, though they do not hatch. Regular Spinies once again turn into eggs in the remake's Bowser Jr.'s Journey mode when using their Hit 'em Up Special Skill.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team[edit]

In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Lakitus and Lakitus R attack by throwing Spiny Eggs at Mario. Spinies and Spinies R have an attack where some of the group jump as Spiny Eggs while the others tackle Mario. During the battle with Bowser Jr., the Bros. can throw Spiny Eggs at him if they take his Junior Clown Car.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam[edit]

In Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, both normal and paper versions of Spinies roll into Spiny Eggs to attack.

Mario Party series[edit]

In the Mario Party series, Spiny Eggs sometimes appear as obstacles, mostly just in minigames. In Mario Party Advance, Spiny Eggs are obstacles in the mini-game Dreadmill. In Mario Party 7, Spiny Eggs appear in the Coinus Maximus event in Grand Canal. Here, Shy Guys throw both coins and Spiny Eggs to the player, which must be dodged to not lose any coins. In Mario Party 8, they appear as hazards in the mini-games Water Ski Spree, Winner or Dinner, and Grabbin' Gold, briefly stunning whoever touches them. In Mario Party: Island Tour, a Lakitu throws Spiny Eggs in the minigame Pachinko Wizard to eliminate players, and in the minigame Deck Hunt, Spiny Eggs reduce the player's coin count upon contact.

Super Princess Peach[edit]

Spiny Egg are obstacles in Super Princess Peach. They are based on their appearance from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, except Spiny Eggs do not display a cursor when targeting Princess Peach. Despite Spinies also appearing in the game, the eggs still explode instead of turning into them.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

In the Super Smash Bros. series, Spiny Eggs appear as part of the Lakitu Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, reusing their exact sprites from Super Mario Bros. In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS's Smash Run mode, the Spiny Eggs, as well as the Lakitu enemy, are modeled in 3D, unlike the Assist Trophy.

Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition[edit]

Although Spiny Eggs are not allies in Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition, they do still make an appearance as the Spiny helper can be evolved into a helper called Lakitu and Spiny Egg through the use of Lakitu Coins. This helper can be evolved again into a helper called Lakitu’s and Spiny Eggs.

Yoshi's Woolly World / Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World[edit]

Spiny Eggs return in Yoshi's Woolly World and its remake, retaining their same behavior in Yoshi's New Island.

Yoshi's Crafted World[edit]

In Yoshi's Crafted World, Spiny Eggs return, but only as objects thrown by Wall Lakitus. A Spiny Egg can be used to defeat a Wall Lakitu.
