Trivia
- The Penguin Suit seems to mimic the shell dash function of the Blue Shell from New Super Mario Bros. in that both items allow the wearer to slide along surfaces at faster speeds than running.
- The design for the Penguin Suit is obviously a reference to the suits in the game Super Mario Bros. 3, appearing as a whole costume.
- The Penguin Suit is also quite similar to the Tanooki Suit in Super Mario Bros. 3, when inspected from the fact that Penguin Mario is basically an upgraded version of Ice Mario, in a similar fashion that Tanooki Mario is to Raccoon Mario.
- The Penguin Suit is rather similar to the penguin suit in the Wii Fit game "Penguin Slide".
- The Penguin Suit is similar to the Frog Suit of Super Mario Bros. 3, allowing the player more control in the water.
