Spiked Goombas, as they were called in this game, made their debut appearance here. They are first seen in [[Goomba Road]], but also appear in many different locations, such as [[Pleasant Path]]. A single Spiked Goomba also appears at [[Bowser's Castle]], and was in charge of guarding the items in the storage room. However, instead of guarding them, he decided to sell them to [[Mario]] and company as if the storage room was an item shop.
 
===''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''===
Spiky Goombas appear in several locations in the game, notably the [[Rogueport Sewers]]. Once Mario has the [[Spike Shield]] badge, he can jump on them without getting hurt.
 
===''[[Super Paper Mario]]''===
In ''Super Paper Mario'', Spiked Goombas once again appear. They, as always, cannot be stomped by normal means. However, they can be defeated by using a [[Pixl]], such as [[Boomer (Pixl)|Boomer]], [[Carrie]], [[Barry]], or [[Cudge]]. Bowser's fire breath attack can also toast them. They appear in the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]] in rooms 12 and 38.
 
The spiky helmets they use (Or possible green spike top shells) appeared as an item in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' for the Nintendo 3DS.
