History[edit]
Super Mario series[edit]
New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]
Super Acorns are items in New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U, and their enhanced port. Super Acorns are introduced in the first level: Acorn Plains Way in New Super Mario Bros. U and Waddlewing Warning! in New Super Luigi U. They originate from a large Acorn Tree in Acorn Plains, as seen in the games' introduction. Super Acorns are usually found within ? Blocks, but they can also be carried by Waddlewings, which must be defeated to release them. When released, Super Acorns start rolling on the ground and change direction when they touch a wall, similarly to a Super Mushroom. When collected, Super Acorns confer Flying Squirrel abilities, such as gliding and sticking to walls for a short time. There are some Super Acorns rolling around in some parts of the world map, where they can be collected instantly and stored into the inventory.
In the enhanced port, the Super Crown replaces most of the Super Acorns in ? Blocks when hit by Toadette.

In Super Mario Run, Super Acorns appear on Acorn Trees, a decoration that can be placed in Kingdom Builder mode. They have no gameplay effect.
