Flying Mario
Flying Mario is a form taken by Mario in Super Mario Galaxy. In this form, Mario's hat and overalls become black, while his overall buttons & shoes become red (Luigi undergoes the same changes except Green instead of Red). It actives whenever he touches a Red Star. While in this form, spinning while jumping allows Mario to fly. This is simliar to the Wing Cap ability from Super Mario 64, except that the Player has much more control, and Mario can fly the whole time, rather than having to gain momentum first. After a limited amount of time, Flying Mario will become Normal Mario. It is first used when Mario returns to the Gateway Galaxy to collect 100 Purple Coins. However, it is a fairly useless ability as it can only be used to fly around the observatory. Flying Mario can only fly to the top of the ship.
