Money Money is a badge in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. In Paper Mario, it can be bought from Merlow for twenty Star Pieces. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, it can be bought from the Pianta Parlor for 234 pianta tokens with the Platinum Card, and can be rarely dropped by Dark Boos, Bill Blasters, and Bombshell Bill Blasters. In the remake, it can also be won by answering one of the Creepy Steeple Boo's quizzes. If Mario equips the badge, he gets more coins after a battle, though the exact amount depends; in Paper Mario, he gets exactly double what he would have normally obtained, while in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the number of coins he obtains varies from being slightly less to slightly more coins, which can be augmented by equipping more copies of the badge; however, the maximum amount of coins that can be dropped from an enemy is 32 (when equipped with many copies)[1]. In the Switch remake, it has been increased to 99.

Merluvlee's prediction in Paper Mario

  • "I see...a Money Money Badge. There is a child upstairs in the fortune-teller's house on Shooting Star Summit. Hey! I'm that fortune-teller! Anyway, the child is my brother, Merlow. He will trade Star Pieces for Badges. Head upstairs to see him!"
