Foreman Spike
For other uses of the name Spike, see Spike (disambiguation).
Foreman Spike was the angry foreman of the construction site where Mario and Luigi worked. Rather than help them, Spike continuously tried to hinder the brothers from doing their job and raked in the cash for himself. He is a fat, bearded villain who always wears sunglasses, although in Wrecking Crew '98, he did not have a beard. Foreman Spike is said to be a prototype for Wario and/or Waluigi, much like Pauline was for Princess Peach.
History
Wrecking Crew series
Wrecking Crew
Foreman Spike first appeared in the bonus stages and some phases from the game Wrecking Crew. While Mario runs around in the foreground, Spike runs around in the background trying to outdo the hero. He will smash down walls, and tries to knock Mario off the platform he's standing on. However, Mario can do the same back to him. He also appears in the later regular stages.
Wrecking Crew '98
Foreman Spike returns in the Japan-only title Wrecking Crew '98. He is the fifth challenger in the puzzle mode game. In this game, Spike is working for Bowser himself, helping the Koopa king build a series of new hideouts. Additionally, Foreman Spike has been completely redesigned as a mustachioed army man (however, this is only a change is exclusive to this game).
Mobile Golf
In the Japan-only Game Boy golf title Mobile Golf, Foreman Spike is an unlockable character. He has reverted back to his original Wrecking Crew design.
