Retro Soundbox
From the Super Mario Wiki, the Mario encyclopedia

Template:Item-infobox The Retro Soundbox is an accessory in Paper Mario: The Origami King. It takes on the appearance of a Famicom Disc System controller, and is not available until Mario gets to Shangri-Spa, where it is sold by a resident Snifit. When equipped, this accessory provides no gameplay alterations, but it does change some of Mario's sound effects to their counterparts from old-school Super Mario games, most notably Super Mario Bros.
The sound effects that are changed include:
- Walking (replaced with the walking sound effect from Donkey Kong)
- Jumping
- Collecting coins (the pitch is altered depending on the value of each coin)
- Hitting objects with the hammer (replaced with the noise heard when a Koopa shell hits a wall in Super Mario Bros. 3)
- Stomping on an enemy
- Entering a pipe
- Hitting a block
- Taking damage without blocking
In addition, collecting a Super Star with the Retro Soundbox equipped plays the Starman theme from Super Mario Bros.
