Template:Item-infobox The P-Wing is a special item that first appears in Super Mario Bros. 3. The "P" stands for Paratroopa or Patapata (the Japanese name for that enemy). Unused data in Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 shows that the P-Wing could have been in a Question Block like other power-ups such as the Super Leaf and Fire Flower.

History

Super Mario series

Super Mario Bros. Special

The Wing from Super Mario Bros. Special.

A predecessor to the P-Wing can be found in Super Mario Bros. Special. It was simply known as the Wing. When Mario collects it, he will be able to fly in the sky by "swimming" through the air, gaining aquatic properties. However, the power up was only temporary, and if Mario wasn't careful, he'd end up falling somewhere undesirable.

Super Mario Bros. 3

[[FGestapos like Yoshi876 do nothing but kill users intentionally, so he should be condemned to death!

Super Mario 3D Land

Mario and a P-Wing.

In the Nintendo 3DS game Super Mario 3D Land, the P-Wing functions differently. If Mario loses 10 lives in a level, an Assist Block with P-Wings printed on it will appear. When Mario hits this block, a P-Wing will pop out. If he touches the P-Wing, it will go into storage to use later. Tapping it will warp him to the end of the course. Some Mystery Boxes also hold P-Wings in them. However, Luigi is only able to earn the P-Wing if the player has skipped a level in a normal world (for example, by using a Warp Zone) or through Mystery Boxes. The same happens to Mario after the level is already conquered.

New Super Mario Bros. 2

The P-Wing is seen as an icon the P-Meter in New Super Mario Bros. 2, replacing the "P" icon in the meter's original appearance in Super Mario Bros. 3. Both the P-Meter and the P-Wing appears when Mario or Luigi gets a Super Leaf (i.e. Turns into Raccoon Mario/Fox Luigi).

New Super Mario Bros. U

Neither the P-Wing nor the P-Meter appear in New Super Mario Bros. U, but a P-Acorn (a Super Acorn with a P-Mark) appears. It is obtained from the Nabbit enemy, and it lets Mario, Luigi, Yellow Toad and Blue Toad fly for the whole level.

Mario Kart series

Mario Kart: Double Dash!!

The P-Wing makes a cameo appearance in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!. It appears on the side of some trucks in Mushroom Bridge and Mushroom City. Additionally, the license plate of the truck that has the P-Wing on it says "SMB3", a common abbreviation of Super Mario Bros. 3.

The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3

The only appearance of P-Wings in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 was in the episode "Up, Up, and a Koopa", where, instead of being used by Mario or Luigi, they are used by Toad and Princess Toadstool.
