The '''Propeller Mushroom''' (also known as the '''Propellerhead'''<ref>Bueno, Fernando. ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 9.</ref> or '''Propeller Suit'''<ref>Stratton, Steve. ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 23.</ref><ref>https://media.nintendo.com/mariobroswii/power-ups/</ref>) is an item introduced in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. The Propeller Mushroom is an orange-capped [[mushroom]] with two light-yellow spots and a yellow propeller atop the cap. Obtaining a Propeller Mushroom turns the player into [[Propeller Mario|their Propeller form]], giving them a character-colored flight suit with a large helmet-like cap that has a propeller sticking out of it and the player's emblem emblazoned on its sides. If left alone, the Propeller Mushroom eventually flies out of the stage.

The '''Propeller Mushroom''' ('''Propellerhead''' in the ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' Prima Guide, then known as '''Propeller Suit''' in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' Prima Guide)<ref>[http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=100414 ''Famitsu'' magazine scan]</ref> is an [[item]] which was introduced to the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. As the name implies, the item is used to let the player fly through the air, spinning like a propeller until gently floating to the ground. Descent can be delayed if the player shakes the [[Wii Remote]] while falling. If left stationary, the Propeller Mushroom will fly out of the stage. In order to activate the propeller, the player must shake the Wii Remote. Propeller flight is not continuous, but after the player lands, they will be able to take flight again. The Propeller Mushrooms's appearance is an orange-capped [[Mushroom]] with two light-yellow spots and a yellow propeller atop the cap. Obtaining a Propeller Mushroom turns the player into [[Propeller Mario|their Propeller form]], adding a jumpsuit (in color of the character) with a large helmet-like cap that has a propeller sticking out of it and the player's emblem emblazoned on its sides. It debuts in [[World 1 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 1-1]].


A player can grab onto another user who currently has the Propeller Mushroom. To do this move, the player must hold the 1 button and shake the Wii Remote. Then the player that is holding on to the other player can shake the Wii Remote again, making both of them fly. If the player shakes the Wii Remote when someone else is holding on, the player that was holding on will fall off. If the player gets swallowed by a [[Yoshi]], they can shake the Wii Remote and fly out of the Yoshi's mouth.  
The item was originally a [[List of New Super Mario Bros. Wii pre-release and unused content|Propeller Suit]], acting much like a [[P-Wing]] suit with a propeller.

The Propeller Mushroom (also known as the Propellerhead[1] or Propeller Suit[2][3]) is an item introduced in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. The Propeller Mushroom is an orange-capped mushroom with two light-yellow spots and a yellow propeller atop the cap. Obtaining a Propeller Mushroom turns the player into their Propeller form, giving them a character-colored flight suit with a large helmet-like cap that has a propeller sticking out of it and the player's emblem emblazoned on its sides. If left alone, the Propeller Mushroom eventually flies out of the stage.

The item was originally a Propeller Suit, acting much like a P-Wing suit with a propeller.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]

Propeller.gif

The Propeller Mushroom debuts in World 1-1, and it is one of the main powerups of the game, alongside the Penguin Suit. When collected, the power-up sound has an additional "spin" effect. As the name implies, the Propeller Mushroom lets the player fly through the air, spinning like a propeller, by shaking the Wii Remote; afterward, they gently float to the ground, and their descent can be further slowed if the player shakes the Wii Remote while falling. Holding the down button makes the player spin downward like a drill for an attack with the same effects as a Ground Pound. Propeller flight is not continuous, but after the player lands, they are able to take flight again.

A player can grab onto another player who has the Propeller Mushroom by holding One Button and shaking the Wii Remote; the player with the Propeller Mushroom can then shake the Wii Remote to launch them both into the air. If the player gets swallowed by a Yoshi, they can shake the Wii Remote and fly out of the Yoshi's mouth.

Propeller Blocks work in the same way, though they need to be held, and can be used regardless of the holder's form.

Super Mario 3D Land / Super Mario 3D World[edit]

Though the Propeller Mushroom is absent in Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World, Propeller Boxes appear, working like Propeller Blocks.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Luigi U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]

This item reappears in New Super Mario Bros. U acting in a similar manner to the Wii version, but the object can only be found in a Toad House from Superstar Road, and the player does not spin around as fast when flying compared to the previous game. In New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe the Propeller Mushroom acts the same, but can now be obtained from Enemy Courses.

In New Super Luigi U, the Propeller Mushrooms can once again be found in the Superstar Road Toad Houses, as well as from Enemy Courses.

Super Mario Maker / Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS / Super Mario Maker 2[edit]

Propeller Mushrooms reappear in Super Mario Maker, Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS and Super Mario Maker 2, exclusive to the New Super Mario Bros. U style. In the nighttime ground theme in Super Mario Maker 2, Propeller Mushrooms fly in random directions a few times before flying away.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe[edit]

In Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, a fictional airline appears called Propeller Toad Transport, whose logo depicts a Toad utilizing a Propeller Mushroom. One of the cups added in the Booster Course Pass, the Propeller Cup, is represented by a Propeller Mushroom, making it one of three mushrooms used to represent a cup in the DLC, alongside the Golden Dash Mushroom and the Rock Mushroom.
