'''Spin Drills''' are items that appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. [[Mario]] can pick up a Spin Drill and drill directly through planets and dirt. When standing on a spherical planet, the player can use the Drill to go through the surface to the other side by shaking the [[Wii Remote]]. The Spin Drill can also uncover hidden inside areas of planets that are otherwise unaccessible. It cannot drill through hard/metallic/un-drillable surfaces. If Mario gets hit, touches a [[Launch Star]] or goes into a [[Warp Pipe]] while holding the Spin Drill, it will disappear. It plays a major role in the [[Spin-Dig Galaxy]], but it re-appears in later galaxies such as the [[Supermassive Galaxy]], where it is used to defeat three [[Gargantua Koopa Troopa]]s, the [[Flipsville Galaxy]] during the [[Flipsville Galaxy#Flipsville's New Digs|Flipsville's New Digs]] and [[Flipsville Galaxy#Purple Coin Spin Speed Run|Purple Coin Spin Speed Run]] mission, the [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]] at the last planet of the "Exploring the Cosmic Cavern" level, and [[Bowser's Galaxy Generator]]. The Spin Drill can also be used to defeat enemies.
The '''Spin Drill''' is an item in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' that lets the user dig straight down through dirt by shaking the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]. It can be used to cross through to the opposite side of a planetoid, or to reach cavities inside. Using the Spin Drill doubles as an attack, defeating enemies standing where [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] emerges. The Spin Drill ricochets off of hard materials such as metal; [[slope]]d hard surfaces underground can change the user's trajectory.
 
Despite being held (even making the same sound when picked up as a [[Green Shell]]), the Spin Drill functions as a [[power-up]]; it cannot be dropped unless the user gets hit, touches a [[Launch Star]], or enters a [[Warp Pipe]], and it disappears in the process. Holding a Spin Drill prevents Mario or Luigi from performing certain moves such as the [[crouch]], [[Backward Somersault]], and [[Long Jump]], but they can still [[Side Somersault]] and [[Wall Jump]].
 
The Spin Drill appears in the [[Spin-Dig Galaxy]], the [[Supermassive Galaxy]] (to defeat three [[Big Koopa Troopa]]s), the [[Flipsville Galaxy]] (during the "[[Flipsville's New Digs]]" and "[[Purple Coin Spin Speed Run]]" missions), the [[Cosmic Cove Galaxy]] (at the last planetoid of the "[[Exploring the Cosmic Cavern]]" mission), and [[Bowser's Galaxy Generator]].
 
An item with a similar function, called the [[Drill Mushroom]], appears in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''.

Spin Drill

The Spin Drill is an item in Super Mario Galaxy 2 that lets the user dig straight down through dirt by shaking the Wii Remote. It can be used to cross through to the opposite side of a planetoid, or to reach cavities inside. Using the Spin Drill doubles as an attack, defeating enemies standing where Mario or Luigi emerges. The Spin Drill ricochets off of hard materials such as metal; sloped hard surfaces underground can change the user's trajectory.

Despite being held (even making the same sound when picked up as a Green Shell), the Spin Drill functions as a power-up; it cannot be dropped unless the user gets hit, touches a Launch Star, or enters a Warp Pipe, and it disappears in the process. Holding a Spin Drill prevents Mario or Luigi from performing certain moves such as the crouch, Backward Somersault, and Long Jump, but they can still Side Somersault and Wall Jump.

The Spin Drill appears in the Spin-Dig Galaxy, the Supermassive Galaxy (to defeat three Big Koopa Troopas), the Flipsville Galaxy (during the "Flipsville's New Digs" and "Purple Coin Spin Speed Run" missions), the Cosmic Cove Galaxy (at the last planetoid of the "Exploring the Cosmic Cavern" mission), and Bowser's Galaxy Generator.

An item with a similar function, called the Drill Mushroom, appears in Super Mario Bros. Wonder.
