History[edit]

Super Mario Bros. Wonder[edit]

Hoppos in Super Mario Bros. Wonder

In Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Hoppos appear in the levels Here Come the Hoppos, Cosmic Hoppos, Break Time! Pop Up, Hoppo!, Pipe-Rock Plateau Special Bounce, Bounce, Bounce, and The Final Test Wonder Gauntlet. The player can stomp on them to make them start rolling and bounce off of them. Hoppos can also roll into and get stuck in gaps. Hoppos are completely harmless to the player, though they can defeat other enemies while rolling. Giant Wonder Hoppos also appear during certain Wonder Effects.

Mario Tennis Fever[edit]

This section is referring to a subject in an upcoming or recently released game. When the game is released, or more information about this subject is found, this section may need major rewriting.
This notice should be removed after a month has passed since the game was first released.

Hoppos reappear in Mario Tennis Fever, where they are one of three Wonder Effects during the Wonder Court Match mode. Hitting a glowing one gives either player a Wonder Seed.

Profiles[edit]
