Prickly Goombas are Goombas that hide inside spiked chestnut shells. Prickly Goombas first appear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, where they are encountered only in World 9-7. The players will sustain damage if they jump on their spiked shells. Prickly Goombas will remain stationary until their shells are burned open with a single fireball, thus reverting them to regular Goombas. They can also be frozen by an Ice Ball. Prickly Goombas also appear in New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U, and their Nintendo Switch version, behaving identically, though Yoshi can now walk on them. In New Super Mario Bros. U, Prickly Goombas appear only in Prickly Goombas!, while New Super Luigi U only features them in Fire and Ice.

Notes

  • Prickly Goombas are quite similar to Pestnuts from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, in that they are both chestnut-themed enemies that hold a certain enemy within them (Goombas and Beanies, respectively) that act their usual manner when released.
