History Super Mario Bros. 2 If Mario and his friends first pull up four large vegetables in Super Mario Bros. 2, pulling up what would be a fifth one will instead reveal a Stop Watch. It will appear for a second and then freeze everything in the level for a few seconds. This gives a window of opportunity for Mario and his friends to avoid or defeat enemies and collect Small Hearts. However, touching the frozen enemies still hurts the player. Paper Mario series Stop Watch The Thousand-Year Door Description Temporarily immobilizes all enemies.­ Super Paper Mario Description A wacky watch that stops enemies in their tracks. Paper Mario The Stop Watch later appears as an item in Paper Mario. When Mario or his partners use it, it will immobilize enemies for a few turns (assuming it is successful).

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door It reappears in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door as the Stopwatch.

Super Paper Mario The Stop Watch also appears as an uncommon item in Super Paper Mario, where it immobilizes all enemies. Donkey Kong Land III Related items known as Watches (or Clocks) appear in Donkey Kong Land III. Watches, however, cannot be used during gameplay. They act primarily as collectibles which count toward a final game score of 100%, but also act to unlock various time trial challenges after King K. Rool is defeated for the second and final time. These time trials are merely select levels from the game which are timed, unlike in regular gameplay. Finishing six of the twelve total challenges, on top of collecting all major items in the regular levels, will lead to a perfect game score. Nintendo Comics System In the Nintendo Comics System story Cloud Nine, it appears as an animate object who acts as the Mushroom King's alarm clock, dodging the grumpy King's attempts to swat him and fearfully running to Princess Toadstool for safety. Mario & Luigi: Dream Team The Stop Watch appears again in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team as a badge effect that occurs when mixing the Miracle Badge with the Gold Badge.
