Mini Mushroom



The Mini Mushroom is a variety of Mushrooms found in the Mushroom Kingdom. Whoever uses it will shrink greatly in size, becoming as tiny as a mouse and sneak into smaller areas.

The Mini Mushroom debuted in Mario Party 4 as a pink capped mushroom with what appears to be a paciefier that reduced the Dice Block from 1-10 to 1-5 and allowed a person under its effects to enter Gates and play Mini Mini-games. Additionally, it had an alternate form called Super Mini Mushroom, colored entirely translucent pink, that did the same, but with two Dice Blocks.

They got a short reappearance in Mario Pinball Land, where they could let Mario go into small places and get extra Power Stars. They usually cost ten coins and took their Mario Party 4 look.

They reappeared in New Super Mario Bros., where they were a shade of blue, and they shrunk Mario's and Luigi's size greatly and yet again gave them the ability to enter tiny Warp Pipes. They also gained the abilities to perform Floaty Jumps and run across water, thanks to their very light weight. Unfortunately, one hit will cause a Mario brother to lose a life. If Mario or Luigi (in Mini form) is able to defeat the Mummipokey, then he will gain access to World 4. If he beats Petey Piranha in Mini form, he can go to World 7.

They appear again in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. They are just like the mini mushrooms from the original New Super Mario Bros., but it seems that the music played in the level while mini is faster and more high pitched.

Trivia

 * A different kind of mushroom, called a Poison Mushroom, works similar to the mini-mushroom. However, in some games, it will take out the player if he/she is small.
