Cherry

A Cherry is a special item found in Super Mario Bros. 2. When Mario, Luigi, Peach, or Toad collected five Cherries, an invincibility-granting Starman would float upwards from the ground. Cherries appeared quite a bit in this game, and many of them could be found in every level. They also appeared in the slot machines of the same game, and when a player lined up even one of them, he or she would get points.

Cherries later appeared in the background of Super Smash Bros. Melee ' s Mushroom Kingdom 2 (a.k.a Subcon) stage. However, they were just for scenery and played no role in gameplay.
