MIPS

MIPS is a rabbit found in the basement of Peach's Castle during the events of Super Mario 64. When Mario approaches the bunny, MIPS will run away. After Mario catches MIPS, the rabbit gives him a Power Star. MIPS appears in the basement a second time after Mario defeats Bowser.

Apparently, MIPS is late for an important appointment.

MIPS gets his name from the measure of a computerâ€™s processor speed, which is measured in Millions of Instructions Per Second.
