Rupee

Rupees are small gems used as currency throughout The Legend of Zelda series, especially in the Hyrule region. They make their debut appearance in The Legend of Zelda. They are equivalent to the coins in the Mario franchise.

Super Mario-kun
Rupees appear in Volume 4 of the Super Mario-kun manga. After being sent to The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Mario finds some Rupees while chopping bushes to find a Warp Zone back to Super Mario World.

Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
In Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, Bazaar mentions that Link arrived at his General Store and exchanged 500 Rupees for information. This dialogue is not included in the Game Boy Advance version.

Wario Land II
In Wario Land II, one of the hidden treasures that Wario collects appears to be a Rupee, specifically a purple one in the Game Boy Color version.

Super Paper Mario
In Super Paper Mario, a currency called Rubees appear, which resemble and may be named after Rupees.

Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy features the Rolling Gizmo Galaxy, in which a hidden formation of Star Bits in the shape of a Rupee can be seen.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is a sticker of a green Rupee depicting its The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess artwork.

Mario Kart 8 / Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Rupees appear in the Hyrule Circuit course featured in the first Mario Kart 8 DLC pack, The Legend of Zelda × Mario Kart 8, which returns in the base game of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. They replace coins from other courses, being both scattered throughout the course and obtainable from Item Boxes. They function identically to coins, giving a greater speed boost to players the more of them they have, but they play a different sound effect when collected. They are the only coin replacements in the game that do not actually take the appearance of coins like Bells and cash.
