Cursed Mini Mario

Cursed Mini Mario is a possessed version of Mini Mario that appears in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars. It appears to be under the control of a small robotic monkey that attaches to its head.

History
'Bold text'===Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars=== Cursed Mini Marios are activated without input from the player and start marching onward, interacting with other elements the same way a normal Mini would. However, they are harmful to other Minis and can destroy them on contact, resulting in a Game Over if all of the minis are destroyed completely. They are also impervious to enemies, long-distance falls, and Spike Trap spikes, on which they are able to walk normally. As shown in Level B-14 Thwomps come to a stop when they hit a Cursed Mini Mario. The only way to turn a Cursed Mini Mario back to normal is to attack it with a Hammer, Cannon Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars Cannon launch, or a slide, after which the Minis can advance to the Goal Door (Mario vs. Donkey Kong series) door as usual so the level will be complete.
