Beetle Mania

Beetle Mania is a secret mini-game found in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars; it can be purchased at the Mushroom Kingdom inn for a total of five-hundred coins from a blue Toad. After speaking to him enough times, he will ask if Mario would like to buy it. Saying "yes" will add "game" to the 'X' menu. The gameplay is simple: By pressing the buttons A, B or Y, a Beetle shoots stars at red Koopa shells that fall over the insect. Hitting one will cause red stars to pop out. These can both hurt the beetle or activate other shells. The first time Mario plays the game, a Toad will run onto the screen asking the player not to use a Turbo Controller to play the game.

The background of the game changes depending on which character is in the middle slot of Mario's Party.
