Moneybags also made reappearances in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' in two levels. Here, in order to defeat the evasive Moneybag it's needed to hit with six [[Fireballs]], [[stomp]]ing over it six times or using a [[Mega Mushroom]] or a [[Koopa Shell]]. For the first two ways, it would give one coin for each hit, and a [[1-Up Mushroom]] upon the last, at which it would be defeated. They usually appear in areas with several [[pit]]s, making it harder to chase the creature by these means. The mini-game Coincentration also appears in this game, with more 3D-rendered graphics.
