The '''Mega Koopa''' is a giant [[Koopa Troopa]] in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' that got a [[Mega Star]]. The Mega Koopa is an 8-bit Koopa Troopa from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' that grew to epic porportions.
In Chapter 3-1, an ordinary Koopa Troopa sees [[Mario]] coming and obtains a Mega Star to stop him (using the same animations that any other character does when they use a Mega Star). Despite its size, it can be defeated by any non-jump attack (including hitting it with a normal-sized Koopa Shell), or the player can pick up the other Mega Star in the area and run into it.


Once an ordinary Koopa Troopa, he sees [[Mario]] coming and runs for his life. He hits a block containing the Mega Star and turns huge (using the same animations that any other character would when they used a Mega Star). Mario or [[Peach]] ([[Bowser]] and [[Luigi]] will also encounter it once they join later on) needs to get giant to defeat the Koopa, but he can be defeated by an explosion of [[Boomer]] and [[Bowser]]'s firebreath. Oddly enough, the Mega Koopa is 3D instead of flat, though all "Mega" characters may have this characteristic. This Koopa is not to be confused with a [[Gargantua Koopa Troopa]].  
If the player jumps on the Mega Koopa or picks it up with [[Thoreau]], it will hide in its shell and can be kicked before it comes out. The shell will ricochet around the arena, dealing damage to the player until defeated.

The Mega Koopa is a giant Koopa Troopa in Super Paper Mario that got a Mega Star.

In Chapter 3-1, an ordinary Koopa Troopa sees Mario coming and obtains a Mega Star to stop him (using the same animations that any other character does when they use a Mega Star). Despite its size, it can be defeated by any non-jump attack (including hitting it with a normal-sized Koopa Shell), or the player can pick up the other Mega Star in the area and run into it.

If the player jumps on the Mega Koopa or picks it up with Thoreau, it will hide in its shell and can be kicked before it comes out. The shell will ricochet around the arena, dealing damage to the player until defeated.

Despite being pixelated, the Mega Koopa is actually 3D, which can be seen when flipping.

It is possible to Tattle the Mega Koopa by returning to the room with it once the chapter is beaten.

When the player receives 100 shop points, they are given a Catch Card of the Mega Koopa.
