In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', blue coins appear as a special collectable type of coin. There are 240 blue coins total in the game: 30 in each of the seven courses, 19 in [[Delfino Plaza]], 1 in [[Delfino Airstrip]] (which counts as a Delfino Plaza coin), and 10 in [[Corona Mountain]]. By heading to the [[boathouse]] located in the west part of [[Delfino Plaza]], the player can trade ten blue coins for one [[Shine Sprite]] from the [[Raccoon]]s running the store, meaning 24 Shine Sprites total are available using this method. They do not affect the number of yellow coins that Mario has collected; however, they restore two health points when collected. The player receives the option to save their game for each blue coin they grab. | In ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', blue coins appear as a special collectable type of coin.

Blue Coins appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', having the same role and cyan color as in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. They sometimes appear in a trail behind [[Invincible Mario]] in a few levels, like [[World 7-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-3]] and in a secret area in [[World 5-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5-3]]. | Blue Coins appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', having the same role and cyan color as in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''.

Blue Coins also appear as part of certain [[Cat Shine]] missions in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury#Bowser's Fury|Bowser's Fury]]'', where they have a blue color matching that of the Blue Coins in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. They are again activated by P Switches, though this time, if the player fails to collect all of the Blue Coins within the time limit, they can activate the P Switch again to retry. Collecting every series of Blue Coins causes a Cat Shine to appear within the area. | Blue Coins also appear as part of certain [[Cat Shine]] missions in ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury#Bowser's Fury|Bowser's Fury]]'', where they have a blue color matching that of the Blue Coins in ''Super Mario Sunshine''.
