Hint Toad is once again part of the Toad Brigade in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. He, along with the other Toads in the brigade, arrives on [[Starship Mario]] after Mario clears [[Spin-Dig Galaxy]]. Once again, he is the smartest, and often gives Mario hints on how to defeat [[Bowser]]. His speech changes every time Mario clears a world.

In the [[Boulder Bowl Galaxy]], Hint Toad will be picking at the ground with a pickaxe. He says he lost his glasses, but upon closer examination using the first-person view, he is actually hitting his glasses with his pick.
 
After giving the [[Banktoad]] 1,000 Star Bits, he will wear a pair of glasses similar to Hint Toad's pair because he wants to look smart.

Hint Toad once again  appears in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' as a supporting character, being named as such for the first time. He appears alongside [[Uncle amiibo]] to help Mario locate [[Power Moon]]s scattered in every kingdom. Unlike Uncle amiibo, he charges Mario 50 yellow coins for every Power Moon location. He only appears on the [[Dark Side]] after the objective [[Arrival at Rabbit Ridge!]] is completed and does not appear at all on the [[Darker Side]], but does appear in every other kingdom. He has the same appearance as in ''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker'', but now dons a [[Crazy Cap#Explorer Hat|safari hat]]. The brochure that Hint Toad holds has a map of [[Bob-omb Battlefield]] from ''[[Super Mario 64]]''.<ref>https://twitter.com/UndeadBatteries/status/926991088933629952</ref>
