[[File:DDP Hoopster.png|thumb|left|120px|Artwork from ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'', showing the original design of a Hoopster]]
In ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', Hoopsters are found in a few levels and first appear in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 1-1]]. They are usually found crawling up and down [[vine]]s, though occasionally they instead do so on trees in the background. Hoopsters speed up if the player's character (either [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], or [[Toad]]) is near or on their vines. If the character touches a Hoopster from the side or below, they get injured. The character can jump on the Hoopster to ride up the vine it is crawling on. The character can defeat a Hoopster by either throwing a [[vegetable]] at it, touching it while under the [[Super Star|Starman]] effect, or simply picking it up and throwing it.  
Hoopsters appear in ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. They are first encountered in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 1-1]]. Hoopsters are colored red with black spots, changed to yellow with red spots in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'', giving them somewhat of a resemblance to {{wp|Psyllobora vigintiduopunctata|22-spot ladybugs}}. Artwork depicts Hoopsters consistently as red with a lighter shade of magenta for their spots. Hoopsters crawl up and down [[vine]]s, and sometimes on trees in the background. Hoopsters move faster if the player character is either nearby or on the vines. A Hoopster damages the player character on contact if done from either below or the sides. A character can stand on a Hoopster without taking damage. A Hoopster is defeated if either it is hit by a [[vegetable]], touched by an [[Invincible Mario|invincible character]], or from being picked up and thrown at another enemy.


In the original version and the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' remake, Hoopsters are red with black dots, while their ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' sprites depict them as yellow with red dots. The artwork for all versions, however, depicts them as red with a lighter shade of magenta for their spots.
In the ending's cast list for the original version and the ''Super Mario All-Stars'' remake, Hoopster's name was misspelled as '''Hoopstar'''. This was corrected in {{wp|Western world|Western}} versions of ''Super Mario Advance''.

====''Super Mario All-Stars'' / ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
 
A Hoopster in the ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' remakes included in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' is what the [[Kings|king]] of [[Desert Land|Desert Hill]] turned into when [[Morton Koopa Jr.]] used his [[magic wand]] against him. Hoopsters are encountered in the [[Rich with Ropes]] level exclusively in the latter remake, sharing a sprite with the transformed king while behaving identically as in ''Super Mario Bros. 2''.
====''Super Mario Bros. 3 / Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3''====
In ''Super Mario All-Stars'' and ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', both remakes of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the [[Kings|king]] of [[Desert Land|Desert Hill]] is turned into a Hoopster with his own [[magic wand]] by [[Morton Koopa Jr.]]
 
In ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'', Hoopsters are featured as enemies in the [[e-Reader]] level, [[Rich with Ropes]], acting the same as in ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. They have the same sprite as in the main game.

Several Hoopsters appear as minions of [[Bowser|King Koopa]] in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Mario and the Beanstalk]]", being sent by King Koopa to attack [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]], [[Toad]] and their [[Goosey|goose]] ally on a giant beanstalk. These Hoopsters are defeated by Mario, who throws several Garbanzo Beans at them. Much like the game, they are red, but their spots are white instead of pink. Their legs are shown to be purple, while their feet seem to be gloved. Their eyes also are not separate, and the area around them is also purple instead of black.

Hoopsters are enemies introduced in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and Super Mario Bros. 2. They are large, spotted ladybug creatures.

History[edit]

Super Mario series[edit]

Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic / Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]

Artwork of Hoopster from the Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic manual (pg. 32).
Artwork from Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic, showing the original design of a Hoopster

Hoopsters appear in Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic and Super Mario Bros. 2. They are first encountered in World 1-1. Hoopsters are colored red with black spots, changed to yellow with red spots in Super Mario Advance, giving them somewhat of a resemblance to 22-spot ladybugs. Artwork depicts Hoopsters consistently as red with a lighter shade of magenta for their spots. Hoopsters crawl up and down vines, and sometimes on trees in the background. Hoopsters move faster if the player character is either nearby or on the vines. A Hoopster damages the player character on contact if done from either below or the sides. A character can stand on a Hoopster without taking damage. A Hoopster is defeated if either it is hit by a vegetable, touched by an invincible character, or from being picked up and thrown at another enemy.

In the ending's cast list for the original version and the Super Mario All-Stars remake, Hoopster's name was misspelled as Hoopstar. This was corrected in Western versions of Super Mario Advance.

Super Mario All-Stars / Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]

A Hoopster in the Super Mario Bros. 3 remakes included in Super Mario All-Stars and Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 is what the king of Desert Hill turned into when Morton Koopa Jr. used his magic wand against him. Hoopsters are encountered in the Rich with Ropes level exclusively in the latter remake, sharing a sprite with the transformed king while behaving identically as in Super Mario Bros. 2.

The Super Mario Bros. Super Show![edit]

“Oh no! Look! Koopa found we're missing and summoned his Hoopsters!”
—Princess Toadstool, "Mario and the Beanstalk"
Hoopster
Four Hoopsters from The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!

Several Hoopsters appear as minions of King Koopa in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Mario and the Beanstalk", being sent by King Koopa to attack Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, Toad and their goose ally on a giant beanstalk. These Hoopsters are defeated by Mario, who throws several Garbanzo Beans at them. Much like the game, they are red, but their spots are white instead of pink. Their legs are shown to be purple, while their feet seem to be gloved. Their eyes also are connected to each other, and the area around them is also purple instead of black.

Nintendo Adventure Books[edit]

When Mario first arrives in the Mushroom Kingdom in Double Trouble, he spots some Hoopsters (most of them presumably sand clones created by the GLOM) fighting for room on a hill. Later, Mario casually mentions that he hates it when the beetles ruin his picnics by stealing the food.

In Leaping Lizards, Hoopsters are used in the second International Mushroom Games event, the Beetlebowl, in which the goal is to catch and dunk Hoopsters into an opposing team's bucket. The gold trophy awarded to the winner of the tournament is also described as being based on a Hoopster.

In Pipe Down!, Ludwig von Koopa can use his giant pipe organ to summon some Hoopsters and other enemies to swarm the Mario Bros. if they attempt to attack him directly during one portion of the book. In Dinosaur Dilemma, while traveling through a forest, Yoshi spots some Hoopsters crawling around a tree trunk, and eyes them hungrily.
