'''Heavy Para-Beetles'''<ref>Bueno, Fernando. ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 146.</ref> are large versions of [[Para-Beetle]]s that appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''.  
'''Heavy Para-Beetles''' are large versions of [[Para-Beetle]]s that appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''.  


In ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', they appear only in [[World 7-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-6]], in ''New Super Mario Bros. U'', they appear only in [[Soda Jungle]] level [[Flight of the Para-Beetles]], along with their [[Para-Beetle|smaller versions]], and in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', they only appear in [[Para-Beetle Parade]]. They act as platforms for [[Mario]] and company to jump on to get across the level. Despite being three times the size of a normal Para-Beetle, the Heavy Para-Beetle cannot stand the weight of any character and begins to descend when stepped on, unlike their smaller versions, which ascend when stepped on. Like normal Para-Beetles, the Heavy Para-Beetles can be defeated only by being hit with [[Invincible Mario]] or being frozen with an iceball from [[Yoshi]] then [[Ground Pound|ground pounded]]. A Heavy Para-Beetle cannot hurt the player while they are standing on its shell, but its exposed head and underside can hurt the player. Like the other Para-Beetles, if the player jumps on eight without touching the ground, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s fall down to the player, or each player depending on the number of people playing.
