From ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' onwards, it can be used to avoid the [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]]; however, it is difficult to obtain a Mushroom in first place. The Mushroom artwork from ''Mario Kart Wii'' is reused from the [[Super Mushroom]] artwork for ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''

In ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', the Mushroom is slightly more powerful than it is in other games. It also receives a new visual effect; the boost will create a line of flames between the road and the wheels, and it causes the engine to rev louder and higher. When obtained as a set of three, they now revolve around the vehicle, in the same way as the [[Triple Shells]], and other racers that drive into them will feel their effect immediately without causing one to disappear. Mushrooms also have a sponsor named after them, [[Mushroom Piston]].
