In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Snifits (shown here to be affiliated with the [[8 bits]]) are less common than their Shyguy relatives and come in different colors. There is only one red Snifit, found in [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-3]]; this trait is changed in many later appearances, where most Snifits are red. The red Snifit acts similar to a red Shyguy, walking off ledges it comes to but occasionally firing bullets made from nightmares.<ref name=DDP30>「{{hover|魔夢族|マムーぞく}}の{{hover|一員|いちいん}}。お{{hover|面|めん}}をつけていて、{{hover|口|くち}}から{{hover|悪夢|あくむ}}の{{hover|弾|たま}}を{{hover|撃|う}}ってくる。」 ("''A member of the Mamu Family.

Gray and green Snifits stand in place and occasionally jump while firing. | ||

The identical behavior of the gray and green Snifits is due to the fact that they are actually the same coded object, with the color variation being due to their palette having different colors assigned to it in different areas to affect other objects. This in turn is due to the NES's technology only allowing four palettes at a time on that graphic layer, with the fourth being the player character's. Another side effect of the NES's graphic technology is the Snifits' hoods appearing to lack part of their outline in the back in one frame and appearing non-pointed in the other, as the mouthpiece takes up extra space in the 16x16 pixel tiles. | The identical behavior of the gray and green Snifits is due to the fact that they are actually the same coded object, with the color variation being due to their palette having different colors assigned to it in different areas to affect other objects.
