==''Super Mario World''== | |||
In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', the cape form's abilities are much like [[Raccoon Mario]] before it, which in fact was [[List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content|originally]] going to be in the game. It can be obtained by getting a [[Cape Feather]]. It allows Mario to fly indefinitely through levels, and attack spiked enemies by spinning it around. | |||
If the player holds down the either the {{button|snes|A}} or {{button|snes|B}} button after jumping with Caped Mario, the player can float down slowly. Also, if Mario runs at maximum speed and then presses and holds {{button|snes|A}} to spin jump, Mario will go very high, as if he was flying. If the player also falls to the ground during flight, an earthquake occurs that instantly defeats all on-screen enemies on the ground. [[Luigi]] can also get this form, but the powers remain the same as Mario's with a slightly different flight pattern in the GBA version, moving higher and slower than Mario's. | If the player holds down the either the {{button|snes|A}} or {{button|snes|B}} button after jumping with Caped Mario, the player can float down slowly.

After the cape has attached to Mario's shoes and inflated, Mario can turn around by spinning mid-flight by pressing {{button|snes|X}} if {{button|snes|Y}} is being used to fly, or vice versa. It is impossible for Mario to turn at all in the GBA version, however, because there is only one run button. | After the cape has attached to Mario's shoes and inflated, Mario can turn around by spinning mid-flight by pressing {{button|snes|X}} if {{button|snes|Y}} is being used to fly, or vice versa.

[[Baby Mario]] uses a similar form in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' where he becomes invincible. In addition to being invincible, he can also walk up walls and ceilings. This form reappears in ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]''. In both games, "[[Superstar Mario]]" can use the cape as a parachute to float downwards. | [[Baby Mario]] uses a similar form in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' where he becomes invincible.

Caped Mario appears in some [[e-Reader]] levels of ''[[Super Mario Advance 4]]'', being used primarily in [[Henshin Mario de Tsukisusume!!]]. It can also be used anywhere with the appropriate e-Reader card. Other than that, nothing has changed with Caped Mario since ''Super Mario World''. | Caped Mario appears in some [[e-Reader]] levels of ''[[Super Mario Advance 4]]'', being used primarily in [[Henshin Mario de Tsukisusume!!]].

==''Super Mario Adventures''== | |||
In the ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comic, when [[Princess Peach]] is kidnapped and taken to the Koopaling's Castle, she escapes and finds a cape in [[Wendy O. Koopa]]'s bedroom. Peach falls out the window, still holding the cape, and accidentally uses it. She flies across the moat when Mario flies right past her on a [[Bullet Bill]], which makes Peach lose control and crash in the forest. Toad later uses the cape to fly through the pipe they originally came from and assemble a rescue team. | In the ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comic, when [[Princess Peach]] is kidnapped and taken to the Koopaling's Castle, she escapes and finds a cape in [[Wendy O.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]'', Mario can use a cape to reflect projectiles or flip enemies. This cape does not enable Mario to fly, however, but it does enable him to float a very small distance when used in the air. [[Dr. Mario]] has a similar attack, the [[Super Sheet]]. | In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros.
