It is [[Mario]]'s signature power-up in ''Super Mario 64'', being shown on the game's box art and a majority of its [[List of merchandise|merchandise]]. When wearing a Wing Cap, Mario becomes [[Wing Mario]] and gains the ability to fly and slow his falls (by holding {{button|n64|A}}), like with the [[Super Leaf]] and [[Cape Feather]] from previous games. Mario can begin flying by performing a [[Triple Jump]] (which can be done in place in that form) or by getting shot from a [[cannon]]. The item can only be obtained from a red [[! Block]], which will become solid upon hitting the red [[! Switch]] in the [[Tower of the Wing Cap]] course. The wings last for 60 seconds before wearing off. | The '''Wing Cap''', or '''Winged Cap'''<ref>''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #44, page 28.</ref><ref>Bath, Prima.

It is not possible for [[Yoshi]], [[Luigi]], or [[Wario]] to acquire wings in the single-player mode of the game. However, the feathers are located in two of the stages in the game's [[Super Mario 64 DS#VS Mode|multiplayer mode]]: [[Sunshine Isles]] and [[Battle Fort]]. They add wings to their cap regardless of who picks them up. In the case of Yoshi, he [[Winged Yoshi|grows wings on his back]]. | ||
