Coin: Difference between revisions

Coins reappear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', once again as common items to be obtained. They can once again be found in blocks and floating in the air, and grant Mario or Luigi an extra life when 100 of them are collected. Coins can also be obtained in the flip-the-card minigames. [[P-Switch]]es, introduced in this game, can turn [[Brick Blocks]] into coins, and vice versa; some P-Switches also cause a new type of coin, [[Blue Coin]]s, to appear. Coins are also found in the 2-Player battle mode. If a player collects 5 coins, they win. In the player's status panel at the bottom of the screen, a dollar sign ($) is used to represent coins. This was changed to a the coin sprite from ''[[Super Mario Land]]'' in the remakes.

In the [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|Game Boy Advance remake]], there is an [[Orange Switch]] e-Reader card that, when activated, turns enemies into moving coins if hit by fireballs, resembling the effect in ''Super Mario World'' and its Game Boy Advance remake. Also, thrown objects (like shells or [[Ice Block]]s) can pick up coins in this version, being worth double if obtained this way.
