Spinies appear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Spinies are once again thrown by Lakitus, just like in ''Super Mario Bros.'' and can be defeated by [[Fire Mario]], [[Hammer Mario]], and a [[Super Star|Starman]]. Like [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, Spinies can also hang from the ceiling, dropping down when Mario is close enough and sliding on their shells. Using [[Raccoon Mario|Raccoon]] or [[Tanooki Mario]]'s tail, they can be flipped onto their back and picked up and [[Shell Toss|thrown]] like a regular [[Koopa Shell]]. Unlike Koopa or Buzzy Beetle shells, Mario can not safely jump on a [[Spiny Shell (red)|Spiny Shell]] despite its business end being upside down (however, Mario can do this in the Game Boy Advance remake).

A green, unhatched variant of Spiny Egg is introduced in this game. It can move around and chase the player until it falls off a cliff or is hit by a Shell, Fireball, [[Hammer]], or Starman. This is the only game that this kind of Spiny Egg appears in.

Spinies also appear in the ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' Battle Mode, where they replace [[Shellcreeper]]s from the original game. If a Spiny is flipped over and left alone, it will turn blue and move faster. In the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] version available in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'', they appear in the expanded Battle Game.
