Dry Bones: Difference between revisions

In the remake ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Dry Bones could be defeated by the [[Cape Feather]]. This item, originally from ''[[Super Mario World]]'', could only be obtained by scanning the "Cape" card with the [[e-Reader]].

Dry Bones reappeared in [[Dinosaur Land]] when Bowser took [[Princess Peach]] hostage while on vacation in the game ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Dry Bones retained its ability to rebuild itself when stomped from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. This time, however, they could be permanently defeated only with the [[cape]] or [[star]] power-ups. They could be eliminated even when they were crumbled with a swing of the cape. The Dry Bones of Dinosaur Land appeared somewhat different from the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' creatures, due to the fact that they were much taller, being about as tall as Mario, and had longer necks. Some of the Dry Bones in this game could throw bones at the player. ''Super Mario World'' was the first game that featured this variation of bone-throwing Dry Bones (this ability later appeared in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]]). In the game, Dry Bones could solely be found in the various [[Fort]]s and [[Castle]]s around the map.
