A larger version, [[Big Mr. I.]], has also appeared as a boss.
==History==
===''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''===
[[File:Mribubble.png|frame|right|A Mr. I. shooting a bubble]]
In ''Super Mario 64'', Mr. I.'s only shoot pink bubbles at [[Mario]] from their pupils. They always watch Mario when he is close, and they can be dizzied into submission if Mario [[dash|run]]s in a circle around them in either direction, rewarding Mario with a [[Blue Coin]]. The standard Mr. I.'s can be found in [[Big Boo's Haunt]], [[Lethal Lava Land]], and the [[Hazy Maze Cave]]. After being dizzy, Mr. I.'s slightly shrink before disappearing. The much larger version, Big Mr. I., is in the attic of Big Boo's Haunt.
 
In the remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the pupils of Mr. I's are oval-shaped, and said pupils are dark blue instead of black. Also, the bubbles were changed to balls of light that change color, but they are primarily turquoise.

===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party 2''====
[[File:Mr.I MP2.png|frame|right|Mr. I. from ''Mario Party 2'']]
Mr. I. appears in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' in the [[Horror Land]] board, where he offers to "warp" the player across the board for ten [[coin]]s, though his "warping" actually involves him rolling and chasing the player (and any others along the route) to the other side of the board.
 
====''Mario Party 3''====
In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', a Mr. I. (referred to as "Big Mr. I" in localization) is featured in the Battle minigame [[Eye Sore]]. The objective of the [[minigame]] is to run around the Mr. I. fifteen times until he finally disappears. As the characters run around the Mr. I., he gradually shrinks. Players should avoid bumping into the Mr. I. or one of the many [[Lava Bubble|Podoboo]]s that pop up, for they stun the player for a few valuable seconds.
 
====''Mario Party 5''====
A Mr. I appears in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' as a weapon in [[Super Duel Mode]]. It shoots a blue laser to stun enemies.


A '''Mr. I''' is one of the more spooky-oriented species in the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series. Its name is self-descriptive; they seem to be nothing more than a giant eyeball. Additionally, Mr. I is always completely immobile; as it can only rotate around in place.  
====''Mario Party Advance''====
[[File:MPA Mr I Screenshot.png|frame|left]]
{{quote|I'm actually SEEING [[Princess Peach|you]] in person!|Mr. I|Mario Party Advance}}
A Mr. I appears in ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'' as an NPC who lives in the [[horror area]] of [[Shroom City]]. He is in love with [[Princess Peach]] and his quest, [[Love That Princess!]], requires playing as Peach. As her, the player must go over to Mr. I's residence. When he sees Peach, Mr. I shows his love for her by giving her the [[Gaddget]], [[Hope Chest]]. He is also the crush of [[Flutter]]; he does not return the favor because he hardly knows her and is already in love with Peach, and he tells the player to tell her he is sorry. He is also one of the three suspects when the [[Koopa Bank]] is robbed. He states that he is not guilty, but he remembered hearing [[coin]]s jingle. The ending states that he is learning to wink for Peach.

==History==
====''Mario Party 8''====
===Super Mario series===
[[File:SuperSmashEyeBrawl.png|thumb|Two Mr. I's in the minigame Eyebrawl in ''Mario Party 8'']]
====''Super Mario 64====
In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', Mr. I's appear in the minigame [[Eyebrawl]], where instead of running around them like in the minigame [[Eye Sore]] from ''Mario Party 3'', the player must draw circles around them with the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]. As of this game, the irises and pupils of the Mr. I's take on a more oblong shape, like in ''Super Mario 64 DS''. The Mr. I's are not defeated the first time they get dizzy; instead, the Mr. I's reappear twice in progressively enlarged forms. Whoever defeats all three Mr. I forms first wins the [[minigame]]. The loser is haunted by small Mr. I's.
It first appeared in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' where the only thing it can do is shoot strange, white bubbles at [[Mario]] from its pupil (In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', this was changed to a blue burst). It always keeps its eye on Mario, and can be dizzied into submission if Mario runs in a circle around it in either clockwise or counterclockwise, rewarding Mario with a [[Blue Coin]]. The much larger version, [[Big Mr. I]], is in the attic of [[Big Boo's Haunt]].


===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party Superstars''====
[[Image:Eyebrawl.jpg|thumb|The mini-game [[Eyebrawl]], featuring Mr. Is.]]
Mr. I reappears in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', retaining its design from ''Mario Party 8''. Just like in ''Mario Party 2'', it appears on [[Horror Land]] and will warp the player to the other side of the board. Mr. I's also run the losers out after a game on Horror Land has ended. He also has his own page in the [[Data House#Encyclopedia|encyclopedia]].  
====''Mario Party 2====
{{br}}
Big Mr. I appeared in ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' in the [[Horror Land]] board, where he would offer to move the player across the board for ten [[coin]]s.


====''Mario Party 3====
===''Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour''===
In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', a few Mr. Is appeared in the battle mini-game [[Eye Sore]] where the player would have to run around them in order to win.  
In ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', the name "Mr. I." can appear on the leaderboard.


====''Mario Party 5====
===''Super Paper Mario''===
A Mr. I later appeared in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' as a weapon in Super Duel Mode. It would shoot a blue laser to stun enemies.  
In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Mr. I, written as '''Mister I''', appears in [[Merlee's Mansion]] and [[Castle Bleck]]; these Mister I's are immune to conventional attacks, and they can be defeated only by running around them repeatedly while using Mario's [[Flip]] technique. Alternatively, the player may use [[Fleep]]'s ability on them to defeat much easier. A total of three can be found in the game. In this appearance, Mister I's attack the player by shooting them with a cyan laser beam, like in ''Mario Party 5''. The game also introduces a subspecies of Mister I called [[Red I]].


====''Mario Party 8====
==Profiles and statistics==
In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', Mr. Is and Big Mr. I appear in the minigame [[Eyebrawl]], where instead of running around them like in the [[Eye Sore]] minigame, the player must draw circles around them with the [[Wii Remote]]. In this game, Mr. I took on a more oblong shape. Whoever gets Mr. I dizzy first wins the minigame.

[[File:MrI MPA.png|frame|left]]
'''Encyclopedia bio:''' "''Giant floating eyeballs. Run circles around them to stop them from seeing straight.''"
In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', a notable Mr. I (simply named [[Mr. I (Mario Party Advance)|Mr. I]]) is a resident of the [[Horror Area]] who is in love with [[Princess Peach]]. If the player meets Mr. I while playing as Peach he will give her the [[Hope Chest]] [[Gaddget]].

[[File:Mr i minecraft.jpg|thumb|100px|Mr. I as it would have appeared in ''Minecraft: Wii U Edition'']]
*In the upcoming game [[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword]], there is an obstacle/enemy which looks like a door with a red eye on it, it can be defeated in a similar manner of it looking around too many times. <ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dYgrMz_XBI YouTube video showing the red eye in ''The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword'']</ref>
*In the files for the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft|Minecraft: Wii U Edition]]'', there is a picture of an Ender Chest with a Mr. I on it. The concept for the Mr. I chests was scrapped before the final release, where they are [[Shy Guy]]-themed instead.
