After the player completes the [[Special Zone]], or find all exits in ''[[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2]]'', like with all Koopa Troopas and Koopa Paratroopas, the yellow variants become Mask Koopas, with their respective shells becoming yellow-capped masks that vaguely resemble Mario. Yellow Mask Koopas also replace the regular green Koopa Troopas (not including green [[Climbing Koopa]]s), while the yellow masks replace the stand-alone Green Shells.

In ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', when yellow-shelled [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s are defeated, they retreat in their shell and disappear.

Yellow Shells also appear in ''[[Mario's Time Machine]]'' for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]], replacing the common green-shelled Koopa Troopas. Unlike in ''Super Mario World'', jumping on one does not release the Koopa out of its shell and instead causes it to retreat to their shells, and they can only be kicked to launch, knocking over all enemies in its way. [[Bodyslam Koopa]]s also wear Yellow Shells, but jumping on them instantly defeats them.

Getting hit by the shell simply stuns Mario temporarily, rather than damaging him.

====''Paper Mario''====
In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Yellow Ninjakoopa retreats into his Yellow Shell when he is stacked with the other [[Koopa Bros.]] to use the whirling tower attack or when he [[Shell Toss]]es at Mario separately.
====''Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door''====
In the [[Glitz Pit]] (Chapter 3) of ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', the [[KP Koopas]], which consists of a [[KP Paratroopa]] and two [[KP Koopa]]s, including the team's leader, [[KP Pete]], use their Yellow Shells to attack Mario and his [[partner]]s during battle.

Yellow Shells (simply referred to as '''Koopa Shells'''<ref>''Super Mario Advance'' manual, page 49</ref>) appear in the [[Game Boy Advance]] version of ''[[Mario Bros. (game)|Mario Bros.]]'' included with the [[Super Mario Advance (series)|''Super Mario Advance'' series]] and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They are a random item a player can find from within a [[Bin|garbage can]]. Once they are thrown, they slide across the ground, damaging any player or defeating any enemy it touches. They can also slide into the bottom [[Warp Pipe]]s and will launch from the other Warp Pipe above. Standalone Yellow Shells are sometimes randomly launched from the Warp Pipes above.

Yellow Shells make their ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' debut in the ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'' [[minigame]] [[Shell Stack]]. They appear after a few Green Shells have been launched; once the small [[Pipe Cannon]]s turn yellow, one of them from left or right shoots out a Yellow Shell, which is slightly faster than the Green Shell.
