Author Topic: What Mushroom is this? (Read 8581 times)

I searched in the Mariopedia and the Mario Wiki, and I couldn't find anything that looked like a yellow pallet swap of the Super and 1-up Mushrooms

What did these mushrooms do, and what game are they from? This is going to be bugging me all night.

I don't think they are in any games. Banpresto just makes mushrooms of all the colors of everyone's logo.

Eat it and tell us what happens.

*chomps*

Same effect that happens when you touch a fuzzy in Yoshi's Island, apparently. No wonder I've never seen these in any of the games.

Isn't there a flying Yellow ?-Up Mushroom in the cancelled items section of SMW?

Actually, there is.

If anything, Chup is probably right. Either that or it's supposed to look like a Mega Mushroom but they got it totally wrong. :P

Maybe it's based off one of the Mushrooms in the Paper Mario series. Mushrooms are red, Supers are blue, ultras are green.. I'm pretty sure there was a yellow one in one of the games, but can't recall at the moment.

It may the gold mushroom from the Mario Kart 64 and throughout the series after.

Or it's just a yellow Mario Mushroom.

Poison Mushroom (SMK, SMB2j), Golden Mushroom (MK64 and on), Volt Shroom (PM), Mega Mushroom (NSMB), Shroom Drops (PiT), Super Mushroom (MP5, 6, 7), and I'm sure there were more. All of these are or at one time were yellow with minimal gimmicks.

Bring Mariology into if you will, but I think the fact of the matter is that the manufacturer probably just didn't care about the color of the mushroom. Still looks nice, though.

That can't be. Our posts were only forty-nine minutes apart.

The mushroom also distorts one's sense of time and space. What did you think happens when you touch a Fuzzy?

BP · « **Reply #13 on:** April 17, 2009, 07:44:03 AM »

I always crouch until it's over, thinking to myself.

When is it going to stop!?!?!

I would want to out one on my (when I get one) car rear-view mirror instead of dice.

On a related note, there was a Tshirt awhile back that said "Know your shrooms", and proceeded to list all of the mushrooms in the Mario series. However, there was one red and yellow shroom labeled "Reverse" ...?

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #16 on:** April 19, 2009, 11:50:33 AM »

That was by no means all the mushrooms. I think a mailbag question or something dealt with this, but we thought it might have had something to do with Mario Party, I think.

Toad · « **Reply #17 on:** April 19, 2009, 12:56:19 PM »

The only yellow mushroom I can think of is the ones that are worth 3 points in of the Mario Party 2 games (Grab Bag and a game involving cranes [which plays similarly to Hungry Hungry Hippos] are the two that come to mind).
