Spike: Difference between revisions

Normal Spikes reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', along with [[Stone Spike]]s, a blue variety that uses spiked balls made of stone thrown directly downwards from the ledges on which they stand. This game marks the first appearance of their modern design, which would go on to be re-used in future games. Spikes can be defeated by a simple jump to the head, however, unlike in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', if the Spike is holding a spiked ball it will damage the player. They can also be defeated by [[fireball]]s, [[barrel]]s, being frozen via the [[Ice Flower]] or the [[Penguin Suit]] power-ups, and sliding into them as Penguin Mario. In this game, Spikes stay at one spot instead of walking around, although they can turn directions. The green variation appears only in [[World 2-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 2-2]]. Unlike regular spiked balls, the Spike's spiked balls cannot break blocks and fall off the screen when in contact with a wall.
