First appearance Super Mario Bros. Wonder (2023)

Drill Mario[1] is the form that Mario takes when he uses a Drill Mushroom in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. While in this form, Mario can defend from attacks coming from the above, drill into breakable objects with it (resembling a more powerful version of the Ground Pound), and burrow both underground and into the ceiling.[2] However, the drill cannot protect him from fire-based enemies and objects. These abilities are similar to those of the Spin Drill in Super Mario Galaxy 2.

When a character picks up a Drill Mushroom, a drill appears on top of their head; it replaces Mario and Luigi's caps, and Peach and Daisy's crowns. Their clothes become dark gray with details keeping the original character color; Mario and Luigi's shirts turn dark gray and their overalls red and green, respectively, Peach and Daisy's dresses turn dark gray with lighter diagonal stripes, while the panniers, collar and hem stay pink and orange respectively, Yellow and Blue Toad's spots, vests and shoes turn dark gray, and their caps and pants are yellow and blue respectively, and Toadette's dress turns dark gray, with the spots and her pants gaining a pink color.

Profiles[edit]

  • Tips from the November 7, 2023 article on nintendo.com:
    • American English:
      You’ll know the drill after this quick overview. This power-up is great for players who like to sneak around undercover.
      • Tilt down the Left Stick to burrow under certain types of ground. While underground, try to position yourself directly under an enemy and then jump up—this can be an easy way to defeat them. And if you press down while in the air, you’ll be able to drill through certain things below you.
      • Try jumping into certain ceilings as well. Explore around while you’re up there—some ceilings may even take you to hidden areas.
      • The drill on top of your head might also give you extra protection from enemies that fall on you. What a pointed lesson to learn![3][4]
    • French (Canada):
      Cette transformation est idéale pour les joueurs qui aiment s’approcher secrètement.
      • Déplacez le levier gauche vers le bas pour vous frayer un chemin sous certains terrains. Une fois dans un souterrain, essayez de vous positionner directement sous un ennemi et sautez, cela peut être un moyen facile pour les vaincre. Et si vous déplacez le levier vers le bas en l’air, vous pourriez percer certains objets au-dessous de vous.
      • Essayez aussi de sauter dans certains plafonds. Explorez les alentours tant que vous y êtes, certains plafonds pourraient vous mener vers des endroits cachés.
      • a foreuse au-dessus de votre tête pourrait vous octroyer aussi une protection supplémentaire contre les ennemis qui vous tombent dessus. Quelle leçon pointue![5]
    • Portuguese (Brazil):
      Você terá as ferramentas certas para saber o que fazer depois desse resuminho rápido. Esse potenciador é ótimo para jogadores que gostam de se disfarçar por aí.
      • Incline o botão analógico da esquerda para baixo para abrir buracos em certos tipos de terreno. Enquanto estiver enterrado no chão, tente se posicionar diretamente sob um inimigo e então pule. Essa é uma forma eficiente de derrotá-los. Se você inclinar o botão analógico para baixo enquanto estiver no ar, você poderá perfurar alguns objetos que estivem abaixo de você.
      • Tente pular em alguns tetos também. Aproveite para explorar a área enquanto você estiver por lá. Alguns tetos podem te levar para lugares secretos.
      • A broca no topo da sua cabeça também pode oferecer proteção extra contra os inimigos que caírem sobre você. Uma baita ajuda, não é mesmo?[6]
    • Spanish (Latin America):
      La técnica y la precisión de los taladros son una ciencia casi impenetrable. Este potenciador es excelente para quienes desean avanzar sigilosamente.
      • Inclina la palanca izquierda para enterrarte bajo ciertos tipos de terreno. Mientras estés bajo tierra, intenta colocarte directamente debajo de uno de tus enemigos y salta; esta es una manera fácil de derrotarlos. Y si presionas la palanca hacia abajo mientras estás en el aire, podrás taladrar a través de ciertas cosas debajo de ti.
      • ¡Prueba saltar hacia el techo también. Explora a tu alrededor mientras te mueves en el techo, ¡algunos de ellos pueden servir como escondites!
      • El taladro sobre tu cabeza puede ofrecer protección adicional contra enemigos que caigan sobre ti. ¡Esta es una lección muy profunda![7]
