== Origin ==
The Super Mushroom originates from the very first Super Mario platform game, and is the most common power-up in the game. If Mario or Luigi touch a Super Mushroom, they will grow in size, becoming Super Mario and Super Luigi respectively. This Super form makes the Mario Bros. stronger as they are now able to smash brick blocks by jumping below them, it also allows them to withstand a hit by enemies and obstacles, shrinking them back to their Small forms without losing a life. It also serves logo of the Mushroom Cup in the Mario Kart games. Its conversion and effect in SSF2 is directly based on the fact the Super Mushroom makes the Mario Bros. grow and how they are made stronger are able endure more damage.
