Mega Mario

Mega Mario is one of Mario's power-ups. It first appears in the OVA Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!, but its first in-game appearance is Mario Party 3.
==Usage==
As Mega Mario, Mario grows to a gigantic size, giving him the ability to destroy most of what appears in his path. He can even crush down certain Warp Pipes. In other games, it is used to crush others and slow them down. In some games, a character becomes Mega from a Super Mushroom, if there is not the mechanic of transforming a character from their Small form to their Super form. Since New Super Mario Bros., with the introduction of the Mega Mushroom, the Mega Mario form has been consistently established as a result of obtaining a Mega Mushroom.

===Mario Party 3===
During the mini-game Toadstool Titan, a character can transform into their Mega form after finding the Super Mushroom in a Brick Block. As a Mega, they must try to run down the other players, eliminating them in the process, before the transformation ends.
===Mario Party Superstars===
In the reappearance of Toadstool Titan, the transformation is instead granted by a Mega Mushroom. The same theme from New Super Mario Bros. plays while a character is in their Mega form.

===Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door===
Mario can turn into Mega Mario under the influence of a Power Punch. Also, during Bowser's games, Bowser can transform into Mega after eating two pieces of meat.
===Super Paper Mario===
A power-up called the Mega Star debuts, and when collected, turns the player into a gigantic, 8-bit version of themselves, literally being their 8-bit sprites from the original Super Mario Bros. Much like in New Super Mario Bros. the Mega form can easily destroy blocks, pipes and crush any enemies in the way. This is useful in earning points quicker and leveling up.
==In ==
===Super Mario 64 DS===
Mario and the others can transform into a Mega form after obtaining a Mega Mushroom. One can be found in Whomp's Fortress near the sleeping Piranha Plant. After getting it, Mario is able to defeat the Piranha Plant easily and destroy Thwomps as well. On Tiny-Huge Island, Mario turns Mega again once he enters the Tiny side. Despite that they are Mega Mushrooms, they look like normal Super Mushrooms.
===New Super Mario Bros.===
Mario (or Luigi) can transform into Mega Mario/Mega Luigi after obtaining the Mega Mushroom found on levels. Mega Mario is helpful for destroying blocks and defeating enemies and is actually required to get certain Star Coins on levels. Mega Mario can also be used on multiplayer mode where he usually appears for the person in last place.
===New Super Mario Bros. 2===
After an absence from New Super Mario Bros. Wii, the form makes a reappearance here., with the reintroduction of the Mega Mushroom.
===Super Mario 3D World===
The general purpose of Mega Mario is retained from the New Super Mario Bros. sub-series, but this is the first Super Mario installment in which Mega Mario can move around a three-dimensional environment.
==In Mario Kart Wii==
The player's character can temporarily become their Mega form upon using a Mega Mushroom. When in their Mega form, the player can squish opponents and travel faster for a short period of time.
