Mini Boos, originally known as Little Boos,[1] :111, 121
History[edit ]
Yoshi's Story[edit ]
In Yoshi's Story , swarms of Little Boos appear in only one level, Ghost Castle. Here, if Yoshi throws an egg at one of them, every Little Boo stops in their tracks and swoop at Yoshi. Little Boos cannot all be defeated since more will just appear from off-screen. If Yoshi eats a Heart Fruit and does a Ground Pound near them, they will turn into Lucky Fruit, much like Shy Guys do. They resemble Boo Crews from Super Mario World , except their position moving back and forth is more fixed instead of swooping from above, and they are never transparent.
Big & Little Boos also make an appearance in Jelly Pipe and are comprised of one regular-sized Boo followed by three smaller Boos, which are larger than the Little Boos in Ghost Castle.
Mario Super Sluggers[edit ]
In Mario Super Sluggers , Mini Boos appear under their current name as an item. The Mini Boo item makes the ball invisible to the player in the outfield. They are found in Wario City and are required for King Boo to join the player's team in Challenge Mode.
