Buzzy Beetles are like Koopas with hard shells that can resist fire. For more info on Buzzy Beetles in the Mario series, please refer to the Super Mario Wiki.
In-Game[]
They are just like Koopas, shell and everything. The only difference is that they resist fire. They can only truly be killed by environmental hazards.
How to Use[]
Simply place the enemy from the Enemies tab in the level editor. It does not have a half variant by default.
Strategies[]
- Many of the same strategies for Goombas and Koopas will work with Beetles too.
- While they are difficult to defeat, they are not difficult to avoid.
- Since they are very hardy, they're wonderful for shell puzzles.
Trivia[]
- Their half variant was removed in SE for whatever reason.
- In Super Mario Bros, they would replace Goombas once the game was completed.
- They are the Bowser decoy for World 3.
- In Mari0 their sprite is wrong. In the original game, their shells only moved 1 pixel. The error can be traced back to the sprite sheet Maurice used for the game.
