In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Star Pieces are scattered throughout the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], and collected by characters and used for trading too. Characters also give them to each other as thank-you gifts, usually for returning or giving an item wanted. [[Goombaria]] mentions that they are good-looking ("Look at the pretty glitter!"), which implies that characters collect them because they look good. [[Kolorado]] also mentions that when he found a Star Piece when searching [[Dry Dry Ruins (Paper Mario)|Dry Dry Ruins]] he immediately picked it up. [[Mario]] can also collect them, but the only practical use in the game is to trade [[badge]]s from [[Merlow]]. There are just enough collectible Star Pieces to buy all the badges Merlow offers. The player can check the numbers of Star Pieces collected so far on a board in [[Mario Bros.' House|Mario's House]], and the number in possession on the pause menu.

In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', there are 100 collectible Star Pieces, among which 98 are overworld and two are owned by characters. Some of overworld ones are underground and require [[Super Boots]] to get. The difference is that in the sequel, the underground panels can no longer be flipped with the [[Ultra Hammer]]. The last two are owned by [[Chef Shimi]] and the [[Excess Express waitress]], respectively, and will be given to Mario for fulfilling the corresponding requests. [[Mario]] can still use Star Pieces to trade for [[badge]]s. All 100 Star Pieces are needed to get all of Dazzle's badges. [[Merluvlee]] can predict the locations of the Star Pieces for five coins, and [[Ms. Mowz]] can detect them for Mario using her field ability (by pressing {{button|gcn|x}}).
