'''Coney Island''' is an ocean-side amusement park in the southern part of [[Brooklyn]] appearing in the episode "[[Flatbush Koopa]]".

==History==
==History==
Prior to the events of "[[Flatbush Koopa]]", [[Bowser|King Koopa]] has discovered a [[Warp Pipe]] connecting the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] to [[Brooklyn]]. Wanting to get back at [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] for foiling his plans too many times, King Koopa travels to Brooklyn with his [[Koopa Troopa]]s, and starts to wreck havoc throughout the town. Believing that they have ejected King Koopa from Mushroom Kingdom, Mario and Luigi use the Warp Pipe to return home, but are soon led to Coney Island by two Koopa Troopas.

Arriving at Coney Island in a taxi, Mario and Luigi come just as King Koopa and several Koopa Troopas replace the park's entrance sign with one that reads "Koopa Island". Mario and Luigi listen as King Koopa announces his plans to take over [[New York City]], which leads the cabbie to seek assistance from the police. Before the cabbie can escape, King Koopa uses his [[Magic Wand|Koopa scepter]] to transform the cabbie and his taxi into bricks.
