([https://archive.ph/OiUEv Archived] August 12, 2022 23:38:23 UTC via archive.today.</ref>) are enemies that appear in the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]]. They are living money purses that have their zippers undone, with two glowing yellow eyes inside, and have stubby yellow-orange feet. Subsequent games in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] replace Moneybags with [[Coin Coffer]]s, beginning with ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''.
 ==History==
 ===''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''===
 In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', two Money Bags appear in [[Snowman's Land]]. At first, they take the form of a regular, usually noticeably misplaced, [[coin]], but when [[Mario]] gets near one, it transforms into a purse-shaped creature that hops around. After four hops, it flattens up and then walks on the ground for a few seconds. Defeating one earns the player five coins.
-In the [[Super Mario 64 DS|Nintendo DS version]], Moneybags return, having received a slight redesign, and one also appears in the minigames [[Coincentration]] and [[Intense Coincentration]], where [[Wario]] punches one upward, causing several coins to fall.

 ===''New Super Mario Bros.''===
-In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Moneybags are found only in [[World 5-2 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5-2]] and [[World 6-3 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 6-3]]. Like in ''Super Mario 64'', a Moneybags appears as an out-of-place coin at first, before showing its true appearance when Mario approaches. In order to defeat one, the player must hit it with six [[fireball]]s, [[stomp]] it three times, or use either a [[Mega Mushroom]] or a [[shell|Koopa Shell]]. For the first two methods, it gives one coin for each hit, and a [[1-Up Mushroom]] upon the last, at which point it is defeated. Moneybags usually appear in areas with several [[pit]]s, making it harder to chase the creatures by these means. Additionally, a Moneybags returns in Coincentration, more graphically enhanced than before.
