Vine: Difference between revisions

'''Beanstalks''' (sometimes called '''Ivy''',<ref>Tatsumi Yamashita, ''The Official Nintendo Player's Guide'', Tokuma Shoten, 1987, ISBN 999832369X. Pages 28-29.</ref> '''Magic Vines''',{{ref needed}} '''Fine Vine''',<ref>Hodgson, David S J. ''Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3'' Prima's Official Strategy Guide. Page 38.</ref> or simply '''Vines''') are used as [[ladder]]s in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. They first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', and they remain dormant inside [[? Block]]s. When the player hits a block containing a beanstalk, a beanstalk will grow, allowing the player to use it as a ladder. Most beanstalks have [[Piranha Plant]]s as their heads while they are growing. The head disappears when the vine is fully grown.

Unlike the previous game, in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', the stalks are already grown in the level and do not need to be activated.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' they match the color scheme of the world they are located in; brown for World 2, green for Worlds 3 and 4, blue for World 5, and white for World 6. One notable feature about the ''All-Stars'' and ''Advance'' versions is that the top of Beanstalks resemble [[Piranha Plant]] heads, a trait that continued in the rest of the series.

In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', Beanstalks (also named Vines<ref>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Mario Mania'' Player's Guide. Page 41.</ref><ref>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Super NES'' Player's Guide. Pages 9, 12, 14.</ref>) return to being green, and some grow toward breakable blocks. If Mario removes the blocks the stalk can continue rising, making shortcuts available. If the player is carrying an item such as a [[P Switch]], the stalk cannot be climbed normally. The player can kick the item up, start to climb the Beanstalk, and then hold {{button|snes|Y}} again to catch the item coming down while climbing. Like [[Jumping Piranha Plant]]s, buds will change into pumpkins after the player completes [[Funky (level)|Funky]].

Beanstalks return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', serving the same function as in the other games, but having a slightly different appearance. The tips of the Beanstalk return to their original green appearance. Their stems also revert to their non-twisted appearance, and their lips are yellow this time. Also, in [[World 7 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7]], there is a Beanstalk on the World Map that leads the character to a back door from the [[World 7-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-Castle]] that takes the player right to [[Ludwig von Koopa]]. This can be accessed any time after finishing [[World 7-6 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-6]].

Vines reappear as objects in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', where some of them can be spawned by watering flowers as [[Elephant Mario]].<ref>Nintendo of America (August 31, 2023). [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0m_uNaSres Super Mario Bros. Wonder Direct 8.31.2023]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved September 2, 2023.</ref> The Grappling Vine badge also grants the player who equipped it the ability to shoot a Vine that latches onto walls.

A beanstalk appears in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[Mario and the Beanstalk]]", which in itself is a spoof of ''[[Wikipedia: Jack and the Beanstalk|Jack and the Beanstalk]]''. The premise of the episode involves Mario and Luigi foolishly trading [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]'s [[Royal Cow]] for garbanzo beans, which the Princess rejects by sneezing them out of Mario's hand and into the soil, due to her allergy. The beans grows into a huge beanstalk overnight, which leads Mario's group up into the clouds, where they discover an enlarged [[Bowser|King Koopa]]'s castle.

A beanstalk,<ref>Miller, Kent, and Terry Munson. ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide. Page 122.</ref> also referred to as a '''Flower''',<ref>Williams, Drew. ''Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3'' Player's Guide. Page 33.</ref> '''sunflower'''<ref>Williams, Drew. ''Yoshi's Island DS'' Player's Guide. Page 54.</ref> or '''giant sunflower''',<ref>Black, Fletcher. ''Yoshi's Island DS'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Pages 22, 28, 48, 60, 133, 233.</ref> is an object in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'', and ''[[Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World]]''. Occasionally, when popping a [[Winged Cloud]], [[Yoshi]] may uncover one of the seeds of these large, cheery plants. It then grows upwards at a very fast rate and produces ledge-like leaves while doing so. Unlike in other games, Yoshi must hop on its leaves instead of climbing it like a ladder. In ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', different beanstalks appear in [[Bouncy Beanstalk Walk]].

{{quote2|Wow! Did you see that? It's a magical beanstalk! Hit the block once more to climb it.|In-game text|''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''}}

In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', two beanstalks are seen. One is seen at the end of [[Bean Valley]], and another is obtained after a side quest in [[Rose Town]] which leads to some secret items like the [[Lazy Shell]]s. The end of Bean Valley also features floating, multi-colored spiral vines that function similar.

The [[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]] later introduced {{classic-link|GBA|Sky Garden}} to ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', and the Beanstalks from that course reappear as well.
