A Spinning Heart (also referred to simply as a heart)[1] is a supportive object seen in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. Spinning Hearts are translucent red hearts that slowly revolve on the ground. When Mario runs through one, the Spinning Heart quickly replenishes his Power Meter. The heart spins proportionally to the speed Mario runs through it, gradually slowing back to normal. While the heart is spinning faster than usual, Mario heals one sector each full turn the heart makes.[2] In Super Mario 64 DS, Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario can also use a Spinning Heart to recover health. In Super Mario 64, the Spinning Heart is just a translucent sprite rendered in the 3D scene with collision data. In Super Mario 64 DS, it is an opaque 3D model.
A total of 15 Spinning Hearts appears in both games, with one in Tick Tock Clock and the one in Goomboss Battle being exclusive to Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS, respectively. Spinning Hearts are often found in areas with greater risk of damage or before boss battles. The following Spinning Hearts appear in the following locations:
