Dragon Coin: Difference between revisions

For the [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|Game Boy Advance version]], Dragon Coins were given a slightly bigger role. They now appear in levels that did not originally have them, and the number of Dragon Coins acquired is recorded on a menu. If the player collects them all, a cutscene plays, showing all of the collected Dragon Coins falling from the sky and being stacked together; afterwards, a giant Dragon Coin appears, and [[Yoshi]] eats it and lays an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]], which hatches into a giant coin with [[Princess Peach]]'s face, resulting in all of the Dragon Coins in the game having Peach's face imprinted on them instead of Yoshi's. Chocolate Secret now has the standard set of five Dragon Coins. In the ''[[Nintendo Power#Nintendo Power Advance|Nintendo Power Advance]]'' guide for ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2'', the symbol for the Dragon Coins denoting where they are located in a level is drawn with a three-tined fork instead of Yoshi's or Peach's likeness.<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Power Advance'' Volume 4|page=18|date=Winter 2002|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us}}</ref>

The Dragon Coin's collection sound effect was reused for the [[Advance Coin]]s in ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', the [[Star Coin]]s in the [[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|''New Super Mario Bros.'' games]], and the [[color coin]]s in ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', the sound effect is internally labeled "<tt>SE_OBJ_GET_DRAGON_COIN</tt>."<ref>{{cite|author=TCRF|title=[[tcrf:New Super Mario Bros.#Sound Effects|New Super Mario Bros.#Sound Effects]]|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=February 18, 2019}}</ref>

Dragon Coins were [[List of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island pre-release and unused content|originally]] going to appear in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', where they were going to be a currency along with regular coins for some of the [[Bonus Challenge]]s.<ref>{{cite|title=[[tcrf:Proto:Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island/ys romX 0/Bonus Challenges|Proto:Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island/ys romX 0/Bonus Challenges]]|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=October 30, 2021}}</ref> They were possibly replaced by [[Smiley Flower|flower]]s. The sprite for them is not present in the [[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3|Game Boy Advance port]] at all.
