Snifit: Difference between revisions

'''Snifits''' are [[Shy Guy]]s<ref>[https://imgur.com/BAiG7SV?r Page 215] of 「パーフェクト版 マリオキャラクター大事典」 (''Perfect Ban Mario Character Daijiten'', or "''Perfect Edition of the Great Mario Character Encyclopedia''") states of Mūcho: 「{{hover|口|くち}}から{{hover|弾|たま}}を{{hover|放|はな}}ってくるヘイホー(P199)のパワーアップ{{hover|版|ばん}}。」 (''A power-up version of Heihō that fires bullets from its mouth.'')</ref> with an extended nozzle for a mouth on their mask, which along with the dark coloration causes it to resemble a {{wp|gas mask}}. Through their protrusion, they can fire projectiles - the most common being small, metallic bullets. Though Snifits first originated in ''[[Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic]]'', they have continued to appear as enemies in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. Snifits usually wear red robes, but they have also worn pink, gray, green, blue, black, purple, yellow, and orange.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Snifits (shown here to be affiliated with the [[8 bits]]) are less common than their Shyguy relatives and come in different colors. There is only one red Snifit, found in [[World 3-3 (Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 3-3]]; this trait is changed in many later appearances, where most Snifits are red. The red Snifit acts similar to a red Shyguy, walking off ledges it comes to but occasionally firing bullets made from nightmares.<ref name=DDP30>「{{hover|魔夢族|マムーぞく}}の{{hover|一員|いちいん}}。お{{hover|面|めん}}をつけていて、{{hover|口|くち}}から{{hover|悪夢|あくむ}}の{{hover|弾|たま}}を{{hover|撃|う}}ってくる。」 ("''A member of the Mamu Family.

Gray and green Snifits stand in place and occasionally jump while firing.
