In ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3'', Cactuar is unlocked by first unlocking [[Glare Desert]], the final court in Star Cup. Then the player must play the court in exhibition mode. A green lump in the ground will eventually appear. The player has to dribble the ball over the bump a few times, and Cactuar will pop out of the sand and run away. Afterwards, the player has to win the exhibition match, and when this is done, Cactuar is unlocked as a playable character.
==History==
===''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''===
A Cactuar made its first crossover appearance with the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise in the game ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]'' as a playable character. Other ''Final Fantasy'' characters in ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3'' are [[Ninja (character)|Ninja]], [[Black Mage]], [[White Mage]], and [[Moogle]]. Here, Cactuar is unlocked by first unlocking [[Glare Desert]], the final court in Star Cup. Then the player must play the court in exhibition mode. A green lump in the ground will eventually appear. The player has to dribble the ball over the bump a few times, and Cactuar will pop out of the sand and run away. Afterwards, the player has to win the exhibition match, and when this is done, Cactuar is unlocked as a playable character.


More Cactuars can be seen in Glare Desert as spectators, and in the game's ending credits, there is a brief scene with six Cactuars and a watermelon-patterned basketball on [[Sunset Beach]].

===''Mario Sports Mix''===
Cactuar, along with the other ''Final Fantasy'' characters, returned in the game ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]''. Here, it is the only character to have a stat amount over the max of 5 (indicated by a red bar instead of a yellow bar). Cactuar is unlocked by winning 60 games or beating it on a secret route of the Star Cup (to reach Cactuar, the player must mostly follow the same route to unlock She-Slime, but in order to unlock Cactuar, the player must be on the left side). It has the highest speed stat (depicted by a red stat bar), but its other stats are at their lowest level. However, Cactuar's high speed comes with a high drawback in that it ends up skidding whenever it has to quickly change direction. When Cactuar makes a special move, it will send spikes all over everybody (sometimes including its own teammate(s)) making them shocked and unable to move.
