This article is about the musical theme from New Super Mario Bros. For the form taken after obtaining a Mega Mushroom, see Mega Mario.
"Mega Mario"

"Mega Mario" in New Super Mario Bros.
Composed by:
Asuka Hayazaki
First appearance New Super Mario Bros. (2006)
Latest appearance Mario Party Superstars (2021)

"Mega Mario"[1] is a musical theme composed by Asuka Hayazaki that first appears in New Super Mario Bros. The theme plays when the player collects a Mega Mushroom and continues playing throughout the duration of power-up's effects. The theme has reappeared in several games since its original appearance, though it has continued to be exclusively associated with the Mega Mushroom.

Reuses

Game Description
Mario Kart Wii The theme plays when the player uses a Mega Mushroom.
New Super Mario Bros. 2 The theme plays when the player collects a Mega Mushroom.
Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury The theme plays when a player collects a Mega Mushroom.

Arrangements

Mario Kart Wii

Mario Kart Wii extensively showcases the doppler effect, which is a real-world phenomenon where the pitch of a sound is distorted when the object omitting the sound is moving at a different speed than the object receiving the sound. As a result, when the player passes or is passed by an opponent with a Mega Mushroom, the pitch of the theme will be distorted as they move closer or further away from the player.

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash

In Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash, a metal arrangement of "Mega Mario" plays when a player collects a Mega Mushroom.

Mario Party series

Mario Party: The Top 100

In Mario Party: The Top 100, an arrangement of "Mega Mario" plays during the Mush Pit minigame when a player collects a Mega Mushroom, replacing the Starman arrangement heard in Mario Party 3.

Mario Party Superstars

Like Mario Party: The Top 100, Mario Party Superstars features a new arrangement of "Mega Mario" that plays in Mush Pit when a player collects a Mega Mushroom.

Other arrangements
