Ice Mario
Template:Diff Template:Form-infobox
Ice Mario is a form that Mario takes on in Super Mario Galaxy when he grabs an Ice Flower. When granted this form, any water or lava he touches freezes solid in the form of a hexagonal platform (which melts after a period of time if left unoccupied). This allows Mario to walk or skate across vast distances of water or lava with ease and safety. Ice Mario can also freeze water spouts and waterfalls, which usually grant him passage to higher areas. Like Fire Mario, this power-up has a time limit.
This power-up is introduced in the Freezeflame Galaxy, but can also be found in the Beach Bowl Galaxy and the Deep Dark Galaxy.
Ice Mario returns in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but it's look and power has been changed. The Ice Flower here gives Mario, Luigi, and the Blue and Yellow Toads the power to shoot Ice Balls, just like in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. Mario's overalls turn red, and cap and shirt turns light blue, similar to Fire Mario. It isn't to be confused with the Penguin Suit and Penguin Mario, which shoot ice-like snowballs, making the Power-up similar.
Trivia
- The music played during the duration of this power up closely resembles the music played for Fire Mario, but is played in a higher key.
- If the player presses Z while skating as Ice Mario, or any other form in Super Mario Galaxy, the player will start skating backwards.
