Another long-awaited power-up has made its appearance, SMB3’s Frog Suit allows you to run on water (while carrying stuff of course,) swim with ease, again, it’s only available for the Mario Bros. 3 Game style.

Coming straight from Super Mario World is the Power Balloon, you can float along as only a Balloon can, Nintendo added a nifty feature where you can blow past certain objects when using the Power Balloon, but remember to stay away from pointy things! (Couldn’t resist Balloon Humor!) Only Available for the Super Mario World Gamestyle.

Time to Channel your Inner Flying-Squirrel in this latest power-up, the Super Acorn makes its way to the Mario Maker Franchise, hailing from New Super Mario Bros. U, Available only for the New Super Mario Bros. U Game Style.
