Spike Tops are enemies which appear in the Newer Super Mario Bros. series.

Appearance[]

Newer Super Mario Bros. Wii[]

Spike Tops are little beetle-like creatures with a red shell, yellow skin, and two red glowing eyes. Their most notable feature is their spike on the top of their shells (hence the name). Though Spike Tops aren't limited to just red shells, in Star Haven, they're shown with purple shells.

Newer Super Mario Bros. DS[]

Spike Tops look the exact same in Newer Super Mario Bros. DS, except, of course, they have a lower polygon model.

Behavior[]

Newer Super Mario Bros. Wii[]

Spike Tops are usually placed on specific blocks, where they walk around it sticking to its sides. They're are generally durable only able to be killed by the Hammer Suit, Super Star, POW Block, as well as hitting the block they are on or using a P Switch when they are on a Brick Block.

Newer Super Mario Bros. DS[]

Spike Tops act the exact same as the last game.
