 * "Mushroom Houses," for lack of a better term (why go to the trouble of getting to these, just for a single item?)

power ups

 * Mushroom: The mushroom turns normal Mario to super Mario. If hit as super mario, you turn back into regular mario
 * Fire Flower: The Fire flower turns Mario into fire Mario enabling him to shoot fireballs. If you're hit as fire Mario, you turn into super Mario.
 * Mega Mushroom: The mega mushroom turns Mario into "mega Mario" for a limited amount of time. While mega Mario, everything/anything you hit will die or break.
 * Poison Mushroom: Turns Mario into mini mario. As mini Mario, one hit from anything will kill you but, you also can get into areas the other Marios cannot.
 * Shell: The shell turns Mario into Shell Mario, which is Mario as a shell. If you're hit as shell Mario, you turn into super Mario. The special attack as shell Mario is if you run at a certain speed, you duck into the shell and roll around
 * Green Mushroom:  Gives an extra life (1-up)

Mushroom Houses
There are 4 different kinds of Mushroom houses in the game Red, Green, Mega, Blue

After entering a house (except for the blue houses) they dissapear.


 * Red house: Lets you randomly get one of the power-ups except for the mega mushroom
 * Green house:  This house has 6 "?" blocks in it 3 are 1-ups, 1 is 3 1-ups, 1 doubles all the 1-ups found and the last is a bowser block which makes it so you get all the 1-ups you found.
 * Mega House: This house gives you a Mega Mushroom.
 * Blue House:  Lets you buy backgrounds for the touch screen for 20 star coins a piece
