Megasparkle Goomba is a yellow-eyed Goomba that was corrupted by the Red Royal Sticker and a boss in Paper Mario: Sticker Star. It guards Goomba's Fortress and is the main boss of World 1. The Megasparkle Goomba is also the first boss of the game.
History[]
Paper Mario: Sticker Star[]
The sixteen Goombas that formed the Megasparkle Goomba were once normal Goombas until the splitting of the Sticker Comet. The red Royal Sticker happened to crash on top of Goomba's Fortress. One curious Goomba grabbed it and became corrupted, sticking the Royal Sticker to its head. This ended up cursing 15 nearby Goombas, fusing them into the Megasparkle Goomba.
When Mario and Kersti made it to the top of Goomba's Fortress, the corrupted Goomba ordered the other Goombas to attack them.
Attacks[]
Despite being the first boss of the game, the Megasparkle Goomba possess a wide variety of powerful attacks. It can leap high into the air and perform ground pound move, crashing into Mario. It can also roll up into a tube, similar to the tube curse in Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.
Like any ordinary Goomba in Sticker Star, the Megasparkle Goomba can fold up into an paper cone. This makes him unable to be stomped on with normal Jump or Hopslipper stickers. He can also turn around to reveal the Goombas that make up his supersized form. These Goombas shoot towards Mario up to three at a time, flying into Mario in the form of projectiles.
Trivia[]
- The Megasparkle Goomba appears very similar to the Goomba King from the first Paper Mario game. Both are Goomba royalty and serve as the first bosses of their respective games.
