Super Mario Kart contains eight different power ups that can be used by players during races, they are picked up by driving over question mark tiles on the track. Green shells cause a player to lose coins and spin if hit, red shells do the same but home on to the player in front. Mushrooms give players a quick boost of speed whilst stars cause a player to be temporarily invulnerable and cause other players to spin if they hit them. The feather power up allows player's to make one large jump which can be used to take short cuts on the tracks and the lightning power up causes every other player to shrink slowing them down. the coin power up gives the player an additional two coins whilst the banana power up causes any player who hits it to spin and lose coins.
In addition to the player's power ups each character has a super power that they use when controlled by the computer. Mario and Luigi are able to activate the star power up at any time, Koop Troopa throws shells at oponents and Donkey Kong Jr. can throw bananas. The Princess and Toad both drop mushrooms which shrink anyone who comes into contact with them whilst Bowser throws exploding bombs which cause players to slow down and bounce around if hit. The eggs left by Yoshi cause players to spin adn lose coins.
