Super Mario Bros Wonder’s new badges add a perks-like twist on power-ups.
Super Mario Bros Wonder introduces a new perk system to the Mario Bros. franchise. Badges enhance abilities like running, jumping, and swimming. Some also give Mario new abilities like invisibility or attracting nearby coins. There are three badge types in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Action badges grant Mario new abilities, boost badges enhance existing abilities, and expert badges are earned after showing a high level of competency in gameplay.
