'''Wing Mario''' is the form [[Mario]] takes on whenever he grabs a [[Wing Cap]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. It grants him the ability to fly with the small wings on his cap until the time limit expires. In order for Mario to attain flight, he must first perform a [[Triple Jump]] (which can be done in place in this form) or be shot from a [[cannon]]. Once in the air, the player must constantly raise and lower themself to maintain flight (similar to [[Cape Mario]] in ''[[Super Mario World]]''). The player can also use the wings to fall slower and prevent falling damage. Mario also transforms into Wing Mario by grabbing the [[Jumbo Star]] that appears after defeating [[Bowser]] in the final battle.

Wing Mario returns in the remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', but the Wing Cap is replaced by a white feather (with both the item and the Wing Mario form itself translated to '''Wings'''<ref name="64DSInstructionBooklet" /> in the English manual), and it can only be obtained by Mario in the single-player game. Players can still slow their fall, but it no longer prevents damage, unlike in the original version. Also, the game's multiplayer versus mode includes yellow [[! Block]]s containing feathers that allow [[Luigi]], [[Wario]], and [[Yoshi]] to use this form, though in Yoshi's case, the wings [[Winged Yoshi|grow on his back instead]]. Wing Mario is also depicted on the game's Japanese and Korean box art.

Wing Mario makes a cameo appearance in one of ''[[Mario Party]]''{{'}}s title screens, where he is shown flying through the air in [[Mario's Rainbow Castle]], holding Luigi and Yoshi by their hands.

It made another cameo on the side of the box of [[Nintendo Monopoly]].

*The song that plays when the player is Wing Mario is a remix of the theme of [[Superstar Mario]] from ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', which in turn is a remix of the original invincibility tune from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' This theme is shared with [[Vanish Mario]] and in the remake, Vanish Luigi. It is also used when Mario rides on a [[Green Shell]].

**Said theme in ''Super Mario 64'' is recycled for [[Invincible Mario]]'s theme in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', but with extra drums added.
