He also shoots fireballs from his shell. The only difference from Iggy is that there are fireballs jumping up and down, making it very hard for players who don't have power-ups.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Larry makes his 3D-rendering-debut in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii, alongside the rest of his siblings. He is first shown when the koopalings pop out of the cake and capture peach in which it shows the supposed birth order from right to left except for Jr. who was on top.

Larry is the first boss on the first world rendering in the grass world although it is never said why his chosen for the grass world as his main color appears to be blue. He is fought in the tower and castle in order to reach world 2. He was given a magic skeptor just like his siblings and can fire a blue blast. Larry was also given the same sequence as Super mario bros 3.

When you reach the end of the tower, you will see larry upset and shocked that you had made it to him as steam comes out of his head. The fight is very simple and has no obstacle. First, he will try to shoot you with his skeptor blast which were given to all the koopalings. Then you must dodge his jumps. If you land on his head or hit with fire balls about eight times he will curl up in his shell just like the other koopalings and slide across the stage, trying to hit you, then go back to his normal form. His tactics are the same as Iggy's except much slower and lacks the moving platforms, much due to the fact that he is the first boss.

This time when you reach the end of the castle, Kamek will come causing the floor to shift. This time Larry will do the same thing as the castle except his shell attack is a bit faster. After he is defeated he will fall off the screen and you may grab a key sending you to the next world.

At the end of the game, you can see jr. yelling at Larry to help push there father as he was exhausted and well far behind.
