Super Mario 64 /Super Mario 64 DS[edit]
InSuper Mario 64 andSuper Mario 64 DS, there are two Baby Penguins found onCool, Cool Mountain. One is found at the top of the mountain and is given the namesTuxie,[1]Li'l Penguin,[2] and just the Baby Penguin.[3] The name "Tuxie" comes from "tux," the shortened form of "tuxedo," which is a type of formal suit that bears a resemblance to a penguin's plumage. She needs to be reunited with theMother Penguin.Mario,Luigi, orWario must pick Tuxie up and carry her down the mountain to the Mother Penguin, located at its base. SinceYoshi cannot pick up anything with his hands, he cannot do this objective, and eating Tuxie simply makes her ask him not to do so and tell him she is not tasty, after which he spits her out. For finding Tuxie, the Mother Penguin awards the player character aPower Star. However, if Tuxie is picked up again after being returned, the Mother Penguin follows the player character sternly until he drops her. The player is able to drop Tuxie off the mountain without angering the Mother Penguin.
The other Baby Penguin is located on the roof of the cabin next to the Mother Penguin. If the player character delivers this lookalike to the Mother Penguin, she tells him that it looks nothing like her baby (she says elsewhere that her baby has her beak).
The Baby Penguins make a chirping sound as they walk, which can be heard from a short distance away. However, once the player character picks either of the penguins up, it emits a whining cry that sounds slightly like a car alarm, which stops only if the player character lets the penguin go or drops it. InSuper Mario 64 DS, the incorrect Baby Penguin does not make the crying sound when it is picked up. If Mario performs adive near either Tuxie or the other Baby Penguin near the Mother Penguin, the Baby Penguin performs a dive as well.
