An '''Electrogoomba''' (referred to as a '''Cosmic Blooper''' in the beta) is an enemy in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It is an alien, amphibious [[Goomba]]. They are seen in various parts of the game and headbutt Mario when he approaches. They can easily be squashed. When jumped on, a Coin is always left by them. When a [[Star Spin]] is used to defeat them, they leave three [[Star Bit|star bits]].
'''Octoombas''' are amphibious alien [[List of enemies|enemies]] which debut in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', in which they are named '''Electrogoombas''' ('''Cosmic Blooper''' in the beta). Octoombas are very common, and they appear in several [[Galaxy|galaxies]]. Octoombas are a hybrid of both a [[Goomba]] and an [[Octorok]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda (franchise)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' franchise, and their name is even a portmanteau of "Goomba" and "Octorok."
 
==Characteristics==
Octoombas are odd-looking Goombas. They have smooth skin with a blue head and yellow spots all over their bodies. They have a round mouth, like a [[Snifit]], and attack with a headbutt. Unlike regular Goombas, Octoombas only patrol a very small set area. Octoombas also have yellow glowing eyes and a small antenna on the top of their head.
 
==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Electrogoombas attack by headbutting [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] when he approaches. They can easily be squashed. When jumped on, a [[Coin]] is always left by them. If a [[Star Spin]] is used to defeat an Electrogoomba, it drops behind three [[Star Bit]]s.
