The Spiny Shell appears in many ''Mario Kart'' games as an item from an [[Item Box]]. Its general purpose is similar to that of a [[Red Shell]], except that it targets the player in first place (or the leader of the race). Its function varies slightly from game to game. Aside from the ''Mario Kart'' games, the Spiny Shell is a power-up in some ''Mario'' sport games.
The Spiny Shell is an infamous item who purpose is similar to that of a [[Red Shell]] except that it targets the racer in first place, and it is usually unavoidable without the use of certain items, namely a [[Super Star]]. Since its debut appearance, the Spiny Shell is primarily associated with the ''Mario Kart'' series, but it is also an item in a few ''Mario''-related sports games and in later [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] installments.
