Flower Power: Favourite Mario Power-up?

I don't much care for the penguin suit. I mean I love penguins, but it's basically an ice flower. I also like ice flowers, but not as much as the fire flower. Unless it's against cheep cheeps. Then it's fun.

I was a little disappointed with the penguin suit, and it is basically an Ice Flower. Almost like Nintendo copied it but gave it better swimming capabilities and sliding power. But, the Blue Shell would have been better in terms of originality, since the Penguin suit is Ice Flower plus Blue Shell (which gave sliding and very slightly better swimming capabilities). Only difference is the visual difference.
 
Ugh, this is a tough one. Probably the Fire Flower, but I'm not sure.
 
THEY SHOULDVE MADE A HAMMER SUIT INSTEAD OF AN ICE FLOWER
 
Sonic: I'm drowning!
Mario: I'll save you!
Sonic: *panics*
Mario: Arrgh! What are you doing? We'll both drown!
*Mario and Sonic fall into the depths of the kiddy pool they are stuck in*
Kirby: *Epic grin*

ANYWAYS....

It was said in Super Mario Galaxy 2 that most power-ups would return, but here's a valid point: One of the most fun-to-use power-ups, the Ice Flower, did NOT return, despite being included in NSMBW.

Besides which, the time limit on the Fire Flower is a silly addition and really takes away the fun of the Fire Flower.

Just thought I'd point that out.

Nintendo should've ditched the Spring Mushroom and included the Ice Flower instead. I was appalled when I pressed a switch and froze a lake, instead of freezing the water as I landed on it, and wall-jumping up a waterfall.

Stupid fire flower time limit.... >

.they shouldve returned the ice flower with no time limit,and where you could shoot ice balls like nsmbw

They messed the Fire Flower thing up, it's hard to get used to. I was very dissapointed when I saw Fire Mario fade back into Normal Mario. Soon after, I was confused due to the fact that in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mario was able to throw Fireballs freely without any time limits. (Throwing Fireballs in Super Smash Bros. Brawl is my favourite thing to do) But yeah..Nintendo messed the Fireball thing up.
 
HAMMER SUIT FTW
 
Not yoshis island or paper mario the thousand year door
TTYD didn't have a long enough arena time. I wanted more action in the Glitz Pit before I has to defeat Rawk Hawk!

I think I have to agree with all the comments on the Fire Flower. Simple, effective and trustworthy. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles that some of the other power-ups have, but this classic is a keeper.
