This item made its first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Kart]]''. In said game, the banana peel is an item that the player can throw on the road. If that same player or other players hit the banana peel, their kart will slip and spin around. The banana peel has appeared in every ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'' game since. In ''Brawl'', the banana peel can be picked up and thrown on the floor. If a person moves over the banana peel, the person will trip; however, the banana peel does not work on the person who threw it.
Slipping on banana peels is a [[:wikipedia:Banana_peel#In_comical_context|classic slapstick gag]]. Among ''Smash''-related games, Banana Peels appear as items in the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'' series starting with the original ''[[Super Mario Kart]]'': they can be placed on the road as hazards, and contact with one makes karts slip and spin around. However, unlike the banana peels in ''Smash'', the ones in ''Mario Kart'' have faces and can affect their user.
 
While depicted as having faces in the ''Mario Kart'' series, the Banana Peels in ''Smash'' lack these faces.
