'''MIPS''' is a yellow rabbit found in the [[The_Castle#The_Basement|Castle Basement]]. He appears when Mario exits a course after collecting 15 stars or 50 stars. MIPS will run away if Mario tries to go near him, but if Mario manages to grab him MIPS will give Mario a star. 2 stars can be obtained from MIPS. MIPS was used extensively in early Nintendo 64 test simulations<sup style='color:blue'>[citation needed]</sup>. Mario was originally going to be able to throw MIPS, but this was removed<ref>[https://tcrf.net/Prerelease:Super_Mario_64_(Nintendo_64)#Concept SM64 Concept section from The Cutting Room Floor]</ref>.
