Foreman Spike first appeared as a rival for Mario in the game ''[[Wrecking Crew]]''. Here he appeared on the other side of the demolition site, knocking out different areas in an attempt to beat Mario. He also employed [[Gotcha Wrench|Gotcha Wrenches]] and [[Eggplant Man|Eggplant Men]] to slow down Mario's progress and would attack Mario himself by trying to hit a wall Mario was currently beside. His motives were unknown, since he was apparently in charge of the demolition.

Foreman Spike first appeared as a rival for Mario in the game [[Wrecking Crew]]. Here he appears on the other side of the demolition site, knocking out different areas in an attempt to beat Mario. To make sure he wins, however, he employs [[Gotcha Wrench|Gotcha Wrenches]] and [[Eggplant Man|Eggplant Men]] to slow down Mario's progress. He also would attack Mario himself by trying to hit a wall Mario was currently beside. His motives were unknown (since he was apparently in charge of the demolition) and may have been fueled by any number of things.

Spike later made an unusual return in the Japan-only ''[[Wrecking Crew '98]]''. His design was altered to replace his beard with a mustache. In this game, he was the second-to-last boss faced in the normal path. This time, he worked for Bowser, which made Spike part of the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. After Spike was defeated, he became a playable character in 2-player mode, marking the first time Spike was playable in a game.

Spike later made an unusual return in the Japan-only [[Wrecking Crew '98]]. Here his design had been completely altered in that he lost his beard and gained a slick mustache in its place. In this game he is the second-to-last boss in the normal path. This time he works for Bowser, making Spike part of the Mushroom Kingdom. After Spike is defeated, he becomes a playable character in 2-player mode, marking the first time Spike is playable in a game. In this game he is often called "Blackie", which is his Japanese name.
 
 
He made another return in the Japanese-only ''[[Mobile Golf]]'' as a playable character. This game returned Spike to his original bearded appearance. In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', Foreman Spike's original NES sprite was one of the random costumes that Mario can wear as Costume Mario after touching a [[Mystery Mushroom]]. His costume was unlocked by clearing a 100 Mario Challenge on Normal or higher.
