Super Smash Bros. for Wii U N/A

NTSC As iconic as iconic gets, this gaming celebrity is known for saving the world from Bowser. He's got amazing jumping skills and makes use of a wide range of transformations. In his free time, he plays too many sports to count. In Smash Bros., he's a well-rounded fighter you can rely on. Say it with me: "It's-a me, Mario!"

NES: Super Mario Bros. (10/1985)

PAL It's-a him! Maaario! Whether he's wearing one of his special outfits or just his normal blue dungarees, this running, jumping, Bowser-bashing, princess-saving hero is an all-round superstar. And in this game, he's got enough tricks up his sleeve to deal with anything. If you don't know which fighter to pick, Mario's a solid choice.

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Luigi recently celebrated his 30th anniversary with the Year of Luigi, but all that attention just made him even more shy and awkward. In Smash Bros., Luigi takes a lot of cues from his brother in fighting style, adding flair to moves like Super Jump Punch. His taunts, however, are truly unique.

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Wii U Luigi recently celebrated his 30th anniversary with the Year of Luigi, but all that attention just made him even more shy and awkward. In Smash Bros. (as in life), Luigi tends to follow his brother's lead, but he adds his own flair to moves like Super Jump Punch. His taunts, however, are 100% Weegee.

Arcade: Mario Bros. (1983)
3DS: Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (03/2013)

PAL With the Year of Luigi long gone now, it's up to you to prove to everyone that Mario's cowardly co-star is still awesome. He may share a lot of moves with his brother, but he still puts his own spin on things. When you Super Jump Punch a foe just right, for example, the noise he makes is epic. His taunts are pretty funny too. Try them!

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 1000 G

NTSC Luigi may sulk when his down taunt is used, but his little dejected kick can actually hurt a nearby enemy fighter. It can even trigger a meteor smash! Notice an enemy leisurely hanging from the edge? Run over and pout on the edge—that foe will be the one with something to pout about!

Arcade: Mario Bros. (1983)
3DS: Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (03/2013)

PAL Luigi might look a bit sulky when you use his down taunt, but when he does it next to another fighter, it can get in a little hit – well, a "little hit" that can also sometimes be a meteor smash! Say you spot a fighter hanging off the edge of the stage. Just give them a pout and a kick with this taunt, and they'll fall to their doom.

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Princess of the Mushroom Kingdom, Peach continues to prove that "powerful" and "cute" are not mutually exclusive. In Smash Bros., Peach uses her dress to float above the fray, suddenly descending and attacking with numerous weapons. A frying pan? Umbrella? TOAD?! Where does she keep it all?

NES: Super Mario Bros. (10/1985)
Nintendo DS: Super Princess Peach (02/2006)

PAL The Mushroom Kingdom's princess isn't just a pretty face – she's also strong and crafty. She can dodge attacks by gliding through the air, and she's hiding all sorts of stuff under that dress: a frying pan, a tennis racket, a golf club...even a Toad! If you're planning to take on Peach, just know that she's more than ready for you!

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Peach may be a princess, but that doesn't mean she shies away from an honest day's work. Her down special Vegetable is basically farm labor, and the fruits...er, vegetables of her work can be thrown. An angry-looking vegetable will do extra damage, too! She can also pull up Bob-ombs, or even a Mr. Saturn!

NES: Super Mario Bros. (10/1985)
Nintendo DS: Super Princess Peach (02/2006)

PAL Peach normally sticks to tasks befitting a royal, but her Vegetable special is pretty much farm labour! You can tell how much damage the veggies will do by looking at them. Happy/indifferent ones just do a bit, while the ones that just look sick of life do a lot. And the ones that look like Bob-ombs or Mr. Saturn aren't veggies at all!

NES: Super Mario Bros. (10/1985)
N64: Super Mario 64 (09/1996)

PAL Mario's princess-kidnapping arch-enemy. Yes, he's quite the villain, but he can also be a bit of a buffoon, too. And sometimes, he even ends up on Mario's side! As a serious heavyweight, he's tough to launch, and using standard attacks on him will only make him laugh. If you want to send him flying, make sure to whack him really hard!

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U N/A

NTSC In the 1990 puzzle game Dr. Mario, Mario threw on a white coat and decided to take a shot at that whole "medicine" thing. In this game, he's a balanced fighter who can throw Megavitamin capsules and nimbly deflect blows with his Super Sheet. He's not quite as quick as normal Mario, but his attacks deal a bit more damage.

NES: Dr. Mario (10/1990)
Wii: Dr. Mario Online Rx (05/2008)

PAL In Dr. Mario, released in Europe in 1991, Mario threw on a white coat and decided to have a bash at the whole medicine thing.

You can move left and right while doing it and press the button repeatedly to rise into the air.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U N/A

NTSC The mysterious Rosalina lives in the Comet Observatory with the Lumas. In Smash Bros., Rosalina and Luma can fight in different places at the same time. If you can trap someone between Rosalina and Luma, you'll be able to unleash incredible damage with their joined attacks!

PAL Rosalina and the Lumas have been close ever since she travelled the galaxy with one of the little star-like creatures. Now, the commander of the Comet Observatory appears in this game, with her trusty companion fighting alongside her. Their greatest strength is being able to attack together at the same time.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U 1000 G

NTSC Rosalina can pull in items and projectiles around her with her Gravitational Pull move. Her up special Launch Star is a diagonal jump and, though harmless, it has exceptional range. You also have some control over Rosalina's trajectory when she uses it.

PAL With a flick of Rosalina's wand, the move Gravitational Pull draws in items – even ones that are stuck somewhere. Her Launch Star up special is a diagonal jump that can be aimed slightly. It doesn't deal any damage, but it helps you jump higher and stay in the air longer, making it ideal for getting back to the stage easily.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U N/A

NTSC Bowser's beloved, spoiled son sports a bandanna with a large mouth drawn on it. Like his father, Bowser Jr. longs to take Mario down. In Smash Bros., he'll fight from inside his heavily armed Junior Clown Car. The Clown Car takes less damage than Bowser Jr., so mind your positioning.

GameCube: Super Mario Sunshine (08/2002)
Wii: New Super Mario Bros. Wii (11/2009)

PAL Bowser's probably a big fan of his son, what with him hating Mario just as much as dear old Dad does. The tyke's Junior Clown Car is packed with gadgets and gizmos to throw at enemies! By the way, he's extra vulnerable when he jumps out of it, but...you wouldn't dream of attacking the cute little fella then, would you?

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS The biggest of the Koopalings. Morton stands out due to the three strands of hair on his head and...oh, the big star on his face. He's more brawn than brains, and in New Super Mario Bros. 2, he appears in World 4, where he'll stay glued to the spot until you attack him. Maybe he just can't be bothered to move!

NTSC A race of charming mushrooms that dwell in the Mushroom Kingdom, they prefer to be called Toads... Come to think of it, that's an odd name. It's not like they're very good jumpers. Captain Toad can't jump at all! What's that? ToadSTOOLS? ...That makes more sense.

NTSC This special grass first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 2, where plucking it revealed hidden items. It works exactly the same way in Smash Bros.—if you pluck the grass, maybe you'll find a game-changing object! If only cleaning an unkempt lawn would reveal such neat things...

NES: Super Mario Bros. 2 (10/1988)

PAL A patch of overgrown grass with an item buried underneath. Grass like this grew all over the place in Super Mario Bros. 2, and Mario and co. could pull it up to get all kinds of handy items for their quest. It works the same way in this game: pull it up to get an item. Who knows what it'll be?

NTSC This mysterious mushroom will cause you to grow several times your normal size. Once you've grown, the power of your attacks and your ability to launch your opponents will increase. However, being so large—and such an easy target—may not be so great in a fight with lots of enemies...

NES: Super Mario Bros. (10/1985)
Nintendo DS: New Super Mario Bros. (05/2006)

PAL This mysterious mushroom will just keep sliding until it bounces off a wall. If you touch it, though, you'll grow and grow and grow! You'll get stronger and be harder to launch, but you'll also be a much easier target. Maybe standing out so much during a fight isn't such a good idea...

NTSC Becoming giant and looming over your foes is pretty great, yeah? Well, that won't happen if you get this mushroom. It looks a lot like the Super Mushroom, but it's a slightly different color and its face is... unhappy. If you use this mushroom, you'll shrink down and be easy to send flying.

NES: Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels (08/1993)
3DS: Super Mario 3D Land (11/2011)

PAL So, you thought you'd nabbed a Super Mushroom, eh? Nope! Now you're tiny! If you'd looked more closely, you'd have seen it was a slightly different colour – it was a Poison Mushroom. Now you're mini, weak and very launchable. At least dodging's not hard when you're this size!

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U ? G

NTSC You may recognize these star-shaped items as they bounce across the stage. Picking one up will grant you a short period of invincibility. You can't wipe out enemies just by walking into them—like in Mario games—but you can still attack without fear. Your foes will be running scared!

NES: Super Mario Bros. (10/1985)
SNES: Super Mario World (08/1991)

PAL You'll see one of these little stars bouncing along the stage from time to time. Touch it to become invincible! (Well, for a while, at least.) Unfortunately, they don't work exactly the same way as they do in the Mario series, so you won't damage anyone just by walking into them – you'll still need to put some effort in.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U ? G

NTSC This green box will make you the ultimate defensive character, turning you into solid metal for a short time. You won't flinch from enemy attacks, even in midair, and it is much harder to launch you. On the other hand, you fall like a brick. Getting hit will reduce the duration of this item.

Nintendo DS: Super Mario 64 DS (11/2004)

PAL Whack this box to turn into a metal you! You won't flinch when attacked – even in mid-air – and you'll be harder to launch. Now, the downsides: you'll move slower, fall faster, and recovering when you fall off a stage will be a nightmare. Also, it's only temporary, or lasts until you've taken a certain amount of damage.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U ? G

NTSC If there is one thing I've learned from Mario Kart, it's that lightning can strike without a cloud in the sky. Picking this up will hit your foes with a character-shrinking blast of lightning, making them really easy to launch into the distance. If you get struck, you'd best run until the fight is fair again.

PAL Don't let sunny weather fool you! Lightning can strike at any time. This mighty force of nature can make you feel small...and actually make you small, too.

NTSC When you try to throw this item, you'll instead transform into a Bullet Bill and fly in the direction you were throwing. Anyone in your path will be knocked away. Be careful, though, since you fly fast and can barely steer—not to mention that foes can deflect you. KO them, not yourself!

PAL Turn into a Bullet Bill and charge into your enemies to send them flying. The direction you fly in is pretty much set when you use it. You'll be unstoppable, but on the other hand, you'll fly so fast that you might end up a victim of your own bullet-y...ness. Anyway, be careful!

NTSC This Fire Flower won't transform you like in the Mario series, but it will still let you unleash some fiery damage! Holding down the attack button lets you spew fire at your opponents, dealing constant damage to them. You can also throw it at them, but it just doesn't look as cool that way.

They're weak in this game too – the worst they'll do is run at you. At this point, they must just be expecting to get stomped on... Don't expect a fanfare if you beat one.

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Koopa Troopas are the main representatives of Bowser's army. They are just about as common as Goombas. They know no fear, bravely charging ahead even if it means falling off a cliff or into a hole. They do this in Smash Run as well. Defeating them will reduce them to a shell you can throw.

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Wii U These turtles are just as common as Goombas in Bowser's army. They may look meek, but they have the guts to leap off any cliff they come across. If you jump on one, its shell will be yours to kick or throw as you please. Many locations in Mario games are named after these enemies, such as Koopa Beach and Koopa Park.

They're brave little soldiers, and nothing will make them stop in their tracks – not you, not holes, not even cliffs. The same goes in Smash Run, too. Once they see a fighter, they'll go right after them. Beat them or stomp on them to turn them into shells you can throw.

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS The red-shelled Paratroopa. Many a time Mario has used these flying turtles as a stepping-stone to victory. In Smash Run, they have better agility than their green brethren but are largely similar. If you defeat them, their wings will fall off and they'll become regular Koopa Troopas again.

NTSCSuper Smash Bros. for Wii U These winged foes tend to fly right in front of high places Mario wants to reach, so it isn't all that surprising that he constantly uses them as stepping stones. Jumping on them knocks their wings off, turning them into regular Koopa Troopas. These guys are surprisingly adaptable: they play tennis and basketball, and they can even drive!

NTSC Luigi's trusty tool, the Poltergust 3000. This isn't your neighbor's boring, old vacuum—the Poltergust 3000 sucks up ghosts! It also can find them when they are hiding and can blow them around a room! Why doesn't every family own one of these, I wonder...

PAL Unlike your run-of-the-mill vacuum cleaner, this one sucks up...ghosts! And it doesn't just suck them up – it blows them around, draws them to you, and even helps you find them when they're hidden. Talk about convenient! No home should be without one. No Luigi should be without one, either.

Koopa Troopa (Red) Enemy KoopaTroopaRedTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC Bowser's go-to foot soldiers. They sport red shells and advance forward, but they have the common sense not to walk off cliffs. During Smash Run, they'll advance toward any fighter they see, attacking with their whole body. These Koopas leave red shells when beaten.

PAL These Koopas are a lot like their green counterparts, except their shells are red, and they have the sense not to blindly walk off cliffs or into holes. If one spots you in Smash Run, it'll attack with its whole body, so watch out! Defeat it to turn it into a shell you can throw at other enemies.

Koopa Paratroopa (Green) Enemy KoopaParatroopaGreenTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC These green-shelled Paratroopas from the Mario series come in two varieties: ones that jump toward you, and ones that float in the air until they're swatted down. When you stomp or damage one in Smash Run, it'll lose its wings and be transformed back into a normal Koopa Troopa.

NTSC With his cute little specs and smiling cloud, it's hard not to love Lakitu...until he starts pelting you with Spiny Eggs. This meanie has been tormenting Mario since the very first Super Mario Bros. game, and his mode of attack is no different here. He'll try and hover out of reach, but only by taking him out can you keep the Spiny rain from falling.

NTSC Somebody needs to ask Lakitu just where he gets these spiky-shelled little critters... They start off as Spiny Eggs when he hurls them and then turn into Spinies when they land. They'll immediately head for any fighters in the area. Avoid them or take them out—your choice!

PAL Somebody needs to ask Lakitu just where he gets these spiky-shelled little critters...

Bill Blaster Enemy BillBlasterTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 50

NTSC Usually a big cannon with a skull on it is a clear sign that it's time to flee. Running away isn't an option in the Super Mario series, though. It may be known as the Bill Blaster, but it can occasionally fire Koopas or Shy Guys instead. Take it out before it's out of ammo for more goodies!

PAL Usually, seeing a cannon with a skull on it would be your sign to run, and that's true in the Mario series as well...but with Bullet Bills speeding towards you, it's harder than it looks! Despite the name, they'll sometimes fire Koopas or Shy Guys in this game, just for variety. Take it down before it's out of ammo to get more goodies!

Blue Shy Guy Enemy BlueShyGuyTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC These guys are too shy to show you their real faces, so they hide them behind white masks. Some people claim they've seen Shy Guys walking on stilts or even running around on fire! In Smash Run, the blue Shy Guys have better defense than other Shy Guys, but that really isn't saying much...

PAL Just what IS beneath this Shy Guy's mask? Could it be...another mask?! Anyway, Shy Guys come in lots of varieties: some walk on stilts, others are always on fire! In Smash Run, these blue ones have better defence than the others. It's only slightly better, though, so don't worry. Defeat them to get yourself some Defence stat boosts.

Yellow Shy Guy Enemy YellowShyGuyTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS ? G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon.

NTSC Those white masks are just eerie, but it's possible they are better than what actually hides behind them... Anyway, some people claim to have seen tall Shy Guys with longer masks than normal. In Smash Run, yellow Shy Guys are great jumpers, so they'll drop Jump stat boosts when defeated.

PAL Did you know there are lots of different kinds of Shy Guy, including massive ones with giant masks? In Smash Run, yellow Shy Guys are slightly better at jumping than the others. Sometimes, though, they're just too busy bouncing to attack. Take them down to get Jump stat boosts.

Green Shy Guy Enemy GreenShyGuyTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 50

NTSC Perhaps the white mask just conceals another, whiter mask beneath? There is no way to know, as these shy fellows will never take them off. In Smash Run, the green Shy Guys can run faster than other Shy Guys. You'll have to be quick to catch them, but you'll be rewarded with Speed stat boosts!

PAL Their white masks certainly make them look the same, but on the inside, Shy Guys are very different – some dream of being soldiers or dancers! In Smash Run, the green ones are fast on their feet, so they're quick to close in and hit you with a punch combo. Deal with them to get Speed stat boosts.

Flame Chomp Enemy FlameChompTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC If you thought Chain Chomps were bad, wait till you meet Flame Chomps. They use the flames that make up their tail as ammo, and when they run out, they head straight for you and self-destruct. When you defeat one, it'll explode and take out any enemies nearby, and it'll leave a whole load of stat boosts behind, too.

PAL If you thought Chain Chomps were bad, Flame Chomps are so much worse. They use the flames that make up their tail as ammo, and when they run out, they head straight for you and self-destruct.

Spike Top Enemy SpikeTopTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC These turtles come from the Super Mario series and have one big spike on their backs. Their eyes glow from beneath the edge of their shells, watching you as they approach. In Smash Run, they crawl along walls, floors, and the ceiling. They aren't bothered by projectiles, so you'll have to find other ways to defeat them.

PAL With a massive spike on its back, glowing little eyes peering out from under its shell, and the way it walks along walls and ceilings, this turtle foe from the Super Mario series is pretty creepy. In Smash Run, just touching it will hurt you, and its shell protects it from projectiles. You'll either have to attack it directly or throw it.

P Switch Stage PSwitchTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC This fun item has been popping up ever since it first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3. Jumping on it produces coins...reveals hidden doors... The effect is different from game to game. On Golden Plains, the P-Switch will make a ton of blue coins appear. This is a great way to get yourself a large stack!

PAL This switch made its debut in Super Mario Bros. 3 and has been a mainstay of the series ever since. Depending on the game, it can have all sorts of effects. In this one, you can step on it (or attack it, if you like) to make tons of blue coins appear. There's no better way to get yourself a formidable stack of coins!

Rainbow Road Stage RainbowRoadTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 10

NTSC This beautiful seven-color course is the finale of the Special Cup in Mario Kart 7. Set high above in space, drivers navigate the rings of Saturn and cross craters on the moon. Shy Guys are racing on this course as the fighters compete on and around it, and they have no problem hitting you with their karts.

PAL The Special Cup's final course in Mario Kart 7. This space track takes you through Saturn's rings and the craters on the moon. While fighting on the Rainbow Road stage, you'll fly around and sometimes even descend onto the track itself. Watch out! Shy Guys are having a proper race down there, and they don't brake for anyone!

Shy Guy + Standard Kart Stage StandardShyGuyTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC Shy Guy makes his debut as a racer in Mario Kart 7 once you win the 150cc Shell Cup. He's a lightweight racer with superb handling. Watch out for the eight Shy Guys racing around the Rainbow Road stage—they'll happily run you over if you get in their way!

PAL Shy Guy makes his debut as a selectable racer in Mario Kart 7, and all you have to do to unlock him is win the 150cc Shell Cup. He's lightweight, like Toad and Koopa, and has excellent handling. The Rainbow Road stage has eight Shy Guys whizzing around the track, so be careful not to get hit, or you'll go speeding off the stage!

Cheep Cheep Series Related The Cheep Cheep Trophy from Super Smash Bros. 3DS Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC Those powerful pectoral fins can turn them into a dangerous airborne threat. Besides Mario games, you can find them in the oceans of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. This critter was also the inspiration for the Cheep Charger in Mario Kart Wii.

PAL These puffy fish use their strong fins to launch themselves high into the air. And they've not only made appearances in the Mario series – they're also bobbing around in the water in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening! They were also the inspiration for the Cheep Charger in Mario Kart Wii.

Blooper Series Related BlooperTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC The danger from Bloopers lies in their erratic movement. Many Marios became squid bait after being lulled into a false sense of security by a Blooper's graceful waltz. The lovely music doesn't help. A Big Blooper lives in Super Paper Mario, if you want to hang out with it.

PAL They might look harmless, but be wary – Bloopers are tough and very territorial. The first time they showed up, they were accompanied by a calming waltz that led many Marios into their waiting tentacles. There's also a huge one, Big Blooper, in Super Paper Mario. If you like challenges, maybe you should try taking it on.

Buzzy Beetle Series Related BuzzyBeetleTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC A bothersome enemy protected by a hard shell. Mario's fireballs have no effect on these guys, much to the envy of their Koopa buddies. Buzzy Beetles also like to hang out on ceilings and then rudely drop on Mario as he passes. That sturdy shell gives Mario a major headache!

PAL A troublesome foe protected by a tough shell. Some Buzzy Beetles walk upside-down on ceilings and fall on Mario as he walks past, so watch out! Surely they're going to crack their shells one day, dropping from the ceiling like that... Best to avoid this crazy situation altogether.

Pokey Series Related PokeyTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC Could easily be mistaken for a cactus, except for the eyes and the mouth, and the way they roll...er, stroll... around the desert with such careful balance. Check out the pretty flowers these guys are sporting in Super Mario Sunshine!

PAL Pokeys are a bit like cacti, except with eyes and mouths, and they're made up of prickly balls piled on top of each other. It doesn't exactly make for the most stable body, so they have to wiggle their way around really carefully. Also, the ones in Super Mario Sunshine have pretty flowers on their heads. Definitely worth a look!

Tanooki Mario & Kitsune Luigi Series Related TanookiMario&KitsuneLuigiTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 10

NTSC If you find a Super Leaf, Mario transforms into Tanooki Mario! His newfound tail works as a weapon and as a propeller to slow his fall. His brother, Luigi, won't turn into a Tanooki, though—he becomes Kitsune Luigi. Wouldn't want to have trouble telling the two apart, would we?

PAL When Mario uses a Super Leaf, he grows a tail and turns into Tanooki Mario, a very handy form indeed. Likewise, Luigi turns into Kitsune Luigi. Both of them can swing their tails to attack enemies, or wag their tails to slowly float down after a jump, almost like they're walking on air.

Statue Mario Series Related StatueMarioTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS ? G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon.

NTSC Statue Mario is invincible and will be ignored by his enemies. If he transforms in midair, he'll do a nice Thwomp impression but he can't move! Well, unless a moving platform carries him into unlucky enemies. Give it a try in Super Mario 3D Land!

PAL Statue Mario's not just invincible – he's invisible to enemies. If Mario turns into Statue Mario in mid-air, he'll slam down and be stuck to the spot. Moving platforms will still carry him, though, and he'll knock down anyone in his way. Try it next time you play Super Mario 3D Land!

Paragoomba Series Related ParagoombaTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC In Super Mario Bros., the first enemy Mario encounters is a Goomba. I lost a life to it just seconds after starting! If you add some easily removable wings to that creature, you've got yourself a Paragoomba. Flying mushrooms—that really does just sound nuts.

PAL The first enemy to appear in the original Super Mario Bros. is a Goomba. A lot of people have fond memories of carelessly walking into it and losing a life in two seconds flat. A Paragoomba is a Goomba with wings. Nuts, right? Wrong. Goombas aren't nuts – they're mushrooms, silly!

Dry Bones Series Related DryBonesTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS ? G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon.

NTSC They must have a bone to pick with Mario. No matter how many times he stomps them, these guys put themselves back together again. Can't they just rest in pieces? By the way, have you noticed how nimble they are in Mario Kart? Skeletons must be really aerodynamic or something...

PAL How these guys are alive when they're just bones is anyone's guess. Jump on one to make it fall apart, but don't expect it to rest in pieces! It'll be back on its feet in no time. These oddly cute little guys also turn up in the Mario Kart series as lightweight racers. Probably because they don't have any skin or muscles weighing them down.

Thwomp Series Related ThwompTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC You can't reason with a Thwomp. If you get close enough to try, it will just drop down to block your path. In fact, you can count on Thwomps to always do exactly that—they've gotten really good at it. A Koopa I know swears they work great as a home-security system...

PAL Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a Thwomp of your own? If anyone tried to break into your house, it would just go "THWOMP!" right on their head. Yep, a Thwomp would make a great home-security system. Unfortunately, they're not available in shops. Sad times.

Wiggler Series Related WigglerTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 10

NTSC Wigglers move in the funniest way. Their name really suits them, don't you think? Pretty easygoing normally, they get downright angry if you mess with that flower on their head. They move faster, which means only one thing—more wiggling!

PAL These wiggly fellows are usually pretty easy-going. Just don't mess with the white flower on their heads – that makes them rather cross. Actually, given that they turn red and start charging around twice as fast, you could say they go totally berserk. If you see one go into double-time-wiggling mode, you might want to stand back a bit.

Baby Mario Series Related BabyMarioTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC A baby version of Mario, sans mustache, who first appeared in Yoshi's Island. Still in diapers, he mostly leaves the adventuring to Yoshi unless a Super Star is involved. If that happens, he becomes invincible and runs around with a cape—a little smooth-faced Super Mario!

PAL A baby version of Mario (sans moustache) who first appeared in Yoshi's Island. Since he's still in nappies, it's up to Yoshi to keep him safe. Give him a Super Star, though, and he'll turn invincible, just like grown-up Mario! If only it gave him a moustache too... That would be awesome.

King Bob-omb Series Related KingBobOmbTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS N/A

NTSC The Bob-ombs are soldiers, and King Bob-omb is their general. Not only does he have a magnificent mustache, a shiny crown, and no key in his back, he also has two arms perfect for winding up his Bob-omb troops. Someone has to do that, right?

PAL The ruler of all Bob-ombs. What makes him different from his explosive subjects is his size, his moustache and the fact that he has a crown. He also doesn't have a wind-up key on his back. Instead, he's got two arms, which he presumably uses to wind up his subjects. ...And now you know who does that job!

Professor E. Gadd Series Related ElvinGaddTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 2500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 100

NTSC The ghosts of Evershade Valley have gone wild under the shadow of the shattered Dark Moon, so Professor E. Gadd of Gadd Science, Inc., asks Luigi to gather the moon's scattered pieces. I say "asks," but Professor Gadd has never really given Luigi a choice...

PAL The Dark Moon in the sky above Evershade Valley has shattered! With all the ghosts going on the rampage, Professor E. Gadd, the leading authority on ghost research, calls in a quivering Luigi to sort out the mess. The professor never was one to give him much of a choice...

King Boo Series Related KingBooTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 50

NTSC When the king of the Boos debuted in Luigi's Mansion, anyone who saw him was filled with terror. He has been very popular in Mario Kart and various sports games since then, but don't forget his terrible, ghostly spirit. Face him again in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon!

PAL When the leader of the Boos debuted in Luigi's Mansion, his creepy face was enough to freeze Luigi to the spot! After that, though, he took some time off to race in Mario Kart and compete in a bunch of sports...before going straight back to being evil in Luigi's Mansion 2.

Baby Peach Series Related BabyPeachTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC Princess Peach is cute to begin with, and she only gets cuter as a baby. Unlike Princess Peach, Baby Peach is more fond of her pink binky than of conversation. Despite this lack of communication, she makes for a great partner in sporting events!

PAL Princess Peach is always cute, but as a baby, she's even cuter! And that crown on her head isn't a giant crown – it's just that every bit of her is teeny tiny! Still, she's not the kind to stay tied to her mum's apron strings – she's out there playing sports and keeping active with the best of them!

Boomerang Mario Series Related BoomerangMarioTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC If you know how the Boomerang Bros. like to fight, they really aren't that tough. But if Mario BECOMES a Boomerang Bro—Boomerang Mario—what then? Will his opponents be stunned by his new moves? At the least, throwing a boomerang makes things more fun!

PAL "Before you judge someone, walk a mile in their shoes." Mario's taken that to the next level with the Boomerang Bros. – he's put on the whole outfit! As Boomerang Mario, he'll not just have more attack power – he'll have a big dollop of fun flinging that boomerang around. Great times!

Mario (With Propeller Box) Series Related PropellerBoxTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC Mario with his head in a Propeller Box. He looks like something you'd see in a parade. But wait! That propeller isn't just for show—Mario can use it in the middle of a jump to go even higher. And it'll slow his fall back to the ground too!

PAL It's Mario, but with a Propeller Box on his head. It looks like some kind of weird parade costume... Unlike a parade costume, though, the propeller isn't just for show – Mario can use it mid-jump to send himself soaring into the air, and then float gently back down to the ground afterwards!

Mario + Standard Kart Series Related StandardMarioTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC Customizing your ride is part of the fun of Mario Kart 7. Choose the best frame, tires, and glider to make your own dream machine! You can come up with some outlandish combinations, but I think Mario looks best when you keep things simple.

PAL Customising your kart in Mario Kart 7 is a lot of fun. Pick your favourite frame, tyres and glider, and make your mark out on the track! Maybe your favourites are the basic ones. Nothing wrong with that! Flashy is all well and good, but there's something to be said for "simple-but-effective".

Peach + Birthday Girl NTSC
Peach + Royal Ribbon PAL
Series Related BirthdayGirlTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS N/A

NTSC Princess Peach, where are you off to with that pink parasol? A day at the beach? More like a day at the races! Her tough and unconventional karts are ready, and she wants to take the checkered flag. Expect to see Peach win and be elegant at the same time.

PAL The next race is about to start, but who's going to come out on top? Will it be Peach, with her lovely Peach Parasol? She's customised her kart to be both tough AND cute, because she's not just aiming to win – she's aiming to win in style!

Bowser + Standard Kart Series Related StandardBowserTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC Bowser has tricked out his kart exactly like Mario's. With a level playing field, it all comes down to the driver's skill. Well, and luck. And if the driver got a good night's sleep... Only the goddess of victory knows who will win. That's part of the fun of Mario Kart!

PAL The kart Bowser has here isn't unique to him. You can use the same parts with any racer – even Mario! Of course, even if everyone has the same kart, the race still won't come down to pure skill – luck always plays a part. It's that unpredictability that makes Mario Kart so exciting, after all!

Donkey Kong + Barrel Train Series Related BarrelTrainTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC This mean machine may look like it was meant for the tracks, but really it was made to soar. That fine wood finish isn't so great in the water, though. I bet more than a few players have fond memories of the Barrel Train and its first driver, Diddy Kong.

PAL This kart might look like it needs to be on rails, but it's actually great in mid-air. Like any barrel, though, it has a tendency to float. In a race that comes down to speed in water, it'll get left behind. The name "Barrel Train" might ring a bell for Mario Kart veterans – it was Diddy Kong's kart!

Yoshi + Egg 1 Series Related Egg1Trophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC This heartwarming contraption looks more at home in a theme park than a raceway, but don't be fooled—this egg-shaped frame can dive under the sea or soar through the skies with ease! Your opponents will be filled with envy when you break this out in Mario Kart 7.

PAL This kart combo looks like it belongs in a theme park rather than on a racetrack. But, of course, looks can be deceiving! The egg-shaped frame known as the Egg 1 is a speed demon in the water. Mario Kart 7's tracks include everything from deep blue seas to soaring sky routes, so you've got to be prepared for anything!

Wario + Bruiser NTSC
Wario + Growlster PAL
Series Related BruiserTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC For most racers the finish line is the goal, but if you combine Wario with this bad boy, the game takes on a whole new meaning. And that meaning is to crash into everyone else. Behind the wheel of the Bruiser, Wario turns Mario Kart into a contact sport.

PAL Even in a race for first place, it's possible to sort of ignore the whole winning thing and just focus on bashing into the other racers instead. Wario's that kind of guy, so obviously he'd choose a frame like the Growlster and use it to ram other drivers off the road. It's like he thinks Mario Kart is a combat sport or something!

Lakitu + Cloud 9 Series Related Cloud9Trophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC This cloud kart is basically the bottom half of Lakitu. With its fluffy design and zippy style, Cloud 9 seems like a good match for Yoshi, but can you imagine what it would look like for Wario to drive this? It might just be distracting enough to give you an advantage!

PAL This cloud kart is basically Lakitu's other half. As in, "bottom half". Being so fluffy, it would be a good fit for Yoshi, but can you imagine Wario driving it? That'd just be weird! Then again, maybe he'd use that to throw his opponents off their game... Yep, that Wario's a sneaky one!

Peach (Tennis Outfit) Series Related PeachTennisOutfitTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC Peach brings an elegance and grace to tennis that her opponents are hard-pressed to match. Her skills with a racket can put the ball right where she wants it. How she and Baby Peach can play against each other without destroying space-time is the real question.

PAL Peach is so graceful with a racket in her hand, you'd think she was princess of the Tennis Kingdom! She specialises in aiming her shots at the very edge of the court, and it seems she has no problem playing alongside Baby Peach, even if that does raise a few space-time continuum issues.

Daisy (Tennis Outfit) Series Related DaisyTennisOutfitTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 50

NTSC Similar to Peach in how she plays tennis, Daisy also packs a seriously powerful shot. Maybe their choice of colors symbolizes their personalities? They're alike in a lot of ways, but if you could choose just one, would you choose Princess Daisy or Princess Peach?

PAL Like Peach, Daisy is a Technique player, but she has something else up her sleeve: a really powerful shot. Do you think the sedate pink and vivid orange reflect Peach and Daisy's different personalities? Would you say you're more Team Peach or Team Daisy? Or maybe...Team Both?

Mario (Gold Block) NTSC
Mario (With Gold Block) PAL
Series Related MarioWithGoldBlockTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC Oh no! Has the karma for smashing all those blocks finally caught up with Mario, and now he's doomed to wear a block on his head forever? Not at all! This Gold Block gives Mario coins whenever he runs and jumps. Cha-ching! Everyone loves getting more coins!

PAL Uh-oh! Is this payback for all the blocks Mario's smashed over the years?! Oh, wait. It's actually an awesome bonus! With the Gold Block on his head, running and jumping make that familiar sound: Da-ding! Da-ding! Da-di-di-di-di-ding! That's right – you get coins! Coins galore!

Paper Mario Series Related PaperMarioTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC The paper-thin Mario from the Paper Mario series recently quested for the wish-granting Royal Stickers. These magic stickers are for more than just collecting, though. Mario can use them to change his paper world, and nothing helps him in battle more than a sticker!

PAL A paper-thin version of Mario from the Paper Mario series. Most recently, he set off on a sticker-packed adventure to find the wish-granting Royal Stickers. Stickers aren't just for collecting, though – they're for making bridges, opening ancient doors, and even for taking on foes in battle!

Paper Luigi Series Related PaperLuigiTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC Paper Luigi is Paper Mario's younger brother. He shows up from time to time during Paper Mario's quest for the Royal Stickers, but he doesn't stick around for long. Such a modest guy... I wonder what he's getting up to now!

PAL Paper Mario's little brother, Paper Luigi. While Mario is searching for the Royal Stickers, you might see Luigi here and there, just lounging around in the background. If you try to peel him away like a sticker, he runs off quick as a flash. What on earth are you playing at, Luigi?

Paper Peach Series Related PaperPeachTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC Usually the Sticker Fest, sponsored by Princess Peach, is held without a problem. However, one year Bowser shows up to steal the Royal Stickers and ends up peeling off with Princess Peach! With your help, Mario must set out to stick things back in their proper place!

PAL Princess Peach is holding the Mushroom Kingdom's annual Sticker Fest to celebrate the Sticker Comet's arrival from the night sky, when Bowser turns up and totally wrecks EVERYTHING! Where's Peach been carried off to? And who's going to get her out of this sticky situation?

Paper Bowser Series Related PaperBowserTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 10

NTSC Bowser's defense team argues that, considering his latent savageness and the promises of wish-granting power, it could only be expected that Bowser would try to grab the Sticker Comet. Who could resist something like that? Bowser was just a victim of circumstance!

PAL The Sticker Fest looked super fun, so he thought he'd get up on stage. And with the Sticker Comet looking all sparkly and stuff, how could he NOT touch it?! And that's when the evil, evil Royal Sticker brought out poor Bowser's dark side. You see? Bowser was just a victim of circumstance!

Paper Kersti Series Related KerstiTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC A sticker fairy who went to the Mushroom Kingdom on the Sticker Comet, she is very strong willed. Though she appears paper thin, her heart runs deep, and she shows herself to be a loyal companion on Mario's quest to help the Mushroom Kingdom by recovering the Royal Stickers.

PAL Kersti came from the Sticker Star to help grant everyone's wishes. Mario got the sharp end of her tongue to begin with, but she quickly proves herself to be an indispensable ally on their quest to find the Royal Stickers. She may be made of paper, but she clearly has a heart of gold.

Paper Wiggler Series Related PaperWigglerTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 300 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 5

NTSC In the world of Paper Mario, even the normally quite round Wiggler becomes paper thin. Something awful happens to him when he runs into Kamek, however. Mario and Kersti are able to help pull him together, but it's not easy to forget what happened to poor Wiggler.

PAL In the world of Paper Mario, even Wigglers are paper-thin instead of their normal lumpy-bumpy selves. One such Wiggler was split into pieces by the wicked Kamek. As you can imagine, he was really chuffed when Mario and Kersti put him back together. Chuffed to bits, you might say!

Paper Gooper Blooper Series Related PaperGooperBlooperTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 2500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 100

NTSC The culprit behind the poisoning of Wiggler's forest, even this bruiser is thinned down in Paper Mario. Really, he looks more like a dried squid... But don't let this fool you—he's still plenty dangerous. He also spits poisonous ink. Grody.

PAL A villain who squirted poisonous ink all over the forest where Wiggler lives. Even in paper-thin form, he's quite the menace. He slaps with his many tentacles, almost like he's swatting flies, and that poisonous ink we mentioned earlier – he won't hesitate to squirt it right in Mario's face. Ew!

Paper Bowser (2nd Form) PAL
Series Related PaperBowserSecondFormTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 1000 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 30

NTSC The Royal Stickers can grant wishes, both good and bad. One sticker enhanced Bowser's natural greediness and rage, making him so powerful that Mario had to beat him twice in a row—the recycled Bowser even bigger and more powerful than before!

PAL The Royal Stickers grant wishes, and in the wrong hands, they can wreak all kinds of havoc. When one of them landed on Bowser, he ran riot through the Mushroom Kingdom, and even when Mario managed to beat him, he came back in an even more destructive form than before! Yikes!

Polterpup Series Related PolterpupTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 500 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 10

NTSC If you combine a puppy and a ghost, you'll get a cute little Polterpup. They seem to enjoy causing no end of trouble, but I couldn't tell you if they're enemies or just really mischievous. This big guy's a lot bigger than normal—hopefully he just wants to be friends?

PAL This little guy...or girl – who can tell? – is always finding ways to cause mischief, but it's not clear whether he's your friend, your foe, or just a crazy critter who can't decide one way or the other. Still, as much of a handful as this pup can be, he's nothing compared to Big Polterpups!

NTSC Despite Luigi's crippling fear of...well, everything, Professor E. Gadd ropes him into taking care of some unruly ghosts. Here we have four types: the small green ones are Greenies, the angry-looking red ones are Slammers, the thin blue ones are Hiders, and the big yellow ones are Gobbers. What appropriate names!

Mario Golf: World Tour Series Related MarioGolfWorldTourTrophy3DS.png Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS 800 G; A remade-from-scratch version of the Play Coin icon. 20

NTSC Looks like Mario is really on his game today! Or he just sent his ball off the course and into the trees—it's hard to tell. Getting a ball out of the rough is part of golf! It adds a bit of adventure to the game, though the undersea course in this world tour probably adds more.

PAL Mario looks like he's having a good game here! Or maybe he's just whacked his ball out of sight and into the trees. It's anyone's guess, really. Well, getting a ball out of the rough can still be fun. Things like that give the game a touch of adventure, which is something this world tour is just full of – especially the underwater course!

Mario Finale Final Smash MarioFinaleTrophyWiiU.png

NTSC Break the Smash Ball and unleash Mario's Final Smash. Mario will fire a devastating blast of fire in the direction he is facing. The attack covers a wide range and travels far, so it's best to fire this from one side of the stage to the other. The damage is impressive, and this move can actually carry foes right off the screen!

PAL When Mario gets his hands on a Smash Ball, he can activate this Final Smash. Flames spiral outwards in two intertwining streams, catching opponents in the wide blast with ease. It deals plenty of damage, and can also push foes off the screen entirely. Fire it from an elevated position to take full advantage of its vertical range!

While transformed, Bowser deals extra damage, is better at launching foes, and even gains special effects on some of his attacks. He won't flinch and can't be thrown, but he does still take damage.

PAL The definitive way to prove that Bowser's the king. This fearsome form made its debut all the way back in Melee.

PAL While any deep-sea diver would be glad to come across a sea urchin, for Mario, giant ones like this are a massive nuisance. Their large eyes may make them kind of adorable to look at, but that doesn't make their spikes any less spiky. Don't get too close unless you fancy being turned into a shish kebab!

Fighter Flies PAL
Series Related FighterFlyTrophyWiiU.png

NTSC An enemy from the original Mario Bros. Just as the name implies, they are flies that gracefully move across the stage. They jump to move around, so hit them from below when they land. Unlike other enemies, these pests get faster after recovering from being flipped, rather than when only one is left. Be careful!

Arcade: Mario Bros. (1983)
GB Advance: Super Mario Advance (06/2001)

PAL These pests come from the original Mario Bros. The name might make them sound tough, but these guys are actually kind of elegant and graceful. It's best to wait until they're on solid ground, then bop 'em from underneath to flip them over. If they get back up, though, watch out – they'll start gracefully leaping around a bit faster.

Birdo Series Related Gotten from this video

NTSC Birdo's debut wasn't in a Mario game at all but in a game called Doki Doki Panic. Originally released in Japan, a version of that game made it to the West under a different name. Mario and friends replaced the main characters, and the game was called Super Mario Bros. 2. That's how Birdo joined the Mario Bros. family!

PAL Birdo's debut wasn't in a Mario game at all, but in a game called Doki Doki Panic. Originally released in Japan, that game made its way to the West with a few changes: Mario and Co. replaced the main characters, and the title was changed to Super Mario Bros. 2. That's how Birdo joined the Mario Bros. family!

Daisy Series Related DaisyTrophyWiiU.png

NTSC She may be the princess of Sarasaland, but she doesn't exactly have the poise you might expect from royalty. Daisy is more of a headstrong, active type. That's all part of her charm, though, and rumor has it Luigi is quite smitten with her. Unlike Peach, she's only really been kidnapped once—in Super Mario Land.

Baby Luigi Series Related BabyLuigiTrophyWiiU.png

NTSC Despite missing the trademark mustache, the big nose and the L on his cap should be dead giveaways that this is Luigi! When he appeared in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, Baby Luigi surprised the other racers with his Rattle Buggy driving skills. Adult Luigi probably still remembers those days of racing glory.

PAL Since he's only a baby, he doesn't have the trademark moustache yet, but that big L on his cap and his even bigger nose make him unmistakably Luigi. In Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, his first playable outing, he zooms around the tracks in his Rattle Buggy. Do you think grown-up Luigi remembers all those escapades?

Whomp Series Related WhompTrophyWiiU.png

NTSC Is it really all that surprising that a creature named Whomp would want to dish out some pain? Another unsurprising fact: Whomps are actually good friends with Thwomps, who are also made of stone. Oh! We had a joke for this... What do you get when you cross a Whomp with a Thwomp? A headache! Ha!

N64: Super Mario 64 (09/1996)

PAL Whomps are anything but subtle. Even their name makes it clear what happens when you get too close – they throw themselves on top of you and leave you flat as a pancake. Apparently, Whomps are pretty friendly with Thwomps. Maybe it's their common interest in constantly looking angry that brought them together.

GameCube: Super Mario Sunshine (08/2002)
GameCube: Mario Party 7 (11/2005)

PAL This fellow made his debut in Super Mario Sunshine. He's been Peach's faithful aide for many years, and he even has a suitably servantly name for the job.

PAL Toadette didn't show up until Mario Kart: Double Dash!! on the GameCube, but has been helping out in games here and there ever since.

  • The Kamek, Baby Luigi, and Baby Mario trophies appear in the Mario category, even though they appear in the main Yoshi games and Mario spin-off games, though the former has recently played antagonistic roles in the mainstream Mario games and their debut game, Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, is considered by Nintendo to also be part of the main Mario series as well as the Yoshi series.
    • Strangely, Kamek's trophy also states that he appeared in Super Mario World. While the Magikoopa species did first appear in the game, Kamek didn't make his appearance until the prequel.
  • This marks the first and only time that a trophy based on Donkey Kong himself is in the Mario category, and the second time that Wario and Yoshi appear as a Mario trophy, as all three of them have Mario Kart-based trophies.
  • The Peach (Baseball) Trophy states that Princess Peach gets a break from kidnapping in Mario Super Sluggers, even though in said game, she gets kidnapped by Bowser Jr.
  • The Mario series has the most trophies in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, with 107.
  • Several trophies, like the Giga Bowser trophy and the Toadette trophy, resemble their Brawl counterparts.
    • Additionally, certain veterans' Alt. trophies, like those of Mario and Peach, resemble their Adventure or All-Star Mode trophies in Melee, albeit with a different alternate costume.
      • Mario's alternate trophy in the Wii U version resembles his Adventure Mode trophy in Melee.
      • Luigi's alternate trophy in the 3DS version resembles his Adventure Mode trophy in Melee.
      • Luigi's alternate trophy in the Wii U version resembles his Melee artwork.
      • Peach's alternate trophy in the Wii U version resembles her Adventure Mode trophy in Melee.
      • Bowser's alternate trophy in the Wii U version resembles his All-Star Mode trophy in Melee.
  • The Fighter Fly trophy states that they get faster each time they're flipped without being kicked off the stage, unlike other enemies in Mario Bros.; however, this is true with all Mario Bros. enemies. Fighter Flies just speed up more noticeably due to their hopping motion.
  • The Shy Guy + Standard Kart Trophy states that Shy Guy made his debut as a racer in Mario Kart 7. This is untrue. Shy Guy actually made his debut as a racer in Mario Kart DS, albeit only in the game's local multiplayer mode.
  • While the trophy states that Luigi is holding the Poltergust 3000, he is actually holding the Poltergust 5000, as distinguished by the green light. This error was fixed in the PAL release.[1]
  • Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is the only game where Baby Luigi appears without Baby Mario.
  • Mario's game debut in the Japanese version is listed as the arcade version of Donkey Kong, instead of Donkey Kong Classics.
  • The Poison Mushroom's game debut in the Japanese version is listed as Super Mario Bros. 2 for the Famicom Disk System.
  • The Boomerang's game debut in the Japanese version is listed as Super Mario Advance 4 Card e+, with Super Mario 3D Land listed as its other game appearance.
  • For whatever reason, the Shellcreepers, Sidesteppers, Fighter Fly, and Pipes' Japanese descriptions state that their debut was Mario Bros. on the Famicom, despite the other Mario Bros. elements descriptions stating it was for the arcade.
    • Additionally, the Shellcreeper trophy states it appeared in Super Mario Advance, but in that game’s included remake of Mario Bros., the Shellcreeper was replaced by the Spiny. However, an image of a Shellcreeper does appear on the title screen for the Mario Bros. mode, so it is still accurate. This same initially questionable game inclusion occurs on the Shellcreeper's trophy in Brawl.
  • The Metal Box trophy lists Super Mario 64 DS as its other game appearance, even though it (as well as the original game's red and blue ! Blocks) were replaced by ? Blocks in the remake.
  • Despite appearing on the background of Mario Galaxy (piloting the Starship Mario), the Lubba trophy is categorized as Series Related instead of Stage.
  • Despite appearing in Mario's moveset in both versions, the F.L.U.D.D. trophy is a Wii U exclusive trophy.
  • Kamek's trophy in the Wii U version states that when he appears in the Mushroom Kingdom U stage, he might tease the player(s) by not casting any magic at all. This is not true, as every time he appears, he will cast the spell that activates the stage transition.
  • Paper Bowser's trophy in the PAL release of 3DS version mentions "the evil, evil Royal Sticker" despite the Royal Stickers not being malevolent in nature.
  • Oddly, despite the presence of Ghosts from PAC-MAN and Find Mii as trophies in the Nintendo 3DS version, the trophy of the Ghosts from Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon does not have the title of the game parenthesized in their name in the NTSC version of the game.
