'''Samurai Goroh''' ({{ja|サムライ ゴロー}}, ''Samurai Gorō''), is a rival racer to [[Captain Falcon]] in the {{uv|F-Zero}} series of futuristic Nintendo racing games. He has featured as a collectible [[trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and more recently he has appeared as an [[Assist Trophy]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Samurai Goroh was the first F-Zero franchise update on the [[DOJO!!]], and when first revealed, his name was spelled without an "H" (Samurai Goro), but this was changed the following day.

Samurai Goroh made his first appearance in ''[[F-Zero]]''. He drives an F-Zero machine called "Fire Stingray". He later appears in ''[[F-Zero X]]'' driving the same machine. In ''F-Zero X'', the tracks are suspended above ground which allows players to fall and lose the race. It is also possible to knock other players off the track. As stated before, ''Melee's'' opening features Samurai Goroh racing against Captain Falcon. The two start ramming each other until Captain Falcon is able to knock Samurai Goroh off the track, which may be a reference to being able to knock other people off the tracks in ''F-Zero X''. Samurai Goroh driving the Fire Stingray is also retained.
