Character biographies as they appear in Super Smash Bros.

The following is a list of character biographies that appear in Super Smash Bros. The predecessor of trophies, these biographies are automatically available via the Data menu, unlocking alongside the matching character if necessary.

Mario

Although best known as the mustachioed plumber who battles the Turtle Tribe with his distinct jumping action, this internationally famous hero has also acted as a referee, a driver, and even a doctor! He's been linked to Princess Peach of Mushroom Kingdom for years, but to this day, their true relationship remains a mystery.

Luigi

Though often hidden in his brother's shadow, Luigi is, in reality, very popular.

Taller than Mario, Luigi also jumps higher. Although he didn't appear in Super Mario 64, in Mario Kart 64 he performed to the best of his ability.

For one who always seems to be in the background, he has many fans who eagerly await his appearance.

Yoshi

Yoshi is the friendly dinosaur of Yoshi's Island. He began as Mario's partner, but has since developed his own identity, and now appears in many games.

He uses his unique ability to turn whatever he swallows into an egg as his foremost attack.

Yoshis come in a rainbow of colors and are said to have a high IQ at a very early age.

Donkey Kong

Donkey Kong and Mario started off as arch-enemies, but they've patched things up in recent years.

These days, DK spends his time searching the jungle for bananas instead of kidnapping beautiful maidens.

In the past few years, other members of the Kong family have cashed in on DK's fame as well, including his favorite nephew, Diddy.

Link

Link is the valiant boy hero of "The Legend of Zelda" series in which he fights against the evil Ganon to recover the Triforce.

Though his tools may change with each adventure, his strength and righteousness remain constant.

With his trusty sword and a variety of weapons, he takes adventure head on!

Samus

Samus Aran is the toughest bounty hunter in the galaxy. Using a special suit powered by the technology of the bird people which allows her to execute daring acrobatic feats, Samus pursues the airborne life form, Metroid, throughout the universe.

Kirby

The 8-inch high Kirby hails from a distant, peaceful star.

Like his simplistic appearance, he is an easily-understood character.

True to his instincts, Kirby eats when he gets hungry and sleeps as soon as he grows tired. Nevertheless, Kirby remains a formidable opponent. In addition to his distinct flying and swallowing skills, he also has the ability to copy enemy attacks for ever-changing action.

Fox

Following in his father's footsteps as the young leader of the Star Fox Team, Fox McCloud's piloting of the super-high-performance combat ship ARWING is still fresh in our memories. His one weakness may be his difficulty earning the trust of his teammates.
