==Overview==

Two Green Koopa Troopas appear in their 8-bit forms as [[background character]]s in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Melee]]'' versions of the [[Mushroom Kingdom (SSB)|Mushroom]] [[Mushroom Kingdom (SSBM)|Kingdom]] stages. In ''[[Ultimate]]'', they have been updated to more accurately match their original sprites from ''Super Mario Bros.'' and are now wearing red shells.

In {{forwiiu}}, Koopa Troopas appear in the background of the [[Super Mario Maker]] stage riding a [[Lakitu]] cloud. Their appearance changes depending on the game style, matching their designs in ''Super Mario Bros.'', ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', ''Super Mario World'', and ''New Super Mario Bros. U''.

Koopa Troopas appear as enemies. The green and red versions appear as ground enemies in stages where Bowser's minions are present. Similar to their ''Melee'' counterparts, the Koopa Troopas can retreat into their shells when damaged or jumped on; however, they cannot harm players on contact, but they attack with a leaping headbutt when close enough. Also, the Koopa Troopas can emerge from their shells, even while their shell is moving.

;Koopa Troopa (Red)

''A turtle in the employ of Bowser. Koopas formerly traveled on four legs, but they've recently been spotted strolling on two. This has freed up their hands, allowing them to chase Mario with nets. Their adaptability must make Bowser very happy indeed. Unlike their green-shelled brethren, red ones do about-faces when they run out of road. They're a bright group.''

The Green Koopa Troopa trophy appears in both versions. In {{forwiiu}}, it is part of the ''Bowser's Minions'' [[Trophy Box]].

:{{Flag|North America}}{{GameIcon|ssb4-3ds}} ''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.''

:{{Flag|Europe}}{{GameIcon|ssb4-3ds}} ''These turtles are just as common as Goombas in Bowser's army. 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.''

:{{GameIcon|ssb4-wiiu}} ''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.''

The Red Koopa Troopa trophy is exclusive to {{for3ds}}.

:{{Flag|North America}} ''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.''

:{{Flag|Europe}} ''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.''

==Spirit==

Koopa Troopa appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a Novice-class [[support spirit]], and is featured on the {{h2|List of spirits (Super Mario series)|Standard Kart}} spirit.

*Koopa Troopa is fought on the [[Golden Plains]] stage. During the battle, Squirtle's defense will increase, referencing how a Koopa Troopa retreats into its shell rather than be destroyed by getting stomped on.

*During the Standard Kart spirit battle, Koopa Troopa uses an army of Squirtles and is fought on the [[Mario Circuit (SSB4)|Mario Circuit]] stage. During the battle, the Squirtles will favor their [[Withdraw]] special, referencing how the Green Shells are used as an item in the ''Mario Kart'' series.
