| The '''''Super Mario'' universe''' ({{ja|マリオ|Mario}}, ''Mario'') (also referred to as '''''Mario''''' or '''''Super Mario Bros.''''') refers to the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series' collection of characters, stages, and properties that hail from Nintendo's expansive and highly successful ''Mario'' video game franchise. The ''Mario'' universe is Nintendo's flagship franchise, and it is flat-out the most successful game franchise in global sales and in history (although the {{uv|Pokémon}} franchise has found even greater success when counting non-game media). The ''Mario'' universe is a franchise of fantasy video games, and the most popular games are the fantasy adventure platform games called the ''Super Mario'' games. [[Mario]] himself is Nintendo's mascot and is considered the most famous video game character in the world. Mario and his brother [[Luigi]], along with their many friends and nemeses, have appeared in dozens upon dozens of Nintendo's video games, many of them being best-sellers and several of which are considered some of the greatest games ever released. | | The '''''Mario'' universe''' ({{ja|マリオ|Mario}}, ''Mario'') refers to the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series' collection of characters, stages, and properties that hail from Nintendo's expansive and highly successful ''Mario'' video game franchise.

| As a direct result, there are more ''Mario''-themed characters, items, and properties to be found in the ''Smash Bros.'' series than any other Nintendo franchise, not the least of which are fourteen distinctive playable characters who originated from the series between the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'': [[Mario]], his alter-ego [[Dr. Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Bowser]], [[Princess Peach]] (who has [[Toad]] as an attack), [[Rosalina]] (who uses [[Luma]]s to attack), [[Bowser Jr.]] (who has the [[Koopalings]] as alternate costumes), [[Daisy]] (who functions as a clone of Peach), and even the [[Piranha Plant]]. The ''Mario'' universe is so expansive, in fact, that [[Donkey Kong]], [[Yoshi]] and [[Wario]] are considered stars of their own sub-universes: Donkey Kong, [[Diddy Kong]] and [[King K. Rool]] from the {{uv|Donkey Kong}} universe, Yoshi from the {{uv|Yoshi}} universe, and Wario from the {{uv|Wario}} universe. The {{uv|Wrecking Crew}} universe is also a sub-universe of the ''Mario'' universe, although no playable characters hail from it. It is the most heavily represented universe in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, by far, with the highest [[trophy]], [[sticker]], and [[item]] count in the series, though its number of playable characters is second to the {{uv|Pokémon}} universe (nine to ten if [[Pokémon Trainer]] is counted as three separate characters). | | As a direct result, there are more ''Mario''-themed characters, items, and properties to be found in the ''Smash Bros.'' series than any other Nintendo franchise, not the least of which are eleven distinctive playable characters who originated from the series between ''[[Brawl]]'' and ''[[Smash 4]]'': [[Mario]], his clone [[Dr. Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Bowser]], [[Princess Peach]] (who has [[Toad]] as an attack), [[Rosalina]] (who uses [[Luma]]s to attack), [[Bowser Jr.]] (who has the [[Koopalings]] as palette swaps), [[Yoshi]], [[Donkey Kong]], [[Diddy Kong]], and [[Wario]].

| | By the beginning of 1981, Nintendo had developed a series of cabinet arcade games which were moderately successful in Japan, but its efforts to market them to Western audiences had fallen flat. In the most spectacular representation of this performance, thousands of units of an arcade shooter named ''Radar Scope'', the first game [[Shigeru Miyamoto]] ever helped develop, were left sitting in warehouse storage. The president of the newly founded Nintendo of America division, Minoru Arakawa, faced financial disaster, so he pleaded with Nintendo CEO Hiroshi Yamauchi to provide him with a new game which he could install as a replacement into ''Radar Scope'' machines. Miyamoto agreed to the task of "fixing" the game so it would appeal to gamers, and instead of tweaking the original, he designed an entirely new coin-op game out of the ''Radar Scope'' hardware, and created new characters that could then be marketed and used in later games. |
| During development of ''{{iw|mariowiki|Donkey Kong|game}}'', Shigeru Miyamoto created a protagonist initially titled {{ja|オッサン|Ossan}}, before being renamed to "Jumpman." Due to the unprecedented success of this game, the character immediately became a recognizable icon of the early days of gaming, and made several more appearances afterwards. In the 1982 follow-up ''{{iw|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Jr.|game}}'', the character was officially renamed to [[Mario]], named after Nintendo of America landlord Mario Segale. This is also one of the few instances Mario is portrayed as an antagonist, with the titular Donkey Kong Jr. attempting to save his father from capture. Mario would get a starring role in 1983 with the game ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Bros.}}'' that codified many of the elements that defined the franchise afterwards. This game was the first appearance of Mario's brother [[Luigi]], established that they were brothers who dealt with pipes, and fought against enemies like bugs, turtles, and fire balls. Mario would make other appearances around this time on television, various {{uv|Game & Watch}} titles, and guest appearances in games like {{uv|Wrecking Crew}} and ''Golf''.

| [[File:Mushroomy.jpg|thumb|Mario on the [[Mushroomy Kingdom]] stage in ''Brawl'', a recreation of the famous World 1-1 from ''Super Mario Bros.'']] | | The finished product, ''[[mariowiki:Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'', became a huge success for Nintendo and moved 60,000 units by 1982. Its popularity was owed to the many differences from the maze and shooter games of the time that being the first example of a platform game with actual jumping mechanics afforded it; these included its multiple-stage structure and its visual approach to story and characterization. It is considered to be the earliest video game with a storyline that unfolded on the screen itself, with cutscenes in between levels establishing a love triangle between characters inspired by the ''Popeye'' comic. The eponymous ape [[Donkey Kong]] is the de facto villain, shown stealing away a damsel-in-distress (later given the name {{s|mariowiki|Pauline}}), and it is up to the player-character, a carpenter named "Jumpman" at the time, to save her. This was the earliest incarnation of the character that came to be known as [[Mario]], and his design's most iconic elements were necessitated by severe pixel-based graphical limitations; he was given a mustache because that was the only way to show he had a human face, and he was depicted wearing colorful overalls to show he was wearing something more defined then a shapeless blob. Mario was given his official name in Miyamoto's modestly successful 1983 arcade follow-up ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Bros.}}'', which also introduced Mario's palette-swapped brother [[Luigi]], changed his occupation from carpenter to plumber, and introduced the idea of him using strong jumping abilities to fell turtle-like enemies. |
| A sequel to ''Mario Bros.'' was put into development, this time as an exclusive to the then two year old Famicom home console. Miyamoto realized that quick bursts of content would not be enough for at-home play, and attempted to make a more substantial experience, which included long, intricate levels with branching paths and secrets. Partially inspired by {{uv|Ice Climber}} with its vertical scrolling gameplay, this game would have smooth horizontal scrolling gameplay. This game would release in 1985 as ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'', and quickly became a top seller for the system. When the Famicom was released outside of Japan as the Nintendo Entertainment System, ''Super Mario Bros.'' was bundled with the first circulation of consoles. The game is often labeled as the single most influential video game involved in not just the popularization of the side-scrolling game genre, but the direction the video game industry itself would take following the 1983 crash, and is often described as the game that began the modern era of video games. Almost all of the game's aspects have been praised on separate occasions; the precise controls, creative power-up system, and well-tuned speed and momentum mechanics came into play against a varied set of level-design obstacles and distinctive enemies, and Mario's whimsical quest through his newly established setting, the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], to rescue his love interest [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] from the dragon turtle-like [[Bowser]] was timeless. The game became the best-selling video game in history a record it held for over twenty years before being surpassed by {{uv|Wii Sports}} in 2008.

| The ''Super Mario'' franchise indisputably became Nintendo's foremost property immediately, and Mario himself earned a permanent position as the company's mascot. It became a custom to release a steady stream of ''Mario''-related titles for each and every Nintendo console and handheld launched in the company's history, and even some non-Nintendo developed systems. To date, nearly 300 games feature ''Mario'' characters in some way. Many entries into the series enjoyed a high level of success and are often among the top selling titles on any given system, mostly due to brand recognition, but also for the most part by being genuinely polished and innovative experiences that stand the test of time. The early NES and SNES Mario 2D platformers would codify what would make up games of that style, which was further innovated by ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker}}'' bring the concept of a level editor to the mainstream. The game ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'' would define how to move in 3D space with a free roaming camera and large levels to explore and find secrets, which were followed up by games like ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}'', ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}'', and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Odyssey}}''. The ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'' franchise would lay the foundation for cart racing games, and the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Party|series}}'' series would lay the foundation for party games. Other notable entries include the game ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars}}'', which itself inspired other Mario-centric role playing games such as the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Paper Mario|series}}'' and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario & Luigi|series}}'' series, [[Dr. Mario]] as its own series of puzzle games, and a host of sports games like ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Golf|series}}'', ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Tennis|series}}'', and the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games}}'' series.
| | Over the course of the North American video game industry recession that lasted from 1983 to 1985, Nintendo released the Famicom (the Western equivalent of which was the NES), which eventually found success as a hardware platform in its own right. Miyamoto began development of a successor to ''Mario Bros.'' for the console, and the game went through many ideas before settling as a side-scrolling platformer with a very clearly defined diversity to its gameplay elements, onscreen characters, and setting. The 1985 release of ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'' is labeled by many as the single most influential video game involved in not just the popularization of the side-scrolling game genre, but the direction the video game industry itself would take following the 1983 crash, and is often described as the game that began the modern era of video games. Almost all of the game's aspects have been praised on separate occasions; the precise controls, creative power-up system, and well-tuned speed and momentum mechanics came into play against a varied set of level-design obstacles and distinctive enemies, and Mario's whimsical quest through his newly established setting, the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], to rescue his love interest [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] from the dragon turtle-like [[Bowser]] was timeless. The game became the best-selling title in the history of the industry, a record it held for over twenty years. |

| Outside of videogames, Mario continues to be a juggernaut in merchandising. Mario's face and name have been featured on countless products including toys, table top games, household items and stationery, apparel, collectible items, feature films, animated series, print media like books and manga, and theme parks. Mario was even used to promote the Olympic games in 2016 and 2020. The Mario brand is estimated to be worth over 36 billion dollars in net revenue.
| | The ''Super Mario'' franchise indisputably became Nintendo's foremost property immediately, and Mario himself earned a permanent position as the company's mascot. It became a custom to release a steady stream of ''Mario''-related titles for each and every Nintendo console and handheld launched in the company's history, and as of 2013, over 200 games featuring ''Mario'' characters in some way, shape or form have been released. While many entries into the series enjoyed a high level of success, none of the subsequent ''Mario'' games necessarily had anywhere near as much influence on video game genres as ''Super Mario Bros.'' itself had, but there is one clear exception: ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'' was the core platform-based series' inaugural transition into the third dimension, released in the Americas in September 1996, with a free-roaming, non-linear design and an overarching collection aspect. A launch title for the Nintendo 64, it became the system's best-selling game and is given much of the credit for allowing the Nintendo 64 to attain the success that it had. The game set many precedents for the 3D platformer genre that would forever reappear in 3D platformers to follow, including player-character movement precisely dictated by the controller's analog joystick, a hub-based level design where each level accessible from the hub was a self-contained area containing a large variety of objectives to complete, and the first-ever "free" camera in a game with 3D environments, where the camera could be controlled independently of the character and was not rigidly fixed either to the character's position or a specific point in the level itself. Numerous other ''Mario'' platformers, particularly ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}'', ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World}}'' and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}'', are also frequently cited as some of the greatest games ever made; however, they were nowhere as genre-defining as ''Super Mario Bros.'' and ''Super Mario 64'', instead garnering praise for innovating on and refining the formulas set by the first 2D and 3D installments. |

| The ''Mario'' setting itself most often stars [[Mario]], a free-spirited and heroic man with strong jumping abilities who is, by this point at least, a celebrity in the colorful and cartoon-like {{iw|mariowiki|Mushroom Kingdom}}. Mario is often accompanied by his taller and more cowardly brother [[Luigi]], who is occasionally mocked in-universe for being less famous than his sibling, but also goes on a few adventures of his own. His love interest and the ruler of the kingdom, [[Princess Peach|Princess "Peach" Toadstool]], regularly gets taken away by Mario's trouble-making arch-nemesis, [[Bowser]], who is depicted as a menacing figure and/or a comedic one depending on the game. The most common setup for a ''Mario'' game is that Mario goes on an obstacle-laden quest to defeat Bowser and save Peach. ''Mario'' games rarely devote focus to lore or characterization; Mario, his world, and the established personalities that are his numerous allies and enemies represent Nintendo's primary "tileset" for creating colorful games of various genres that prioritize the quality of the gameplay itself, and ''Mario'' games sometimes satirize some conventions in video games like being self-aware of their own game logic and intentionally breaking them to subvert expectations. | | The ''Mario'' setting itself most often stars {{s|mariowiki|Mario}}, a free-spirited and heroic man with strong jumping abilities who is, by this point at least, a celebrity in the colorful and cartoon-like {{s|mariowiki|Mushroom Kingdom}}.

| The ''Mario'' franchise is so big, and its side characters so thoroughly established, that several of these characters are the stars of their own semi-regular releases. [[Donkey Kong]], of which the Mario franchise is technically a spin-off, ironically was demoted to a spin-off and has starred alongside a simian supporting cast of his own in the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Donkey Kong Country|series}}'' series that, for a time, were primarily handled by British company Rareware. A pet-like dinosaur companion for Mario named [[Yoshi]] was introduced in the SNES launch title ''Super Mario World'', and has been the focus of the self-titled ''{{iw|mariowiki|Yoshi|series}}'' series. Mario's timid and cowardly brother Luigi would occasionally receive a starring role of his own, primarily with the acclaimed ''{{iw|mariowiki|Luigi's Mansion|series}}'' series. A mischievous anti-hero equivalent to Mario who debuted in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins}}'' for the Game Boy, [[Wario]], took over the ''Mario Land'' series with the renamed ''{{iw|mariowiki|Wario Land|series}}'' series and ''{{iw|mariowiki|WarioWare|series}}'' series that deliver a more outward parody of video game trends. [[Princess Peach]] has also occasionally taken the spotlight with the [[Nintendo DS]] game ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Princess Peach}}'' and [[Nintendo Switch]] game ''{{iw|mariowiki|Princess Peach Showtime!}}''. | | The many games of ''Mario'' have explored a large variety of video game genres, and one genre the series seems to avoid making a purely ''Mario''-centric title for is the fighting genre, a gap the series regularly fills in with its guaranteed appearances in every installment in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' crossover series: |
| | |
| | *'''2D Platforming''': The genre most closely associated with the ''Mario'' brand, which was begun by ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'' for the NES. These are linear side-scrollers that follow the same basic formula, for the most part (the Western ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 2}}'' played very differently because it was a ''Mario''-series conversion of an unrelated game named ''{{s|mariowiki|Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic}}''). While there was an extended period where new ''Mario'' games were no longer two-dimensional platformers, a sub-series focused on the official return to the 2D platforming formula, ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros.}}'', began releasing for each of the most recent Nintendo platforms, starting with the Nintendo DS in 2006. |
| | |
| | *'''3D Platforming''': The seminal ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'' paved the way for 3D ''Mario'' platformers on each of the Nintendo home consoles that followed the Nintendo 64. In some ways, these are the "biggest" ''Mario'' releases; ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}'' for the GameCube incorporated a radical gameplay twist in the form of the [[F.L.U.D.D.]] spraying device on Mario's back; a pair of ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}'' games on the Wii placed all of the action on tightly spherical settings; and the most recent games in this genre are ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D Land}}'' for the Nintendo 3DS and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D World}}'' for the Wii U, both of which exchange the free-roaming world aspect for a more contained linear level design. |
| | |
| | *'''Racing''': All high-profile ''Mario'' titles in this genre belong to an officially recognized sub-series called ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}''. Like several other ''Mario'' releases, the first ''Mario'' game in this genre, ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Kart}}'' for the SNES, is credited for essentially popularizing a new genre in the video game industry, in this case the weapon and obstacle-based kart racing sub-genre. It is an unbroken Nintendo tradition to release one ''Mario Kart'' game for each and every Nintendo home console and handheld system. As of the most recent generation in gaming, the most recent entries are ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 7}}'' for the Nintendo 3DS and ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 8}}'' for the Wii U. |
| | |
| | *'''Party''': Yet another genre the ''Mario'' brand influenced, the first installment in the long-running ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Party|series}}'' series was released for the Nintendo 64 in 1999. The most recent entries are ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Party: Island Tour}}'' for the Nintendo 3DS and ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Party 10}}'' for the Wii U. In the ''Mario Party'' series, multiple players roll the [[mariowiki:Dice Block|dice]] to move characters across a board like in a board game, then compete in one of many dozens of available mini-games to amass a high {{s|supermariowiki|coin}} total and purchase a means of winning, typically [[supermariowiki:Stars (Mario Party series)|Stars]], among other things. |
| | |
| | *'''RPG''': ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars}}'' was a result of an out-of-the-ordinary partnership between Nintendo and Square, developers of ''{{uv|Final Fantasy}}'', grafting the ''Mario'' aesthetic and reflex-based gameplay onto a JRPG format. This was the starting point for what would become a fair number of ''Mario''-centric JRPGs that differentiate themselves from other titles in the genre by incorporating elements of timing and reflex to some of the standard battle commands. These are some of the only ''Mario'' games that feature a heaver slant towards storytelling; additionally, almost every game introduces a diverse cast of original characters to rival that of the main ''Mario'' universe. ''Mario'' has since established two entirely separate RPG-based sub-series: ''{{iw|mariowiki|Paper Mario|series}}'', where all characters are presented as flat paper-thin illustrations occupying three-dimensional areas, and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario & Luigi|series}}'', which is centered on cooperative combat between Mario and Luigi. While Mario himself is present and playable in all RPG titles, he is frequently teamed up with other party members as battle partners and/or alternate playable characters, including Luigi, Peach, Bowser, and numerous original characters. The most recent ''Mario'' RPGs are ''{{s|mariowiki|Paper Mario: Sticker Star}}'' and ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario & Luigi: Dream Team}}'', both for the Nintendo 3DS. A crossover of the two series, ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam}}'', is set to be released in January 2016 for the Nintendo 3DS. |
| | |
| | *'''Puzzle''': ''{{s|mariowiki|Dr. Mario}}'' was a ''Tetris''-style puzzle game for NES that starred [[Dr. Mario|Mario in a Doctor's costume]] throwing pills to combat differently colored viruses. There have been some occasional puzzle games following this, but an official puzzle-based subseries entitled ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario vs. Donkey Kong|series}}'' began on Game Boy Advance, which pays homage to Mario's original rivalry with Donkey Kong. The most recent release is ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move}}'' for the Nintendo 3DS' eShop. |
| | |
| | *'''Sports''': ''Mario'' has a long-standing tradition of applying its aesthetic to a variety of team sports-based games and incorporating specific ''Mario''-flavored twists. The two longest-running ''Mario Sports'' sub-series are ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Golf|series}}'' and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Tennis|series}}'', both of which are regularly developed by {{s|mariowiki|Camelot Software Planning}}. ''Mario Sports'' games have also been based on [[mariowiki:Mario Strikers Charged|soccer]], [[mariowiki:Mario Super Sluggers|baseball]], [[mariowiki:Mario Hoops 3-on-3|basketball]], and [[mariowiki:Mario Sports Mix|more]]. The [[mariowiki:Mario & Sonic (series)|Olympic Games]] series have received one game per season starting in 2008, and in an unprecedented twist, marking the first ever crossover between ''Mario'' and its former "rival" franchise, ''[[Sonic (universe)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]''. |

| *[[File:MarioIcon(SSB).png|50px|right|link=Mario (SSB)]]'''{{SSB|Mario}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Mario is the mascot of Nintendo, and probably the most well-known video game character in the world. He first appeared in the arcade game ''Donkey Kong'' as the main protagonist, and since then, has appeared as the main hero in the ''Mario'' franchise. He has appeared in many Nintendo games spanning a large variety of genres. In almost every game that he is playable in, he is the most balanced character. This is also true in ''Smash 64'', as he acts as a balanced starting character. Mario's appearance and moves are based of his appearance in ''Super Mario 64''. An exception is his [[neutral special]], which is his iconic [[Fireball]] attack from his sidescroller games. His [[up special]] is [[Super Jump Punch]], a rising, multi-hitting punch based on Mario jumping and hitting a [[mariowiki:Coin Block|coin block]]. His [[down special]] is [[Mario Tornado]], a spinning attack loosely on the {{iw|mariowiki|Spin Jump}} from ''Super Mario World''.{{clr}} | | *[[File:MarioIcon(SSB).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB|Mario}}''': Mario is the undisputed mascot of Nintendo and is the most well-known video game character in the world. He has appeared in many Nintendo games spanning a large variety of genres and in almost every appearance he is playable as the most balanced character of that game. This is also true in ''Smash 64''. While he does not have glaring weaknesses, the fact that he is designed to have no especially powerful strengths either makes him an easy character to play as for both casual and hardcore players. Mario's appearance and moves are based of his appearance in ''Super Mario 64''. An exception is his [[Neutral Special]], which is his iconic [[Fireball]] attack from his sidescroller games. |
| *[[File:LuigiIcon(SSB).png|50px|right|link=Luigi (SSB)]]'''{{SSB|Luigi}}''' ([[Unlockable character|Unlockable]]): Luigi is Mario's younger, lankier twin brother who acts as the co-star and deuteragonist of the ''Mario'' franchise. He first appeared in the arcade game ''Mario Bros.'' as a green palette swap of Mario. Since then, he has started to gain his own personality and abilities. In ''Smash 64'', he appears as an unlockable character. His appearance is based off of ''Mario Kart 64'', which was his last major appearance. Luigi is a [[clone]] character of Mario, fittingly enough. However, he possesses his trademark superior jump height and inferior traction, and some of his moves have unique attributes. While his neutral special is also a [[Fireball]] attack, Luigi's are green, and they travel in a straight line, unaffected by gravity. His up special is also [[Super Jump Punch]], but instead of being multi-hit, it is a single hit that can cause high damage and knockback if timed correctly. His down special is [[Luigi Cyclone]], a variation of Mario Tornado with only two hits and different knockback.{{clr}} | | |
| | *[[File:LuigiIcon(SSB).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB|Luigi}}''': Mario's younger, lankier brother in green rather than red has always been relegated to the role of co-star in the ''Mario series''. In many ''Mario'' games where Luigi appears, he is a selectable alternative character to Mario, such as in the ''Mario Kart'' and ''Mario Party'' games. His appearance is based off ''Super Mario World'', which was his last major appearance. In ''Smash 64'', Luigi appears as an unlockable fighter. Here, he is a clone character of Mario, fittingly enough. However some of his moves have unique attributes. For instance, his [[Neutral Special]] is also a [[Fireball]] attack. The differences are that Luigi's Fireballs are green, and they travel in a straight line, unaffected by gravity. |

He is fought in Stage 9, on his own stage, [[Meta Crystal]]. His moveset is identical to Mario's, with minor differences. Metal Mario barely flinches to ordinary attacks and is almost unaffected by throws at low percentages. In addition, he has extremely fast falling speed due to his weight.

It does just that as an item in ''Melee'', turning the character temporarily into a living metal model of themselves and increasing his resiliency but also his dropping weight. |

In many of its appearances, the Super Mushroom increases whoever grabs it in size and extends his life meter by 1. In ''Melee'', touching it enlarges the character to make it bulkier and stronger for a duration of time. It looks nearly identical to its polar opposite, the Poison Mushroom, so if both items can appear in a match, it is hard for the player to tell what kind of mushroom it is when one of these two mushrooms appear, so grabbing it may be a risk. |

This would provide Mario with a Metal Cap, allowing him to change into [[Metal Mario]], giving him much greater weight and power. In ''Melee'', albeit without the cap; characters temporarily into a living metal model of themselves, increasing their resiliency but also their dropping weight, and making them mute.

| | *'''Green [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s''': An upgraded version of the Koopa Troopa, these sport wings and fly around in set patterns, and when Mario jumps on them in midair, they lose their wings and convert into Koopa Troopa enemies, in effect giving these enemies additional life.

| *[[File:MarioIcon(SSBB).png|50px|right|link=Mario (SSBB)]]'''{{SSBB|Mario}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Mario, the face of gaming, was given a slight character model redesign for his appearance in ''Brawl'' as his appearance is based on his current design from the later ''Mario'' games, such as ''Luigi's Mansion'', ''Super Mario Sunshine'' and ''Mario Party 4''. He is also armed with [[F.L.U.D.D.]] this time around, replacing the [[Mario Tornado]] from the previous games. Like the rest of the ''Brawl'' roster, Mario has a new [[Final Smash]]. His is a massive fireball that expands as it engulfs the stage, called the [[Mario Finale]]. Mario is ranked 31st on the tier list, his balance an impediment when others excel in many areas.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:LuigiIcon(SSBB).png|50px|right|link=Luigi (SSBB)]]'''{{SSBB|Luigi}}''' ([[Unlockable character|Unlockable]]): Luigi returns as an unlockable veteran once again. He remains similar to his brother, but has been further differentiated from him with several new attacks. In addition, Luigi still retains his [[Luigi Cyclone]], giving him another special move unique from Mario. Like Mario, his appearance is also based on his current design from the later ''Mario'' games, such as ''Luigi's Mansion'' and ''Mario Party 4''. Luigi's Final Smash, [[Negative Zone]], creates a huge circular field of energy that has random effects on enemies caught inside. He is ranked 28th on the tier list, his bizarre physics both a boon and a curse.{{clr}}

| *[[File:PeachIcon(SSBB).png|50px|right|link=Peach (SSBB)]]'''{{SSBB|Peach}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Peach reappears from ''Melee''. Her model has been updated to match her current design introduced in ''Super Mario Sunshine''. Her new Final Smash, [[Peach Blossom]], involves Peach blowing numerous kisses that damage all enemies and put them to sleep while a vast amount of peaches fall from the sky. Though she has fallen from her high ''Melee'' showing to 19th on the tier list, she is still a solid choice and is still the highest ranking of the non-subseries ''Mario'' characters.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:BowserIcon(SSBB).png|50px|right|link=Bowser (SSBB)]]'''{{SSBB|Bowser}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Bowser also makes a return after first appearing in ''Melee''. His appearance is based on his current design from the later ''Mario'' games, such as ''Luigi's Mansion'', ''Super Mario Sunshine'' and ''Mario Party 4''. His newfound Final Smash is [[Giga Bowser Transformation]], in which he transforms himself to [[Giga Bowser]] for 10 seconds to increase his power substantially. Bowser is considered the least viable of the ''Mario'' universe characters, even when subseries are taken into account, clocking in at 33rd on the tier list. Giga Bowser (in both ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'') is part of Bowser's Final Smash. So since he appears as a semi playable character and as a Final Smash trophy for ''Brawl'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', he leaves the boss roster until his appearance in [[Super Smash Bros.

When Petey is defeated, the most damaged cage is broken, and the princess inside is saved. The unsaved one is then turned into a trophy by Wario. | | |

| *[[File:Icon-rainbowcruisemelee.gif|right|link=Rainbow Cruise]]{{gameIcon|SSBM}}'''[[Melee Stages]]: [[Rainbow Cruise]]''' ([[Starter stage|Starter]]): A returning stage from ''Melee''. It is basically unaltered.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:Icon-delfinoplaza.gif|right|link=Delfino Plaza]]'''[[Delfino Plaza]]''' ([[Starter stage|Starter]]): Based on the main hub area from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}''. Taking place at first on a platform, the stage flies around and through the plaza area and touches down at certain parts, where the current area in the plaza itself then becomes the ground for the stage for a period of time, and then the platform swoops in and carries the player to another area. The stage's movement mechanics are similar to ''Melee''’s {{SSBM|Mute City}}.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:Icon-mushroomykingdom.gif|right|link=Mushroomy Kingdom]]'''[[Mushroomy Kingdom]]''' ([[Starter stage|Starter]]): While the two previous ''Smash Bros.'' games have featured Mushroom Kingdom stages based on the original ''Super Mario Bros.'', Mushroomy Kingdom is a full recreation of {{iw|mariowiki|World 1-1|Super Mario Bros.}} from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', apparently aged since the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' from a vibrant green land into a barren desert. However, while the previous Mushroom Kingdom stages were in a pixel-art style, the Mushroomy Kingdom stage is a completely enhanced version of the stage, even featuring a fitting mix of the original Overworld theme. From time to time, {{iw|mariowiki|World 1-2|Super Mario Bros.}}, an underground level, will load, instead of World 1-1.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:Icon-mariocircuit.gif|right|link=Mario Circuit (SSBB)]]'''{{SSBB|Mario Circuit}}''' ([[Starter stage|Starter]]): This stage is taken from the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'' series, and takes place at an intersection of a figure-8 track that's a bit like {{iw|mariowiki|Figure-8 Circuit}} from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart DS}}'', with [[Shy Guy]]s racing through it on karts. Players can be damaged if they make contact with any passing Shy Guys.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:Icon-luigismansion.gif|right|Luigi's Mansion]]'''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''' ([[Unlockable stage|Unlockable]]): Luigi's Mansion is based on [[mariowiki: Luigi's Mansion|the game of the same name]].

| |
| *[[File:Icon-mariobros.gif|right|link=Mario Bros.]]'''[[Mario Bros.]]''' ([[Unlockable stage|Unlockable]]): A recreation of the classic ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Bros.}}'' game, complete with enemies. A stage that almost completely throws the rules of ''Smash Bros.'' out the window, KOing opponents normally here is notoriously difficult due to the way the stage is arranged. Instead, the enemies are a player's main means of scoring KOs by using them as projectile weapons.{{clr}}

| <small>'''''Bold italics''''' denote an item new to the ''Smash Bros.'' series.</small><br>
| |
| All items except for the [[Red Shell]] return. All these items are classified within the main ''Mario'' series. For information on the Hammer and Spring items, see the ''Donkey Kong'' universe page.
| |
| *'''[[Fire Flower]]''': The Fire Flower returns from the previous ''Smash Bros.'' games, redesigned to match its appearance in recent ''Mario'' titles. It remains functionally identical to previous ''Smash'' titles. However, thanks to the new physics of ''Brawl'', it can now be used while moving around and jumping. | |
| *'''{{b|Starman|item}}''': Returns from ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'', now using the jingle from the original ''Super Mario Bros.''
| |
| *'''[[Green Shell]]''': The Green Shell returns from ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'', essentially unchanged.
| |
| *'''[[Bob-omb]]''': The Bob-omb returns from ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'', essentially unaltered as a very potent throwing weapon.
| |
| *'''[[Freezie]]''': The Freezie returns from ''Melee'' without significant changes.
| |
| *'''[[Super Mushroom]]''': Returns from ''Melee'' without significant changes, and returns as a mode in [[Special Brawl]].
| |
| *'''[[Poison Mushroom]]''': The Poison Mushroom returns from ''Melee'' without significant changes, and also returns as a mode in [[Special Brawl]].
| |
| *'''[[Metal Box]]''': The Metal Box returns from ''Melee'' with the same basic function and purpose. It is also a mode on [[Special Brawl]].
| |
| *'''''[[Golden Hammer]]''''': The Golden Hammer is an item in ''Brawl'', originating from the game ''Wrecking Crew''. It acts similarly to a regular Hammer, but it improved in every way. It is more powerful, is swung faster, and can even let the user float in midair. However, it is exceptionally rare. Also, like the Hammer's [[Headless Hammer]], the Golden Hammer can become the [[Golden Squeaky Hammer]], which is useless and a liability the character is trapped into "using" until it disappears (but at least its hammer head does not fall off so that opponents can pick it up and throw it at the player).
| |
| *'''''[[Hothead]]''''': A new item hailing from ''[[Super Mario World]]''. This fiery sun-like entity travels across and around platforms and walls, damaging what it collides with, both in its original game and in ''Brawl'' when picked up and thrown by a character. The Hothead does not harm the character that activates it.
| |
| *'''''[[Banana Peel]]''''': A staple "weapon" from the ''Mario Kart'' series which racers typically drop behind them so that racers behind run over them and spin out and get slowed down. In ''Brawl'' when it is thrown on the ground by a character, his opponents will slip on it and fall down if they step on it, getting slightly damaged and being temporarily incapacitated.
| |
| *'''''[[Lightning Bolt]]''''': Hailing from the ''Mario Kart'' series, it does exactly what it does in the series, shrinking all characters on the stage except for the one who used it. However, it occasionally backfires, and shrinks the player who activated it. It also may shrink every player.
| |
| *'''''[[Soccer Ball]]''''': A soccer ball that when hit, will go flying covered in flames, dealing major damage to opponents hit by it. This behavior originates from ''Super Mario Strikers''.
| |
| *'''''{{b|Peach|item}}''''': Although debuting in ''Brawl'', it can't be considered a part of the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|''Super Smash Bros.'' universe]] as it only comes after Peach's Final Smash, [[Peach Blossom]]. It heals 5% damage if eaten.

| {{main|List of SSBB Music (Super Mario Bros. series)|List of SSBB Music (Mario Kart series)|List of SSBB Music (Nintendo series)}}
| | In total, when sub-franchises are accounted for, 12 of the 41 playable non-custom stages are based off the various ''Mario''-related games. Only the 6 stages with the Super Mushroom icon are listed below. For the ''Yoshi'' stages, see [[Yoshi's Island (SSBB)]] and [[Yoshi's Island (SSBM)]] (for info on the ''Melee'' stage). For the ''Donkey Kong'' stages, see [[75m]], [[Rumble Falls]], and the ''Melee'' stage [[Jungle Japes]]. For the ''Wario'' stage, see [[WarioWare, Inc.]] (the only Wario stage in the whole game). |
| | |
| By far, the ''Mario'' series has the most music tracks in the game (not counting tracks based on musical motifs that originated in the ''Smash Bros.'' series). Only tracks from the main ''Mario'' series are listed here (even then, not all are classified in-game under the ''Super Mario Bros.'' series).
| |
|
| |
|
| ====Original Tracks====
| | *[[File:Icon-delfinoplaza.gif|right|link=Delfino Plaza]]'''[[Delfino Plaza]]''': Based on the main hub area from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}''.

The stage's movement mechanics are similar to ''Melee''’s {{SSBM|Mute City}}.{{clear}} |

| |

It is used on the {{iw|mariowiki|World 1-2|Super Mario Bros.}} variant of the Mushroomy Kingdom stage.
| |
| *'''{{SSBBMusicLink|Super Mario Bros.|Underground Theme (Super Mario Land)}}''': A remix of the underground theme from the Game Boy hit ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Land}}''. It is used on the World 1-2 variant of the Mushroomy Kingdom stage.

There are pillars in the mansion that can be destroyed to make the whole mansion fall apart. The Mansion eventually comes back together again.{{clear}} |
| *{{GameIcon|SSBM}}'''{{SSBBMusicLink|Super Smash Bros.|Rainbow Cruise (Melee)}}''': A remix of [[Rainbow Ride]]'s music from ''Super Mario 64'', taken directly from ''Melee''. It is the theme for the Rainbow Cruise stage. | |

| |
|
| |
|
| ====Source Tracks====
| | *[[File:Icon-mushroomykingdom.gif|right|link=Mushroomy Kingdom]]'''[[Mushroomy Kingdom]]''': While the two previous ''Smash Bros.'' games have featured Mushroom Kingdom stages based on the original ''Super Mario Bros.'', Mushroomy Kingdom is a full recreation of [[supermariowiki:World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', apparently aged since the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' from a vibrant green land into a barren desert. However, while the previous Mushroom Kingdom stages were in a pixel-art style, the Mushroomy Kingdom stage is a completely enhanced version of the stage, even featuring a fitting mix of the original Overworld theme. From time to time, [[supermariowiki:World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]], an underground level, will load, instead of World 1-1.{{clear}} |
| *'''{{SSBBMusicLink|Super Mario Bros.|Delfino Plaza}}''': Taken directly from ''Super Mario Sunshine'', this was the music that played in the hub overworld of {{iw|mariowiki|Delfino Plaza}}, with the "Yoshi" woodblock rhythm inserted at a point. It is the theme for the Delfino Plaza stage. | |
| *'''{{SSBBMusicLink|Super Mario Bros.|Ricco Harbor}}''': This is the music that plays in Ricco Harbor, the second level of ''Super Mario Sunshine''. This track is taken directly from said game, and it is used on the Delfino Plaza stage.
| |
| *'''{{SSBBMusicLink|Super Mario Bros.|Main Theme (Super Mario 64)}}''': The music that plays on many levels (with several variations) from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'', this is taken directly from the same game. It is used on the Delfino Plaza stage.
| |
| *'''{{SSBBMusicLink|Mario Kart|Rainbow Road}}''': Taken directly from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart: Double Dash!!}}'', this was the music that played on {{iw|mariowiki|Rainbow Road|GCN}}, the final track in both this title as well as all other ''Mario Kart'' games excluding the retro courses featured in ''Mario Kart DS'' and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart Wii}}''. It is used on the Mario Circuit stage.
| |
| *'''{{SSBBMusicLink|Nintendo|Power-Up Music}}''': Taken directly from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Wrecking Crew}}'', this was the theme that played when Mario grabbed the Magic Hammer. It is used on the Mario Bros. stage, and also plays when any character grabs a [[Golden Hammer]].
| |
|
| |
|
| ====Victory Theme====
| | *[[File:Icon-mariocircuit.gif|right|link=Mario Circuit (SSBB)]]'''{{SSBB|Mario Circuit}}''': This stage is taken from the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart|series}}'' series, and takes place at an intersection of a figure-8 track that's a bit like {{s|mariowiki|Figure-8 Circuit}} from ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart DS}}'', with [[Shy Guy]]s racing through it on karts. Players can be damaged if they make contact with any passing Shy Guys.{{clear}} |
| *'''[[Victory theme#Mario Victory Theme|Victory! Mario Series]]''': An orchestrated version of the "level complete" fanfare from the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' | |

| ===Trophies=== | | *[[File:Icon-mariobros.gif|right|link=Mario Bros (stage)|Mario Bros.]]'''[[Mario Bros. (stage)|Mario Bros.]]''': A recreation of the classic ''{{s|supermariowiki|Mario Bros.}}'' game, complete with enemies. A stage that almost completely throws the rules of ''Smash Bros.'' out the window, KOing opponents normally here is notoriously difficult due to the way the stage is arranged. Instead, the enemies are a player's main means of scoring KOs by using them as projectile weapons.{{clear}} |

| ==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''==
| |
| As with past installments, the ''Mario'' franchise is well represented in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. The four primary fighters from ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' — [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Peach]] and [[Bowser]] — were confirmed to return in no more than three months after the games' official showcase at E3 2013. After a hiatus of new representation in ''Brawl'', the series received newcomers in [[Rosalina]] & [[Luma]] and [[Bowser Jr.]], as well as the return of ''Melee'' fighter [[Dr. Mario]]. Even with the conclusion of [[DLC]] in February 2016, the ''Mario'' franchise still has the most playable fighters, excluding the series-related characters [[Donkey Kong]], [[Diddy Kong]], [[Yoshi]], and [[Wario]], who all return as well.
| |
| | |
| ===Fighters===
| |
| *[[File:MarioIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Mario (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Mario}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Mario was revealed alongside the games at June 11, 2013, expectedly. While accented, his design is less detailed than in ''Brawl'' and closely reflects his more recent appearances in the ''Super Mario'' series such as ''Super Mario 3D Land''. Mario himself has received significant buffs in the transition from ''Brawl'' and his frequent usage in competitive play reflects this.{{clr}} | |
| *[[File:LuigiIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Luigi (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Luigi}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Luigi was revealed during the [[Nintendo Direct]] of August 2013, as part of Nintendo's "Year of Luigi" commemoration. Like his brother, his design is less detailed and reflects the more recent ''Mario'' games. Luigi's jump is now his trademark {{iw|mariowiki|Scuttle}} that debuted in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 2}}'', and his [[Final Smash]] is now the [[Poltergust 5000]] from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon}}''. Unlike the last three ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, where he had to be unlocked, Luigi appears as a starter character in both versions of the game.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:PeachIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Peach (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Peach}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): The confirmation of Peach's return was announced on the official website in September 2013, on the anniversary of ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'' original release. The detailing in her dress is brighter and has a more simplistic design, closer to her appearances in the ''Mario'' series. General aesthetics and moveset changes were made that reflect Peach's character, such as the inclusion of a pink ribbon in her up smash and a small rainbow in her up aerial.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:BowserIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Bowser (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Bowser}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Bowser, confirmed alongside Mario at E3 2013, has arguably received the greatest amount of changes out of all the returning ''Mario'' veterans. His dinosaurian, hunched posture from previous games is replaced with an upright stance. In correspondence with these changes, Bowser now uses his legs in many of his attacks as well as when dashing, as opposed to the scuttling animation from previous titles. Bowser's greater mobility and improved approach options have significantly benefited his utility in competitive play.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:DrMarioIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Dr. Mario (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Dr. Mario}}''' ([[Unlockable character|Unlockable]]): Originally, Dr. Mario was to be an alternate costume for Mario, but it was decided during development that the fans of his original moveset would appreciate the full character's inclusion. As a result, Dr. Mario returns from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. He is the first fighter to return after an absence between ''Smash Bros.'' installments, followed by the [[DLC]] fighters {{SSB4|Mewtwo}} and {{SSB4|Roy}}. While his moveset was recreated faithfully, the changes made to Mario in ''Brawl'' make Dr. Mario more distinct from the fighter he was cloned from, and various tweaks done through the equipment mechanic also result in him functioning like a stronger, yet slower Mario. His Final Smash is a variation of the [[Mario Finale]] that uses giant [[Megavitamin]]s, appropriately dubbed [[Doctor Finale]].{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:RosalinaIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Rosalina & Luma (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Rosalina & Luma}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): The mysterious Rosalina debuted in 2007 as an important side character in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}''. She allied with Mario to defeat Bowser, who stole the stars she had used to power her {{iw|mariowiki|Comet Observatory}}. She is a celestial caretaker of the cosmos, who watches over the stars with her many star-shaped companions, the [[Luma]]s. Since her debut, Rosalina has received widespread acclaim and has had many reoccurring appearances in the platforming ''Super Mario'' games and the ''Mario Kart'' series. Rosalina - accompanied with '''Luma''' — was announced for ''SSB4'', the first newcomer unveiled after the E3 2013 showcase. Her character embodies a "puppet" mechanic, where one who controls Rosalina also controls Luma. Her unique physics and attributes are closely inspired by ''Super Mario Galaxy''. She is a starter character in both versions of the game, which is unique considering that Rosalina has had to be unlocked in every previous game she was playable in.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:BowserJrIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right|link=Bowser Jr. (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Bowser Jr.}}''' (3DS: [[Unlockable character|Unlockable]]; Wii U: [[Starter character|Starter]]): Bowser Jr. is Bowser's spoiled son, introduced in the 2002 title ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}''. Like his father, Bowser Jr. has the unquenchable desire to defeat Mario. He has become a reoccurring antagonist in the ''Mario'' series. This is especially prevalent in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' subseries, where he often appears as the primary villain while Bowser takes a secondary role. In the subseries he pilots his {{iw|mariowiki|Junior Clown Car}}, a flying, emotive vehicle that is stuffed with unorthodox weaponry. It is this interpretation of Bowser Jr. that appears in ''SSB4'', where he pilots his Clown Car during battle and utilizes its bizarre gizmos. Uniquely, the Clown Car receives less damage when hit than Bowser Jr. himself, allowing for unique styles of defensive play. What's also special about Bowser Jr. is that he is not alone — instead of [[Alternate costume (SSB4)|alternate colors]], Bowser Jr. can be swapped with one of the seven '''[[Koopalings]]''', who also use their own personal versions of the Junior Clown Car. Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings were leaked as playable characters during the ESRB leaks and were officially confirmed during The 50-Fact Extravaganza. He is an unlockable fighter in ''Smash for Nintendo 3DS'', but is a starter character in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''.{{clr}}

| ===Stages===
| |
| *[[File:PeachsCastle64IconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Peach's Castle]]{{GameIcon|SSB}}'''[[Peach's Castle (64)]]''' ([[DLC]]): a floating arena staged above the grounds of the [[mariowiki:Princess Peach's Castle|titular palace]] from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}''. The platforms are structured like a {{iw|wikipedia|pinball table}}, with a [[bumper]] at its apex and light shield-shaped structures in the uppermost corners. A broad, masonic platform shifts back-and-forth at the base. This stage is large enough to accommodate [[8-Player Smash]] and is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 2 (3DS) and Level 6 (Wii U) of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Peach and Bowser. Its [[Ω form]] is a floating platform like [[Final Destination]]. Peach's Castle was released as downloadable content on July 31, 2015 for both the 3DS and Wii U versions. It is one of four stages from the original ''Super Smash Bros.'' to be in ''SSB4'', with the other three being [[Kongo Jungle]], [[Hyrule Castle]], and {{SSB|Dream Land}}.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:SuperMarioMakerIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Super Mario Maker]]'''[[Super Mario Maker]]''' ([[DLC]]): an area composed of randomly generated set pieces based on concepts from the titular title – ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker}}''. As in ''Mario Maker'', the assets used derive from from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'', ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}'', ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario World}}'', and ''{{iw|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. U}}''. The setup varies widely, sometimes existing as a floating platform, other times developing walk-off platforms like [[Wii Fit Studio]]. This stage is large enough to accommodate [[8-Player Smash]]. Its [[Ω form]] is a floating platform like [[Final Destination]]. Super Mario Maker was released as downloadable content on September 30, 2015 for both the 3DS and Wii U versions.{{clr}}
| |
| | |
| ====''for Nintendo 3DS''====
| |
| Stages exclusive to the 3DS version. According to game director [[Masahiro Sakurai]], the unlockable {{uv|Kirby}} stage {{SSB4|Dream Land}} was originally going to be based on ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Land}}''.<ref name="Sakurai505">{{cite web |url=https://www.sourcegaming.info/2016/05/11/sakuraifanmisconception505/ | |

| |
| *[[File:MushroomyKingdomIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Mushroomy Kingdom]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}}'''[[Mushroomy Kingdom]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): a now abandoned wasteland from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'' It is a scrolling stage faithfully based on {{iw|mariowiki|World 1-1|Super Mario Bros.}}. Consequently, Mushroomy Kingdom's main platforms are {{iw|mariowiki|Pipe}}s and breakable {{iw|mariowiki|Brick Block}}s. As in ''Super Mario Bros.'', {{iw|mariowiki|? Block}}s are found on the stage and will release an item if struck. Unlike in ''Brawl'', there is no underground level. This is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 2 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Peach and Bowser. Dr. Mario is [[unlock]]ed on this stage. Its [[Ω form]] is columnar.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:3DLandIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=3D Land]]'''[[3D Land]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): a scrolling stage based on various locations from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D Land}}'', beginning in an area similar to {{iw|mariowiki|World 1-1|Super Mario 3D Land}} at the base of Peach's Castle. Unlike other scrolling stages, it shifts to other stage types. The stage leads to a seaside valley of shifting platforms, similar to isolated stages like [[Battlefield]] or traveling stages like Isle Delfino. {{iw|mariowiki|Skewer}}s rise from the sea below and destroy the platforms as it pushes through the valley, before arriving at a giant {{iw|mariowiki|Warp Pipe}} that transitions back to the beginning of the stage. This is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 6 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Bowser Jr., who is also [[unlock]]ed on this stage. Its [[Ω form]] is a floating platform like [[Final Destination]].{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:GoldenPlainsIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Golden Plains]]'''[[Golden Plains]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): a spacious field based on motifs from ''{{iw|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. 2}}'' covered with {{iw|mariowiki|Gold Coin}}s that are collected on contact. Accumulating 100 Coins turns the character [[gold]] and increases their attack power. Though not based on one specific location, it is largely derivative of levels from {{iw|mariowiki|World 1|New Super Mario Bros. 2}}. It is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 2 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Peach and Bowser. Its [[Ω form]] is columnar.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:RainbowRoadIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Rainbow Road]]'''[[Rainbow Road]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): an extraterrestrial arena staged on the [[mariowiki:Rainbow Road|titular race course]] from the ''Mario Kart'' series. This [[mariowiki:Rainbow Road (3DS)|incarnation of Rainbow Road]] comes from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart 7}}''. Like Mario Circuit, it is a traveling stage littered with hazardous, kart-driving Shy Guys. This is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 7 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Rosalina & Luma. Its [[Ω form]] is a floating platform like [[Final Destination]]. Rainbow Road was teased prior to its unveiling in reveal trailer for Rosalina & Luma, "Comet Observatory".{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:PaperMarioIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Paper Mario]]'''[[Paper Mario]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): a handcrafted stage based on locations from the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Paper Mario|series}}'' series. Like [[Castle Siege]], it is a transitional stage that cycles through three different phases. Each one has its own hazards, platform layouts, set order, and is based on a unique location. The three phases are:
| |
| ::#'''Hither Thither Hill''': a grassy plain from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Paper Mario: Sticker Star}}''. A large windwill provides secondary rotating platforms. Towards the end of this phase, a large [[mariowiki:Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)#Things|Fan Thing]] is erected on the left side of the stage and blows powerful gusts of wind. Paper Mario’s columnar [[Ω form]] is staged in this phase.
| |
| ::#'''S.S. ''Flavion''''': a seafaring vessel from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door}}''. Due to the limitations of the 3DS system, the paper-made sea is not swimmable. The ship is occasionally approached by the giant {{iw|mariowiki|Blooper}} from ''The Thousand-Year Door'' or is blasted into the sky by the {{iw|mariowiki|Whale|character}} from the original ''{{iw|mariowiki|Paper Mario}}''.
| |
| ::#'''Bowser's Sky Castle''': Bowser's flying fortress from ''Sticker Star''. The main platform is a precarious, tilting bust of Bowser with two small rising platforms to its left and right.{{clr}}
| |
| | |
| ====''for Wii U''====
| |
| Stages exclusive to the Wii U version. Unused data left in the game's files suggests that a stage based on ''{{iw|mariowiki|Dr. Mario}}'' was planned but ultimately scrapped. Like [[Wily Castle]] and [[Gaur Plain]], it would have included the {{iw|mariowiki|Virus}}es as [[boss]]es.
| |
| *[[File:DelfinoPlazaIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Delfino Plaza]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}}'''[[Delfino Plaza]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): staged on floating platforms that travels to various locations on the [[mariowiki:Delfino Plaza|titular island plaza]] from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}''. Like [[Skyloft]], the primary platform brings the fight to various areas around town, such as the {{iw|mariowiki|Shine Gate}}. While all visited locales have widely varied platform arrangements, the main floating platform cycles through basic [[Battlefield]]-like layouts. It is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 7 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Mario and Luigi. Only its [[Ω form]] can accommodate [[8-Player Smash]], which is a floating platform like [[Final Destination]].{{clr}}

| *[[File:MarioCircuitBrawlIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mario Circuit (SSBB)]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}}'''[[Mario Circuit (SSBB)|Mario Circuit (Brawl)]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): an arena staged on the [[mariowiki:Mario Circuit|titular race course]] from the ''Mario Kart'' series. It is not based on any specific incarnation of Mario Circuit, but it most closely resembles the {{iw|mariowiki|Figure-8 Circuit}} from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart DS}}''. Its assets derive from ''Mario Kart DS'' and its predecessor ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart: Double Dash!!}}'' Like the other ''Mario Kart'' stages, the course is littered with hazardous, kart-driving Shy Guys that will rundown opponents. Shy Guys can be knocked off the road if attacked at the right time. The stage is large enough to accommodate [[8-Player Smash]]. It is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 6 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Peach and Bowser. Its [[Ω form]] is an unused section of track risen high above the raceway.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:LuigisMansionIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Luigi's Mansion]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}}'''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): staged in the titular haunted estate from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Luigi's Mansion}}''. The arena consists of the mansions interior and exterior. The floors of the mansion serve as platforms. While there are no hazards on this stage, the columns that support the mansion can be destroyed, partially dismantling the mansion, releasing [[Boo]]s, and removing platforms. The mansion eventually reforms. The stage is large enough to accommodate [[8-Player Smash]]. It is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 7 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Luigi. Its [[Ω form]] is columnar and is staged on the mansion's roof.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:MushroomKingdomUIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mushroom Kingdom U]]'''[[Mushroom Kingdom U]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): staged in [[mariowiki:File:NSMBUMushroomKingdom.png|western regions]] of the Mushroom Kingdom from ''{{iw|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. U}}''. It is a transitional stage like Castle Siege and Paper Mario. Kamek uses his magic to make phases transition. There are four phases: {{iw|mariowiki|Acorn Plains}}, {{iw|mariowiki|Rock-Candy Mines}}, {{iw|mariowiki|Meringue Clouds}}, and {{iw|mariowiki|Slide Lift Tower}}. Each phase has unique layouts and hazards. However, the order that the phases occur is random. Some hazards intentionally overlap, such as the sprouting of a giant beanstalk or the falling of giant icicles. Nabbit occasionally appears and will kidnap nearby opponents that are vulnerable, although he can be stunned and KOed by anyone's attacks, even while kidnapping someone. It is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 6 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Peach and Bowser. Only its [[Ω form]] can accommodate [[8-Player Smash]], which is columnar and staged in Acorn Plains.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:MarioGalaxyIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mario Galaxy]]'''[[Mario Galaxy]]''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): a spacious arena staged on a [[mariowiki:Gateway Galaxy|grassy planetoid]] from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}''. [[mariowiki:Airship|Bowser's Airships]], {{iw|mariowiki|Starshroom}}s, and the {{iw|mariowiki|Starship Mario}} from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy 2}}'' fly in the background among neighboring {{iw|wikipedia|celestial bodies}}. {{iw|mariowiki|Star Bit}}s rain onto the stage like {{iw|wikipedia|falling star}}s and burst on impact. There are no hazards on this stage, but due to the planetoid’s unique shape, [[gravity]] is distortedly curved. It is large enough to accommodate [[8-Player Smash]]. This is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 1 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Rosalina & Luma. Its [[Ω form]] is a floating hemisphere with normal gravity.{{clr}}
| |
| *[[File:MarioCircuitIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mario Circuit (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Mario Circuit}}''' ([[Starter Stage|Starter]]): an arena staged on the [[mariowiki:Mario Circuit (MK8)|titular race course]] from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart 8}}''. Like Rainbow Road, it is a traveling stage littered with hazardous, kart-driving Shy Guys. The Möbius strip-shaped racecourse does not curve like a normal raceway because it has {{iw|mariowiki|anti gravity}} segments, resulting in occasional unorthodox platform placements where the road is above the stage. In some places, Shy Guys drive on walls or ceilings. The course weaves around Peach's Castle and {{iw|mariowiki|Mario Motors}} garages. It is large enough to accommodate [[8-Player Smash]]. This is one of the possible stages to appear in Level 2 of [[All-Star Mode]] as a [[home stage]] for Bowser Jr. Its [[Ω form]] is a spacious floating platform like [[Final Destination]]. It was one of the few stages based on a Wii U-exclusive title.{{clr}}

| ===Items=== | | ===Items=== |
| {{main|Items}}
| | All these items are classified within the main ''Mario'' series. For information on the Hammer and Spring items, see the ''Donkey Kong'' universe page. |
| <small>'''''Bold italics''''' denotes an item or Assist Trophy new to the ''Smash Bros.'' series.</small>
| | *'''[[Banana Peel]]''': A staple "weapon" from the ''Mario Kart'' series which racers typically drop behind them so that racers behind run over them and spin out and get slowed down. In ''Brawl'' when it is thrown on the ground by a character, his opponents will slip on it and fall down if they step on it, getting slightly damaged and being temporarily incapacitated. |
| *'''[[Fire Flower]]''' (shooting): a fiery plant from ''Super Mario Bros.'' Wielding it allows the fighter to erupt flames from its floral disk, although prolonged usage of the flower causes the flames to get smaller and eventually die. When it spawns, the Fire Flower slowly falls to the ground and sways back-and-forth, like in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games. | | *'''[[Bob-omb]]''': The Bob-omb returns from ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'', essentially unaltered as a very potent throwing weapon. |
| *'''[[Super Star]]''' (status): a bouncing, traveling star from ''Super Mario Bros.'' that grants temporary invincibility on contact.
| | *'''[[Fire Flower]]''': The Fire Flower also returns from the previous ''Smash Bros.'' games without notable alteration in function or purpose. However, thanks to the new physics of ''Brawl'', it can now be used while moving around and jumping. |
| *'''[[Green Shell]]''' (throwing): the discarded shell of a [[Koopa Troopa]] from ''Super Mario Bros.'' that trails along the ground when tossed. Unlike in ''Brawl'', its proportions more accurately reflect the modern design of the Koopas' shells. [[Red Shell]]s appear in [[Smash Run]] with an identical function. | | *'''[[Freezie]]''': The Freezie returns from ''Melee'' without significant changes. |
| *'''[[Bob-omb]]''' (throwing): a sentient bomb from ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. When it spawns, it will sit idle unless picked up. If left waiting too long, its key will begin to turn and the bomb will begin to walk until it detonates. | | *'''[[Golden Hammer]]''': The Golden Hammer is an item in ''Brawl'', originating from the game ''Wrecking Crew''. It acts similarly to a regular Hammer, but it improved in every way. It is more powerful, is swung faster, and can even let the user float in midair. However, it is exceptionally rare. Also, like the Hammer's [[Headless Hammer]], the Golden Hammer can become the [[Golden Squeaky Hammer]], which is useless and a liability the character is trapped into "using" until it disappears (but at least its hammer head does not fall off so that opponents can pick it up and throw it at the player). |
| *'''[[Freezie]]''' (throwing): a sentient crystal of ice from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Bros.}}'' that [[frozen|freezes]] any opponents it is tossed at. Unlike in ''Brawl'', it does not slide off of [[ledge]]s, and it will freeze any fighters who actively attack it instead of picking it up.
| | *'''[[Green Shell]]''': The Green Shell returns from ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'', essentially unchanged. |
| *'''[[Super Mushroom]]''' (status): a traveling red mushroom from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'' that causes the users to ''grow'' on contact. This increases the damage output, range, and [[knockback]] of their attacks at the expense of a bigger [[hurtbox]]. | | *'''[[Hothead]]''': A new item hailing from ''[[Super Mario World]]''. This fiery sun-like entity travels across and around platforms and walls, damaging what it collides with, both in its original game and in ''Brawl'' when picked up and thrown by a character. The Hothead does not harm the character that activates it. |
| *'''[[Poison Mushroom]]''' (status): a traveling red mushroom from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels}}'' that causes the users to ''shrink'' on contact. Unlike the other returning items in the game, the Poison Mushroom's design has not changed to reflect its recent pink-spotted purple appearance in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D Land}}''. | | *'''[[Lightning Bolt]]''': Hailing from the ''Mario Kart'' series, it does exactly what it does in the ''Mario Kart'' series, shrinking all characters on the field except for the one who used it. However, it occasionally backfires, and shrinks the player who activated it. It also may shrink every player. |
| *'''[[Metal Box]]''' (status): a special type of block from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'' that turns the user into their [[metal]] form. In this state the user does not flinch very easily and is very strong, at the cost of being incredibly heavy.
| | *'''[[Metal Box]]''': The Metal Box returns from ''Melee'' with the same basic function and purpose. It is also a mode on [[Special Brawl]]. |
| *'''[[Golden Hammer]]'''<ref name=universe group=note>This character or item debuted in a game from a different universe.</ref> (battering): a rare hammer from {{uv|Wrecking Crew}}. Like the regular [[Hammer]], the Golden Hammer sets the user in a locked state of constantly whacking the hammer. The duration of the attack is much shorter than it was in ''Brawl''. While normally very powerful, there is chance of the hammer being a harmless, squeezable toy that leaves the fighter wielding it vulnerable. Despite formal acknowledgement of a ''Wrecking Crew'' series, the Golden Hammer is still classified as a ''Mario'' item. | | *'''{{b|Peach|item}}''': Although debuting in ''Brawl'', it can't be considered a part of the [[Super Smash Bros. (universe)|''Super Smash Bros.'' universe]] as it only comes after Peach's Final Smash, [[Peach Blossom]]. It heals 5% damage if eaten. |
| *'''[[Hothead]]''' (throwing): a sentient ball of flames from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario World}}'' that travels along the platform it was thrown to. It does not damage the user and grows bigger and faster if it makes contact with [[fire]] or [[electric]] attacks. | | *'''[[Poison Mushroom]]''': The Poison Mushroom returns from ''Melee'' without significant changes, and also returns as a mode in [[Special Brawl]]. |
| *'''[[Banana Peel]]''' (throwing): discarded fruit skin from ''Super Mario Kart''. Tossing it at an opponent causes them to [[trip]]. With the removal of random tripping, it is one of the few instances in the game where fighters can legitimately slip. It alternatively could be tossed on the ground as a potential trip-causing trap. It is also part of {{SSB4|Diddy Kong}}'s moveset. | | *'''{{b|Starman|item}}''': Returns from ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee'' essentially unaltered. |
| *'''[[Lightning]]''' (status): a bolt of electricity from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Kart}}''. Touching the item either shrinks all of the user's opponents, the user themselves, or everyone.
| | *'''[[Super Mushroom]]''': Returns from ''Melee'' basically unaltered in function and purpose. |
| *'''[[Soccer Ball]]''' (special): a seemingly generic ball that cannot be grabbed, but when hit, will fly across the stage as a dangerous, inflamed projectile. This attribute comes from the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Strikers|series}}'' games.
| |
| *'''''[[POW Block]]''''' (throwing): a destructive block from ''Mario Bros.'' that launches grounded opponents into the air when hit or thrown, much like the POW Blocks in the {{SSB|Mushroom Kingdom}} and [[Mario Bros.]] stages. It shrinks after each consecutive hit and can be hit a total of three times before disappearing. | |
| *'''''[[Fire Bar]]''''' (battering): a new battering weapon based on the spinning bars of flame from ''Super Mario Bros.'' Every second time it makes contact with an opponent, it loses a fireball. The greatest knockback and damage output is at the base of the bar.
| |
| *'''''{{b|Bullet Bill|item}}''''' (transformation): a sentient bullet item from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart DS}}''. It spawns on stage as a small bullet that can be picked up. When "thrown", the user transforms into a large Bullet Bill and flies across the stage. | |
| *'''''{{b|Grass|item}}''''' ([[container]]): pluckable red stalks from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 2}}''. Upon pressing the attack button, the grass is plucked and with it comes a randomly selected item. If the item can be held, it automatically is in the character's hand. If the item is used by touching it, such as a Super Mushroom, it instantly takes effect.
| |
| *'''''[[Super Leaf]]''''' (status): a tanooki leaf from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}''. When equipped, the user sprouts raccoon ears and a ringed tail. It allows the user to float in mid-air like {{SSB4|Peach}}. During development, it potentially was also going to allow users to strike opponents with the tail, but this concept was scrapped. When fluttering, the floating sound effect from ''Super Mario 3D Land'' plays. | |
| *'''''[[Spiny Shell]]''''' (throwing): a spiny, blue Koopa shell from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart 64}}'' that homes in and strikes an opponent when tossed. Its design is based on its appearance in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart 7}}'' and ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario Kart 8}}''.
| |
| *'''''{{b|Boomerang|item}}''''' (throwing): a blue boomerang from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D Land}}'' that can be tossed and return to the user after going a certain distance. When caught, its power increases. Boomerangs can be caught by opponents. | |
|
| |
|
| ====Assist Trophies==== | | ===Music=== |
| *'''[[Hammer Bro.]]''': an armored turtle from ''Super Mario Bros.'' that hops around and tosses hammers at opponents. It does not harm the summoner. Its design has been simplified to reflect its appearance in recent ''Mario'' titles. It also appears as an enemy in Smash Run.{{clr}}
| | ''See [[List of SSBB Music (Super Mario Bros. series)]], and [[List of SSBB Music (Mario Kart series)]] |
| *'''[[Lakitu & Spinies]]''': Lakitu is a cloud-riding turtle from ''Super Mario Bros.'' that flies to the top of the stage and drops Spinies onto opponents. It does not harm the summoner. Lakitu travels faster than it did in ''Brawl'', making it more useful. They also appear as enemies in Smash Run.{{clr}}
| | See also ''[[List of SSBB Music (Donkey Kong series)|Donkey Kong]]'', ''[[List of SSBB Music (WarioWare, Inc. series)|WarioWare, Inc.]]'', ''[[List of SSBB Music (Yoshi series)|Yoshi]]'' and ''[[List of SSBB Music (Nintendo series)|Nintendo]]'' (which features some tracks originating from Mario games)'' |
| *'''[[Waluigi]]''': [[Wario]]'s mischievous partner from the ''Mario'' series. He dashes at a random opponent on stage and stomps them into the ground. After accumulating enough damage, he launches the opponent away with his tennis racket. He does not harm the summoner. He is the only Assist Trophy that does not also appear as an enemy in Smash Run. When Waluigi was unveiled during the "Smash Direct" of April 2014, he was presented as a {{uv|Wario}} Assist Trophy. This is notable because Waluigi had never appeared in a ''Wario'' title and Wario himself was not yet confirmed for ''SSB4''.{{clr}}
| |
| *'''''[[Chain Chomp]]''''': a monster from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}'' that resembles a toothy ball-and-chain. It lunges and chews on opponents within range of its chain, which is tied down by a post. Its post can be damaged by opponents and broken, releasing the Chomp onto the stage briefly before disappearing. It also appears as an enemy in Smash Run.{{clr}}
| |
|
| |
|
| ====[[Smash Tour]] items====
| | By far, the ''Mario'' series has the most music tracks in the game (not counting tracks based on musical motifs that originated in the ''Smash Bros.'' series).

|
| ====[[Smash Run]] enemies==== | | ===Trophies=== |
| Enemies exclusive to the 3DS version. They appear in Smash Run.
| | {{main|List of SSBB trophies (Super Mario Bros. series)}} |
| *'''[[Goomba]]''': an aggressive fungal being from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'' that charges at opponents. It can be defeated by jumping on its head. It previously appeared as an enemy in ''[[Melee]]''{{'}}s {{b|Mushroom Kingdom|Adventure Mode}} and ''[[Brawl]]''{{'}}s [[Subspace Emissary]].
| | {| |
| *'''[[Koopa Troopa]]''': a bipedal turtle-like creature from ''Super Mario Bros.'' that will headbutt nearby opponents. Attacking it causes it to retract into its shell, which can then be used as a projectile. It previously appeared as an enemy in ''Melee''{{'}}s Mushroom Kingdom and ''Brawl''{{'}}s Subspace Emissary. There are two variants of Koopa Troopa: | | |- valign=top |
| **'''Green Koopa Troopa''': a Koopa with a green carapace that will walk off ledges. | | | |
| **'''Red Koopa Troopa''': a Koopa with a red carapace that does ''not'' walk off ledges. | | *{{SSBB|Mario}} |
| *'''[[Koopa Paratroopa]]''': a winged Koopa Troopa from ''Super Mario Bros.'' that will headbutt nearby opponents. Attacking it causes its wings to fall off. It previously appeared as an enemy in ''Melee''{{'}}s Mushroom Kingdom and ''Brawl''{{'}}s Subspace Emissary. There are two variants: | | *[[Mario Finale]] |
| **'''Green Koopa Paratroopa''': a Paratroopa with green carapace that hovers either horizontally or vertically in a set path. | | *{{SSBB|Bowser}} |
| **'''Red Koopa Paratroopa''': a Paratroopa with red carapace that bounces on the ground with its fluttering wings. | | *[[Giga Bowser]] |
| *'''[[Hammer Bro.]]''': an armored turtle-like creature from ''Super Mario Bros.'' that hops around and tosses hammers at opponents. Like in ''Super Mario Bros.'', it can shift between platforms.

| *'''{{b|Bullet Bill|enemy}}''': a sentient bullet from ''Super Mario Bros.'' launched from the Bill Blaster. Like a missile, it will often lock-on to nearby opponents and explode on contact.

| *'''[[Shy Guy]]''': a masqueraded figure from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 2}}'' that run towards opponents with flailing arms, causing damage on contact. Kart-driving Shy Guys also appear as hazards on the Rainbow Road, Mario Circuit, and Mario Circuit (Brawl) stages. There are four different variants in Smash Run: | | *[[Princess Daisy (disambiguation)|Striker Daisy]] |
| **'''Red Shy Guy''': a Shy Guy in red robes and blue shoes. It has the strongest attacks and drops Attack stat boosts when defeated. | | *{{b|Paper Mario|disambiguation}} |
| **'''Blue Shy Guy'''<ref name=universe group=note/>: a Shy Guy in cyan robes and purple shoes. It has the strongest defense and drops Defense stat boosts when defeated.
| | *Paper Luigi |
| **'''Yellow Shy Guy'''<ref name=universe group=note/>: a Shy Guy in yellow robes and green shoes. It has the highest jump and drops Jump stat boosts when defeated. | | *Paper Bowser |
| **'''Green Shy Guy'''<ref name=universe group=note/>: a Shy Guy in green robes and brown shoes. It is the speediest Shy Guy and drops Speed stat boosts when defeated. | | *Paper Peach |
| *'''[[Chain Chomp]]''': a metallic monster from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}'' that resembles a toothy ball-and-chain. It lunges and chews on opponents within range of its chain, which is tied down by a post. Its post can be damaged by opponents and broken, releasing the Chomp onto the stage briefly before disappearing. | | *Wedding Bowser |
| *'''[[Flame Chomp]]''': a metallic monster from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' that is trailed by a tail of fire. It releases the fireballs that make up its tail as projectiles. When it runs out of fireballs, the Chomp shuffles towards the nearest opponent and explodes. | | *Wedding Peach |
| *'''[[Spike Top]]''': a spiked, beetle-like creature from ''Super Mario World'' that scuttles along the floor, walls, and ceilings of the Smash Run arena. Its shell protects it from projectiles, and the namesake spike on its carapace protects it from downward blows. | | *[[Goomba]] |
| *'''[[Big Goomba]]''': a large variety of Goomba from ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. It charges towards nearby opponents like regular Goombas, but is a lot more powerful. It takes multiple jumps to defeat it. It previously appeared as an enemy in ''Brawl''{{'}}s Subspace Emissary. | | *[[Koopa Troopa]] (Green) |

| ====Outfits==== | | ==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''== |
| *{{Head|Mii Brawler|g=SSB4|s=24x24px}}''' [[Toad|Toad Outfit]]''' ([[DLC]]): The outfit is based on Toad, a recurring ''Mario'' character that debuted in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' The costume was released with a corresponding hat as [[downloadable content]] on September 30, 2015. The color of the vest depends on the Mii's default color. The costume changes depending on the Mii's gender, with a male being bare chested underneath the vest and the female having an undershirt.
| | As with past installments, the ''Mario'' franchise is well represented in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. The four primary fighters from ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' — [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Peach]] and [[Bowser]] — where confirmed to return in no more than three months after the games' official showcase at E3 2013. After a hiatus of new representation in ''Brawl'', the series received newcomers in [[Rosalina]] and [[Bowser Jr.]], as well as the return of ''Melee'' fighter [[Dr. Mario]]. Even with the conclusion of [[DLC]] in February 2016, the ''Mario'' franchise still has the most playable fighters, excluding the series-related characters [[Donkey Kong]], [[Diddy Kong]], [[Yoshi]] and [[Wario]], who all return as well. |
|
| |
|
| *{{Head|Mii Gunner|g=SSB4|s=24x24px}}''' [[Geno|Geno Outfit]]''' ([[DLC]]): The outfit is based on Geno, a playable ally from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars}}''. He has been heavily requested to be a full playable fighter by fans since the development of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. The costume was released with a corresponding hat as downloadable content on December 16, 2015 to correspond with the release of {{SSB4|Cloud}} and the [[Chocobo|Chocobo Hat]]. An official Mii based on Geno's likeness can be downloaded via QR code on the official site. | | ===Characters=== |
| | *[[File:MarioIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB4|Mario}}''': Mario was revealed alongside the games at June 11, 2013, expectedly. While accented, his design is less detailed than in ''Brawl'' and closely reflects his more recent appearances in the ''Super Mario'' installments. The character himself has received significant buffs in the transition from ''Brawl'' and his frequent usage in competitive play reflects this. |
| | *[[File:LuigiIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB4|Luigi}}''': Luigi was revealed during the [[Nintendo Direct]] of August 2013, as part of Nintendo's "Year of Luigi" commemoration. Like his brother, his design is less detailed and reflects the more recent ''Mario'' games. Luigi's jump is now his trademark flutter jump that debuted in ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 2}}'', and his [[final smash]] is now the [[Poltergust 5000]] from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon}}''. Unlike the last three ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, where he had to be unlocked, Luigi appears as a starter character in both versions of the game. |
| | *[[File:PeachIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB4|Peach}}''': The confirmation of Peach's return was announced on the official website in September 2013, on the anniversary of ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Bros.}}'' original release. The detailing in her dress is brighter and has a more simplistic design, closer to her appearances in the ''Mario'' series. General aesthetics and moveset changes were made that reflect Peach's character, such as the inclusion of a pink ribbon in her up smash and a small rainbow in her up aerial. |
| | *[[File:BowserIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB4|Bowser}}''': Bowser, confirmed alongside Mario at E3 2013, has arguably received the greatest amount of changes out of all the returning ''Mario'' veterans. His dinosaurian, hunched posture from previous games is replaced with an upright stance. In correspondence with these changes, Bowser now uses his legs in many of his attacks as well as when dashing, as opposed to the scuttling animation from previous titles. Bowser's greater mobility and improved approach options have significantly benefited his utility in competitive play. |
| | *[[File:DrMarioIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB4|Dr. Mario}}''': Originally, Dr. Mario was to be an alternate color for Mario, but it was decided during development that the fans of his original moveset would appreciate the full character's inclusion. As a result, Dr. Mario returns from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. He is the first fighter to be absent in between ''Smash Bros.'' installments, followed by the [[DLC]] fighters {{SSB4|Mewtwo}} and {{SSB4|Roy}}. While his moveset was recreated faithfully, the changes made to Mario between ''Melee'' and ''SSB4'' makes Dr. Mario more distinct from the fighter he was cloned from. His Final Smash is a variation of the [[Mario Finale]] that uses giant [[Megavitamin]]s, appropriately dubbed [[Doctor Finale]]. |
| | *[[File:RosalinaIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB4|Rosalina & Luma}}''': The mysterious Rosalina debuted in 2007 as an important side character in ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}''. She allied with Mario to defeat Bowser, who stole the stars she had used to power her {{s|supermariowiki|Comet Observatory}}. She is a celestial caretaker of the cosmos, who watches over the stars with her many star-shaped companions, the [[Luma|Lumas]]. Since her debut, Rosalina has received widespread acclaim and has had many reoccurring appearances in the platforming ''Super Mario'' games and the ''Mario Kart'' series. Rosalina - accompanied with '''Luma''' — was announced for ''SSB4'', the first newcomer unveiled after the E3 2013 showcase. Her character embodies a "puppet" mechanic, where one who controls Rosalina also controls Luma. Her unique physics and attributes are closely inspired by ''Super Mario Galaxy''. She is a starter character in both versions of the game, which is unique considering that Rosalina has had to be unlocked in every previous game she was playable in. |
| | *[[File:BowserJrIcon(SSB4-U).png|50px|right]]'''{{SSB4|Bowser Jr.}}''': Bowser Jr. is Bowser's spoiled son, introduced in the 2002 title ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}''. Like his father, Bowser Jr. has the unquenchable desire to defeat Mario. He has become a reoccurring antagonist in the ''Mario'' series. This is especially prevalent in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' subseries, where he often appears as the primary villain while Bowser takes a secondary role. In the subseries he pilots his {{s|supermariowiki|Junior Clown Car}}, a flying, emotive vehicle that is stuffed with unorthodox weaponry. It is this interpretation of Bowser Jr. that appears in ''SSB4'', where he pilots his Clown Car during battle and utilizes its bizarre gizmos. Uniquely, the Clown Car receives less damage when hit than Bowser Jr. himself, allowing for unique styles of defensive play. What's also special about Bowser Jr. is that he is not alone — instead of [[Alternate costume (SSB4)|alternate colors]], Bowser Jr. can be swapped with one of the seven '''[[Koopalings]]''', who also use their own personal versions of the Junior Clown Car. Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings were leaked as playable characters during the ESRB leaks and was officially confirmed during The 50-Fact Extravaganza. He is an unlockable fighter in ''Smash for Nintendo 3DS'', but is a starter character in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. |

| | ====Costumes==== |
| | *'''[[Toad|Toad Outfit]]''' ([[Mii Brawler|Brawler]]): The outfit is based on Toad, a reoccurring ''Mario'' character that debuted in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' The costume was released with a corresponding hat as [[downloadable content]] on September 30th, 2015. The costume changes depending on the Mii's gender, with a male having a blue vest and the female having a red vest and an undershirt. An official [[Mii]] based on Toad's likeness can be downloaded via QR code on the official site. |
| | *'''[[Geno|Geno Outfit]]''' ([[Mii Gunner|Gunner]]): The outfit is based on Geno, a playable ally in ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars}}'', developed by [[Square Enix]]. He has been heavily promoted as a full playable fighter by fans since the development of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. The costume was released with a corresponding hat as downloadable content on December 16th, 2015 to correspond with the release of [[Cloud (SSB4)|Cloud]] and the [[Chocobo|Chocobo Hat]]. Like Toad, an official Mii based on Geno's likeness can be downloaded via QR code on the official site. |
| | |
| | ===Assist Trophy=== |
| | *'''[[Hammer Bro.]]''': The Hammer Brother returns as an Assist Trophy, functioning as it did ''Brawl''. Much like the playable characters, its design has been simplified to reflect the aesthetics it has in the recent ''Super Mario'' titles. |
| | *'''[[Lakitu & Spinies]]''': Also returning from ''Brawl'', Lakitu & Spinies retain their distinct, 8-bit design from the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' It functionally now travels faster, making it more useful. |
| | *'''[[Chain Chomp]]''': Chain Chomp is a newcoming assist trophy that debuted in ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}''. This menacing, dog-like being is nearly indestructible and will lunge at opponents, biting into them multiple times if within range of its short chain. The post can be damaged by opponents and be broken, released the Chomp onto the battlefield briefly before disappearing. |
| | *'''[[Waluigi]]''': [[Wario|Wario's]] mischievous partner from the ''Mario'' series, Waluigi appears to function similarly to the way he did in ''Brawl'', where he dashes at a random opponent on stage and stomps them into the ground. After racking up enough damage, he'll launch the opponent away with his tennis racket. |

| | *[[File:SuperMarioMakerIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Super Mario Maker]]'''[[Super Mario Maker]]''': A stage based on ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Maker}}''. It is randomly generated each match.{{clr}} |
| | |
| | ===={{for3ds}}==== |
| | *[[File:3DLandIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=3D Land]]'''[[3D Land]]''': A scrolling stage based on ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D Land}}''. The players fight through both an area based on {{s|mariowiki|World 1-1|Super Mario 3D Land}} from said game as well as an area taking place on spinning platforms suspended above water and spiked pillars that destroy the platforms.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:GoldenPlainsIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Golden Plains]]'''[[Golden Plains]]''': A stage based on ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. 2}}''. The stage is filled with coins, and by collecting 100 coins, a character becomes a gold version of themselves and can dish out more damage.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:RainbowRoadIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Rainbow Road]]'''[[Rainbow Road]]''': {{s|mariowiki|Rainbow Road}} - in its numerous incarnations - is a recurring racing course in the ''Mario Kart'' series. Here it appears as it did in ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 7}}''. The stage is cruise-type, taking place on a central rainbow platform which flies through the entire course, landing in certain locations. Shy Guy racers can be found on the stage, colliding with players.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:PaperMarioIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Paper Mario]]'''[[Paper Mario]]''': A stage based on several locations from the ''{{iw|mariowiki|Paper Mario|series}}'' games, including {{s|supermariowiki|Hither Thither Hill}} from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Paper Mario: Sticker Star}}'' and the {{s|supermariowiki|S.S. Flavion}} from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door}}''.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:MushroomyKingdomIconSSB4-3.png|75px|right|link=Mushroomy Kingdom]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}} '''[[Mushroomy Kingdom]]''': The sole returning stage on the Nintendo 3DS. It remains unchanged, although its underground variant, World 1-2, has been removed.{{clr}} |
| | |
| | ===={{forwiiu}}==== |
| | *[[File:MushroomKingdomUIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mushroom Kingdom U]]'''[[Mushroom Kingdom U]]''': A stage based on ''{{s|mariowiki|New Super Mario Bros. U}}''; its setting will change among multiple variants when [[Kamek]] uses magic on the stage. These variants include {{s|mariowiki|Acorn Plains}}, {{s|mariowiki|Rock-Candy Mines}}, {{s|supermariowiki|Meringue Clouds}}, and the tower levels (particularly {{s|supermariowiki|Slide Lift Tower}}.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:MarioGalaxyIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mario Galaxy]]'''[[Mario Galaxy]]''': A stage based on ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy}}''. The players fight on a planet reminiscent of the {{s|mariowiki|Gateway Galaxy}} from ''Super Mario Galaxy''. The {{s|mariowiki|Starship Mario}} from ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario Galaxy 2}}'' can be seen presumably flying past the stage with one of Bowser's airships in pursuit. The ship's captain {{s|mariowiki|Lubba}} can be seen piloting the Starship Mario. Two moons can be seen as well. It has been stated that the gravity is stronger towards the center of the stage, therefore players must use new tactics to win.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:DelfinoPlazaIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Delfino Plaza]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}} '''[[Delfino Plaza]]''': The stage returns from ''[[Brawl]]'' with subtle aesthetic changes. Beyond the higher quality graphics, the stage appears to be unchanged from ''Brawl''.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:MarioCircuitIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mario Circuit (SSB4)]]'''{{SSB4|Mario Circuit}}''': A stage based on [[mariowiki:Mario Circuit (Wii U)|Mario Circuit]] from ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 8}}''. Unlike the similarly named stage from ''Brawl'', the stage travels to several parts of the track in a vein similar to Delfino Plaza from ''Brawl'' and Rainbow Road from the Nintendo 3DS version.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:MarioCircuitBrawlIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Mario Circuit (SSBB)]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}} '''[[Mario Circuit (SSBB)|Mario Circuit (Brawl)]]''': The ''Brawl'' version of Mario Circuit also appears as a [[Familiar Stage]]. The graphics have been updated.{{clr}} |
| | *[[File:LuigisMansionIconSSB4-U.png|75px|right|link=Luigi's Mansion]]{{GameIcon|SSBB}} '''[[Luigi's Mansion]]''': The originally unlockable stage also returns from ''[[Brawl]]'', but it is now available from the start. No gameplay changes have been discovered, but the stage has been updated aesthetically with HD graphics.{{clr}} |
| | |
| | ===[[Items]]=== |
| | *'''[[Grass (item)|Grass]]''': A new type of [[container]] based on the pluckable stalks of ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. Upon pressing the attack item by, the grass is plucked and with it comes a randomly selected item. If the item can be held, it automatically is in the character's hand. Like in the original game, the grass is red instead of green. |
| | *'''[[Super Mushroom]]''': A returning transforming item and the basis for the ''Mario'' series emblem. The iconic Super Mushroom travels across the stage, and if touched, it causes the fighter to grow very large, increasing the range of their attacks and knockback at the expense of a bigger hurtbox. |
| | *'''[[Poison Mushroom]]''': Another returning transforming item from ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''. This infamous item causes the fighter to shrink instead of grow. Unlike the other returning items in the game, the Poison Mushroom's aesthetics have not changed to reflect its recent purple color from ''Super Mario 3D Land''. |
| | *'''[[Super Star]]''': An invincibility item that bounces across the stage, as it did in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' Upon contact, the fighter gains temporary invincibility. |
| | *'''[[Metal Box]]''': An special type of block from ''Super Mario 64'' that turns the fighter into their metal form. In this state the fighter does not flinch very easily and is very strong, at the cost of being incredibly heavy. |
| | *'''[[Lightning]]''': An item of ''Mario Kart'' infamy. Touching the item causes various effects, either shrinking all of the fighter's opponents, the fighter itself, or everyone. |
| | *'''[[Bullet Bill]]''': A new item also from ''Mario Kart''. After the small Bullet Bill is picked up, the fighter can transform into the actual bullet itself and fly across the stage in any chosen direction when the attack button is pressed. |
| | *'''[[Fire Bar]]''': A new battering weapon from ''Super Mario Bros.'', introduced in the April 2014 Smash Bros. Direct. It consists of several fireballs projecting from a metal block. Every second time it makes contact with something, it loses a fireball. The greatest knockback and damage output is at the base of the bar. |
| | *'''[[Golden Hammer]]''': One of the returning hammers from ''Brawl'', the Golden Hammer retains its unique attribute of setting the character in a locked state of constantly whacking the hammer. That being said, the duration of the attack is much shorter. While normally very powerful, there is chance of the hammer really being a harmless, squeezable toy that leaves the fighter wielding it vulnerable. Despite formal acknowledgement of a ''Wrecking Crew'' series, the Golden Hammer is still classified as a ''Mario'' item. |
| | *'''[[Fire Flower]]''': A returning shooting item from ''Super Mario Bros.'' Wielding it allows the fighter to erupt flames from the flower's center, although prolonged usage of the flower causes the flames to get smaller and eventually die. When it spawns, the item falls slowly to the ground and when left alone it'll gently sway back and forth, like in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' subseries. |
| | *'''[[Bob-Omb]]''': The Bob-Omb returns from previous installments, mostly unchanged. It is a reoccurring explosive from ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. When it spawns it'll sit ideally unless picked up. If left waiting too long, its key will begin to turn and the bomb will begin to walk until it detonates. |
| | *'''[[Freezie]]''': Originally from ''Mario Bros.'', this returning item from ‘‘Brawl’’ freezes any opponents it is thrown at. In this installment, it no longer slides off of ledges, and it will freeze any fighters who actively attack it instead of picking it up. |
| | *'''[[Hothead]]''': Another returning item from ''Brawl'', the Hothead functions as it did previously, trailing along the stage it was thrown on. As before, it does not damage the thrower and grows bigger and faster if it makes contact with fire. |
| | *'''[[Green Shell]]''': The returning [[Koopa Troopa]] shell faithfully replicates its functions in the original ''Super Mario Bros.'' as a projectile that trails along the ground. In this installment, its proportions more accurately reflect the modern design of the Koopas. |
| | *'''[[Banana Peel]]''': Another returning item from ''Mario Kart'', confirmed to return in "The Comet Observatory" trailer. With the removal of random tripping, it is one of the few instances in the game where fighters can legitimately slip. It also returns as part of [[Diddy Kong (SSB4)|Diddy Kong's]] moveset. |
| | *'''[[Soccer Ball]]''': A seemingly generic ball that cannot be grabbed, but when hit it will fly across the stage as a dangerous, enflamed projectile. This attribute comes from ''Mario Strikers''. |
| | *'''[[POW Block]]''': A new throwable item introduced in the April 2014 Smash Bros. Direct. It launches grounded opponents into the air when hit, much like the POW Blocks in the [[Mushroom Kingdom (stage)|Mushroom Kingdom]] and [[Mario Bros.]] stages in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', respectively. Much like it's previous appearances as stage elements, it shrinks after each consecutive hit and can be hit a total of three times per block. |
| | *'''[[Spiny Shell]]''': The infamous blue shell of ''Mario Kart'' is a new throwable item introduced in the April 2014 Smash Bros. Direct. When thrown, it locks onto an opponent and hovers for some time before striking. Its design notably reflects its appearances from ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 7}}'' and ''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Kart 8}}''. |
| | *'''[[Boomerang (item)|Boomerang]]''': A new item shown in one of a number of press images released at the same time as the April 2014 Smash Bros. Direct. The Boomerang can be launched at opponents as a throwable weapon, but returns to the fighter after going a certain distance. When caught, its power increases. Boomerangs can be caught by opponents for their own use as well. |
| | *'''[[Super Leaf]]''': A new item originally shown in one of a number of press images released at the same time as the April 2014 Smash Bros. Direct. It gives the user raccoon ears and a tail, and like Raccoon Mario's gliding ability in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', it allows the user to float in mid-air like [[Peach (SSB4)|Peach]]. During development, it was considered to potentially also allow the user to strike opponents with the tail, but this was ultimately scrapped. When fluttering, the floating sound effect from ''Super Mario 3D Land'' plays. |

| | ==Games with elements from or in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series== |
| | |
| | ===''{{s|mariowiki|Mario Bros.}}''=== |
| | [[File:MarioBros.png|thumb|180px|''Mario Bros.'']] |
| | The first ''Mario'' game introduced [[Luigi]]. It also contributes a [[Mario Bros. (stage)|stage]] that is based on the first level. The music also appears. |
| | |
| | *Luigi, who premiered in this game, is an unlockable character for all games other than ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', where he is a starter. Luigi's white [[Palette swap|costume]] is also reminiscent of what he wore in the {{s|nwiki|NES}} version of this game. Additionally, his [[fireball]]s are identical to the green ones that appear in this game. |
| | *The [[Freezie]] enemies in this game became items in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. |
| | *The [[Shellcreeper]] enemies are the predecessors to the [[Koopa Troopa]]s, which play many roles in the series. |
| | *[[Sidestepper]] appears as a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. |
| | *{{s|mariowiki|Coin}}s make their first appearance in this game as collectible bonus items. |
| | *Fireballs also make a debut, though the Mario Bros. are unable to control these. They would later do so in the successor to this game, ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', but only the red fireballs exist. |
| | *One of the levels appear as a stage in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' under the same name as the game, but Freezies (due to already being items), Red Fireballs, and [[mariowiki:Fighter Fly|Fighter Flies]] are not present. |
| | *Fighter Flies appear as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. |
| | *The way a character respawns in most modes is similar to how the brothers respawn in this game after losing a life (see [[revival platform]]). |
| | *Mario's pink and light blue alternate costume in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' is based on his outfit on the Japanese/Europe box art of ''Mario Bros.'' [[Wario]] also has these colors for one of his alternate costumes in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''. |
| | *Luigi's cyan and navy blue alternate costume in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' is based on Mario's outfit on the box art of ''Mario Bros.'' |
| | |
| | ===''[[mariowiki:Pinball (game)|Pinball]]''=== |
| | Luigi's orange and light blue alternate costume in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' is very similar to Mario's outfit on the box art of ''Pinball''. |
| | |
| | ===''[[Wrecking Crew (game)|Wrecking Crew]]''=== |
| | Mario's white and brown alternate costumes in ''Super Smash Bros.'', ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' is a reference to {{s|mariowiki|Foreman Spike}}. Additionally, his green and brown alternate costume in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' is based on his outfit on the Japanese box art of ''Wrecking Crew''. Luigi's pink alternate costume in all ''Super Smash Bros.'' games is based on his outfit in ''Wrecking Crew''. |
| | |
| | The {{s|mariowiki|Eggplant Man}} appears as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. |
| | |
| | The [[Golden Hammer]] and its theme appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''. |
| | |
| | [[Wrecking Crew|A stage based on the game]] appears in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', and the game itself appears as a [[Masterpiece]]. |
| | |
| | ===''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''=== |
| | [[File:SuperMarioBrosbox.jpg|200x|thumb|''Super Mario Bros.'' box art]] |
| | {{main|Super Mario Bros.}} |
| | [[Mario]] and his brother [[Luigi]] were the only two characters representing their series in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', and have become staples in the games ever since. [[Bowser]] and [[Princess Peach]] were originally intended to be playable as well. However, technical limitations forced their removal. However, they are playable in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. Artwork depicting Mario and various other characters and enemies appear as a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. |
| | |
| | Many items from this game, namely the [[Super Mushroom]], the [[Fire Flower]], the [[Starman (item)|Starman]], the [[Springboard]], and the [[Green Shell|Green]] and [[Red Shell]]s made their first initial appearances in this game. The {{s|supermariowiki|? Block}} appears as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. [[Fire Bar]] appears as an item in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''. Also, the {{s|mariowiki|1-up Mushroom}} appears as a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', as well as one of the selectable headgears for the Mii Fighters. Mario and Luigi have the ability to shoot fireballs, though without a Fire Flower. Mario and Luigi's up special move, [[Super Jump Punch]], originates from this game, where they hit coin blocks above them multiple times. Bowser's ability to breathe fire, along with one of his custom moves, Fire Shot, comes from this game. Mario mimics his standing pose in this game when he performs his up taunt, where when he performs it, he grows into {{s|mariowiki|Super Mario}}, as if taking a Super Mushroom, before shrinking again. Other characters and enemies, such as [[Toad]], [[Goomba]], etc. appeared in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series either as [[Trophy|trophies]], [[common enemies]], or parts of character's attacks. |
| | |
| | Also, the {{SSB|Mushroom Kingdom}} stage in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and {{SSBM|Mushroom Kingdom}} stage in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' are based graphically on how they looked in ''Super Mario Bros.'' In addition, ''Brawl''’s [[Mushroomy Kingdom]] is a recreation of the game's [[mariowiki:World 1-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-1]] and [[mariowiki:World 1-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 1-2]]. |
| | |
| | Additionally, Mario's outfit when {{s|supermariowiki|Fire Mario}} is present in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' as his white [[Palette swap (SSBB)|costume]]. Likewise, Luigi's outfit as Small/Super Luigi is present in ''Smash 64'' and ''Melee''. It is also in ''Brawl'', but it favors his Fire Luigi outfit in later games more. (In ''Super Mario Bros.'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Luigi and Mario share the same Fire colors.) |
| | |
| | Several music tracks appear in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, such as the Ground theme, Underground theme, Underwater theme, and the [[Princess Peach's Castle]] theme. |
| | |
| | The game is available as a [[Masterpieces|masterpiece]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. |
| | |
| | In addition, the game's name inspired the name of the English versions of the ''Smash Bros.'' games. |
| | |
| | The [[helpless]] animations of Mario, Luigi and [[Dr. Mario]] are based on the pose that Mario and Luigi take upon death in this game. |
| | |
| | ===''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''=== |
| | {{main|Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels}} |
| | Released as ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' in Japan, this game was very similar to its predecessor in appearance and gameplay, but introduced the [[Poison Mushroom]]. |
| | |
| | It also introduced differences between Mario and Luigi, where the latter could jump higher, but with less overall agility. This difference is a recurring feature in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. |
| | |
| | An orchestration medley of music from ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' appear: The ending theme, underground theme, 1-Up tune, "timer warning" theme, underwater theme, invincible theme, and "level clear" theme. |
| | |
| | Bowser's eight alternate coloration is based on a {{s|mariowiki|Bowser Impostor}}, specifically the one who appears in World 8-4 in this game. |
| | |
| | The game is available as a masterpiece in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. |
| | |
| | ===''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]''=== |
| | [[File:Mario 2 box.png|200x200px|thumb|''Super Mario Bros. 2'' box art]] |
| | {{main|Super Mario Bros. 2}} |
| | The [[Mushroom: Kingdom II]] stage is based on {{s|mariowiki|Subcon}}, the setting of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' (called ''Super Mario USA'' in Japan). Also, many characters from this game, such as [[Birdo]], [[Pidgit]], and [[Shy Guy]]s appear in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' either as enemies, trophies, or stage elements. [[Bob-omb]]s appear in the ''Smash Bros.'' games, as items. {{s|mariowiki|Snifit}} and {{s|mariowiki|Mouser}} appear as stickers in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. The character [[Peach]] has the down special move [[Vegetable]], which originated from ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', as well as her ability to [[float]] if the jump button is held. Additionally, Peach appears as a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', depicting her artwork for this game. |
| | |
| | This game is also available as a masterpiece in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' by winning in [[Versus mode]] with Peach five times. The game starts the player with Peach, yet the player can change their character to either Mario, Luigi, or Toad once they make Peach lose all her health. Also, two of the random names generated in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' when naming something are "BIRDO" and "WART", referencing Birdo and {{s|supermariowiki|Wart}}, both who originated in ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. |
| | |
| | In ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', the Ground Theme is present and can be heard in the stages [[Peach's Castle|Peach's Castle (64)]] and [[Super Mario Maker]]. Luigi performs a {{s|supermariowiki|scuttle}} in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''; this ability originated from this game. [[Shy Guy]]s appear as enemies in [[Smash Run]] in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. Also, [[Grass (item)|Grass]] is a world element in this game, and it appeared in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. {{s|mariowiki|Pokey}} also appears as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. |
| | |
| | ===''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Land}}''=== |
| | A remixed version of the underground theme from ''Super Mario Land'' appears as one of the tracks for the underground version of [[Mushroomy Kingdom]], which also plays in the [[Subspace Emissary]]'s [[The Path to the Ruins]] (the underground segment of the level), [[The Ruins]], and parts of [[The Great Maze]], which are based on The Ruins. [[Princess Daisy]], who debuted in this game, appears as a sticker in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. She also appears as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. Daisy's color scheme is available for use by [[Peach]] as an alternate costume. Also, a Daisy Wig is available as a headgear for all [[Mii Fighter]] types, and Daisy's baseball appearance appears in [[Smash Tour]] as an item. |
| | |
| | ===''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Bros. 3}}''=== |
| | The alternate music for the [[Yoshi's Island]] stage in ''Melee'' is titled after this game, and is a rendition of its main theme and the overworld theme of {{s|mariowiki|Grass Land}}. A remixed version of the {{s|mariowiki|Airship}} theme also appears, along with the Boss Fortress theme, which is also remixed. A medley of this game's athletic, "level clear", {{s|mariowiki|Giant Land}}, Hammer Bros., and "death" themes appear in ''SSB4'', which plays in [[3D Land]] and [[Mushroom Kingdom U]]. |
| | |
| | {{s|mariowiki|Raccoon Mario}} appears as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. |
| | |
| | Bowser's down special, [[Bowser Bomb]], is based on his attack pattern in this game. {{s|supermariowiki|Cannonball}}s, which first appeared in this game, serve as [[Bowser Jr.]]'s neutral special, [[Clown Cannon]]. |
| | |
| | In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', the music used when Peach performs her Final Smash, [[Peach Blossom]], uses a sped-up remix of the {{s|mariowiki|Coin Heaven}}/{{s|mariowiki|The Sky}} theme from this game. |
| | |
| | Mario and Luigi's midair flips are based on {{s|supermariowiki|Invincible Mario}}, where when he jumps he performs flips. |
| | |
| | The [[Super Leaf]] power-up that debuted in this game appears in ''Super Smash Bros. 4.'' Also, a trophy of {{s|mariowiki|Tanooki Mario}} and Kitsune Luigi and a {{s|mariowiki|Statue Mario}} trophy appear in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. |
| | |
| | The [[Koopalings]], who made their debut in this game, appear as playable characters as [[palette swap (SSB4)|alternate costumes]] for Bowser Jr. in ''Super Smash Bros. 4''. {{s|supermariowiki|Ludwig von Koopa}} appears as a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Also, [[Boo]] appears as a trophy. In addition, he appears as an item in [[Smash Tour]]. [[Flame Chomp]] appears as trophies in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'', as well as the {{s|mariowiki|P Switch}}. {{s|supermariowiki|Thwomp}} appears as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'', as well as one of [[Kirby]]'s [[Stone]] transformations. [[Chain Chomp]] appears as a sticker and trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. He also appears as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''. Additionally, Chain Chomp appears as an enemy in [[Smash Run]] in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. |

| | [[Yoshi]], a starter character in all of the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' games, premiered in this game. Also, the stage [[Yoshi's Island: Yoshi's Island|Yoshi's Island]], available in ''Melee'', ''Brawl'', and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', is based on the levels of this game. In addition, the music to Yoshi's Island is a rearrangement of the athletic theme of ''Super Mario World''. |
| | |
| | In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', Yoshi's [[Final Smash]], [[Super Dragon]], is based on powers Yoshi could obtain in ''Super Mario World'', depending on what color Koopa shells Yoshi eats. |
| | |
| | *Red Koopa Shells have Yoshi spit out fire. |
| | *Blue Koopa Shells allow Yoshi to fly. |
| | *Yellow Koopa Shells allow Yoshi to stomp and release dust clouds, which damage enemies. |
| | *Blinking Koopa Shells give Yoshi all these powers. |
| | *Green Koopa Shells do nothing. |
| | Yoshis of the corresponding colors gain the abilities of both the corresponding shell and the one in their mouths. |
| | |
| | Yoshi's red, blue and yellow alternate costumes in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' are based on those specific colored Yoshis in ''Super Mario World''. |
| | |
| | Also, a remix of the "Title" and "Ending" music appears and is played on the Delfino Plaza stage. More music appears in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series and are remixed, such as the Yoshi's Island theme, Fortress Boss theme, and the Castle theme. The track "Super Mario World Medley" also appears and it contains a remix of various themes: Athletic theme, the percussion used while riding [[Yoshi]], the {{s|supermariowiki|Bonus Game}} theme, the "level clear" theme, the {{s|mariowiki|Star World}} theme and the {{s|mariowiki|Super Star}} theme. |
| | |
| | There is also a trophy of Mario riding Yoshi in ''Melee'', which was distributed at certain Nintendo events. |
| | |
| | The [[Mario Tornado]] and [[Luigi Cyclone]] may come from the {{s|mariowiki|Spin Jump}} in this game. Mario's side special, [[Cape]], is based on the {{s|mariowiki|Cape Feather}} power-up in this game, which gave Mario a cape he could use to swing and damage enemies. Bowser Jr.'s down special, [[Mechakoopa]], originated in this game. A [[supermariowiki:Grinder (obstacle)|Grinder]], which first appeared in this game, serves as Bowser Jr.'s dash attack. |
| | |
| | The [[Koopa Clown Car]], used by Bowser in the final boss battle of ''Super Mario World'', appears as a trophy in ''Melee'' and Bowser uses it in the [[Subspace Emissary]]. {{SSB4|Bowser Jr.}}'s moveset also revolves around the Koopa Clown Car. |
| | |
| | ''Super Mario World'' appears as a masterpiece in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. |
| | |
| | [[Banzai Bill]] appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', and [[Hot Head]] appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''; the former is a stage hazard/cameo/enemy and the latter functions as an item. They also appear as trophies in these games. {{s|mariowiki|Blargg}} appears as a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. [[Spike Top]] and {{s|mariowiki|Wiggler}} appear as trophies in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''. |

| | |
| | One of Mario and Luigi's alternate costumes is based on their fire forms from the game in ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4''. |
| | |
| | ===''{{s|mariowiki|NES Open Tournament Golf}}''=== |

| | |
| | ===''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins}}''=== |
| | [[Wario]], who debuted in this game, appears as a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and a playable character in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''.

| | |
| | ===''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island}}''=== |
| | Many of Yoshi's attacks and moves are from this game. [[Egg Lay]], [[Yoshi Bomb]], and [[Egg Throw]] are primary attacks in the game. Also, [[Yoshi]]'s second jump (known as the {{s|mariowiki|Flutter Jump}}) originated from this game (although the signature grunt of effort did not appear until ''{{s|mariowiki|Yoshi's Story}}'' - subsequently, that game's vocal effects for Yoshi would be used in the Game Boy Advance port of ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''). Yoshi's down aerial could also be a reference to his Flutter Jump ability. Yoshi's pink, cyan and purple alternate costumes in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'' are based on those specific colored Yoshis in ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''. |
| | |
| | Characters from this game, such as {{s|mariowiki|Baby Mario}} and {{s|mariowiki|Baby Bowser}}, became [[trophy|trophies]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. Baby Mario also appears as three stickers in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', with one in his [[supermariowiki:Superstar Mario|Superstar form]]. Also, a new stage in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', [[Yoshi's Island (SSBB)|Yoshi's Island]], takes on ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'''s general look, a doodle-like appearance. {{s|mariowiki|Baby Luigi}} appears as a sticker in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' and a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''. {{s|supermariowiki|Stork}}, {{s|supermariowiki|Goonie}}, {{s|supermariowiki|Crayzee Dayzee}}, {{s|supermariowiki|Fly Guy}}, {{s|supermariowiki|Tap-Tap}}, {{s|supermariowiki|Burt the Bashful}}, and {{s|supermariowiki|Raphael the Raven}} all appear as stickers in Super Smash Bros.

The particular iteration of Rainbow Road they're driving on seems to have been inspired by [[mariowiki:Rainbow Road (Wii)|the one from ''Mario Kart Wii'']], which is the only ''Mario Kart'' game to feature Rosalina accompanied by [[Luma]], and was her playable debut in the ''Mario Kart'' series. |
| | *{{SSB4|Bowser Jr.}}'s side special, [[Clown Kart Dash]] is likely based on the {{s|mariowiki|Koopa Clown}}, one of the kart bodies in ''Mario Kart 7''. |

| *01. [[File:MarioIcon(SSBU).png|50px|right|link=Mario (SSBU)]]'''{{SSBU|Mario}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): the title character of the ''Mario'' franchise: "Mr. Video Game himself".

His moveset has been retained, but the animations for many of his attacks have been exaggerated and reflect changes to their mechanics. His [[dash attack]] no longer allows him to slide under projectile attacks. His design is based on his appearance in ''Super Mario Odyssey''. Mario's traveling companion from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Odyssey}}'' - {{iw|mariowiki|Cappy}} - has replaced his standard cap, but he only reveals himself occasionally when Mario uses [[Super Jump Punch]] and through Mario's new side taunt, during which he tosses Cappy around in a circle. Mario has two new costumes: one is his builder outfit from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker}}'' and the other is his wedding tuxedo from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Super Mario Odyssey}}''. Mario is one of eight characters available from the start, but he must be unlocked in [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]]. In this mode, he must be defeated on [[Final Destination]] and is always the first character unlocked during the campaign.{{clr}}

Ultimate|unlockable fighter]] after being a starter in ''Smash 4''. While Luigi retains many of his moves, he is much less slippery than in previous ''Smash Bros.'' entries and now has a new running animation derived from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Luigi's Mansion}}''. As alluded to during {{SSBU|Simon}}'s reveal trailer "Vampire Killer", Luigi now uses the [[Poltergust G-00]] from ''{{iw|mariowiki|Luigi's Mansion 3}}'' for all of his [[grab]]s and [[throw]]s. To unlock him, he must be defeated on the [[Luigi's Mansion]] stage.{{clr}}

His design is more monotone and dark, and his hair now has some physics-based movement.

Bowser also received an updated Final Smash called [[Giga Bowser Punch]], which has him teleport to the background of the stage, aim a reticle, and punch opponents in his Giga Bowser form. Giga Bowser is no longer a full moveset transformation Final Smash, but does one move (as [[Final Smash]]es for Ultimate were standardized and straight to the point).{{clr}}

| *18. [[File:DrMarioIcon(SSBU).png|50px|right|link=Dr. Mario (SSBU)]]'''{{SSBU|Dr. Mario}}''' ([[Unlockable character|Unlockable]]): Dr. Mario returns as an unlockable fighter, and while he is still a clone of Mario, he is not labeled as an Echo Fighter. His design has received some minor changes regarding coloration, and his damage output and mobility has received some buffs. Dr. Mario also received a new down air that meteor smashes, akin to [[Captain Falcon]] and [[Ganondorf]]'s equivalent move.

Like his father, Jr.'s design is much simpler compared to his ''Smash 4'' counterpart. Bowser Jr.'s moveset has been mostly retooled to be more effective and less situational, at the cost of nerfs to his best moves from ''Smash 4''. Like in ''Smash 4'', the [[Koopalings]] appear as [[alternate costume]]s.

| ===Spirits=== | | ===''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 3D World}}''=== |
| {{main|List of spirits (Super Mario series)}} | | {{s|mariowiki|Mystery House}}s in this game focus on Mario and friends using one of their abilities to perform a certain task within a time limit. In [[mariowiki:World 2 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 2]], there's a Mystery House called {{s|mariowiki|Mystery House Melee}}, in which every enemy must be defeated. Later in [[mariowiki:World Mushroom (Super Mario 3D World)|World Mushroom]], there is another called {{s|mariowiki|Mystery House Brawl}}, where again players must defeat every enemy that appears (being a little more difficult because of obstructing brick blocks). These houses and their objectives, which involve fighting, are obvious references to ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl.'' Also, one of Peach's and Rosalina's alternate costumes appears to be based on their fire forms from this game. Several music tracks from this game appear in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'': "The Great Tower Showdown 2", "Champion Road", and "Super Bell Hill." |
