Four characters from the ''Mario'' franchise are playable in ''Brawl'', not counting any sub-franchises, in which case the total number is eight. On the final character select screen (after all characters are unlocked), the first two columns are dedicated to the playable ''Mario'' characters, with the first column being the Mushroom Kingdom denizens, and the second column being the sub-series stars. | Four characters from the ''Mario'' franchise are playable in ''Brawl'', not counting any sub-franchises, in which case the total number is eight.

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.

*[[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:PeachIcon(SSBB).png|50px|right|link=Peach (SSBB)]]'''{{SSBB|Peach}}''' ([[Starter character|Starter]]): Peach reappears from ''Melee''.

*[[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. Ultimate]]. {{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''.
