Undoubtedly the most recognizable video game franchise of all time, and centerpiece of [[Nintendo]]'s gaming empire. It was created by [[Shigeru Miyamoto]], and popularized the [[Platform Game]].
Line 344:
* [[Laborious Laziness]]: Wario is ''made'' of this trope. In fact, ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' commented on it once in a preview of ''[[Wario Master of Disguise]]''.
* [[Large Ham]]: Bowser pretty much whenever he has voice acting (''[[Narm|especially]]'' in ''Super Mario Sunshine''). Most of Bowser's hammy lines come from the RPGs, though. Bowser's antics are very reminiscent of a pro wrestler, saying things like:

* [[Laughably Evil]]: Bowser fits this in the spin off games and RPGs. However, in the main platforming series, [[Took a Level In Badass|he's portrayed in a much more serious manner.]]
** Aside from Bowser, many of the villains who originated from the spin-offs and RPGs fill in this spot. Cackletta and Fawful in particular take it [[Up to Eleven]] (though one could say that [[Fountain of Memes|Fawful]] takes it Up To Twelve).
Line 386:
** In ''Mario Superstar Baseball'' and ''Mario Super Sluggers'', they share status enhancements, namely chemistry, as they are buddy players.
** In ''Mario Power Tennis'', given it has the most number of voiced lines out of all ([[Canon Discontinuity|all of it]]) Mario games, Mario outright professes his love for Peach in her trophy winning sequence, and she responds with a smile and blows a kiss. In Mario's own winning sequence, Peach kisses him on the cheek.

** In [[Paper Mario (franchise)|Paper Mario]], the first one, [[Shipper on Deck|one of the Toads tells Mario to take Peach on a date to Shooting Star Summit]].
** However, it is important to note that the only time either character is asked if they're boyfriend and girlfriend, the answer given is a simple 'no'.
Line 403:
** Their team names from the [[Mario Party]] series include: "Steady Sweeties", "Tango Tanglers", and "Shy Sidekicks".
** The most glaring hint, as it was for Mario and Peach, was in ''Mario Power Tennis'', with her rollerblading and receiving her trophy from Luigi.

** In [[Super Smash Bros]] Melee, Daisy's trophy biography states:

** One more glaring hint: In ''[[Mario Kart|Mario Kart Wii]]'', the track Daisy Circuit features a giant golden statue of Luigi dancing with Daisy, holding hands. Another golden statue depicts Baby Luigi dancing with Baby Daisy, also holding hands ([[Easter Egg|unless the statues were replaced by your Miis]]).
* [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]: Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings hiding in the birthday cake in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. This being Mario, it ''works''.
