The '''audience''' (or '''crowd''') is a group of minor characters that appear in the background of several games, primarily spinoffs. Audiences appear in a variety of sports games in stadiums or sidelines, but most of the time have no effect on gameplay beyond occasional crowd noises in certain games. Furthermore, some installments of the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series starting with ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' have an unseen audience that claps and cheers after certain goals are met. Audiences have their most important role in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', where they assist in a majority of the battles.
The '''audience''' (or '''crowd''') is a group of minor characters that appear in every battle sequence in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', as well as in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'' when the player performs a [[Stylish move]]. Audiences also appear in a variety of sports games in stadiums, but here, they have no effect on gameplay beyond occasional crowd noises in certain games. Furthermore, some installments of the ''[[Super Mario (series)|Super Mario]]'' series starting with ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' have an unseen audience that claps and cheers after certain goals are met.
 
Early on, audiences were portrayed simply as flashing blobs of color, though as game technology improved, they became more often animated textures featuring recognizable ''Super Mario'' characters or even simple models for closer members. Some common audience members are [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, [[Koopa Troopa]]s, [[Shy Guy]]s, [[Goomba]]s, [[Pianta]]s, and [[Boo]]s.

{{main|Stage (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)}}
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]], every battle is performed on a stage in front of the audience. They can either be allies or enemies during the battles. The audience appears in the bottom of the screen, giving Mario [[Star Power|SP]] when he attacks enemies, except when they are made up of [[Dull Bones]]. SP is used to refill Mario's Star Power which he needs to use [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] moves.

Outside of battle, audiences only appear in the [[Glitz Pit]], usually watching the battles. During two portions of Chapter 3, they swarm the lobby (for [[Rawk Hawk]] and Mario, respectively), which slows down Mario's ability to walk through it similar to the [[Dull Bones]] in [[Hooktail Castle]]. The battle audience is also shown in the ending as the audience of [[Flurrie]]'s new play.

[[File:SPM Blobule Stylish.png|thumb|250px|''Super Paper Mario''{{'}}s audience]]
In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', an audience of sorts appears whenever Mario or another playable character attacks an enemy and does a stylish move, which is done by shaking the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] when [[stomp]]ing on an enemy. They appear along the edges of the screen as paper cutouts. This approval of the audience gives the player a higher [[Point|score]] than if they have just jumped on an enemy. The crowd in this game only has a handful of species from the previous game, taking out most of the species.

====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
===''Paper Mario: The Origami King''===
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', the audience plays a more active role. As Mario rescues Toads folded up throughout the world, more of them fill the stands in each battle. Mario can pay the audience up to 999 coins a turn for assistance. In regular battles, they can automatically solve puzzles, damage enemies, and provide items and healing. For boss battles, they can scatter items across the ring grid, show the path that Mario takes in the ring's current configuration, and provide items and healing. The more audience members that Mario has recruited and the more he pays them, the greater these effects are. The Toads also make comments on the enemies Mario is currently facing or on the attack Mario is currently using.

===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''====
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', an audience of [[Shroob]]s appears during the battle against [[Shrooboid Brat]] in the [[Koopaseum]]. They direct the Shrooboid's attacks by holding up colored signs with an "M" or an "L" symbol on them, though sometimes the colors are reversed to trick the player. They are used to direct where it will shoot [[fireball]]s from [[Fire Flower]]s as well [[Mushroom]]s, and [[Poison Mushroom]]s that are passed across the crowd, as well as determine where it will throw its lollipop depending on which sign is held up more times in the audience.
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''====
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', an audience appears during the fight against [[Midbus]] in [[Fawful Theater]]. They throw [[coin]]s at a contender that pulls off a successful attack. They also sometimes throw food on the stage, which can be eaten by either party to restore [[Heart Point|HP]].
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Run''====
{{main|Toad (species)}}
In the Toad Rally mode of ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', players compete against the "ghost data" of other players. One of the objectives of the mode is to impress Toads by performing stylish moves. This causes the Toad to cheer for the player. The Toads are displayed at the bottom of the screen, in the foreground. At the end of a run, the Toads cheering for each player multiply the number of coins they collected. Thes coin totals are the final score. The Toads are described as a "crowd" in the screen before a run showing which color Toads can appear during that run.
====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', an audience resembling the one from ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' (but silhouetted) appears as one of the animations that can be placed with the [[Soundfrog]]. It is made up of Mario, Luigi, Toads, Yoshi and Princess Peach.

*[[Kritter]]s
In this game, characters do not appear in the audience until the Chapter they are introduced in. For example, Punies do not appear until [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 2: The Great Boggly Tree|Chapter 2]], Bulky Bob-ombs do not appear until [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door#Chapter 5: The Key to Pirates|Chapter 5]] (with the exception of the [[Macho Grubba]] and second [[Doopliss]] fight in the GameCube version), and so on. The only exception is inside the [[Pit of 100 Trials (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|Pit of 100 Trials]], where all possible types of members can appear in the lower floors. Upon returning to previous areas, the battles there can still only have the types of audience members they originally had - for example, the lone [[Spiked Goomba|Spiky Goomba]] in [[Rogueport Underground]] can only ever have Toads, Goombas, Shy Guys, and/or Luigi in its battles' audiences.

It is also possible to see [[Piranha Plant]]s in the audience early in the western portion of the Rogueport Underground before travelling to [[Boggly Woods]].


In the Switch remake, to compensate for the drastic weakening of Star Power multipliers elsewhere, all audience members have a higher base value for provided Star Power.<ref>https://supermariofiles.wordpress.com/2024/07/12/ttyd-battle-bits-026-star-power-level/</ref>
