In ''Mario Bros.'', Fighter Flies are one of the myriad of pests that emerge from pipes to attack Mario and Luigi. They first appear in Phase 6 in international releases and Phase 7 in Japanese versions. After a Fighter Fly emerges, it hops across the [[floor (Mario Bros.)|floor]]s. As such, Mario has to precisely time his [[jump]] when the Fighter Fly is on the ground to flip the creature over. If airborne, a Fighter Fly cannot be flipped over - not even if Mario uses the [[POW Block]]. Once flipped over, Mario has to run into the insect to clear it off the stage.

If airborne, a Fighter Fly cannot be flipped over - not even if Mario uses the [[POW Block]]. Once flipped over, Mario has to run into the insect to clear it off the stage.


In early iterations of the game, their design features large toothy scowls and shiny eyes, but their design was redone for the multiplayer mode of the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' version of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Their design in this title has large white eyes with black pupils, while their scowls are replaced with small closed mouths, their heads are a light orange color, and they have noses. This design is further developed in ''[[Mario Bros. (Game Boy Advance)|Mario Bros.]]'' for [[Game Boy Advance]] , which also gives them three colors and speeds depending on how many times they have been flipped over, like the other target enemies have.

=====In other iterations of ''Mario Bros.''=====
Fighter Flies appear in ''Luigi Bros.'', an additional game featured in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. Like the other enemies in ''Luigi Bros.'', Fighter Flies behave in the same way as in ''Mario Bros.'', which this game is based on.
 
Fighter Flies are present in ''[[NES Remix]]'' as enemies and level objectives in some of the challenges and remixes based on ''Mario Bros.''.

In ''[[Punch Ball Mario Bros.]]'', the other sequel by Hudson Soft, Fighterflies can be flipped over by hitting the POW Block while it is on the ground or having a [[Punch Ball]] thrown at them. If they recover or become the last target enemy on stage, they will turn green and move faster. They first appear in Phase 6.

===Playbox BASIC / Family BASIC===
Fighterflies are programmable sprites in the Playbox BASIC and [[Family BASIC]] accessories for the [[Family Computer]]. They make a cameo in the Playbox BASIC's Biorhythm Board. They appear as enemies in shooter [[mini-game]]s in the Data Recorder's cassette and Family BASIC V3.


===''Super Mario Bros. Special''===
===''Super Mario Bros. Special''===
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. Special]]'', Fighterflies, named '''Nakaji''', appear in five levels. They are presumably named after Tomohiko Nakajima, one of the three staff members responsible for naming new enemies. He also made the end credits, which is the only place where the name appears. While it is not possible to [[stomp]] them, they can be defeated by any other method, including with a [[hammer|Hummer]].

In this game, they hop towards Mario, just like in ''Mario Bros.'' Some of them spawn in midair and hop downward when scrolled on-screen instead of appearing simply on the ground. [[Kumo]]s from the [[Easton Kingdom]] attack in the same manner as Flies. They can simply be jumped on or be shot with a [[Superball Mario|Superball]] to be defeated. Flies award Mario with 400 points when he defeats them. They are only found in [[World 1-1 (Super Mario Land)|World 1-1]] and [[World 1-3 (Super Mario Land)|World 1-3]] where, in the latter, one poses as [[Princess Daisy]].

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
Fighter Flies appear in ''[[Luigi Bros.]]'', a remake of ''Mario Bros.'' featured in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|its Nintendo Switch port]]. No changes were made to Fighter Flies.

====''Super Mario Maker''====
A [[Mystery Mushroom]] costume, designed after Fighter Fly, can be unlocked in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'' (after the [[Super Mario Maker#Version 1.20|version 1.20]] update) by completing the hard version of [[Gnat Attack]]. When performing a jump as Fighter Fly, the player can hear the high-pitched noise this enemy made in the original ''Mario Bros.'' If the player presses {{button|wii|Padup}} while playing as Fighter Fly, it will turn into a [[Freezie]], which is a foe that also debuted in ''Mario Bros.''

===''Super Mario'' (Kodansha manga)===
In ''[[Super Mario Land (manga)|Super Mario Land]]'', Fighter Flies, depicted like giant anthropomorphic flies (with compound eyes and proboscis), are met in [[Birabuto Kingdom]]. One attaches itself onto [[Mecha Kuribō (character)|Mecha Kuribō]], who is actually [[Princess Peach]] in disguise, making her yell in disgust when the enemy starts slurping with its mouth. Mario quickly defeats it. When Daisy is rescued from [[King Totomesu]], she jumps at Mario and starts to kiss him, only to reveal she was a Fighter Fly in disguise, making Mario gag.
 
===''Super Mario-kun''===
In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Fighter Flies appear in [[Super Mario-kun Volume 3|volume 3]] alongside other ''Super Mario Land'' enemies. One of them is the second enemy to damage Mario, via biting. Later, Mario grabs a [[Super Star]] and defeats them alongside the other enemies.
 
Another Flighter Fly also appears in chapter 9 of [[Super Mario-kun Volume 9|volume 9]], which takes place in a ''Mario Bros.'' styled arena where Mario, Luigi and Yoshi are trapped. It does not play any important role.

Fighter Flies appear as obstacles on the [[Mario Classic Court]] in ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', in a flat 8-bit model form. Like other enemies, they will walk around on the court, obstructing a player's movements. An unused 3D model for a Fighter Fly can be found in the game's files, heavily based off their design from the ''Mario Bros.'' remake in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''.
