They wear helmets that usually match the color of their shell. Hammer Bros. have several times been described as elite members of [[Bowser]]'s [[Bowser's Minions|Koopa Troop]].

'''Hammer Bros.''' (or '''Hammer Brothers''') are a species of [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] that stand upright and throw [[hammers]] at passers-by. They have been around since ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' They have bigger shells than normal Koopas and wear headgear. They can also use special hammers to shrink their enemies. Hammer Bros. have many times been described as the most elite fighters in Bowser's Koopa army. These enemies were originally designed by Kazuaki Morita.

====''Super Mario Bros.'' / ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''====
====''Super Mario Bros.====
[[File:SMB-Hammer Bro Art.png|thumb|left|Artwork from ''Super Mario Bros.'', depicting its original design]]
[[Image:Hammerbrolol.gif|thumb]]
Hammer Brothers appear in ''Super Mario Bros.'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. A total of 20 is encountered in the former game, mostly in pairs, including a pair in [[World 3-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 3-1]], two pairs in [[World 5-2 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 5-2]], two pairs in [[World 7-1 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-1]], one in [[World 7-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-4]] that is [[Impostor Bowser|disguised as Bowser]], eight in [[World 8-3 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-3]], and one in [[World 8-4 (Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-4]] before the true [[Bowser]]. Hammer Brothers throw claw hammers, which always face left and rotate counterclockwise, and jump between the ground and one or two rows of [[Brick Block]]s. Hammer Brothers give 1,000 points when defeated, either from a [[stomp]], being hit from beneath the block they are on, being hit by a [[Koopa Shell|shell]] or a [[fireball]], or contact with [[Invincible Mario]]. A Hammer Brother starts chasing the player character if it is onscreen for about 50 seconds, though Hammer Bros. in ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' begin chasing the player more evidently from [[World 7-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 7-1]] onwards, and they are encountered underwater in [[World 9-1 (Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels)|World 9-1]], sporting a gray depiction in the [[Family Computer Disk System]] release because of the underwater palette. In the ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' release of both games, the hammers thrown by Hammer Brothers are done slightly slower, fly on a larger curve, and make a whistling sound.
Hammer Bros. first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' as enemies who are encountered infrequently. Often, they appear in groups of two, and attack by jumping from rows of [[Brick Block|brick]]s to the ground. Rarely, a Hammer Brother will appear alone. They will occasionally jump; this when the Player can run below them. On a side note, while normally immobile, if the player waited long enough, the Hammer Bros. would charge towards the player.
 
====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
{{multiframe|[[File:HammerBro-Map-SMB3.png]] [[File:HammerBro-Map-SMAS SMB3.png]]<br>[[File:Hammer Bro SMB3 NES sprite.png]] [[File:HammerBro-SMB3-SMAS.png]]|Hammer Brother sprites, from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and its remakes|size=60|align=right}}
Hammer Brothers return in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Their design depicts them with more yellow skin, black helmets, black [[Buzzy Beetle]]-like shells, and throwing mallets instead. There are 19 Hammer Brothers in total, a majority appearing in [[Enemy Course]]s in [[Grass Land]], [[Water Land]], [[Sky Land]], and [[Ice Land]]; the first {{world-link|8|trap|World 8-Hand Traps#First Hand Trap}} is the only proper level to include them. Hammer Bros. and their varieties all share the same world map sprites in the [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] release. Under certain conditions, one of the Hammer Brothers is replaced by a [[Treasure Ship]]. Three more Hammer Brothers appear in [[World-e]] in the [[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3|handheld remake]]: In [[Bowser's Last Stand]], the first of three doors leads to a room with two Hammer Brothers; in [[Koopaling Confusion]], a Hammer Bro is at the start of the second section, stationed by two wooden platforms under the level's third [[Advance Coin]], Behaviorally, Hammer Brothers do not chase the player characters at all. They can be defeated from the same methods as before, in addition to a hammer from [[Hammer Mario]] or the tail of [[Raccoon Mario|Raccoon]] or [[Tanooki Mario]]. Hammer Brothers have a point value of 100, unless they are [[stomp]]ed, giving 1,000 points instead. Variants debuting in the game include [[Boomerang Bro]]thers, which throw boomerangs; [[Fire Bro]]thers, which throw fireballs; [[Sledge Brother]]s, which are large and can create tremors upon landing. None of the variants jump between rows of blocks.
 
A Hammer Bro was [[List of Super Mario Bros. 3 pre-release and unused content|originally planned]] to host a Dice game. This was implemented as late as testing, but was eventually cut.
 
====''Super Mario World''====
Hammer Brothers do not appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'', though a variation of them named [[Amazing Flyin' Hammer Brother]] does appear. Hammer Brothers were considered for inclusion during development.<ref>As can be seen on the {{file link|SMW Preliminary Sheets.jpg|preliminary sprite sheets for ''Super Mario World''}}, which feature the sprites of Hammer Brothers and Sledge Brothers.</ref>
 
====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:NSMBHammerBro.png|frame|left]]
Hammer Bros. return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' They are designed after their look in ''Super Mario Bros.'', also throwing claw hammers as before. They are encountered only in [[World 2-4 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 2-4]], where two are in an area with the third [[Star Coin]]. A similarity with Hammer Bros. as in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' is their appearance in [[Enemy Course]]s from [[World 5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5]] onwards, where defeating them causes a power-up item to appear.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
[[File:NSMBW Hammer Bro Render.png|frame|right]]
Hammer Bros. appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. Hammer Bros. are encountered in [[World 1-3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 1-3]] only; there are two individual ones and one pair of them. Hammer Bros. are the same as before. They cannot be eaten by [[Yoshi]], but he can catch their hammers with his tongue to spit it back at them. Besides Hammer Bros., the [[Boomerang Bro]]s., [[Fire Bro]]s., and [[Sledge Bro]]s. also return, and adds [[Ice Bro]]s., which throw [[Ice Ball]]s.
{{br}}
 
====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
[[File:SMG2 Platform Planet.png|thumb|Screenshot from ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', showing Hammer Bros. in [[Bowser's Galaxy Generator]]]]
Hammer Bros. appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are encountered in [[Bowser's Lava Lair]], [[Bowser Jr.'s Fearsome Fleet]], [[Bowser's Galaxy Generator]], and [[Grandmaster Galaxy]]. Hammer Bros. attack by throwing two hammers aimed at the player character, before leaping elsewhere and repeating. A Hammer Bro is spun out temporarily on its shell if the player character either [[Star Spin|spins]] at or stomps it, giving an opportunity to defeat it on contact; a Hammer Bro can also be defeated from a [[Ground Pound]] or if Yoshi spits one of its hammers at it. Boomerang Bros. also return.
 
====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
Hammer Bros. return in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They are encountered mostly in castle levels. Hammer Bros. behave identically as in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'', though take only one hit to defeat and use the Boomerang Bros.' voice from ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. Hammer Bros. with blue [[+ Clock]]s are encountered in [[Special 8-Bowser]]. Boomerang Bros. also return.
 
====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
Hammer Bros. return in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. They appear only in [[World 2-2 (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World 2-2]], as well as four in the [[Third Course (Coin Challenge Pack A)|third course]] of Challenge Pack A, one at the start of the [[Second Course (Coin Challenge Pack B)|second course]] of Coin Challenge Pack B, fifteen in the [[First Course (Mystery Adventures Pack)|first course]] of the Mystery Adventures Pack, and four in the final section of the [[First Course (Impossible Pack)|first course]] of the Impossible Pack. Hammer Bros. act like they do in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', though the effects of the [[Gold Ring]] turn them into [[Gold Bro]]s., giving them coins to throw instead of hammers.


====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
====''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels====
Hammer Bros. are enemies in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|their port]]. They are encountered in [[Rise of the Piranha Plants]] only in the former game and in [[Piranha Gardens]] and [[All Aboard!]] only, in addition to {{world-link|coin|1|World Coin-1 (New Super Mario Bros. U)}} and {{world-link|coin|2|World Coin-2 (New Super Mario Bros. U)}} in the [[Coin Courses]], plus other challenges. Hammer Bros. are the same as before.
In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', the Japanese ''Super Mario Bros. 2'', Hammer Bros. returned to help King Koopa as he kidnapped [[Princess Peach]] once again. ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' was much like ''Super Mario Bros.'' but still slightly different, so Hammer Bros. behaved a little different from ''Super Mario Bros.'' in the game. However, this game did introduce a new attack pattern for certain Hammer Bros.: some would gradually home in on Mario and Luigi.


====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
====''Super Mario Bros. 3====
Hammer Bros. return in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|its port]]. They behave like they do in ''Super Mario 3D Land'', but their hammers are thrown higher and closer to them, like in the 2D games of the ''Super Mario'' series. Boomerang Bros. and Fire Bros. also return, as well as cat variants in [[Lake Lapcat]] in ''[[Bowser's Fury]]''.
[[Image: HAMMER BRO 3.PNG|thumb|90px|left|A Hammer Bro. with his hammer in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.]]
Although absent from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', Hammer Bros. were given bigger roles in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. In this game, they essentially did what they did in ''Super Mario Bros.'', but were given three new variations: the rare [[Fire Bro.|Fire Bros.]], who spat fire in a manner immensely similar to that of [[Fire Mario]], the [[Boomerang Bro.|Boomerang Bros.]], whose weapons would return to them, and the [[Sledge Bro.|Sledge Bros.]], who were huge and could pound the ground (temporarily immobilizing Mario or Luigi). Also, Hammer Bros. patrolled the map screens, and touching one there would result in a battle with them.


====''Super Mario Maker'' / ''Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Super Mario Maker 2''====
====''Super Mario World====
Hammer Bros. are course elements in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its port]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They can be placed as enemies in any of the game styles, being given unique sprites for the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' style. Hammer Bros. can be eaten by Yoshi, unlike before, with a hammer being spit out afterward. Hammer Bros. with wings applied to them can jump higher. Besides Hammer Bros. are the returning [[Sledge Bro]]s. and [[Fire Bro]]s., with the latter being in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' game style of ''Super Mario Maker 2'' only.
[[image:HammerBroSmallAni.gif|thumb|]]
Normal Hammer Bros. were absent from ''[[Super Mario World]]''; instead, two variations of them appeared. One of these variations, the [[Amazing Flyin' Hammer Bro.]], was a stout Hammer Bro. riding a winged platform. The other was the [[Sumo Bro.]], which could create thunderbolts that exploded upon impact with the ground.


An [[List of Super Mario Maker pre-release and unused content|unused death animation]] for them in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style can be found in the files of ''Super Mario Maker''.
====''New Super Mario Bros.====
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Hammer Brothers appeared once again as infrequent enemies, found only in 2-4 as regular enemies. Also the [[Sledge Bros.]], the [[Fire Bros.]], and the [[Boomerang Bros.]] appear. There, Sledge Bro only appear once in the game on [[World 8-7 (NSMB)|World 8-7]] as with the only appearance of the Fire bros in the game. Boomerang Bros appear as somewhat infrequent baddies in the game, found in 2-5, 7-3, and 8-7. Also similar to ''Super Mario Bros 3'' is the Hammer Bro on the map, that when killed drops an item. They started appearing in World 5. Sledge Bros in the game were mistaken as [[Sumo Bros.]], which are a different type of Hammer Bro. who only appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Like in ''Super Mario Bros.'', the Hammer Brothers of ''New Super Mario Bros.'' would attack Mario or Luigi by hopping up and down in place and lobbing their hammers.


====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii====
[[File:SMO E3 2017 screenshot 12.png|thumb|left|Screenshot from ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', showing a regular and a captured Hammer Bro]]
Hammer Bros. appear once again in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', along with Boomerang Bros, Fire Bros., Sledge Bros., and a new variation called [[Ice Bro.]], who can throw Ice Balls that freeze Mario and Co.. Strangely enough, Hammer Bros. only appeared in World 1-3, while some of their sub-species made more common appearances.
Hammer Bros. are enemies in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. They are revealed to have blue spiky hair with yellow tips. Hammer Bros. are encountered in the [[Dark Side]]; [[Metro Kingdom]]; [[Luncheon Kingdom]], wearing chef hats and throwing frying pans; and [[Moon Kingdom]], wearing white top hats. The ''Super Mario Bros.'' iteration of Hammer Bros. appear in some 8-bit segments in the [[Cloud Kingdom]] and Luncheon Kingdom. A Hammer Bro is vulnerable to being [[capture]]d if its headwear is removed by [[Cappy]]. As a Hammer Bro, Mario can throw hammers to attack, not unlike the Hammer Mario form, and can hit [[? Block]]s; a captured Hammer Bro in the Luncheon Kingdom can destroy blocks of cheese with its frying pans.


====''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''====
This is the first time to feature both Hammer Bros. and Yoshis in a game that's not a spin-off title. It is also the first time to show Yoshi's inability to eat them.
Hammer Bros. reappear in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''. Like in the ''Super Mario Maker'' games, they can be eaten by Yoshi.


===''Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!''===
====''Super Mario Galaxy 2====
[[File:AnimeHammerBro.png|thumb|A Hammer Brother preparing to throw a hammer in ''Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]''
[[Image:SMG2 HammerBro.png|thumb|left|A Hammer Bro. attacking [[Mario]] and [[Yoshi]].]]
No Hammer Brothers are part of Bowser's invasion force at the start of ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'', but one does appear later on. This Hammer Brother (which, depending on the selected scene, is inconsistently depicted as both rather large and completely to-scale) is assigned to guard a cave where a recurring pair of [[Goomba]]s trap Mario, Luigi, and [[Haru-ōji|Kibidango]]. However, Luigi (who was searching for [[coin]]s at the time) digs an escape tunnel, and they escape from the Hammer Bro without being caught. In a last-ditch attempt to retrieve the prisoners, the Hammer Bro throws hammers at a cliff that Mario, Luigi, and Kibidango are trekking across, and causes the top of the cliff that Kibidango and Mario are on to fall, smashing the area that the Hammer Bro is on and burying him beneath several rocks.
Hammer Bros. appear in the [[Wii]] game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', marking the first time that they are seen in a three-dimensional ''Mario'' game that is not a spin-off title. In this game, they are much larger than in their previous games. Yoshi can eat the Hammer Bros.' hammers and spit them out as weapons. Mario can defeat a Hammer Bro. by [[Star Spin|spinning]] them. The Hammer Bro. will be knocked on its shell. Mario can walk into him to defeat it.


Robed, book-carrying Hammer Brothers are later seen acting as singers during Bowser and Peach's wedding towards the end of the film, and another Hammer Brother is seen applying makeup to Princess Peach for the said event.
===''The Great Mission to Save Princess Peach===
[[Image:AnimeHammerBro.jpg|thumb|A Hammer Bro. preparing to toss a hammer in ''[[The Great Mission to Save Princess Peach]]''.]]
Although no Hammer Bros. appeared amongst Bowser's invasion force at the beginning of the ''Mario'' anime film ''[[The Great Mission to Save Princess Peach]]'', an individual one did appear later. This Hammer Bro. (which, depending on the selected scene, was depicted as both rather large and completely to-scale, likely due to mistakes) acted as the guardian of a small cave where a recurring pair of [[Goomba]]s had trapped Mario, Luigi, and [[Kibidango]]. Luigi (who was actually searching for [[Coin]]s at the time) eventually forged an escape hole out of the cave; with only minor interference from the Hammer Bro., Mario's crew managed to rush out of their horrible trap. However, in a last ditch attempt to retrieve his prisoners, the Hammer Bro. began his hammer-throwing attacks on a cliff that Mario, Luigi, and their canine friend were trekking; despite the enemy's efforts, Mario and his companions managed to get away from the Hammer Brother once and for all. Robed, book-carrying Hammer Bros. were later seen acting as singers during Bowser and Peach's wedding towards the end of the film and another Hammer Bro. applied makeup to Princess Peach for the said event, although Mario and Luigi never encountered these Hammer Bros. and they were therefore rather minor to the movie itself.

{{quote|We got a score to settle, sink wimps!”<br>“Yeah! It's plumber pummelin' time!|'''Hammer Brothers'''|"[[The Trojan Koopa]]"}}
In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', Hammer Bros. first appeared in the episode "[[Do You Princess Toadstool Take This Koopa...?]]" where two of them appear to attack Mario and Luigi when the two escape King Koopa's dungeon, only to accidentally hit each other on the head with their hammers instead. The second and last appearance of Hammer Bros. in the show was in the episode "[[The Trojan Koopa]]", where they appear as main antagonists and act as guards of King Koopa's latest fortress.
[[File:HammerBrosTSMBSS.png|thumb|The Hammer Brothers from ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' episode "The Trojan Koopa"]]
Two twin Hammer Brothers<ref>{{cite|url=www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/super-mario-bros-show-ad-promo-mario-1999518618|title=''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' writer's bible|publisher=WorthPoint|language=en}}</ref> appear in the episodes "[[Do You Princess Toadstool Take this Koopa...?]]" and "[[The Trojan Koopa]]" of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' They resemble Koopa Troopas, but with pinker face, yellow spots, helmets, and hammers. The Hammer Brothers in "Do You Princess Toadstool Take this Koopa...?" accidentally hit each other on the head with their hammers while intending to target Mario and Luigi. The only episode of ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' where Hammer Brothers have a speaking role is "The Trojan Koopa," where they are guards of King Koopa's island fortress.

===''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3===
[[File:Hammer Brothers in TAoSMB3.png||left|thumb|Two Hammer Brothers in the ''Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' episode "Oh, Brother!"]]
In ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Hammer Bros. made minor appearances in a few episodes and their appearance changed once more, this time to resemble better their in-game appearances. Although Hammer Bros. didn't make many appearances, their larger counterparts, the Sledge Bros., were quite prevalent.
Hammer Brothers appear in the episodes "[[Oh, Brother!]]" and "[[Toddler Terrors of Time Travel]]" of ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Their design was altered to resemble theirs in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. Two Hammer Brothers in "Oh, Brother!" apprehend Mario after he is pulled into the dungeon. The Hammer Brothers in "Toddler Terrors of Time Travel" put onboard the [[Bowser's Airship|Doom Ship]]; one in particular struggles to carry the crate,<ref>{{cite|quote=I must be getting tired... This crate is 10 times as heavy as it was before!|author=Hammer Brother|title="Toddler Terrors of Time Travel" - ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''|publisher=DIC Entertainment|language=en-us|date=September 29, 1990}}</ref> contrary to one carrying four at once.

===Nintendo Comics System===
===Nintendo Comics System===
Hammer Brothers are antagonists in the stories "[[The Fish That Should've Gotten Away]]" and "[[The Kingdom Enquirer]]" of the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]''. In the former, Hammer Brothers are part of the crowd of monsters who chase [[Mario]], and in the latter, several Hammer Brothers bother [[Toad]] at one point.
In [[Nintendo Comics System]], several Hammer Bros. appeared in the crowd of monsters chasing Mario in the story "[[The Fish That Should've Gotten Away]]". Several Hammer Bros., who didn't wield any hammers, also appeared to pester Toad, who had become a reporter, in the comic "[[The Kingdom Enquirer]]"; aside from these two appearances, Hammer Bros. also appeared in several of the false advertisements that were featured in the comics.


===Nintendo Adventure Books===
===''Super Mario Bros.'' movie===
A pair of Hammer Brothers bring Luigi to Bowser in ''[[Koopa Capers]]'' after a [[magic carpet|flying carpet]] deposits him outside Bowser's Castle. If Luigi decides to look around the castle for clues about [[Wendy|Wendy O. Koopa]]'s disappearance, Bowser tries to call in a Hammer Brother to act as an escort for him, but Luigi declines the offer.
In the [[Super Mario Bros. (movie)|''Super Mario Bros.'' movie]] a tattoo shop called "Hammer X Bros.", a reference to Hammer Bros., can be seen through a window of the [[Boom Boom Bar]]. Additionally, the uniforms of [[Bowser|King Koopa]]'s police force in the ''Super Mario Bros.'' movie have a slight resemblance to the armor traditionally worn by Hammer Bros., while the helmet worn by them is largely identical to a Hammer Bros'.


While traveling through the [[Koopahari Desert]] in ''[[Pipe Down!]]'', the Mario Brothers bring up a previous close call with some Hammer Brothers during a past visit to the region.  
===''Yoshi's Safari===
In ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]'', Hammer Bros., as well as Boomerang Bros. and Sledge Bros., would occasionally appear as mini-bosses; in this game, Hammer Bros. would attack Mario and [[Yoshi]] by quickly throwing hammers at them, which would need to be dodged or knocked away by a blast of Mario's [[Super Scope]]. After being blasted repeatedly by Mario's Super Scope, a Hammer Bro. would be defeated.


In ''[[Dinosaur Dilemma]]'', two Hammer Brothers can be found sleeping in Bowser's Castle by Mario and Yoshi, and are woken up by their cuckoo clock as the two try to sneak out of the room. Depending on how the reader solves the accompanying puzzle, the Hammer Brothers either knock the heroes out and make a meal out of them, or their hammer blows keep missing, and weaken the floor to the point that they go falling through it while Mario and Yoshi escape.

In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', Hammer Bros. were made completely different. Like their predecessors, these Hammer Bros. had yellow skin, however, instead of green shells with green armor, the Hammer Bros. of ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'' had black shells with black armor. Also, their hammers became wooden. They are also significantly larger than a normal Hammer Bro. (but presumably not larger than a Sledge Bro.). Additionally, these Hammer Bros. speak fondly of their hammers, as if their wooden weapons were sentient, living beings.


In ''[[Flown the Koopa]]'', if the reader chooses to have Luigi be the head of a Brachiosaurus costume the Mario Brothers don, they run into a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Depending on how the accompanying puzzle is solved, the T-Rex can turn out to be two disguised Hammer Brothers, who see through the Mario Bros.' costume, use some rubber cement to seal them in it, and capture them with the intent of making a meal out of the two.
In ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', the Hammer Bros. were the leaders of the [[Koopa Troop]]'s forces in [[Mushroom Way]]. They were ordered to capture any intruders, which they did when the fungus [[Toad]] tried to pass through [[Mushroom Way]] to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. However, [[Mario]] showed up to rescue his friend. As a result, a battle erupted between the hero of the Mushroom Kingdom and the two Hammer Bros. During the battle, the Hammer Bros. pounded Mario with their hammers, and even used the special move [[Hammer Time]], by throwing multiple hammers at the plumber. When Mario defeated one of the brothers, the remaining brother used the move [[Valor Up]] to increase his defense. However, even though his defense was boosted, the second Hammer Bro. was defeated by Mario. After the fight, Toad was freed, Mario earned a [[Flower Jar]], and the hero even picked up his defeated enemies' [[Hammer|Hammers]] to use in battle.

Later in ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', a single, green colored Hammer Bro. named [[Dr. Topper]] appears in [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Keep]], which has been taken over by the [[Smithy Gang]]; Dr. Topper is not an enemy, per se, but he will block Mario's progress through Bowser's Keep, unless Mario solves his various puzzles and riddles.

Hammer Bros. are enemies in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]]. They have large bodies and hammers made of wood. The remake updates them to use their common design while retaining elements such as the black coloring of their shells and helmets, as well as the wooden hammers they wield.
 
A Hammer Bro appears at the end of [[Mushroom Way]], and [[Mario]] must battle him to proceed to [[Toad Town|Mushroom Kingdom]]. If [[Toad]] has been previously rescued from [[Goomba]]s and [[Koopa Paratroopa|Paratroopa]]s, the Hammer Bro also captures him in his rush to get to the castle, and needs to be saved by Mario. Although only one appears on the field, a second Hammers Bro appears in battle. During the battle, the Hammer Bros. pound Mario with their hammers, and occasionally use the special move [[Hammer Time]], throwing multiple hammers at him. When Mario defeats one of the brothers, the remaining brother uses the move [[Valor Up]] to increase his defense. When defeated, they yield a [[Flower Jar]], and leave a [[Hammer]] behind.
 
Later in the game, a green-colored Hammer Bro named [[Dr. Topper]] appears in [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Keep]], which has been taken over by the [[Smithy Gang]]; Dr. Topper is not an enemy. Instead, he blocks Mario's progress through Bowser's Keep unless Mario solves his various puzzles and riddles.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', Hammer Bros. will occasionally appear in the background of the [[Mushroom Kingdom (stage)|Mushroom Kingdom]] stage.
In the first two games of the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], Hammer Bros. only make a background appearance. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', Hammer Bros. appear in the background of the [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros.)|Mushroom Kingdom]] stage. Similarly, in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Hammer Bros. in the background of the game's version of [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Smash Bros. Melee)|Mushroom Kingdom]].


Since ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', a Hammer Bro has appeared as an [[Assist Trophy]] character throughout the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series Once released from the Assist Trophy, the Hammer Bro throws hammers at the opponents, damaging them. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', the Hammer Bro is invincible, like with most other Assist Trophy characters. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Hammer Bro can be attacked, and if it takes enough damage, Hammer Bro flips upside-down and falls off-screen, similarly to how they act when defeated in ''Super Mario Bros.''
====''Super Smash Bros. Melee====
In the Nintendo GameCube game ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Hammer Bros. have the same role that they had on this game's predecessor, appearing only in the Mushroom Kingdom stage background.


Hammer Bros. appear in a few of the single-player campaigns throughout the series. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Hammer Bros. are enemies in [[smashwiki:Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]]. One appears to have helped steal [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[banana hoard]] and is tracked down by Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong.

In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Hammer Bros., along with [[Koopatrol]]s and [[Magikoopa]]s, are the elite of Bowser's forces. In this game, Hammer Bros. attack Mario by either throwing one hammer at him or several, weak hammers at him. Hammer Bros.' attacks can occasionally [[Tiny (status effect)|shrink]] Mario on hit, reducing his Attack power for the duration.

In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Hammer Bros., along with [[Koopatrol]]s and [[Magikoopa]]s, were the elite of Bowser's forces. In this game, Hammer Bros. would attack Mario by either throwing one hammer at him or several, weak hammers at him. Additionally, Hammer Bros. will occasionally throw a hammer at Mario which can cause him to shrink in size and diminish his attack power.


A Hammer Bro can be first encountered in ''Paper Mario'' in the [[Shy Guy's Toy Box]], if Princess Peach tells Bowser and [[Kammy Koopa]] that one of the things that Mario fears most is a Hammer Bro, Kammy Koopa later warps a Hammer Bro into the Shy Guy's Toy Box to guard a treasure chest. Hammer Bros. are also encountered throughout Bowser's Castle, where they act as guards, attacking Mario if he approaches. Additionally, a Hammer Bro by the name of [[Mr. Hammer]] runs a quiz called the [[64th Trivia Quiz-Off]], in which [[Princess Peach]] participates.

Also, a Hammer Bro. by the name of [[Mr. Hammer]] ran a quiz called the [[64th Trivia Quiz-off]], in which [[Princess Peach]] participated in. Not only did Peach and [[Twink]] end up gaining new information about the whereabouts of the next Star Spirit, but ended up winning prizes, as well. A [[Jammin' Jelly]] for winning the competition, and a [[Sneaky Parasol]] just for participating.


====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
Notably, Hammer Bros. in the ''Paper Mario'' series have blue helmets instead of green ones.

[[File:Hamma Jamma.png|thumb|A Hammer Bro from ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''.]]
Hammer Bros. return in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. They are encountered mainly in [[Rogueport Underground]] after beating Chapter 5, as well as in [[Twilight Town]], during Bowser and [[Kammy Koopa|Kammy]]'s attack on the area. Hammer Bros. attack identically as as in ''Paper Mario'', but lose the ability to shrink Mario. Also, in Bowser's first scenario, two Hammer Bros. converse, with one of them referring to something he witnessed where Bowser was apparently swooning over a portrait of Princess Peach, only for the other Hammer Bro to attempt to hint that he should stop talking as Bowser is right behind him. Although Bowser claims that the story was funny and beckons the surprised Hammer Bro to continue, both deny that he was funny. Hammer Bros. are sometimes part of the [[audience]], and if Mario fails the action command of a hammer attack, they can prepare to throw their hammer at him.


There are some other Hammer Bros. [[Hamma Jamma]] has a team at the [[Glitz Pit]] is with his two brothers, [[Hamma, Bamma, and Flare#Bamma|Bamma]], a [[Boomerang Bro]] and [[Hamma, Bamma, and Flare#Flare|Flare]], a [[Fire Bro]]. Hamma Jamma also speaks of his father and even his grandfather on occasion, the former of which he mentions is a [[List of implied species#Business Bro|Business Bro]].

Hammer Bros. also appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. In this game they have the same attack pattern as in ''Paper Mario'' and are mainly found in [[Rogueport Sewers]] after beating Chapter 5. A bunch of Hammer Bros. also appear when Bowser and Kammy summon their army to fight [[Lord Crump]] and the [[X-Naut]]s in [[Twilight Town]].

Hammer Bros. return in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. Most have been hypnotized by [[Nastasia]] into serving [[Count Bleck]]. A few in [[The Bitlands]] still serve Bowser. Hammer Bros. also appear in the [[Flipside Pit of 100 Trials]]. The game introduces a shadowy counterpart, [[Dark Hammer Bro]]. There is a specific [[Hammer Bro captain|Hammer Bro]] and a [[Private Koopa|Koopa private]] who help [[Princess Peach]] at [[Castle Bleck]].


====''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''====
There is also a Hammer Bro. named [[Hamma Jamma]] in the [[Glitz Pit]]. His team is with his two brothers, [[Bamma]], a [[Boomerang Brother]] and [[Flare]], a [[Fire Brother]]. Hamma Jamma will also also speak of his father and even his grandfather on occasion, the former of which he mentions is a [[Business Brother]], apparently some sort of businessman version of a Hammer Brother.
Hammer Bros. return in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]''. They are encountered in most worlds. Hammer Bros. attack by throwing hammers in the air to hit Mario from above or by throwing them straight at him. The hammer throw attack can come at Mario very fast so the player must be prepared for this attack. This attack as well can throw off timing by either blocking too early and the Hammer Bro waits for at least two seconds or Hammer Bros. can also throw the hammer before the player even has a chance to block for one second. Hammer Bros. also toss hammers outside of battle, which also damages Mario if he is hit. A glitch in the game has one Hammer Bro in [[Shy Guy Jungle]] standing in mid-air. Along with Hammer Bros., [[Snifit]]s, [[Spiny|Spinies]] and [[Scaredy Rat]]s are the enemies that can throw off timing.

===''Mario Kart'' series===
When Mario and Luigi reach Bowser's Castle they encounter traditional Hammer Bros. that (like the rest of the Koopa Troop) had been duped by [[Bowletta]] into defending the castle. They attack as usual, by throwing their hammers at Mario and Luigi. By watching the [[hammer]]'s shadow, the player can tell if the hammer will hit Mario or Luigi, who can knock the hammer away with their own hammers. Also, if the Hammer Bro. waves his hammer before throwing it, he will throw it at Luigi, but if he throws it straight away, he will target Mario. Sometimes, a Hammer Bro. will throw multiple Hammers (up to three). They are healed by fire and have 100 hp. They are weak to thunder.

Only one pair of Hammer Bros. appeared in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', and these individuals are known as the [[L33t Hamm3r Broz.]] In this game, they were reluctantly brainwashed by the [[Shroob]]s and forced to guard the [[Vim Factory]] from any intruders (or "pwn teh n00bs", as they put it). They were also notable for using [[Wikipedia: Leet|leetspeak]] in their hypnotized forms, which caused a great phenomenon on the internet. Although the two L33t Hamm3r Broz. successfully "pwned" Mario and Luigi, [[Baby Mario]] and [[Baby Luigi]] were left behind. The L33t Hamm3r Broz. were forced to "continue their pwnership", and went into battle with the babies. They were eventually defeated, though, and proved to be allies. As a reward for saving them from the Shroobs, they gave Baby Mario and Baby Luigi hammers and trained them in hammer use.

The original version gives them white pupil-less eyes, a more hunched and somewhat portly posture, and no shoes. Hammer Bros. are encountered in [[Bowser's Castle]]. They assist [[Gunner Guy]]s and [[Boo]]s, which are the only ways of encountering them. Hammer Bros. are healed by fire whilst vulnerable to thunder. Hammer Bros. attack by throwing hammers, jumping if it targets [[Luigi]], otherwise it targets Mario. A Hammer Bro's hammer attack is countered with the targeted Mario Bro's hammer. After losing at least half of its HP, a Hammer Bro begins to throw two hammers while attacking. Variants debuting include [[Border Bro]]s., [[Beanerang Bro]] (named Boomerang Bro in the original), [[Yo Bro]], the [[Limbo Bro]] and their [[Elite Limbo Bro|Elite]] counterparts, and [[Chomp Bro]].


Hammer Bros. are enemies and allies in the ''[[Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser]]'' mode. Hammer Bros. are Ranged troopers and attack by throwing their hammers. Their [[Special Skill (Mario & Luigi series)|Special Skill]], Rain of Pain, involves them throwing multiple hammers at surrounding foes. They team up with the [[Hammerhead Bros.]] in their first encounter at "[[For the Love of Hammers]]." They fight [[Captain Goomba (Mario & Luigi series)|Captain Goomba]]'s squad to decide whether to join them or not. The Hammer Bros. are confident enough that their hammer crafting can create the [[Ultra Hammer]].
====''Mario Party 5====
Hammer Bros. made their first [[Nintendo GameCube]] appearance as [[Hammer Bro. Orb|an orb]] in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' & as a referee in the mini-game [[Fight Cards]].


====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''====
====''Mario Party 7====
[[File:Mario, Luigi, and the babies meeting the Hammer Bros.png|thumb|The brainwashed Hammer Bros.]]
In ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', the Hammer Bros. had the same role they had had in the fifth game of this series. They can also be found in the mini-game [[Hammer Spammer]] as the main obstacles.
Only one pair of Hammer Bros. appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. The [[Shroob]]s brainwash them with mind-controlling antenna and order them to guard the [[Vim Factory]]. While mind-controlled, the Hammer Bros. introduce themselves as the '''L33T HAMM3R BROZ.''', and speak in the Internet "language" known as "[[Wikipedia:Leet|1337-speak]]" (pronounced "leet speak"), as well as with capital letters. In the Japanese version, they speak completely in {{iw|wikipedia|katakana}}, as opposed to {{iw|wikipedia|hiragana}},<ref name=Japanese>{{cite|url=tcrf.net/Mario_%26_Luigi:_Partners_in_Time/Regional_Differences#Hammer_Bros.27_Dialogue|title=''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|language=en|accessdate=July 31, 2024}}</ref> and in the Korean version, their speech is full of spelling and spacing errors. In French versions, they drop the 1337 aspect of their speech (with the exception of their names, which still render the "L33T" part) in favor of SMS-like speech containing various spelling errors. In German versions, they do not speak in 1337, but in broken sentences. The Spanish translation of the game removes the 1337 aspect of the characters entirely, and the only different speech pattern is robotic all-caps. It is possible that this happened due to difficulties with localization, as 1337-speak is extremely uncommon among online Spanish communities. One of them introduces themselves as the "L33T HAMM3R BROZ." due to the way they speak in the English version.


When [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Baby Mario]], and [[Baby Luigi]] arrive in the Vim Factory, they are instantly confronted by the "L33T HAMM3R BROZ." After Mario and Luigi are captured by the factory's automated defenses, Baby Mario and Baby Luigi are forced to battle the Hammer Bros. In battle, the Hammer Bros. have 100 [[Heart Point|HP]] (90 in non-American versions) and attack by using the [[Knockback Bros.]] technique, a [[Bros. Attack]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Using his hammer, one Hammer Bro smashes the other into a ball, then hits him into either Baby Mario or Baby Luigi. To avoid the attack, the babies have to jump over the ball Hammer Bro as he approaches. Sometimes, the Hammer Bro's hammer breaks, sending the ball bouncing towards a baby. In this case, the baby brother should not [[jump]], as the balled brother simply bounces over the baby's head.
====''Mario Party 8====
Hammer Bro. makes a debut in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', as a playable character. He can be unlocked by beating the [[Star Battle Arena]]. In [[Bowser's Warped Orbit]], Bowser will call either him or [[Blooper]] to defeat the character that the player's playing as in a Star Battle Arena-Styled duel. Like [[Yoshi]], Hammer Bro. cannot speak English.  Instead, he speaks gibberish which could possibly be the Koopa language. It is unknown if the playable Hammer Bro. in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' is a specific character, or a different one each time, but it is probably the same one every time.


[[File:Hammer Bros. Knockback Bros..png|thumb|left|The Hammer Bros. fighting the Baby Mario Bros.]]
====''Mario Party DS====
After one Hammer Bro is defeated (or if one of the Hammer Bros. is unable to attack), the other one is forced to fight by himself. To attack, the sole Hammer Bro tosses spinning hammers that roll on the ground. To defend against this attack, the Baby Mario Bros. have to jump over the hammers as they approach. To determine which baby he is aiming for, the player needs to watch what he does before throwing. If he hops, he throws it at Baby Mario, and if he rolls his eyes around, he throws it at Baby Luigi. Ultimately, Baby Mario and Baby Luigi have to work together and defeat the second Hammer Bro. Unlike most bosses in ''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time'', they use the same defeat animation of a normal enemy; the same thing happens with [[Junior Shrooboid]], the [[Shroob]]s, and [[Kamek]]. Also, in the [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]], the word "boss" is missing from the stat box.
Hammer Bro. has also appeared as a boss in ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', acting as the boss of Toadette's Music Room. The player with the most stars battled him in a [[minigame]]. In the minigame, the player had to touch the same drums as the Hammer Bro. in limited time. Hammer Bro. apparently speaks English in this ''Mario Party DS'', saying things like, what seems to be, "Yo, yo!" when they landed on the drums before launching them to a random space, and laughing at the player when he's hit by his music notes. His voice is similar to his voice in ''Mario Strikers Charged Football''.


In defeating the Hammer Bros., the Baby Mario Bros. destroyed their mind-control antennas. Free from Shroob influence, the Hammer Bros. begin to speak normally again. They also comment on the strange manner of speaking they were just using. Grateful for being released, the Hammer Bros. give the babies two spare [[hammer]]s they were holding, and teach them how to use the hammer and [[Baby Drill]].
===''Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix===
 
During ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]'' two Hammer Brothers blocked the entrance of [[Mushroom Park]] to stop Mario (or [[Luigi]]) and Toad from getting the next [[Music Key]] from Wario. However, they would only let them pass if Mario danced against them and won. If the Hammer Brothers lost, Mario (or Luigi) was able to get into Mushroom Park.
When the babies go into the vents and encounter a [[Spiny Shroopa]], the Hammer Bros. teach them how to use the hammers in battle. Later, when the babies rescue Mario and Luigi and encounter two more Spiny Shroopas, the Hammer Bros. return and show how to use the hammer while piggybacking in battle.
{{br}}
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
Hammer Bros. do not appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', but Boomerang Bros. and Fire Bros. are encountered as enemies in [[Somnom Woods]] and [[Neo Bowser Castle]].
{{br}}
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
Hammer Bros. are enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. Some Hammer Bros. [[Stuff Retrieval|steal all of the Trio's Battle Command Blocks]] at one point, prompting them to recover it. Hammer Bros. can only be counterattacked before receiving the [[Flee]] comman. Hammer Bros. are commonly encountered in the [[Twinsy Tropics Dungeon]], as well as stronger variants on the clouds above [[Sunbeam Plains]]. A Hammer Bro is also fought in [[Neo Bowser Castle]]. Hammer Bros. attack in battle by throwing hammers at the targeted player character, sometimes jumping while doing so; if not, the hammer is avoidable by jumping. After throwing hammers, the Hammer Bro charges at the target, and take damage if jumped on. A Hammer Bro sometimes attacks by throwing a hammer into the air with another of its kind or its introduced [[Paper Hammer Bro|paper counterpart]]; they sometimes swap hammers before throwing. If a Paper Hammer Bro helps, their hammer falls after the Hammer Bro's, unlike if two are present. The attack is countered by the targeted bro's hammer.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
Hammer Bros. are enemies and recruitable allies in the ''[[Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' mode in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''. They are weak against [[Parabones]].
 
===''Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix''===
Two Hammer Brothers are enemies in ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]''. They block the entrance of [[Mushroom Park]] until the player wins in a dance-off against them.


===''Mario Baseball'' series===
===''Mario Baseball'' series===
[[File:HammerBro-Batting-MSS.png|thumb|A Hammer Bro prepares to bat in ''Mario Super Sluggers'']]
====''Mario Superstar Baseball====
A Hammer Bro appears as a playable character in both games of the [[Mario Baseball (series)|''Mario Baseball'' series]]: ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. Both games also feature a [[Fire Bro]] and a [[Boomerang Bro]] as playable character, though both of them are treated as palette swaps of Hammer Bro, and all three of them are teammates of [[Bowser]] in each game's Challenge mode. Hammer Bro uses a large hammer as his baseball bat. While Hammer Bro and Boomerang Bro use a hammer and boomerang respectively for batting, Fire Bro uses a standard bat with painted flames on it.
A Hammer Bro., as well as a Boomerang Bro. and a Fire Bro., appear as teammates of Bowser in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]''. Hammer Bro. can be unlocked by beating ''Mario Superstar Baseball's'' Adventure Mode as Bowser. The other two types appear as alternate versions, with the Fire Bro being slower but more powerful, and the Boomerang Bro being less powerful but slightly faster and better at defense. Hammer Bro bats with a large hammer. Fire Bro. uses a normal red baseball bat and Boomerang Bro uses a boomerang. Boomerang Bro also puts a noticeable curve on all his hits much like Boo and King Boo.


In ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', Hammer Bro can be unlocked by completing Challenge Mode as Bowser. Fire Bro and Boomerang Bro function as separate characters, but statistically are nearly identical to Hammer Bros. (barring Fire Bro's run speed, which is slightly lower than the other two). Boomerang Bro puts a noticeable curve on all his hits, much like Boo and King Boo.
====''Mario Super Sluggers====
In ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' he is a playable character along with Boomerang Bro and Fire Bro. Unlike in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'' though, Hammer Bro. and his two variations are available from the get-go, and their fielding abilities are better than before. This is the second game where they can speak clearly.


In ''Mario Super Sluggers'', Hammer Bro, along with Boomerang Bro and Fire Bro, are now playable from the start, each exhibiting more varied stats than before. They have new fielding moves, during which they throw their weapon out a short distance and catch the ball. All of them use their standard voice introduced in ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]''.
===''Super Princess Peach===
{{br}}
Hammer Bros. had a large role in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', where they seem to be [[Bowser]]'s most trusted minions. In this game, it is they that storm Peach's Castle and kidnap Mario, Luigi, and the [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s. They are major characters, and they are led by the [[Army Hammer Bro]]. They also appear as generic enemies towards the middle of the game, and even Amazing Flyin' Hammer Bros., who were absent from games for some time, reappear. Their militant role was distracted, though, by the wild [[Vibe Scepter]], resulting in sub-species such as the [[Calm Hammer Brother]] and [[Calm Amazing Flyin' Hammer Brother]].


===''Super Princess Peach''===
===''Mario Football'' series===
[[File:SPPHammerBro.png|frame|left]]
====''Mario Smash Football====
Hammer Bros. are enemies in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]''. They are led by [[Army Hammer Bro]], and kidnap [[Mario]] and the others at Peach's Castle in the opening. [[Amazing Flyin' Hammer Brother|A. F. H. Bro]]s. return, and both it and Hammer Bro received [[Calm Hammer Bro]] and [[C. A. F. H. Bro]] varieties, respectively.
In ''[[Mario Smash Football]]'', Hammer Bros. appear as teamates and sidekicks to the game's captains. They are an offensive teammate.


===''Mario Strikers'' series===
====''Mario Strikers Charged Football====
====''Super Mario Strikers''====
[[Image:HammerbroMSC.PNG|thumb|left|A Hammer Bro. in ''[[Mario Strikers Charged Football]]''.]]
Hammer Bros. are teammates in ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]''. They are billed offensive players, despite lacking distinction in gameplay.
Hammer Bros. also appear as offensive teammates in ''[[Mario Strikers Charged Football]]''. Here, they are very good at shooting and passing the ball, but are unable to tackle very well. Hammer Bro. is also very slow in this game, possibly because he carries several hammers strapped to his back. Every time he takes a shot, he pulls one of these hammers out of the sling on his back.


====''Mario Strikers Charged''====
Hammer Bro. also pulls out these hammers when hitting, faking, and using his skillshot. His [[Fake]] allows him to pull a giant hammer out of nowhere, and smash it on the ground to blast anyone he hits away. However, this move doesn't have a large range. It is nonetheless a decent defense, as it will temporarily paralyze players that come in contact with it.
[[File:Hammer Bro Orange Yoshi MSC.jpg|thumb|left|x150px|Artwork from ''Mario Strikers Charged'']]
Hammer Bros. are teammates in ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''. They have hammers in a sling on their back. Hammer Bros. are billed offensive players, as before. Hammer Bros. have high shooting and passing capabilities, whilst lacking the ability to tackle and being slow. A Hammer Bro always uses a hammer when either shooting, tackling, hitting, faking, or using his [[Skillshot]], the [[Hammer Throw (Mario Strikers Charged)|Hammer Throw]]. Hammer Bro's [[Deke]] involves him smashing a giant hammer onto the ground, blasting away whoever is hit.


===''Mario Golf'' series===
His [[Skillshot]] is the [[Hammer Throw (Skillshot)|Hammer Throw]], which, once fully charged, causes Hammer Bro. to leap into the air and toss hammers at the Kritter, the goalkeeper, nailing him to the ground and thus immobilizing him, which leaves the goal un-guarded for a few seconds. Once the Kritter is stuck to the ground, the Hammer Bro. smacks the ball in for an easy shot. However, the Hammer Throw has limited range, meaning that it must be used very close to the goal to be effective. This shot occasionally misses if done from the side, but the player may get lucky if there's a teammate nearby who can score before Kritter gets back up.
Hammer Bros. appear only twice in the [[Mario Golf (series)|''Mario Golf'' series]], both times as non-playable characters. In ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'', Hammer Bros. are featured in the [[Castle Club]] mode. In ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]'', there are Hammer Bros. scattered around [[Bonny Greens]]'s practice area.


===''Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker''===
Hammer Bro. was also given a standard voice in this game, in oppose to his computer voice. This is the first of two games where Hammer Bro. actually speaks. They typically exhibit a very cheery and positive attitude.
Hammer Bros. return in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' and [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|its ports]]. They are encountered in [[Drift-Along Canyon]], [[Battle Tower Blitz]] (one of them jumps between [[Goomba Tower]]s), and the port-exclusive [[Uptown, Downtown]]. If interacted with using a pointer/touch screen, Hammer Bros. jump to a new position immediately after being no longer stunned. A Hammer Bros. cannot be stunned while jumping.  


===''Mario Sports Superstars''===
==Tools==
Hammer Bro is a selectable sidekick in soccer and baseball in ''[[Mario Sports Superstars]]''. It is billed a Power type. [[Boomerang Bro]]s. are alternate colors in soccer and baseball while [[Fire Bro]]s. appear in baseball only.

Hammer Bros. are opponents in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]''. They are encountered during the missions [[Sure Shot Challenge (Advanced)]] and [[Defeat Bowser's Minions!]] of [[Inferno Island]]; in the former, a Hammer Bro helps two [[Fire Bro]]s. with pitching, and in the latter, ten throw hammers at the player character as they deflect them, defeating the Hammer Bros. and causing Fire Bros. to appear afterward. Hammer Bros. are members of the audience, with some wearing caps and shirts for the participating characters.

{{multiframe|[[File:SMBDX - Hammer Bro (alt).png|120px]][[File:Hammer-Bro-2D.svg|120px]]|align=left|size=240|Early and modern Hammer Bros.; the main difference is them originally lacking shoes.}}
|-
Hammer Bros. are yellow Koopas with green shells, cream-colored belly plates, and, since ''[[Mario Party]]'', green shoes (although they sometimes are barefoot), as well as green and white helmets (though the colors change depending on the variant). They look like Koopa Troopas, but have a taller stature, smaller blue eyes and a lighter-colored muzzle. Hammer Bros. are notably always armed with black or gray hammers tied to wooden handles with rope. In ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Hammer Bros. wear black shells and helmets, while their hammers are slightly less detailed. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Hammer Bros. are given a more realistic appearance than their ''Super Mario'' depiction, having a monotone appearance, as well as highly detailed hammers and helmets. In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', however, Hammer Bros. have a vibrant, cartoonish appearance with less detailed hammers and helmets; in the latter, their helmets and shoes have a lighter green color. In the [[DIC Entertainment]] ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' cartoons, Hammer Bros. have drastically altered appearances, due to appearing with much darker skin tones, smaller body proportions, gray goggles, and shinier hammers.

|align=center|'''NES''' ''Super Mario Bros.''<br>'''DS''' ''New Super Mario Bros.''
|''A character who throws a seemingly endless stream of hammers. Hammer Bros. have also been known to jump every so often. Since they throw their hammers in a high arc, if you manage to get in close, the hammers can't hit you. Unlike Koopas and Buzzy Beetles, Hammer Bros. don't reduce to their shells when jumped on. As the name suggests, most Hammer Bros. are found in pairs.
|}


In the first three ''Paper Mario'' games, Hammer Bros. are given an altered design, which has them wear blue helmets instead of their standard green ones and have more rotund body proportions resembling those of Koopa Troopas. In ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'', Hammer Bros. are given red shoes and spiked armbands, which reappear in ''Super Paper Mario''. From ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'' onward, however, Hammer Bros. use their current-era design instead, while appearing with a paper outline.

===Powers and abilities===
==Names in Other Languages==
Hammer Bros. possess superior agility, due to jumping as high as [[Mario]] (if not as high as [[Luigi]]) and quickly traversing small areas from hopping. Hammer Bros. hop very frequently, to the point where they hop while idling. In the way of weaponry, Hammer Bros. use black or gray construction hammers, though ''Super Mario RPG: Legend Of The Seven Stars'' and the ''Paper Mario'' games depict them with wooden mallets instead. In most games, Hammer Bros. throw their hammers at lower angles and farther distances, or higher angles at closer distances. The former games have Hammer Bros. smack their adversaries with their mallets as a melee attack; exclusively to the ''Paper Mario'' series, Hammer Bros. throw a barrage of smaller, weaker hammers, or a hammer with magical abilities like shrinking. Hammer Bros.' [[Skillshot|Skill Shot]] in ''Mario Strikers Charged'' has them attack the opposing team with a giant hammer, to daze them.

In most older ''Super Mario'' games, Hammer Bros. are completely silent due to technical limitations. Most of the ''Super Mario'' RPGs and spin-offs give Hammer Bros. in-game text so others can understand what they are saying; in ''Super Mario RPG'', Hammer Bros. appear to speak with Brooklyn accents, often saying "ya" instead of "you." In the DIC ''Super Mario'' cartoons, Hammer Bros. were given intelligible voice acting with [[Wikipedia:New York accent|Brooklyn]] accents. Hammer Bros. also speak intelligibly in various ''Super Mario'' comics, as well as ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. In contemporary ''Super Mario'' games, Hammer Bros. (and their variants) are portrayed by [[Motoki Takagi]], who provided them with grunts, yells, and even a few lines such as "Let's go." While they generally have a high-pitched voice, they have a deeper voice in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.
