While the Koopa Bros. are all egotistical and obsessed with being cool, they have a great deal of respect for both Bowser and each other. They were entrusted by the Koopa King to guard [[Eldstar]], and Mario defeated them first in ''Paper Mario''. The theme that played during the fight with the Koopa Bros. is a remix of the [[Hammer Bro]]s. theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. | |||

It is mentioned by several characters throughout ''[[Paper Mario]]'' that the Koopa Bros. were originally inhabitants of [[Koopa Village]], apparently living in it around the same time as [[Kent C.

According to the Bob-ombs that were jailed in the fortress, the Koopa Bros. became conceited and corrupted due to the influence of Bowser and [[Kammy Koopa]], who had taken a liking to them. The resident Bob-ombs were enslaved and worked non-stop. Those that rebelled were jailed, and the indigo Bob-ombs that Mario ends up fighting within the fortress were all supplied by Bowser to take their place.

The Koopa Bros. first appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]'' in [[Peach's Castle]] after the [[Goomboss|Goomba King's]] defeat, where they reassure both Kammy Koopa and Bowser that they can stop Mario, and also show them a special technique, which impresses Bowser. Soon after revealing their attack, the Koopa Bros. are sent from Princess Peach's Castle back to their fortress after informing Bowser that they did not actually post someone to guard the captured Eldstar, a show of incompetence and lack of thought which infuriates Bowser. | |||

When Black Ninjakoopa finds that Mario and his allies have reached Koopa Bros. Fortress, he alerts his brothers and they proceed to set about making various traps and obstacles in their home, all of which Mario passes. Yellow Ninjakoopa in particular lays a trap involving a [[? Block]] which activates a trap door below it when struck, which places Mario in the same jail that the rebel Bob-ombs reside. In a last-ditch effort to stop Mario, Red Ninjakoopa has his brothers set up three [[Bill Blaster]]s on top of the fortress, which Mario also manages to overcome. Reaching the Koopa Bros. at last, Mario, before he can fight the Bros. themselves, has to battle their creation, a poorly constructed [[Bowser???|facsimile of Bowser]]. When their fake Bowser is destroyed, the Koopa Bros. attack Mario using a whirling tower attack. The Koopa Bros. battle optimizes the abilities of Bombette and Kooper; Bombette's [[Bomb (Paper Mario series)|Bomb]] attack can knock over the Koopa Bros. stack instantly, while Kooper's [[Power Shell]] can hit all of them at once. | When Black Ninjakoopa finds that Mario and his allies have reached Koopa Bros.

The Koopa Bros.' true appearance in the manga is volume 25, where, like their game counterparts, are first encountered by Mario, Goombario and Kooper disguised as Toads. | ||
