| '''Metal Mario''' is an independent character in the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' universe, usually being one of the fiercer end-game opponents in the ''Mario'' sport games or ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. He is a spin-off from [[Metal Mario (form)|Metal Mario]], which is a form of [[Mario]], rather than a distinct character. Metal Mario often plays the role of Mario's rival.

| |
| In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', Metal Mario makes his debut as a mid-boss encountered before the game's final boss, Master Hand. Like the [[Fighting Polygons]], he has his [[Meta Crystal|own stage]]. He is far less powerful, and is susceptible to much more damage than in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Nevertheless, he is a much more durable character than the regular Mario. Heavier and more resistant to knockback in general than any other character in the game, he's very difficult to beat. In fact, only when Metal Mario's damage exceeds 180% can he be knocked down.
| |
| | |
| On a side note, [[Kirby]] is unable to copy Metal Mario's powers, which is later possible to do in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.

| |
| Metal Mario returns as a mid-boss in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and as one of the game's many [[Trophy|trophies]]. He is fought on [[Battlefield]].
| |
| | |
| In this game, Metal Mario fights alone by default, but if the player unlocks [[Luigi]], [[Metal Luigi]] joins the fray as well. Additionally, players can pick up the [[Metal Box]] item, turning into metal forms, boasting the same attributes as Metal Mario and Metal Luigi.
| |
| | |
| KOing Metal Mario and Metal Luigi in Adventure Mode awards the player the "Metal Bros. KO" bonus, worth 8000 points.
| |
| | |
| Yoshi's Island, a stage in the game, is reflected on the surface of Metal Mario's trophy.
| |
| | |
| ====''Super Smash Bros Brawl''====
| |
| Metal Mario reappears in ''[[Super Smash Bros Brawl]]'' as a possible opponent in Classic Mode on stages 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10. It is not guaranteed that the player will fight Metal Mario, as they may fight a metal version of another playable character. Metal Mario can also be played as in Metal Brawl.

| ===''Mario Golf''===
| |
| [[File:MetalMarioMarioGolf.png|thumb|left|200px|Metal Mario in ''Mario Golf''.]] | |
| Metal Mario is an unlockable playable character in ''[[Mario Golf (Nintendo 64)|Mario Golf]]'' for the [[Nintendo 64]]. He boasts the strongest drives from his set of clubs and is usually the last character to be unlocked. However, he is available only in the North American and European releases; he is missing from the original Japanese version.

| ===''Dr. Mario 64''===
| |
| [[File:DrMario64FinalCast.png|thumb|left|Metal Mario in the character select screen from ''Dr. Mario 64''.]]
| |
| Metal Mario returns as the final boss of [[Wario]]'s storyline in ''[[Dr. Mario 64]]''. In this game, Metal Mario can be unlocked as a playable character by beating the entire Story Mode with Wario without losing once. [[Dr. Mario]] turns into Metal Mario when he accidentally eats some [[Megavitamin]]s. In the game, he looks like a metal version of Dr. Mario.

| |
| ====''Mario Kart 7''====
| |
| [[File:MK7MetalMario.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Metal Mario in ''Mario Kart 7''.]]
| |
| Metal Mario makes a reappearance as an unlockable playable character in the [[Nintendo 3DS]] title ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and is unlocked by winning the 150cc Special Cup. He is a Heavy class character, with an advantage bonus of weight and some speed. He is one of four drivers to enter the ''Mario Kart'' series for the first time (the other three being [[Lakitu (Mario Kart 7)|Lakitu]], [[Wiggler]], and [[Queen Bee|Honey Queen]]). His signature symbol/logo is a shiny, metal version of Mario's ''M'' logo. [[Bowser]] and [[Rosalina]] always appear as rivals when he is picked.
| |
| | |
| On a side note, Metal Mario's [[kart]]s have the same body frame as that of the Medium and Light class characters, which makes him a smaller target than the other Heavy and Cruiser characters.

| |
| Metal Mario has been confirmed to be a returning racer in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]''. It is currently known that he will be an unlockable character. Additionally, there is another character related to Metal Mario named [[Pink Gold Peach]]. Metal Mario is classified as a heavyweight, but within the heavyweight category, he is one of the heaviest racers, tied with Bowser, Wario, and Morton. However, Metal Mario has less speed to boost handling.
| |
| | |
| Also, much like in ''Mario Kart 7'', Metal Mario's vehicles use the same body frame size as the middleweights, making him a slightly harder target to hit.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Tennis Open''===
| |
| [[File:MTOMetalM.png|thumb|200px|left|'''Metal Mario''', in ''Mario Tennis Open''.]]
| |
| Metal Mario returns in ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]'' as a QR Downloadable Character. His type in this game is Power, and, as in ''Mario Kart 7'', his voice is a warbled variation of Mario's voice. He is the final QR Downloadable Character. He is also the only QR Downloadable character that is not a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]. He is the strongest character in the game with the fastest serves. He returns Chance Shots with little effect on him (if he returns them correctly), and his Chance Shots themselves have a longer-lasting effect on his opponents. He is one of the slowest characters in the game, however, and unlike Bowser, another slow character, he has below-average reach and a poor lunge. This makes it difficult for him to predict and return shots. Metal Mario's racket costs 1750 coins to buy at the Clubhouse for Miis to be able to use.

| |''Mario was in for a surprise the first time he hit a Metal Box in Super Mario 64. The metal cap that popped out transformed Mario into living metal, giving him great stamina, a heavy tread, and the ability to walk underwater. In Super Smash Bros., Metal Mario showed up as an incredibly stubborn midlevel boss.''
