Character infobox

Usage

Syntax
|image= A representative image of the character - ideally, artwork from the most recently released game. However, if the latest artwork is specialized for that game (i.e. the character's wearing sporting gear, driving a kart, etc.), an older image may be retained as the infobox image instead. Note that the infobox cannot be updated while a game is still upcoming: it can only be changed after the game is released.
|full name= The character's full name (for example, "King Bowser Koopa" is Bowser's full name).
|first appearance= The first game, book, cartoon episode, comic issue, movie, etc. that the character appeared in.
|species= The character's species. Do not list species the character has briefly turned into or any one-off alternate interpretations (i.e. the Super Mario Bros. film).
|affiliation= Important characters, groups or places associated with the character in question. Keep this list as concise as possible.
|latest appearance= The latest game (etc.) that the character has appeared in. This does not include upcoming games: the game must have been released before the infobox can be updated. Ongoing serialized comics (i.e. Super Mario-Kun) are not included here.
|latest portrayal= Who voiced (or otherwise portrayed) the character in the most recently released game (etc.).
|portrayed by= If only one person has portrayed the character, use this instead of "latest portrayal".
