The Koopa Bros., also called the Ninjakoopas, are four Koopa Troopas who wear ninja gear and fight Mario, Goombario, Kooper and Bombette for Eldstar, the first Star Spirit in Paper Mario. They resemble the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Their names, according to the colors of their shells and ninja gear, are Red, Yellow, Black and Green. They live in a fortress which was once the home for the Bob-ombs. They first fight Mario and company using the mediocre version of Mecha Bowser.
Rank
Officially, Red is the leader of the Koopa Bros. and the rank of the other three Koopa Bros. is not known. However, it can be presumed that the their rank is based on their position in their tower formation, the top having the highest rank. If so, then Red is the leader, Black is second in command, followed by Yellow with Green the lowest.
Stats and Tattle Information
Max HP: 5 of each, Attack Power: 1, Defense Power: 1
Tattle:
- Spinning Tower: The Koopa Bros. have formed a tall Koopa tower! I'm not sure about this... They do a spinning attack with the whole gang piled high atop one another. Hit 'em with a Hammer or something to make 'em unstable. After that, any attack should knock 'em down. If you use an explosion, you can make 'em fall down at once. If you flip 'em over, the battle will nearly be ours! Beat 'em one by one!
- Red: He's the Koopa Bros. leader.
- Black: Black is pretty fashionable...
- Yellow: Yellow reminds me of curry. Isn't that a weird thing to think of in the middle of a battle?
- Green: He looks exactly the same as a normal Koopa Troopa.
- Any Koopa Brother: He has a little bit of defense power, but you can turn him over by jumping on him, just like a normal Koopa Troopa. Let's flip him over quick! Otherwise, the Bros. may form a tower and do their famous spinning attack!
Origin
The Koopa Bros' first appearance was surprisingly not in a video game, but rather in Volume 1, Chapter 13 of the Super Mario Kun manga. This was back in 1991, years before the Nintendo 64 even existed. As Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi travel in a world full of moving platforms, they stumble upon a pipe. The pipe turns out to be the Koopa Bros in disguise, and they attacked the three heroes immediately. The Koopas throw shells shaped like shurikens, and then turn into Princess Peach imposters. Mario almost falls for this trick, but notices a shell on the fake Peach's back, and quickly disposes the Koopa Bros. The Koopa Bros do not return until Super Mario Kun adapts Paper Mario.
