Snoutlet is a major character from Mario & Luigi: Brothership. He is a flying piggy bank-like creature who acts as Mario and Luigi's advisor throughout their adventure in Concordia where he resides. He somewhat replaces Starlow from the previous three Mario & Luigi titles as the brothers' primary companion and takes a similar role and personality to Stuffwell and the former. His name is a portmanteau of "snout", referring to a pig's nose, and "outlet", which refers to an electrical output socket.
