Brighton is a character in Mario Party 6. He is a sun, hence why his name is a pun on "bright," and his moon counterpart is Twila.
History[edit]
Mario Party 6[edit]
Brighton and Twila are introduced in the opening of Mario Party 6. They travel the world, said to always host parties on behalf of Mario and friends.[1] He begins an argument with Twila ever since he asks her who is more impressive. Every three turns, Brighton controls the board, changing it to day. The quiz game Speak Up, Mic Mode, and Solo Mode are all hosted by him. After Mario and the other protagonists unlock every page of the Miracle Book, using the Stars they have put into the Star Bank, Brighton and Twila recognize the heroes' effort, promising to get along, and launch all of the Stars into the night sky.[2]
The German localization swaps the genders of Brighton and Twila to female and male, respectively, since the language uses masculine pronouns for the moon. Brighton and Twila both have voice clips in the Japanese release.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]
Brighton is a sticker in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, like Twila.
