InMario Bros., Fighter Flies are one of the myriad of pests that emerge from pipes to attack Mario and Luigi. They first appear in Phase 6 (Phase 7 in Japan). After a Fighter Fly emerges, it hops across thefloors. As such, Mario has to precisely time hisjump when the Fighter Fly is on the ground to flip the creature over. If airborne, a Fighter Fly cannot be flipped over - not even if Mario uses thePOW Block. Once flipped over, Mario has to run into the insect to clear it off the stage.

In early iterations of the game, their design features large toothy scowls and shiny eyes, but their design was redone for the multiplayer mode of theSuper Mario All-Stars version ofSuper Mario Bros. 3. Their design in this title has large white eyes with black pupils, while their scowls are replaced with small closed mouths, their heads are a light orange color, and they have noses. This design is further developed in the iteration of the game included on manyGame Boy Advance games, which also gives them three colors and speeds depending on how many times they have been flipped over, like the other target enemies have.

In other iterations ofMario Bros.[edit]

Fighter Flies appear inLuigi Bros., an additional game featured inSuper Mario 3D World. Like the other enemies inLuigi Bros., Fighter Flies behave in the same way as inMario Bros., which this game is based on.

Fighter Flies are present inNES Remix as enemies and level objectives in some of the challenges and remixes based onMario Bros..

Mario Bros. Special[edit]

InMario Bros. Special, a 1984 semi-sequel byHudson Soft, Fighterflies can only be stunned if it is only a trampoline or conveyor belt that is being bounced on by Mario or Luigi. They first appear in Phase 9.

Punch Ball Mario Bros.[edit]

InPunch Ball Mario Bros., the other sequel by Hudson Soft, Fighterflies can be flipped over by hitting the POW Block while it is on the ground or having aPunch Ball thrown at them. If they recover or become the last target enemy on stage, they will turn green and move faster. They first appear in Phase 6.

Super Mario series[edit]

Super Mario Bros. Special[edit]

Fighterflies appear inSuper Mario Bros. Special, under the nameNakaji, potentially in reference to one of the game developers, Tomohiko Nakajima. Nakaji first appear inWorld 5-1, and later appear in5-2,8-1,8-2, and8-3. They move similarly to how they move in the originalMario Bros. arcade game, sporadically leaping towards Mario. They cannot bestomped on, but are vulnerable to all other methods of damage, such as aFire Flower, striking abrick they are standing on, or by hitting them with aHammer.

Super Mario 3D World /Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury[edit]

Fighter Flies appear inLuigi Bros., a remake ofMario Bros. featured inSuper Mario 3D World andits Nintendo Switch port. Fighter Flies use a green color palette.

Super Mario Maker[edit]

AMystery Mushroom costume, designed after Fighter Fly, can be unlocked inSuper Mario Maker (after theversion 1.20 update) by completing the hard version ofGnat Attack. When performing a jump as Fighter Fly, the player can hear the high-pitched noise this enemy made in the originalMario Bros. If the player presses+Control Pad up while playing as Fighter Fly, it will turn into aFreezie, which is a foe that also debuted inMario Bros.

Super Mario-kun[edit]

A Fighter Fly appears in chapter 9 ofvolume 9, which takes place in aMario Bros. styled arena where Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi are trapped. It does not play any important role.

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga /Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions[edit]

A Fighter Fly fight in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
A Fighter Fly fight inMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

InMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, they make a reappearance inStardust Fields, the border between theMushroom Kingdom and theBeanbean Kingdom. To attack, a Fighter Fly hops towards Mario or Luigi and tries to bump into the plumber. The heroes canjump to avoid the attack.

The Fighter Flies are orange with blue hands and feet, pink antennae, small wings, and have large green squinting eyelids.InMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, their feet are pink instead of light blue.

Mario and Luigi also encounter a stronger version of the Fighter Fly, theSuper Fly, in the basement ofBeanbean Castle.

In the remake'sMinion Quest mode, a Fighter Fly makes a cameo as the first audition forPopple's new "Rookie," a position whichBirdo ends up receiving.

Mario Power Tennis[edit]

Fighter Flies appear as obstacles on theMario Classic Court inMario Power Tennis, in a flat 8-bit model form. Like other enemies, they will walk around on the court, obstructing a player's movements. An unused 3D model for a Fighter Fly can be found in the game's files, heavily based off their design from theMario Bros. remake inSuper Mario All-Stars.

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U[edit]

Atrophy of Fighter Flies appears inSuper Smash Bros. for Wii U. Unlike the otherMario Bros. trophies, this trophy uses sprites fromMario Bros. Returns andthe second European NES version instead of the arcade version.

Other appearances[edit]

Fighterflies are programmable sprites in the Playbox BASIC andFamily BASIC accessories for theFamily Computer. They make a cameo in the Playbox BASIC's Biorhythm Board. They appear as enemies in shootermini-games in the Data Recorder's cassette and Family BASIC V3.

Fighter Flies are present inNES Remix as enemies and level objectives in some of the challenges and remixes based onMario Bros.

An enemy from the original Mario Bros. Just as the name implies, they are flies that gracefully move across the stage. They jump to move around, so hit them from below when they land. Unlike other enemies, these pests get faster after recovering from being flipped, rather than when only one is left. Be careful!(American English)
These pests come from the original Mario Bros. The name might make them sound tough, but these guys are actually kind of elegant and graceful. It's best to wait until they're on solid ground, then bop 'em from underneath to flip them over. If they get back up, though, watch out – they'll start gracefully leaping around a bit faster.(British English)
