Top 10 Unneeded Mario Characters

The Top Ten
1 Pink Gold Peach Pink Gold Peach is a character who debuts in Mario Kart 8, where she appears as an unlockable playable character.

What is Pink Gold Peach? I will tell you. She's a clone,an obscure piece of crap. And unneeded

This along with all of the baby characters are pointless.

She is just a clone. The pink Gold flower does not exist.

As a character she is completely unnecessary

2 Baby Rosalina Baby Rosalina is an infant version of the major character from the Mario Bros . Franchise, Rosalina . She first appeared in Mario Kart 8 as a playable character and is now one of 5 baby characters in the roster, alongside infant versions of Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Princess Daisy .

When Rosalina was a baby she had red hair not blonde. This ruins her storybook.

Baby Rosalina is the best

She was a predictable choiche for Mario Kart 8 but she goes aganist Rosalina's backstory!

3 Waluigi Waluigi is a lanky self-centered, brusque young lad as he is considered evil and the main rival of Luigi. Waluigi is shown causing local havoc in most games he appears in alongside his partner Wario. Waluigi is not instinctively evil or the antagonist (not counting DDR), as a matter of fact, he shows great compassion for his fellow peers, typically for characters Daisy and Wario. Waluigi is also described as lonely, rejected, sad, or depressed due to his relationship with the Super Smash Bros. franchise, and people outside of Nintendo continually rejecting him. In recent years, people have come to Waluigi's defense, giving him support and even starting a cult following. In sum, Waluigi is the ...read more.

THIS is an example on how a characters can be lazy, he was born only because they needed a tennis partner for Wario, has a poor personality, random abilites, no background and has helped the main plot one time, in Super Mario Maker, where he was just a filler AGAIN. Even his amiibo is lazy! And the worst part is that his fans still think he's needed.

He was created only to be a tennis partner for Wario. That's fine but why was he not in any major game? His only point is being Nintendo's first go to filler character for Mario spinoffs. How do his fans still think he's needed? Waluigi fans are so stupid

Well of course we had to see him on here unfortunately...

He's not unneeded...

4 Baby Daisy

I can see a baby version of Daisy but why she didn't appeared in Yoshi games at least?

Slightly better than BR but bad

5 Metal Mario Metal Mario is a character that appears in both the Mario series and the Super Smash Bros, where he made his first appearance in the Nintendo 64 version. He's pretty similar to Mario when using a Metal Cap, but instead of being a transformation, Metal Mario is his own character.

This male gave birth to five clones that ruined Mario Kart 8's roster

Pink Gold Peach and this looks like trophies not Characters

6 Koopa Kid

I added him because he has absolutely no reason to exist. He's annoying, useless, and looks like Baby Bowser and Bowser Jr. Then he copies the Koopalings since there is more than one Koopa Kid. Little annoying piece of crap.

Koopa Kid doesn't even appear in Mario games anymore! Bowser Jr replaced him! But still Bowser Jr is better.

While he did come before Bowser Jr he has no reason to exist unlike Jr. He only appeared in Mario Party. Bowser Jr was in Sunshine and both Galaxy games.

He exist only because Mario Party, what's the sense on add him? Who is him?

7 Cat Peach

Slightly better than Tanooki guy

How is she here, and Cat Mario's not?

8 Grand Goomba

Out all the enemies, he's the most generic, we didn't really need him.

I like how in the New Super Mario Bros. series where you jump on it and it splits into two normal Goombas.

I don't know who this is

They make me hungry

9 Tanooki Mario

A LOT less needed than Waluigi

No! Still looks great

10 Rosalina Rosalina, known as Rosetta in Japan, is a major character in the Mario Franchise created by Nintendo. She first appeared in the 2007 Mario Game, Super Mario Galaxy for the Nintendo Wii and later returned for the game's sequel in 2010. Since then, she has been featured in many main-series Mario Games and many spinoffs. She has appeared as a playable character in Super Mario 3D World for the Nintendo Wii U in 2013 and is a playable character in the Mario Kart series and Mario Party series. She also has come into Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS as a part of the large character roster.

SHE IS NOT UNNEEDED! Without her, Galaxy wouldn't be a thing!

Immensely hated clone from a bad game, enough said.

A stupid filler slot from the worst Mario game

You Rosalina haters are geniuses.

The Contenders
11 Fly Guy

Still look amazing

12 Dry Bowser Dry Bowser is the fossilized version of the main antagonist of the Mario Bros. Franchise, Bowser. He first appeared in New Super Mario Bros. on the Nintendo DS after Bowser had been dumped into the lava and was left with his skeleton. Since then, Dry Bowser has appeared as a villain in games like Super Mario 3D Land, New Super Mario Bros games, and similar titles. He also appears in some Mario Spinoff series, including Mario Kart.

I'm not saying he's useless as a skeletal form of Bowser, but he's useless as a separate character.

Clone characters end of story

13 Cosmic Mario
14 Princess Peach Princess Peach is a major character in the Mario Bros. Franchise. She is the lead female of the The Mario franchise. She is usually the character who needs saved in most Mario Games, but also has appeared as a playable character in the Main-Series Mario Games, including Super Mario 3D World, Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario Run, and even starred in her own game, Super Princess Peach for the Nintendo DS. She has appeared in many spinoff series, too, including Mario and Sonic Olympic Games, the Mario Kart series, the Mario Party series, Mario Sports Games, the Super Smash Bros. Series, and many more.

I don't usually stick up for peach, because I don't like her, (she's annoying) but, without her there wouldn't be a mario series.

One of the most important characters

How is she on this list

Factually important

15 Princess Daisy Princess Daisy is a fictional character in the Mario series of video games, in which she is the princess of the fictional region of Sarasaland.

Daisy debuted in Super Mario Land in 1989, after few other appearances she disappeared for nine years until she was brought back in Mario Tennis (2000).

Daisy is known for being a tomboy especially compared to Princess Peach and Rosalina and... read more

No... she was the only possible choiche for Super Mario Land, Peach was not good for a role in this game at all, they needed to create a new princess, Daisy! And what we got from Daisy? Super Mario Land (because the game will not fill without her), Super Mario Land 2 (no the first one, not the sequel), Wario, Wario Land games, Waluigi and Warioware games, Daisy has created an entire sub universe of characters and games.
This why bought back Daisy in Mario Tennis 64 was a good idea, and we got in spin-offs more develop, a baby versiob and background with Luigi.

Honestly this character is uneeded. Just a tomboyish version of Peach who could've easly been replaced by Peach in Super Mario Land

Daisy = filler therefore unnecessary

16 Baby Peach Baby Peach is the infant version of the major character from the Mario Series, Princess Peach. She is mostly known for her appearances in the Mario Kart Franchise in Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart 8 as a playable character, but she also appears in other Mario games, including Yoshi's Island DS, in which she is not a playable character.

Really really unneeded. The only needed peach character is Peach herself. No one even likes peach, including myself, so why did nintendo have to make 3 annoying clones of her? UUUGGHHH!

This is Peach though so false. Also she served a purpose

17 Baby Luigi Baby Luigi is the infant version of the major character in the Super Mario franchise, Luigi. He is known for his appearances as a playable character in various Mario games.
18 Mario Mario, originally named Jumpman, is the main character of the Super Mario Bros. franchise, created by the creative director and video game designer at Nintendo of Japan, Shigeru Miyamoto. Mario has appeared in almost every Mario game, including games in spin-off series as a playable character, with few exceptions including New Super Luigi U, Luigi's Mansion games, Yoshi's Island games, and similar counterparts. He is the most iconic character in video game history and is Nintendo's unofficial mascot. His franchise has grown to be the most successful video game franchise of all time.

If you say he is uneeded then you obviously don't know anything about him

Why is he on here?

19 MC Ballyhoo

He's irrelevant

20 Fawful Fawful, known in Japan as Gerakobits, is a fictional character appearing in the Mario & Luigi series of role-playing video games developed by AlphaDream.

Honestly this guy isn't any impressive really. Everyone goes crazy over him because of his creative lines but he could've been replaced by any other villian in Bowser's Inside Story and it wouldn't change anything. Just another regular bad guy

21 Toadette Toadette is a character in the Mario series. She is a female Toad who first appeared in the Nintendo GameCube video game Mario Kart: Double Dash.

She and yoshi are needed

Serves no purpose

22 The King of Subcon

He's an implied character because he was mentioned but he didn't phisically appeared, isn't he? We have a lot of implied characters: Bowser wife, Daisy's father, Wario's mother, Princess Eclair etc. They are here for add more background to characters or games.

23 Yoshi Yoshi, once romanized as Yossy, is a fictional anthropomorphic dinosaur who appears in video games published by Nintendo. Often appearing as a sidekick and helper to Mario, Yoshi is most known for his appearances in the Yoshi's Island and the Super Mario franchises.

Not unneeded

24 Wendy O. Koopa Wendy O. Koopa is a female villain in the Super Mario Bros. franchise. She is the only female member of the Koopalings and is usually found assisting Bowser on his wicked plans with the rest of the Koopalings. She first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3 in 1988 and since then has been a reappearing foe in the Super Mario Bros. and New Super Mario Bros. series. She has also appeared as a villain in the Paper Mario series and similar games. She is a playable character in the Mario Kart franchise and other spin-off series and can be played as an alternate skin to Bowser Jr. in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS and its sequel Ultimate for Switch.
