The '''Mario universe''' refers to the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series']] collection of characters, stages, and properties that hail from Nintendo's expansive and highly successful ''Mario'' videogame franchise. The Mario universe is Nintendo's most lucrative franchise, and it is flat-out the most successful game franchise in global sales and in history. [[Mario]] himself is Nintendo's mascot and is considered the most well-known video game character in the world, and he and his many friends and nemeses have appeared in dozens-upon-dozens of Nintendo video games, many of them best-sellers and several of which are considered some of the greatest games ever released. Directly as a result from this, there are more Mario-themed characters, items, and properties to be found in the Smash Bros. series than any other Nintendo franchise, not the least of which are nine distinctive playable characters between [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|''Brawl'']] and [[Super Smash Bros. 4|the Wii U and 3DS games]]: [[Mario]] (who has [[Dr. Mario]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a clone), [[Luigi]], [[Bowser]], [[Princess Peach]] (who has [[Toad]] as an attack), Rosalina (who uses [[Luma]]s to attack), [[Yoshi]], [[Donkey Kong]], [[Diddy Kong]],[[Wario
]], and [[R.O.B.
]]. The Mario universe is so expansive, in fact, that the last
five
characters are considered stars of their own sub-universes: the [[Yoshi (universe)|Yoshi universe]], the [[Donkey Kong (universe)|Donkey Kong universe]], [[Wario (universe)|Wario
universe]] and the [[R.O.B. (universe)|R.O.B.
universe]].
