Fighting games pit characters against each other in combat. The objective of most fighting games is to knock out the other characters. Fighting games are a sub-genre of sports games. This genre has exclusively been a part of the crossover ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' | Fighting games pit characters against each other in combat.

Mario's first appearance in a fighting game was as a referee in ''[[wikipedia:Punch-Out!!|Punch-Out!! (arcade game)]]'' (the [[wikipedia:Punch-Out!! (Wii)|latest installation]] in that series features [[Donkey Kong]] as an opponent). Mario's first playable role in a fighting game was in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', along with [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], and Donkey Kong. Fighting games in the ''Mario'' series have significant differences from arcade fighting games. [[Bowser]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Dr. Mario]] later appeared in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', and [[Wario]] and [[Diddy Kong]] appeared alongside all of them (except Dr. Mario) in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and [[Rosalina]] and [[Bowser Jr.]] made an appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. Instead of depleting the enemy's health, the player must knock the enemy off the screen. Items and obstacles are also available whereas most fighting games do not have them. | Mario's first appearance in a fighting game was as a referee in ''[[wikipedia:Punch-Out!!|Punch-Out!!
