[[File:Mario stats.png|thumb|upright=1.66|An example of Mario's balanced characteristics]]

Mario has consistently and frequently appeared in every game as a balanced player designed to be mastered easily. The only notable exceptions are the ''Mario Golf'' games, where he has a high drive, higher than most of the cast, including known-power characters such as Wario and Donkey Kong (in ''Mario Golf: World Tour'', for instance, his drive is surpassed only by Bowser, Rosalina, and Donkey Kong). Additionally, in ''[[Mario Strikers: Battle League]]'', Mario is classified as a technique character (albeit his bio mentions his balanced stats); Shy Guy, later added in an update, is later classified as an all-around character. Otherwise, since Mario is designed as a versatile character, his stats reflect the "jack of all trades" quality. In games where Mario's stats are not equally balanced, he generally leans slightly toward power and agility. While Mario is fairly nimble in games such as ''Super Smash Bros.'', ''Mario Super Sluggers'', the ''Mario & Luigi'' series, and the ''Mario & Sonic'' series, he is sometimes portrayed with average or even below-average mobility in other games, including ''Mario Superstar Baseball'', ''Mario Tennis'' games, and ''Mario Strikers Charged''.
