'''Bros. Attacks''' are special methods of attacking, which require Mario and Luigi to work together. These moves are used in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]''.

To perform Bros. Attacks, buttons must be pressed in the right order, at the right time. If a button is missed, the attack will do far less damage, possibly even less than a regular [[Jump]] or [[Hammer]] attack. Each Bros. Attack also has three Modes: 1, 2, and 3. Mode 1 is the most basic; the game goes into slow motion when buttons need to be pressed, to give the player ample time to press the correct buttons. In addition, button icons that show which button needs to be pressed are clearly displayed. In Mode 2, slow-motion is taken out, but the button icons remain. Mode 3 has no slow-motion, or button icons, but Bros. Attacks performed in Mode 3 are more powerful and cost less BP than those performed in the other Modes.

After executing a Bros. Attack successfully (i.e. pressing all of the buttons correctly) a certain number of times, [[Super Attack|Advanced Command]]s are learned. Advanced Bros. Attacks are generally harder to perform than regular ones, but Advanced attacks often have added bonuses such as stealing [[List of items|items]], inflicting [[POW-Down|sta]][[DEF-Down|tus]] [[Dizzy|ailm]][[Burn|ents]], or simply doing more damage to the boss or enemy.

In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Modes 1, 2, and 3 no longer exist for the Bros. Attacks, instead they are replaced by "Normal" or "Easy" difficulty, with the Easy difficulty being more lenient in timing but with the downside of costing more BP to perform. The slowed down pace of Mode 1 is also removed. Additionally, all battle backgrounds now scroll whenever Mario or Luigi use a Bros. Attack. The "Advanced" Bros. Attacks have been given their own separate category of "Super Bros. Attacks". Even if the Bros. fail to obtain an "Excellent!" rating for the original attacks, it still counts towards the number of times that the move is performed, meaning that there is no penalty for failing to perform the attack properly. Furthermore, the Bros. have a chance to practice their Bros. attacks if they lack knowledge on proper timing during "Practice" mode or watch a "Demo" of the attacks in order to learn how to perform them properly, both of which are accessed during combat. Some attacks, such as Swing Bros., have had their inputs changed.

Bros. Attacks return in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', and can be used in battles in the Real World. Mario & Luigi have five Bros. Attacks each, making a total of 10. They are unlocked by collecting 10 [[Attack Piece]]s in various places in the Real World for each attack, similar to how Special Attacks are unlocked in the preceding game. In the Dream World, [[Luiginary Attack]]s are used instead of Bros. Attacks, though they are acquired the same way as Bros. Attacks in the Real World; by collecting 10 Attack Pieces in a certain area. Two Bros. Attacks are also available for [[Dreamy Luigi]] in [[Giant Luigi|Giant Battles]].
