In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', if both Mario and Luigi reach zero [[Heart Point|HP]] in battle, a rounded-curved red "Game Over" text appears and the last Mario Bro. to fall says, ''"Mama mia!"'' Since defeating [[Queen Bean]], the player has an option to continue the game from the last save point or from [[Beanbean Castle]]; the Continue screen depicts a desk with a sign reading "GAME OVER," and the latter choice does not revert playtime to when the game is last saved. Another Game Over can occur if the player runs out of time escaping Bowser's Castle after defeating [[Cackletta]] for good: The screen shakes, followed by a scene of the castle in the sky exploding and the screen turning completely red. The game then immediately takes the player back to the last save point.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the Game Over text is completely blue, resembling the one from ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''. ''"Mama mia!"'' can be heard just like in the original (though both Mario Bros. say it instead of the last brother to fall in battle), and the screen's iris-out effect focuses on the two brothers. An arrangement of the ''Super Mario Bros.'' death jingle also plays. The player is given a chance to either try again or use Easy Mode, like in ''Dream Team'' and ''Paper Jam''. Another Game Over can occur if the player runs out of time escaping Bowser's Castle after defeating Cackletta for good: The screen shakes, followed by a scene of the castle in the sky exploding and the screen turning black. The game then immediately takes the player back to the title screen. In ''Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser'', if the player's captain is defeated, a red "DEFEATED" text appears instead. Hints also appear, instructing the player on how to lead their squad to victory.

*In ''[[Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix]]'', whenever the player fails a song in Story Mode, a "Failed" message appears in brown, then the result screen appears and the announcer says, ''"Wha-wha-what?"'' with an '''F''' grade (in the case of the Japanese version, the announcer says, ''"Aw, you couldn't make it!"'' with a '''D''' grade). After the player presses {{button|gcn|A}}, the Game Over sign appears in red with [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] dizzy. After that, the player is brought to the [[Continue]] screen if they have lives remaining; otherwise, they must start the mode over. If they choose to continue, they use one of their lives to retry the song. If the player passes the song but fails a Story Mode objective (such as losing a dance-off), the "Failed" message still displays, though the announcer says, ''"Sorry, almost..."'' instead. In Free Mode, the same thing happens when the player fails a song, except that there is no Game Over screen. Failing to defeat [[Bowser]] in Bowser's Castle when playing in Free Mode with Mush Mode enabled still gives the "Failed" message, but the announcer uses the quote associated with the grade earned instead of saying, ''"Sorry, almost..."'' Also, the player can hold {{button|gcn|Start}} during a stage to quit a song, which also gives the "Failed" message but with stats of zero for all of Perfect, Great, Early/Late, Miss, Max Combo, and Score.

*''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' shares the same Game Over look with ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', but the Game Over screen is situated on a black dot-like background.

*In ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]'', a Game Over occurs when the player's team's health bar is depleted on their last life during a course, or when the player chooses not to continue if they have more than one life. If the player does not have any extra lives, they are automatically given four lives when sent back to the world map. The "GAME OVER" text appears in yellow and falls down to the center of the top screen, while a jazzy arrangement of the Game Over theme from ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'' plays.

*In ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]'', a lost battle is considered a Game Over. Mario and the gang pose with despondent looks in front of the camera whenever they lose a battle. In ''Donkey Kong Adventure'', if the player loses a battle, Donkey Kong gets angry and punches [[Rabbid Cranky]] out of the screen, dropping his cane in the progress, followed by him and [[Rabbid Peach]] laughing. The theme that plays is a rearrangement of the death jingle from ''Donkey Kong Country''.

*''[[NES Remix]]'' and ''[[NES Remix 2]]'' give a Game Over when the player loses all their lives on a stage, or runs out of time on a stage with infinite lives. A clear time is not given, and the player gets only one star when clearing the stage if they continue after getting a Game Over.
