to make 'em unstable. After that, any attack should knock 'em down. If you use an explosion, you can make 'em fall down at once. If you flip 'em over, the battle will nearly be ours! Beat 'em one by one!

Red Ninjakoopa
The leader of the Koopa Bros., Red Ninjakoopa has authority over his siblings and seems to come up with their plans. When Mario reaches the roof of the Koopa Bros. Fortress, Red Ninjakoopa has the other three Koopa Bros. open fire on him with a barrage of Bullet Bills.
Black Ninjakoopa
Black Ninjakoopa is the possible second-in-command of the Koopa Bros. and the one seen apart from his brothers most often. When Mario reaches Koopa Bros. Fortress, it's Black Ninjakoopa who reports this to Red Ninjakoopa and his other brothers, who increase their bases's security accordingly. Additionally, when Mario first enters the chamber where he battles the Koopa Bros., its Black Ninjakoopa who appears to greet him, before leaving with Red Ninjakoopa to pilot the Bowser???
Notably, Black Ninjakoopa is miscolored blue in the official artwork. This was likely a mistake on the artist's part.
Green Ninjakoopa
Upon being alerted to Mario's arrival at the Koopa Bros. Fortress by Mario, Green Ninjakoopa took defence precautions and had a key sealed away and guarded. When Mario found Green Ninjakoopa while he was doing this, the Koopa Bro. taunted Mario and fled.
It is interesting to note that Green Ninjakoopa is one of the few battle-friendly Green Koopa Troopas in all of the Paper Mario series, save for the Green Koopa Troopas of Super Paper Mario (which even allowed completely normal green Koopa Troopas to be fought in its The Bitlands area). He is apparently the third-in-command of the Koopa Bros.
Yellow Ninjakoopa
When Mario gets deeper into the Koopa Bros. Fortress, Yellow Ninjakoopa sets a trap for him; when Mario hits a rigged ? Block, a trapdoor opens beneath him and sends him falling into the Koopa Bros.' dungeon; as Mario falls, Yellow Ninjakoopa taunts and jeers at him.
Ironically, Yellow Ninjakoopa's plan of trapping Mario in the dungeon backfired, as Mario met Bombette in the dungeon and also managed to break several other Bob-ombs out of it. He also appeares to be the last-in-command of the Koopa Bros.
Trivia
- The Koopa Bros. are obvious spoofs of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, being turtles, ninjas wearing similar colored costumes and having a similar group name.
- The song that plays when the Koopa Bros. are fought is a remix of the Hammer Brothers battle theme from Super Mario Bros. 3.
- The music that plays when the player first enters the Koopa Bros'. chamber is the music that plays in Donkey Kong when Donkey Kong climbs up the ladders in the intro.
- The song that plays when the Koopa Bros. fired Bullet Bills at Mario and company is a remix of the Koopalings' Airship theme from Super Mario Bros. 3.
- After defeating the Koopa Brothers, much later in the game, Mario will be asked a question by Chuck Quizmo about which Koopa Brother doesn't exist. The right answer was Blue Ninjakoopa, and the other two options were Black Ninjakoopa and Red Ninjakoopa.
- The Koopa Brothers are the only chapter bosses (aside from Bowser) that were seen again, prior to the ending parade. They are also the only bosses to send Mario a letter.
- It is implied that Kent C. Koopa taught them everything they know about fighting.
- A Koopa Brother can be seen watching the Chuck Quizmo show.
