===''Mario Party'' series===

Fly Guys have been noted for some important roles in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]].

====''Mario Party''====

In ''[[Mario Party]]'', Fly Guy makes an appearance on the board [[Wario's Battle Canyon]]. When a player passes by, it asks the player if they want it to take them to [[Bowser]], bring another player to the space before him or do nothing. Both choices cost 10 [[coin]]s. Also, a Fly Guy appears briefly in [[Knock Block Tower]] where he grabs the chest and flees if the player doesn't get it in time. In the [[Mini-Game House]], there is a [[Mecha Fly Guy]] that is sold in the [[Mushroom Shop]] for 100 [[coin]]s.

===''Mario Tennis'' series===

Fly Guy's only major appearance in the ''Mario Tennis'' series, as well as its first playable appearance in general, is ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]''. Fly Guy is an unlockable playable character of the Tricky type, and the player can unlock it by winning the [[Mushroom Cup]], the [[Flower Cup]], and the [[Star Cup]] in singles. Fly Guy's [[Power Shot (Mario Tennis series)|Offensive Power Shot]] is the [[Tornado Twist]], which envelopes the returning player in a whirlwind while messing up controls, and its [[Power Shot (Mario Tennis series)|Defensive Power Shot]] is the [[Tornado Return]], which it uses a whirlwind to return the ball from anywhere. Fly Guy's trophy animation begins with it beginning to receive its trophy from Wario and Waluigi, while Peach watches, unaware of their new prank. Then Waluigi surprises it by holding up a pair of pliers and trapping them with it. But Fly Guy shakes them off by spinning and knocking over Wario and Waluigi. It then catches its trophy as Peach cheers.

===''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''===

Fly Guy is an unlockable character in ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]''. He is unlocked if the player gets at least a bronze trophy in the [[Star Tourney]] on hard difficulty. Fly Guy is also classified as a tricky character, the others being [[Boo]], [[Koopa Paratroopa|Paratroopa]], [[Black Mage]], and [[Moogle]]. His special shot is the [[Thunder Shot]], which can be used if the player taps an "S" shape on the touch screen. In addition, Yellow and Green Fly Guys are also playable, with their designs now matching the modern designs of Green and Yellow Shy Guys, while Cyan Fly Guys make their debut.

===''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games''===

In the [[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Wii version]] of ''Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games'', Fly Guys appear in [[Dream Long Jump (Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games)|Dream Long Jump]]. If player is hit by one, they are deflected. Fly Guys can be defeated when jumped on.

===''Mario Kart'' series===

Fly Guys do not physically appear in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' or ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', but two of them can be seen on the Mario-themed airplane in [[Sunshine Airport]].

===''Paper Mario: The Origami King''===

Fly Guys make their ''Paper Mario'' series debut in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]''. They, like many of the Koopa Troop, are transformed into [[Folded Soldiers]] by [[King Olly]]. Their design in the series now matches their appearance in various modern ''Super Mario'' games, while their propeller is white like in their earlier appearances. They surround the [[Sea Tower]], and can be defeated without going into battle by ramming into them with the boat after it gets an engine upgrade, although defeating them this way will not register them for the [[Musée Champignon]] gallery.

===Unused appearances===

Fly Guys have unused graphics in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. They had propellers on their backs, instead of their heads, which along with their pose causes them to resemble the ones from ''Yoshi's Story''. Additionally, similar enemies called [[Sky Guy]]s appear in ''[[Paper Mario]]''.
