They are deadly long-distance attackers, hurling an endless stream of hammers non-stop at their enemies. However, they are also vulnerable to attacks from close range. Hammer Bros. also rarely attack solo and are usually backed up by a nearby "bro". It is certain if any of them are actually biologically related, or if it is just a title.

| Hammer Brother | |
| Type | Koopa |
| Debut | Super Mario Bros. |
Hammer Brothers are a type of koopa that specialize in throwing hammers and have appeared in many Super Mario games as recurring enemies since Super Mario Bros..
Information[edit]
The Hammer Bros. are lean and tough-looking Koopas wearing black shells and helmets. As their name suggests, their primary weapon is the hammer. They are deadly long-distance attackers, hurling an endless stream of hammers non-stop at their enemies. However, they are also vulnerable to attacks from close range. Hammer Bros. also rarely attack solo and are usually backed up by a nearby "bro". It is certain if any of them are actually biologically related, or if it is just a title. They seem to have inspired similar-looking Koopas with "Bro" in their names, such as the Boomerang Bros. and the Fire Bros..
The Hammer Bros. are often portrayed as the elite fighters in Bowser's forces.
Variations[edit]
First, there are different variations on Hammer Bros. themselves:
- Amazing Flyin' Hammer Bros. - This is a type of Hammer Bro that rides on a connected set of winged blocks while throwing hammers. They appear to be smaller than normal Hammer Bros. They originally appear in place of the normal Hammer Bros. in New Super Mario Bros., and they reappear in Super Princess Peach with a Calm variant.
- Calm Hammer Bros. - An emotional variant of the Hammer Bro influenced by the Vibe Scepter's power in Super Princess Peach. They spend most of their time sleeping due to their state of calmness, but if Peach awakens one of them, they will begin attacking normally.
- Chariot Bros. - A type of Hammer Bro that rides a chariot pulled by a Chain Chomp and still attacks with hammers. Only one appears in Paper Mario: Color Splash, aiding Iggy Koopa and a Chariot Snifit in a battle at The Golden Coliseum. The chariot allows him to dodge all attacks, unless Mario uses a bone to stop the chariot.
- Dark Hammer Bros. - A stronger version of the Hammer Bros. with features obscured completely by darkness. They appear in Super Paper Mario in the Flopside Pit of 100 Trials.
- Juggler Bros. - These are Hammer Bros. who wear tophats with orange and yellow stripes, and they specifically juggle their hammers in battle. They appear as enemies in Paper Mario: Color Splash. They can be summoned by Lemmy Koopa's wand, and some of them also team up with Circus Bros. (a variant of Boomerang Bros.) as the Pentabros.
- Small Hammer Bros. - A small version of the Hammer Bros., with their size having been changed by Kamek's magic. They appear as enemies in the Sacred Forest in Paper Mario: Color Splash.
Then, there are the other types of "Bro" enemies:
- Boomerang Bros. - These are recurring enemies who throw boomerangs instead of hammers.
- Chomp Bros. - These types Bros. are large, green-skinned and muscular, with helmets that partially obscure their eyes. They spin around Chain Chomps and throw them at enemies, but they will sometimes cry and flee a battle if they are left without any Chomps. They only appear in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.
- Fire Bros. - They are recurring enemies who have the ability to shoot fireballs.
- Ice Bros. - They are similar to the Fire Bros., except that they shoot out balls of ice instead.
- Sledge Bros. - These are heftier versions of the Hammer Bros. who wield giant sledgehammers and create small tremors with their movements.
- Spiked Pirate - This enemy is a green Koopa wearing a spiked helmet. He appears as the first boss in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 and is battled at Rice Beach. He has to be rammed into by attacking his soft belly. He is connected to the Hammer Bros. by his Japanese name, which is Toge (Spike) Bros.
- Sumo Bros. - They are squat Koopas who look different from other Bro. variants and stomp on the ground to make fire rain down.
- Yo Bros. - They are green-skinned Koopas who were colorful clothing that seems to be inspired by hip hop fashion. They wield a yo-yo in each hand, one red and one green. Each yo-yo is used to target the Mario brother wearing the matching color. It can charge up its attacks to do more damage and will also feint attacks. They appear only in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.
Appearances[edit]
They originally appeared in Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. In Super Mario Bros. 3, Hammer Bros. are found wandering in the overworld map in each world. Whenever Mario or Luigi comes to one, he will engage one or two Hammer Bros. (or a different type of Bro, depending on the world) in a short quazi-boss battle. After the Hammer Bros. are defeated, the winner would get a new item. It was possible to skip the fights entirely by putting all the Bros. to sleep with a Music Box. The Hammer Bros. Suit appeared as an item in the same game.
Hammer Bros. appeared as mini-bosses in Yoshi's Safari. They have gone on to appear in various adventure titles such as Super Princess Peach, New Super Mario Bros., New Super Mario Bros.

Later in the game a green Hammer Brother, named Dr. Topper, engaged Mario in mind-bending puzzles at Bowser's Keep.
The Hammer Bros. also appear as somewhat powerful enemies in the Paper Mario games and Mario & Luigi games. In Superstar Saga, a pair of NPCs called the Border Bros. appeared and played the Border Jump minigame with the Mario Bros., which was essentially a version of jump rope.
