Mario is always represented by his trademark red color. The mini-games test Mario's luck, skill, and endurance and reward him with coins. In the first three Mario Party games, Mario aimed to become the superstar. Though Mario doesn't have many distinguishable abilities from the other Mario Party characters, the most notable difference is Mario's ability to use the [[Fireball Orb]] in ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Whenever Mario used an [[Orb]] on a space, the space would have Mario's "M" insignia. As revealed in the official artwork of ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', Mario's item of choice is the [[Mega Mushroom]]. Mario's Duel Mode partner is the defensive [[Koopa Troopa]] in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', and the booklet says that his favorite item is the [[Golden Mushroom]]. He also challenged the player for the Courage [[Star Stamp]] if he was not selected. Throughout the series, Mario's famed jumping ability is also evened out with the other characters, leveling the playing field. This also shows Mario's chemistry between other player when they team up.
