The Koopa Bros. are a quartet of costumed ninja Koopa Troopas consisting of Green Ninjakoopa, Yellow Ninjakoopa, Black Ninjakoopa and the leader, Red Ninjakoopa. A spoof of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the team appeared in Paper Mario as the bosses of the first chapter. They live in Koopa Bros. Fortress and are part of Bowser's Koopa Troop.
While the Koopa Bros. are all egotistical and obsessed with being cool, they have a great deal of respect for both Bowser and each other and are entrusted by him to guard Eldstar. The theme that plays during the fight with the Koopa Bros. is a rearrangement of the Hammer Bros. theme from Super Mario Bros. 3.
Durability:Varies. Island level, up to Universe level (Can take hits from Mario and his partners), Far Higher with their shells (Koopa Shells are naturally above their standard durability)
Range:Standard Melee, Extended Melee Range with the Bowser Suit
Intelligence: At least Above Average (Built a Bowser suit to fight Mario with, able to capture Bombette, and lured traps and puzzles all over their castle)
Standard Tactics: The Koopa Bros. will typically group up and fight their opponents with their shells, or use their suit and Bullet Bills in combat.
Weaknesses: If they get knocked down on their back, they will struggle to get up.

↑"If you're familiar with things like Popeye and some of the old comic characters, you would oftentimes see this cast of characters that takes on different roles depending on the comic or cartoon," Miyamoto said. "They might be businessman in one [cartoon] or a pirate in another. Depending on the story that was being told, they would change roles. So, to a certain degree, I look at our characters in a similar way and feel that they can take on different roles in different games."
