    24. Wiggler

    Nintendo

    Just a dumb, angry bug.

    23. Cheep Cheep

    Nintendo

    In a world with skeletal turtles and sentient bullets, this just a regular fish.

    22. Goomba

    Nintendo

    Just an evil mushroom. Nothing to see here.

    21. Shy Guy

    Nintendo

    What are these guys supposed to be? Besides annoying, I mean.

    20. Koopa Troopa

    Nintendo

    Gets extra points for taking hits to kill, but can also be used for killing his friends.

    19. Monty Mole

    Nintendo

    Nothing more than a slight inconvenience.

    18. Paratroppa

    Nintendo

    Pros: Has wings. Cons: Just a Koopa Troopa with wings.

    17. Lakitu

    Nintendo

    Lakitu is a species, not a single person, but the fact that that is unclear costs them some serious points.

    16. Thwomp

    Nintendo

    Sure, you can't kill them, but as long as you stay out of their way they can't hurt you either.

    15. Whomp

    Nintendo

    Attacks by slamming their faces into the ground. They're idiots.

    14. Pokey

    Nintendo

    They're hard to jump over but they're also dumb enough to walk into quicksand and die.

    13. Fuzzy

    Nintendo

    I don't know what they are but they terrify me.

    12. Blooper

    Nintendo

    As if water levels weren't annoying enough.

    11. Bullet Bill

    Nintendo

    A slow-moving, iron projectile of death is still an iron projectile of death.

    10. Hammer Bros.

    Nintendo

    Too fast to jump on and too fast to dodge. A deadly combination.

    9. Fire Bros.

    Nintendo

    What's better than throwing hammers? How about throwing fire?

    8. Spiney

    Nintendo

    Koopa troopas could take a lesson from these guys.

    7. Pirahna Plant

    Nintendo

    Makes you think twice before going down that pipe.

    6. Fire Snake

    Nintendo

    It's a snake made out of fire. What more do you need?

    5. Magikoopa

    Nintendo

    They have magic powers. 'Nuff said.

    4. Dry Bones

    Nintendo

    All you want is for that platform to come back down and this guy not to kill you before then.

    3. Bob-omb

    Nintendo

    A talking, walking bomb. Why does Bowser need those turtles again?

    2. Boo

    Nintendo

    Forces strategic thinking in a platformer. Well done.

    1. Chain Chomp

    Nintendo

    Just stay away. This guy will mess you up.
