====''Mario Tennis''====
▲Mario is a playable character in all games of the ''Mario Tennis'' series. In all games in the series - ''[[Mario Tennis (Nintendo 64)|Mario Tennis]]'' for the Nintendo 64, ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'' for the Nintendo GameCube, ''[[Mario Tennis: Power Tour]]'' for the Game Boy Advance, and ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]'' for the Nintendo 3DS - he is an all-around character. In ''[[Mario Tennis (Game Boy Color)|Mario Tennis]]'' for the Game Boy Color, Mario is an unlockable character, and can be unlocked by completing the Singles Mario Tour.
In the intro for ''Mario Tennis'' for the [[Nintendo 64]], Mario is one of the participants of the tournament. Here, he defeats [[Donkey Kong]] to gain access to the semifinals. In the semifinals, he defeats [[Yoshi]] and moves on to the finals against [[Luigi]]. While the two brothers are looking for the missing tennis ball prior to the match, [[Wario]] and his partner, [[Waluigi]], appear and cause mischief. After this, [[Bowser]] and a [[Boo]] appear. Everyone stands back in fear, thinking that the two came to cause trouble as well. However, Bowser and the Boo reveal that they simply want to play a nice game of tennis, to which Mario exclaims, "Let's all play!" and all of them agree and cheer. Initially unknown to the cast, however, a [[Bob-omb]] walks onto the court and explodes.
In the game, Mario is an all-around playable character, and he has several themed courts including the [[Mario Bros. Court]], the [[Mario & Luigi Court]], and the [[Super Mario Court]]. In the doubles version of tournament mode, his AI doubles partner is Luigi. Additionally, if Peach is the human player, Mario is her partner. Mario plays as a referee when not being used. Mario, however, also has a clone of himself wearing a blue cap, who replaces his role as a referee, but can appear even if Mario is not being used. The referee wears different outfits depending on the tournament. Mario is also the announcer in the game.
In ''Mario Power Tennis'', Mario and Luigi are the only all-around characters. Unlike in other games, Mario and Luigi have subtle differences within each other. While they have nearly identical movement speed, Mario has more power while Luigi has slightly more reach and more control. Mario, when compared to other characters, has a slightly below-average reach and lunge because of his short stature. Mario is stronger than most non-power characters. All his other stats are average. Mario's [[Offensive Power Shot]] has his racket transform into a giant mallet, which enables him to hit the ball with high speed and force; opponents that return the ball may get blasted to the back of the court. Mario's [[Defensive Power Shot]] is a simple spin that allows him to reach lobs and faraway balls quickly, but it is one of the few Defensive Power Shots that fail when the ball is too far away. Mario's taunt is him waving and saying "Come on!".▼

Mario has appeared occasionally in several trophy-earning cutscenes in ''Mario Power Tennis''. While Mario has appeared more than most characters in these cutscenes, Luigi appears in most trophy-earning cutscenes.

In ''Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash'', Mario's tennis racket color is slightly different in this game; rather than being a solid blue, Mario's racket is predominantly red and blue with some white.
====''Mario Tennis Aces''====
In ''Mario Tennis Aces'', Mario by default wears a new tennis outfit. However, his standard outfit could be unlocked by either participating in the online tournament demo or accumulating 500 participation points in the January 2019 online tournament. Also, Mario was among the characters that could be played as in the online tournament demo. During the game's adventure mode, Mario is, for most of the missions, the playable character as the player must collect the five [[Power Stone]]s to stop [[Lucien]]. As of the game's version 2.0.0 update, the player can unlock a costume for Mario that has him wielding a Lucien replica while wearing his tennis outfit by completing [[Last Trial Boss Challenge]].
