We can stomp on Goombas and Koopas all day long, but Mario has encountered some pretty tough bosses. For this list, we’ll be looking at the toughest fights Mario has had to endure. However, we’re only looking at the main series, no spin-offs. Our list includes Fiery Gobblegut from “Super Mario Galaxy 2” (2010), Phantamanta from “Super Mario Sunshine” (2002), Knucklotec from “Super Mario Odyssey” (2017), and more! Which of these bosses made you want to leave Peach to her own devices? Share your thoughts in the comments!

I agree, was coming into the comments to say this. That battle was so memorable and fun I remember playing it to death as a kid. I never thought it was hard. Played it again recently as an adult and still found it easy. The trick is to just grab the coins as they pop up, and use the hoover nozzle when you get cornered to splash a landing.

You just have to stay in the middle of the screen and wait for Meowser to appear at the top or the bottom of the screen and then climb or slide down. I even get bored because the screen scrolls so slowly. And I'm always waiting until I can finally hit the POW Block at the top of the tower and end the fight.

I didn't see it stated here, but in the final phase of Baby Bowser in Yoshi's Island, if you don't hit him fast enough, he will continue to run towards you until he runs through the entire stage (or what remains of it anyway), destroying all of it and instantly killing you. It definitely adds tension, along with a time limit.

I don’t think anything will top the sunshine electric mantas. That’s the only thing in this list I had to try more than 5 times as a kid to beat. Even the final level of super Mario sunshine only took me two attempts and 64 final bowser battle was first try. Imo beyond that the only harder bosses are in the RPGs, like the shadow queen or any M&L final boss. I never struggled in Galaxy or odyssey or even barely in sm3Dw. Granted as an adult now I can beat the phantamanta pretty easily, but as a kid, that level was unbeaten for months. I was so excited to play the rest of that world.

You didn't even mention the worst part of the fight against Fiery Gobblegut. Sure, he leaves lava pools behind, but those are easy to avoid. The _really_ hard part is that Fiery Gobblegut is, well, on fire. You can't even touch him except at his bellyache bulges, and every time you do, you take fire damage, which takes a few seconds for Mario to recover from. By the time he does, you've missed your chance at damaging the boss. This fact alone is what made Fiery Gobblegut rage-inducing for me. It wasn't the lava pools; it was the type of damage Mario took every time he touched Fiery Gobblegut. It drove me crazy! I did manage to beat him, but it was really annoying!
