They are good swimmers and often inhabit cold climates, like their real-world {{wp|penguin|counterpart}}s, to which they bear varying degrees of resemblance, depending on the game. Many also inhabit tropical areas, as seen in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Most of them do not hurt [[Mario]], though they sometimes act as obstacles or hindrances to his quest. Friendly penguins often speak with Mario, sometimes asking for his help or offering him a service. | ||
Penguins from the '' | Penguins from the ''Mario'' franchise are colored a moderate dark shade of blue with white bellies, making them similar to [[Bumpty|Bumpties]]. They also resemble {{wp|little penguin}}s, also colored dark blue. Uncommonly in the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise, ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' feature red, green, and yellow penguins (the red one in the latter having long, yellow eyebrows similar to {{wp|rockhopper penguin}}s), while a purple one appears in the latter. [[Penguru]] and [[Coach (Super Mario Galaxy)|Coach]] are colored similar to both {{wp|king penguin}}s and {{wp|emperor penguin}}s and are gray and black respectively. In some games, the back of their heads is tapered by a small crest. | ||

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', penguins reappear residing in the [[Loopdeeloop Galaxy]], [[Sea Slide Galaxy]], [[Drip Drop Galaxy]], [[Buoy Base Galaxy]], [[Loopdeeswoop Galaxy]] and [[Beach Bowl Galaxy]]. There is also one lone penguin in [[Freezeflame Galaxy]], and an elderly penguin named [[Penguru]] in the Drip Drop Galaxy, Bigmouth Galaxy, and Sea Slide Galaxy. Usually, the penguins will challenge Mario to a water challenge, such as surfing, collecting shells, or racing them. They are quite friendly, and will give Mario tips on how to swim, or even help him find [[Silver Star]]s. In the Loopdeeloop Galaxy and Loopdeeswoop Galaxy, the penguins spend their time [[ray surfing|surfing on ray]]s. They also have a [[Coach (Super Mario Galaxy)|Coach]] which is a black penguin bigger than normal penguins who teaches Mario (and Luigi) how to use [[shell]]s to swim with. The penguins in this game are shown to live in more tropical areas than the previous games, which had penguins living mainly in cold areas. The penguin race mission of [[Sea Slide Galaxy]] contains a penguin smaller than Mario and any other penguin found in the game.

In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', Penguin can be found playing games at the [[Ice Game Room]], and is a big fan of playing the games there. When the Game Room is entered, he introduces himself and the arcade before asking for some help. If his request is accepted, he explains that he wanted to propose to his girlfriend, [[List of implied characters#Pengwen|Pengwen]], and had been trying to win enough money for a ring at the game room. However, after a while of playing, he ended up completely broke. Penguin then asks for the player to win enough money for him, and in exchange, they get the minigame that they play, [[Drop 'Em]].
