In this form, Mario and Luigi resemble a [[Hammer Bro]] and, like one, are able to throw an infinite supply of [[hammer]]s in a short upward arc (which can be lengthened by pressing forward on the {{button|nes|Pad}}). Hammers can defeat most enemies, even those that cannot be defeated with [[fireball]]s, such as the [[Angry Sun]], [[Buzzy Beetle]]s, [[Boo]]s, [[Bullet Bill]]s, [[Chain Chomp]]s, [[Dry Bones]], [[Fire Snake|Firesnake]]s, [[Hot Foot]]s, [[Lava Bubble|Podoboo]]s, [[Para-Beetle]]s, [[Stretch (Boo)|Stretch]]es, and [[Thwomp]]s; they can also defeat [[Boom Boom]] and [[Bowser]]. As such, Hammer Mario and Luigi can be considered a stronger version of [[Fire Mario]] and Luigi. As with fireballs, only two hammers can be thrown at a time, but hammers can fly through ceilings, walls, and floors. Mario and Luigi can also block enemies' fireballs in this form by crouching, but they cannot [[Slope Slide]].

As with fireballs, only two hammers can be thrown at a time, but hammers can fly through ceilings, walls, and floors. Mario and Luigi can also block enemies' fireballs in this form by crouching, but they cannot [[slide]] down slopes. However, they can slide down a slope if they get a Hammer Suit while already sliding, though only in [[World 6-10]]'s bonus room.


Despite the official artwork depicting Hammer Mario with his normal outfit colors underneath, his NES sprite depicts him with a white shirt, white shoes, and black overalls, while his 16-bit sprites depict him with a brown shirt and gray overalls.

''Super Mario Advance 4'' adds a new utility to this form: its hammers can break [[Gray Brick Block]]s.

In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', its [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|Nintendo 3DS version]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', knocking on a [[Warp Door]] in the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' theme may cause [[Weird Mushroom (item)|Weird Mario]] to appear in this form. In the latter game, [[Builder Mario]]'s hammer swing can break Hard Blocks (similar to the Rock Blocks in ''Super Mario Advance 4'') and defeat most usually unbeatable foes, like this form.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', despite the lack of power-ups (due to Mario gaining the [[Capture]] ability), Mario can capture an actual Hammer Bro in the game using [[Cappy]] and throw hammers to attack, as a reference to this form.
[[File:ReptilesintheRoseGarden6.jpg|thumb|200px|Mario and Luigi disguised as Sledge Brothers]]
*In the episode "[[Reptiles in the Rose Garden]]" in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Mario and Luigi wear [[Sledge Bro]]ther disguises that make them resemble the Hammer form, in an attempt to hijack the [[Airship|Doom Ship]], only for the disguises to end in failure from tricking the Sledge Brothers piloting the ship.
*In ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'', Mario can throw hammers to attack similarly to the Hammer form when he [[capture]]s a Hammer Bro.
*This is the only form from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' that has yet to reappear in a later ''Super Mario'' game (barring reissues).
