Mario has been shown on very occasions, such as certain cutscenes in ''Mario Power Tennis'', but often in ''Super Mario-Kun'', to have an almost overbearing attitude towards his brother. However, this could also just be Mario's outgoing "big brother" personality interacting with Luigi's more introverted nature. While Mario will accept help and even partners during his adventures, at times he may also resent the implication that he needs the help in the first place. Despite this, he seems to enjoy their company.

Mario shows generally good sportsmanship, even complimenting his opponents, as shown in instances like ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Fortune Street]]'', as well as smiling if he loses in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. However, in other spin-offs, he is usually sad after a loss and sometimes sobs. For example, in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', if he does not place on the podium, he is shown wiping a tear. In ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', if he attains a Double Bogey, he throws a small fit. It has been said that Mario loves animals, especially the most unusual ones,<ref name="1993 Nintendo Character Manual"/> and he also enjoys music, particularly opera or new-wave Europop,<ref name="1993 Nintendo Character Manual"/> although there is no further comment for these statements. ''Mario Strikers Charged'' gives Mario a rock-n'-roll theme for his entrance and scoring animations and an orchestrated theme for his Super Ability.

Mario has occasionally shown aggressive or vulgar tendencies throughout his appearances, albeit in a lighthearted and comic-relief manner; a notable exception is in ''[[Super Mario Momotarō]]'', when Mario is shown holding a gun and aiming at Bowser, albeit to intimidate him. In ''Super Mario-kun'', Mario is short-tempered and resorts to yelling at his friends for failing or taking uncalled-for actions; Mario himself is not above certain vulgar actions, such as farting to taunt his opponents or urinating on Yoshi, and he also cross-dresses several times, though these actions are not restricted to Mario. The title itself and the art style of the ''Super Mario-kun'' manga also depict Mario with a childish personality. "Kun" is a generally masculine Japanese honorific for juniors such as boys or teenagers.
