Bowser

 * Throws his head back, spinning it in a circle, and roars.

Captain Falcon

 * Facing right: Salutes and exclaims "Show me your moves!"
 * Facing left: Performs a more exaggerated salute and says "Show me your moves!" This taunt ends quicker than the his other taunt.

Donkey Kong

 * Faces the camera and shrugs his shoulders, making a confused noise.

Dr. Mario

Kirby

Link

 * Sheathes his sword and shield and brushes back his hair.

Luigi

 * Crosses his arms behind his back and performs a small, shy kick. The kick can damage an opponent if it connects, acting as a meteor smash. However, its pitiful range and slow startup severely limits its effectiveness. It is similar to his pose when he loses a minigame in Mario Party 2.

Mario
