Remarkable :]
Most of these sprites are simply stunning. Your general pallet really is bright colourfull and even dull colors work well in your self-created style! Not even the colors are one of your style's features, but also the general art. With that i mean the toony twist. You give your interpretation, and still stay close to their actual designs. I really notice that when I look at the goombas and the shyguys. I have seen few shyguys have their mask as facial expressions. But, I don't know why but amidst you're bending the rules, you make it look so creative!
The Boo's are actually my favourite. The roundness is very well rendered with Anti-aliasing. However, the top of the boo is better anti-aliased than the bottom. Try to get rid of that 3rd shade and keep the boo simply cellshaded. The 3rd shade is merely visible anyways. But the general shades are lovely though :]
When it comes to the shyguys, maybe you could move the face (3 holes only) up by a pixel? It looks like he's looking much lower as the other characters. The others seem to see straight ahead. Their arms could also be a bit more highlighted. With that I mean you could make the shading stronger under their little cute arms. Since few light even reaches that place. But I don't mean armpits! So sorry for any confusion ^^
The Koopa's are very nice. My only problem is the highly saturated pixels of orange/vermilion. Try to make them either browner or duller. And how come the Koopa troopa's have thicker thighs? maybe separate the legs a bit more like you did with the Koopatroopas. They looked absolutely lovely!
The shells themselves are kinda saturated as well and could have less shine, since they already have lotsa contrast. The bombs and shroobs are kickass as well. Bribrock looks great, and I suppose he's from the new M&L game? that's cool :]
Mario and luigi are cute looking and it's a nice touch. You could just make them a bit more relaxed (playing around with the arms and feet might do the trick c: !) and try to make them look even more different from eachother.
These sprites really have a lot of potential, and I simply love them, and looking forward for improvement and even more of these! c:
