The Bowser Family Tree - The History Of The Koopa King! 🐲🐢

He’s the King of the Koopas, the crusher of plumbers–and the most iconic video game villain of all time. He’s King Bowser Koopa. If you’re a casual fan of the Mario games, it might be easy to dismiss him as the big, angry turtle who likes kidnapping Princess Peach. But while that’s not necessarily wrong–in fact, it’s pretty darn accurate–a deeper dive into the lore of the Mario series reveals that there’s more to this big guy than meets the eye– including a pretty big Family Tree..

Maybe Bowser’s brother is the actual father of the Koopalings, who’s a deadbeat dad. Bowser, actually being loyal to his family, took in his abandoned niece and nephews.

I'd love another RPG game with Bowser Jr. and the Koopalings. These 8 have a great family dynamic despite only 1 of them being biologicaly related to Bowser.

In Paper Jam, Peach admitted that she enjoyed riding around in Bowser’s clown car.

The reason the Koopalings had different names in the cartoon is because Nintendo of America hadn't come up with names for them yet. They were unnamed in the Japanese version until Japan adopted their American names.

Bowser: Hey bro, you mind fighting Mario downstairs?
Dry Bowser: Sure bro

Some of those edits were amazing! The Home Alone one was priceless.

I feel bad for Lemmy for the fact he causes no harm and he's just a little happy loving child that just want someone to play on bouncy balls

Every Ganondorf Incarnation: Evil to Most Evil

[noahstoeckel]

"Most psychotic video game villain of all time." I could name many villains far crazier than Bowser. Even Mario villains like Fawful and Dimentio.

[kaywilliams]

My theory for the Koopalings are they were Bowser's Brother children, and after Mario "killed" him, Bowser took care of them

[MRM_Petey]

Honestly, I’ve always told myself that bowser jr. was the next generation of star children

[xthriteenx]

Wait miyamoto is jrs mother, but he’s also said he’s Mario’s father LORE MOMENT

[rainbow]

So when you think about it, Kamek is the reason Bowser turned out so evil

[juanca]

Easy head canon: Bowser’s Brother is often Dry Bowser when the original Bowser is busy (New Super Mario Bros 2, Island Tour, Paper Jam, etc.) and is the father of the koopalings which Bowser now takes care of. Bowser’s brother might even be named Morton, explaining Jr in Morton Koopa Jr. As to where the Bowser species kids (koopalings and Bowser jr) they might have just simply been made in a cauldron and were made with their DNA in the mix (think of how The PowerPuff Girls handled that with the titular characters and their rivals the RowdyRuff Boys). These could literally be the canon reasons for the Mario Movie universe in the sequel (a trilogy is confirmed by Bowser’s French voice actor).

[dr.dubiousfeverdream]

regarding the relatives of kamek, i feel like you should have talked about kamella, i feel like there has to be some relation to kamella and kammy koopa

[nebulavonmad]

With all due respect, bowser and Baby bowser are literally the same person. Even dry bowser. Wouldn't it be less confusing and more lore accurate to put them in the same spot?

[bemasaberwyn]

Morton was named after Downey for his trash talking nature

[SeanSearcy]

Bowser's younger twin brother: Blue Bowser. Or Bruce. Who is the biological uncle of Bowser Jr. And The blood-father of the koopalings. Wow 😮 he haven't seen his brother in years. Alongside with thier Mom and Dad. When they were kids.

[connorcunis]

thank you for pointing out that lemmy is clearly the youngest maybie nintendo is tricking us
