- BestJaxx, on 11/06/2007, -1/+29Has anyone ever thought that Peach is Bowser's daughter? Also, Baby Bowser constantly refers to her as "Mama," and if we are to assume that in fact, Baby Bowser/Bowser Jr. is Bowser's son, and what Baby Bowser says is true, that Bowser has had sexual relations with Peach. I see a Springer episode in the making.
- navster15, on 11/06/2007, -1/+28Surely anyone who rides around in a gigantic smiley face can't be all bad. ;)
- tsbardella, on 11/06/2007, -11/+37Classic Destructoid - well researched, well reasoned and humorous. Food for thought, definitely.
- AreTooDeTo, on 11/07/2007, -1/+17"Peach’s essentially useless “Princess” title seems to come from virtually nowhere: princess to whom? If she were the rightful princess, we’d have met (or at least heard mention of) her father, the Mushroom King. Since we’ve never heard so much as an utterance about this character outside of the Super Mario Bros movie (which isn’t canon, obviously), it is therefore reasonable to assume that Peach awarded herself the faux-royal title."
Didn't Super Mario 3 have a King you had to rescue that was tranformed into an animal by Bowser and his cohorts? - UberNick, on 11/09/2007, -3/+17Dugg for the Stones reference
- ChunkyGork, on 11/07/2007, -1/+14ROFL! Read the titles of the pictures in this article.
"NICE PICTURE-FINDING SKILLS, ANTHONY. COULD IT BE ANY MORE CLUTTERED DO YOU THINK" - lucidapathy, on 11/06/2007, -0/+13My favorite alt tag: One time when I was in junior high, my friends and I got into an argument over whether his name was "Bowser" or "Koopa." We had this argument very loudly, right next to the popular kids table, and at one point one of them just turned to me and goes, "Hey -- are you guys the cool kids in school?" By this point I'd realized how dumb the argument was and I had resigned myself to just shaking my head with my eyes closed, resigned to the fact that I would never get to touch a vagina.
- inactive, on 11/06/2007, -1/+12It's not Bowser's fault that you're a moron who went to the wrong castle. If anything, I blame those goddamn mushroom retainers for never giving me straight directions.
- SilentSpyder, on 11/06/2007, -0/+11Shameless plug.
http://kennyvelez.com/images/illustration/smck.jpg - psg188, on 11/06/2007, -0/+11That's because gimpyfish is amazing, not because Bowser is good.
Just because Taj kicks ass with Mewtwo doesn't make him a good character either. - ircgoliath, on 11/08/2007, -0/+10Do not let Dr. Mario touch your genitals! He is not a real doctor.
- Purin, on 11/06/2007, -4/+13Bowser sucks in Melee?
You obviously have not seen gimpyfish's Bowser. - ChunkyGork, on 11/06/2007, -0/+8Mouse-over the pictures or right click and hit properties on the pictures to see what I'm talking about. I dunno why I'm being buried.
Here's another quote from the pictures:
"You notice how people always refer to them as "fiery redheads," as if everyone didn't mentally equate "red" with "fire" anyway? "Her hair was sunny blonde." Gee, thanks, because I didn't know what color blonde most resembled." - zeromancer, on 11/06/2007, -1/+9I tried to not let myself be convinced that Bowser is indeed a good guy. I look at it more as a lover's quarrel now. Mario just wasn't doing his job so Peach decided to sleep around. Why do women cause so many problems?
- doshindude, on 11/06/2007, -5/+13Last I checked, we all hated destructoid.
- FieldAnonymouse, on 11/06/2007, -0/+7Several in fact. But I don't think you can be princess to more than one king, and given that they're all different lands, it may be safe to assume that none of them are technically the "Mushroom Kingdom."
However it's been years since I really looked at SMB3, so I could be mistaken about details. - dafragsta, on 11/06/2007, -1/+8Anyone else ever notice that Bowser has two kids named "Lemmy" and "Iggy," and there is a mini-boss in Super Mario World named Reznor?
Are these the obvious references I think they are? (That'd be a pretty sweet nod in Trent's case, since Pretty Hate Machine came out not a terribly long time before SMW, and NIN wasn't anywhere close to as popular then.) - BestJaxx, on 11/05/2007, -0/+7You heard him. Get to work Mario 64 modders.
- slashbot, on 11/06/2007, -1/+8All hail King Bowser
- NeoCortex, on 11/08/2007, -0/+6Maybe there is a yet-undiscovered "Hot Coffee" mod in Mario 64 that would explain everything. The timetable works out right with Bowser Jr.'s first appearance in Sunshine, afterall.
- inactive, on 11/05/2007, -2/+8At first i thought they were talking about the guy from Sha Na Na
- luciferin, on 11/06/2007, -0/+5So that Mushroom King guy in Super Mario Bros. 3, who was he supposed to be? I mean this article was well researched and all so there is obviously no mention of a Mushroom King anywhere other than the movie. (Or the TV show).
- Flashman, on 11/06/2007, -0/+5Bowser isn't necessarily the rightful king - what if he took the throne in a coup de grace? His title and the mere proliferation of his soldiers doesn't give him legitimacy. That's like saying Hitler was king of Europe because there were a lot of Nazis in 1941. (Whoops, Godwin's law.)
His attempted marriage to Peach is a political tactic, not an act of love. Besides, who sympathizes with the creepy guy who kidnaps a girl? Blaming Princess Peach for being kidnapped is like saying a woman encouraged her own rape - senseless and brutal.
And speaking of his troops' loyalty, how much double-crossing could you expect in an army consisting of mindless drones which walk back and forth over the same territory? If Bowser cared for his troops, he'd try to ensure they weren't so easily slaughtered.
I'm looking forward to Destructoid's series on why the Medal of Honour series should be played from the Nazi point of view. - jeremymccurdy, on 11/06/2007, -4/+9It's amusing, I just hope this isn't the start of Destructoid spamming digg again.
- Rob223, on 11/06/2007, -1/+5Two Destructiod articles next to each other? I don't care. This is one of the best damn articles ever written.
- LostinJersey, on 11/06/2007, -0/+3each world had a king that was transformed into an animal
- Hodoufo, on 11/06/2007, -0/+3Hitler.
Mussolini.
Koopa.
...loved this - SaintStryfe, on 11/06/2007, -0/+3That shirt is full of unadulterated win, not from concentrate. If it's your work, aces. I'd buy that in a second.
- Burn, on 11/06/2007, -0/+3Is it possible to get a wallpaper quality version of that pic?
I've taken a look at your other stuff, brilliant work btw :). - daridave, on 11/06/2007, -0/+3We do. but it doesn't mean EVERYONE out there is stupid. Overall they are pathetic, but that article is great.
- SilentSpyder, on 11/06/2007, -0/+3I won't even think of selling it. I already got a take down notice from Nintendo (hence the weird filename).
- atkinso8, on 11/06/2007, -0/+3okay, so i think no one's else has commented on this.
but, there is a mushroom king, whom i assume is the peach's dad. at least according the super mario: the rpg. you know, where mack the knife is the boss at the end.
also, im almost positive that in at least one of the gameboy super mario games, bowser has stolen the princess AND turned the mushroom king (if that's her dad or not) into a weird creepy thing, for whom you must beat one of the koopa kids, take the wand, fall from the falling ship, and turn king what's-his-name back into a human mushroom thing.
so all other characters flaws aside (*cough cough ***** teasing bitch), the princess does has some legitimacy outside ron jeremy/mario look a like and questionable movie plots. - dolemite5005, on 11/06/2007, -1/+4Wait..i thought as Digg members we were supposed to collectively hate Destructoid and not digg anything on their site? Or was that last month's trend?
- SilentSpyder, on 11/06/2007, -0/+2find my email address and I'll email a copy. I'f you want I'll even give you the vector image so you can blow it up to the size of a wall.
- UndeadOverlord, on 11/06/2007, -0/+2I named my first Nintendog Bowser :-D
- wphj, on 11/05/2007, -0/+2He really does though... So slow. Dr. Mario is where it's at.
- postalblowfish7, on 11/06/2007, -2/+4"And yet, despite Peach’s treachery, Bowser’s main motivation for all his “illegal” actions still comes down to one simple, relatable, and absolutely heartbreaking reason: love."
***** wow. dugg. - sexybobo, on 11/06/2007, -0/+2http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-829440714 ...
- JJ, on 11/06/2007, -5/+7Dugg for being brilliant.
- king3vbo, on 11/06/2007, -0/+2Rev Anthony is win, and I lol'd many a time whilst reading said article
- bightchee, on 11/06/2007, -2/+4Super Mario Bros: training little usurpers of the throne for decades.
- jeremymccurdy, on 11/06/2007, -3/+5Last I checked, you seem to digg Destructoid articles more than anything else. Either you really do have a stiffy for that site, or you're taking part in the same ***** they used to do.
- koweja, on 11/06/2007, -0/+1This isn't Mario news.
And all of the Halo & Mario news might just be related to the fact that Halo 3 was released recently and Mario is getting released next week. Two very anticipated titles creating a lot of buzz on the Net? Inconceivable! - missingnoh4x, on 11/06/2007, -0/+1I should dig up this old story I saw with a thorough analysis of the plot of canon Mario games, which concludes that Peach is having an affair with Bowser, her cries for help are merely to save face, and Mario is completely unaware.
Look at Sunshine. The two of them were in a ***** hot tub together!
EDIT: Found it. http://baldacchino.blogspot.com/2004/12/toadstool- ... - Armitage2k, on 11/06/2007, -0/+1Sha-Na-Na forever baby!
- burnblue, on 11/06/2007, -0/+1I remembered that as I read the article (the Super Mario RPG King). The author knows about the game, so why did he ignore this?
- X9001, on 11/06/2007, -0/+1Yeah...he did kinda suck in Super Smash Brothers
