In Japan, it's still Koopa. I just don't understand Nintendo of America changing every one's name! It makes me sick! XP

Does Bowser have a wife?

Clawdia Koopa is mentioned in one issue of Nintendo Power UK.Nothing is known of her except her name and that she is or was Bowser's wife.There is much controversy surrounding whether or not she actually exists, as the Nintendo Power reference may not have been meant to be taken seriously.


What are the names of Bowser's kids?

cheatsey, kookie, kootie pie, hip, hop, bigmouth, bully, and bowser jr. -EDIT- Bowser has eight children, which are referred to as Koopalings (or Koopa Kids in the cartoons). As you read these, you can probably guess the origins of some of their names... In order from oldest to youngest: Ludwig von Koopa: (After Ludwig von Beethoven) The meanest, haughtiest, and most arrogant of the Koopalings. However, he enjoys listening to classical music, and is in fact a composer himself. Color representation: dark blue. Lemmy Koopa: (After Lemmy Kilmister) The most immature of them all, Lemmy seems to like his big bouncy yellow ball more than defeating Mario. Color representation: yellow. Roy Koopa: (After Roy Orbison) The bully of the kids. His head and sunglasses are colored pink (maybe in reference to the 'real men wear pink' saying?), and his shell (though originally pink as well) is colored purple. All together laid back and indifferent. Color representation: purple. Iggy Koopa: (After Iggy Pop) Seen to be very intelligent, yet demented. He is tallest and skinniest of the siblings. Color representation: lime green. Wendy O. Koopa: (After Wendy O. Williams) The only sister of the siblings, Wendy is a spoiled, whiny girl adorned in jewelry. Watch out! She has a very little temper. Color representation: pink. Morton Koopa Jr.: (After Morton Downey Jr.) The 'Jr.' to his name does not mean anything in-game; it is simply based on the man his character was named after. Morton's skin tone, darker than his brothers and sister, is due to the hot and dry climate he lives in. Color representation: black. Larry Koopa: (After Larry King) He is bad tempered and bratty, having been the youngest until Bowser Jr. was introduced. He will do anything to win. Color representation: sky blue. Bowser Jr.: (After Bowser!) The youngest, yet most devoted of the siblings. Bowser Jr. is Bowser's favorite child, and next in heir. He has a bandanna with a toothy-mouth design on it, which is tied around his neck. His appearance is more common than his siblings throughout the Mario series. Color representation: green.


Where did Mario get his hat?

Well after Mario (Jumpman) defeated Donkey Kong, Peach was so grateful she stitched him a hat. Then Jumpman changed his name to Mario. Then the Valley Of Bowser heard of the hero and the princess, so the went to the Koopa King. Then Bowser got to catch the princess. (3 times, too.) But Bowser invented a machine that had a face and got the princess again. Mario was in a new form then, and Luigi offered to help, and they found: Yoshi's Island, Donut Plains, Vanilla Dome, Butter Bridge, Forest Of Illusion, Chocolate Island, Valley Of Bowser, Star Road, and Special. Also known as Super Mario World. Then Sega came.
