User Info: Hirokey Yeah everyone there was just being a jerk he made a valid point that an epidemic affecting mushroom kingdom is his problem as well because whether they acknowledge it or not he is in fact ruler of a good chunk of it. Instead though they all treated Bowser poorly so much for being heroes and he attacked them because of it.

I've got a quote that embodies you perfectly, but it's seventy-three posts long, has a few massive flowcharts, and lots of Xion- KMA to Me. User Info: CaioNV. Not cool my dad dude. You might be the fearsome magical king of all Koopas, but that doesn't mean you can skip respecting the ladies. What kind of lessons is Bowser Jr. Come on. This is the other side of a that whole "giving his kids jobs and paying them" business. He keeps spending all these resources on fighting Mario.

And not just him fighting Mario, but making his kids fight this grown-ass man as well. And they keep losing. And then he regathers himself, rebuilds, and does it again! There's something to be said about being forced into a job because your dad did it, but as a Koopaling or Bowser Jr. As few the reasons the are that Bowser might not be a great dad, the couple reasons that are there are pretty dang rough. However, when it comes to his kid or the kids he looks after, Bowser genuinely puts in the work.

He cares, but not so much that he's a helicoptor pop. Sure, he might be a fire-breathing, rotten-mood, tyrant bent on beating up a mustachiod plumber and stealing his lady, but the fact that in all of that he still finds time to make or commission castles for his kids, be involved in their lives, and let them explore their own opportunities makes him a pretty responsible Koopa parent.

And just occasionally a crummy one when he throws them at Mario like fodder. What do you think? Did I miss any damning or saving evidence of Bowser's parental prowess? What's your take on this big bad dad? Already have an account? Of course he is a moron. User Info: Hirokey Bowser is a self aware military dictator. He knows he is cool and awesome and revels in being the bad guy.

As such it is perfectly logical that he wants his big long awaited day to be as extravagant as possible. He even accounted ahead of time for Mario catching up to him and made a pit stop in ruined kingdom to pick up a Giant lightning controlling dragon to off him near the end. You also have to give him credit, his way of getting enough power to reach the moon way more efficient than Mario's. Like Mario scrounged up moons bit by bit while Bowser just loads up all at once in New Donk city by siphoning all their power.

User Info: rrk I mean even if he follows through with the marriage, is that supposed to suddenly stop mario? Even though it was against her will, my hands are now tied. Guess I'll just go home now". OmigawdMatt posted I don't know. The stew I could agree with rrk posted It's surprising that Mario hasn't erected statues across the Mushroom Kingdom in his honor.

Seeing as these Amiibos are somewhat rare, specifically the gold edition which was a Wal-Mart exclusive, I really wouldn't put it past Mario to be the jerk who buys these Amiibos in bulk and scalps them online for higher prices. If gold and silver plated Amiibos didn't convey Mario's level of narcissism enough, then the fact that Mario thinks it's all about him sure does. Imagine having a friend that's constantly calling you up to do fun things.

Go go kart racing, play baseball, throwing fun parties But also imagine that friend constantly placing his name in front of said activity. Surely, he could just call these activities by their normal names or at the very least make it easier to relate with by maybe calling it "Mushroom Kingdom Bowling" or whatever. Even Princess Peach, the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom, isn't vain enough to put her name in everything. We already touched on the subject that Mario is willing to harm children, considering his role in Donkey Kong Jr.

Originally depicted as Bowser's children, the Koopalings are consistently forced to do their father's bidding, but this doesn't stop the plumber in red from beating the crap out of them.

Sure, their size and demeanor give Mario a plausible reason to rightfully defend himself, yet a reasonable adult should have some sort of moral dilemma about hitting a child. Whether it's physically hitting them, shooting fireballs at their skulls, or knocking them into pools of lava, Mario is one twisted individual to place so much harm on a minor. One wouldn't really peg Princess Peach to be a victim of domestic violence, yet we've seen Mario attack her repeatedly.

The Super Smash Bros. While characters like Samus Aran, Princess Zelda, or Lady Palutena are no strangers to a fight or have a wide range of abilities that allow them to be formidable foes, Princess Peach's main line of defense is random household items like a frying pan or a parasol.

Princess Peach is far from the strongest female fighter and is often depicted as rather helpless, as she is consistently being kidnapped by Bowser and his minions and rarely attempts to fight back. For Mario to be so willing to punch a lady, throw fireballs at her, or throw her off a ledge all while being her supposedly heroic boyfriend make him quite the jerk.

Sure, Wario may be known as the typical money-obsessed villain of the Nintendo corporation, but did you ever really think that maybe Mario isn't much better? There's really not much Mario won't do to make a quick buck other than actual plumbing, of course. While he seems to frequently be saving wealthy princesses all across the galaxy, he's also willing to put their rescues to a halt if it means obtaining more gold.

He will go far out of the way of his adventure to collect every last coin scattered or hidden across the Mushroom Kingdom.

This is far more apparent in New Super Mario Bros. Wario may be seen as Nintendo's money hungry character, but Mario is rarely much better.
