4:10 but this is the dark star, enslaved by fawful to be specific. The context behing the dark bowser is in the NEO-peach's castle bowser swallows the dark star to defeat it, but after mario and luigi beat it goes inside bowser's brain and it eats his DNA, when dark fawful gets defeated later he turns into a worm and turns into dark bowser.
My little brother had a get to know the characters coloring book and they had a Bowser and they called him Craig with a K but I don’t know where the books at or if it had more information on this blue colored Bowser that was depicted in the coloring book as a reference. When I first seen it, I was confused replying. I thought his name was Bowser not Kraig. I’m not for sure if that was the correct name, but his name was different than the name Bowser.
I knew for a long time. I didn't know about the name Bruce though. However you probably should have mentioned how he's confirmed to be Bowser's brother in the instruction booklet of the Lost Levels, because for the people who don't know, it kinda sounds like you're pulling this idea that he's his brother out of nowhere. About these theories, I really think that they're false. Dry Bowser is Bowser for sure. Sure he appears alongside Bowser in Mario Kart and Mario Party, but not only are those non-canon spin-offs, characters like Peach and Pink Gold Peach can also appear at the same time. That doesn't mean Pink Gold Peach is her own character. For King Boo, it's interesting and fits with him being Luigi's nemesis as you said. Though it was never mentioned since it obviously wasn't Nintendo's intent, and it would also be disappointing in a way. Because that would mean we would never see him alive in his actual body, making his grand comeback with a modern design. And that would be a shame. And for Dark Bowser, this one is the most far-fatched. Dark Bowser's origins aren't tied to Bowser himself. Dark Bowser is the Dark Star, a celestial being containing dark powers that crashed on earth years ago and that was awoken by Fawful during the events of the game. It absorbed Bowser's DNA, taking on his appearance. I'm still hoping for the return of Bowser's brother. If I worked at Nintendo, I'd make him come back (I'd also write the best story, world-building and characterisation I could for this world and these characters since Nintendo won't do it). In fact, I really hoped for his return when we got the first trailer of Mario Wonder. Back then, we didn't know Bowser WAS the flying castle, and we've seen this blue Bowser Jr., so I dared to hope there was going to be a Blue Bowser, aka. Bowser's brother. But nope it didn't happen.
Thank you for the well-thought and in-depth comment! Your reasoning is also very solid. Here's to hoping Nintendo fleshes out some more Mario lore in the future, haha. :)
@@MetateraYT Thank you, I really appreciate it ^-^ And I doubt it will ever happen (unless I get to work at Nintendo someday and they let me create my dream Mario game) but yeah let's hope.
@@MetateraYT I dunno... You've seen the Mario vs DK remake. I was super excited for it. It's one of the games where Mario is the most talkative and expressive. It's still my favorite interpretation of the way Mario acts, talks, and emotes. But then they removed most of his lines and replaced them by reused voice clips for no reason in the remake. I doubt Nintendo can make a game where their characters are characterized correctly when they made one of Mario's best characterizations bland. Also they removed a good amount of difficulty by removing the score system but that's an entirely different problem.
@@Oceane1803 Hmm good point. I've never played the Mario vs DK games, but that's a shame they made the expressions more bland. Maybe they're in a transitional phase with Mario due to the new voice actor? Just a guess. I bet the next mainline Mario on Nintendo's next system will shine more personality on Mario. Here's to hoping, haha.
Yes, the island of misfit Mario characters! Lol - it'd be cool to see all of them come back. I thought Wart had a chance in Mario Wonder with the dream-aesthetic tbh
I really wished your Nintendo videos got as many views as your fnf videos because all your videos are amazing especially your Nintendo videos and I hope people start watching your non fnf videos as much as your fnf videos.
Thank you, your comment truly means a lot! It's very nice to hear that, and I'm glad you enjoy them. I'll keep making both, as that's what makes peeps happy. :)
