TV Koopalings


A brand new season with a brand new Mario game having been released in the interim, the Super Mario Bros. Super Show! saw a rebranding as The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, and an upheaval in the regular story formula. Now, Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Toad tended to stay in one general location, the doorways between the Mushroom Kingdom and the real world had apparently been blown wide open, allowing the heroes to pass back and forth as they pleased, and King Koopa was now accompanied by an adaptation of his seven Koopaling children.

These Koopalings, renamed, and sometimes redesigned, as Kooky, Bully, Kootie Pie, Cheatsy, Big Mouth, and the twins Hip and Hop, differ from their game counterparts here and there in terms of personality and design, but they still fill the basic role of King Koopa’s main henchmen who help him carry out his schemes.

In game, just like their video game counterparts, they will act as different color swaps of each other, possibly with different stat levels depending on the individual. Rather than the moves of their game boss battles, their moves will pull from the various hare-brained schemes they pull in different episodes.

Likelihood rating: Non-game
