| | The '''Bowser Suit''' (sometimes '''Bowser Mushroom''' in ''[[Mario Party 4]]'') is a somewhat rare item that first appears in ''[[Mario Party 2]]''. When used, the character who used it will wear a [[Bowser]] costume and be able to take twenty [[coin]]s from every opponent he or she passes during their roll. A [[Koopa Kid|Koopa Kid]] may even give a character dressed in a Bowser Suit coins as well. |

| The '''Bowser Suit''' is a recurring item in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. It is a full-body suit that resembles [[Bowser]] and allows the character who wears it to take on some of his traits, leaving only the character's head visible.

| ==History==
| | [[Image:MP3_BowserSuit.gif|frame|left]] |
| ===''Mario Party''===
| | In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', Bowser Suits can sometimes be purchased from Baby Bowser at the [[Item Shop]]s. |
| While not a usable item in ''[[Mario Party]]'', the single player is dressed in a Bowser Suit in the 1-vs.-3 [[minigame]]s [[Bash 'n' Cash]] and [[Tug o' War]]. In the former, the player in the Bowser Suit must avoid the other players' [[hammer]] strikes, while in the latter, it grants the player increased strength in the tug o' war match.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===''Mario Party 2''===
| | In ''Mario Party 4'', players can only acquire a Bowser Suit by landing on a [[Bowser Space]] and even then, the chances of getting one are slim to none. [[Waluigi]] is even pictured holding it on the box art of ''Mario Party 4''. In that game it strongly resembles a [[Mushroom]], giving it the nickname Bowser Mushroom. Here, only one change in effect is made. If the player in it passes anyone, 30 coins are stolen. |
| The Bowser Suit becomes a usable item in ''[[Mario Party 2]]''. It is somewhat rare, as it can only be won in Item Minigames and is not available in [[Item Shop (Mario Party series)|Item Shops]]. When used, the player will don a Bowser Suit in a flash of light and, for that turn only, may steal 20 [[Coin]]s from any player they pass, due to other players mistaking them for Bowser. If the player passes [[Koopa Kid|Baby Bowser]] during their turn, he will give them all the Coins he has collected from players throughout the current game, again mistaking them for Bowser. Other characters on the board sometimes have reactions to the Bowser Suit, but it does not affect their gameplay functions. The solo player also wears the Bowser Suit in the 1-vs.-3 minigame [[Quicksand Cache]].
| |
|
| |
|
| ===''Mario Party 3''===
| | The Bowser Suit reappears in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' when a player uses the [[Bowser Candy]], this time letting the character to hit two dice and being able to steal two [[Power Star|Star]]s from everyone the player passes. It only appears in [[Bowser's Warped Orbit]]. |
| In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', the Bowser Suit reappears as a usable item with the same effects as in the previous game. It can now be purchased for 10 Coins from Baby Bowser at Item Shops, in addition to appearing in Item Minigames. Additionally, players can occasionally receive a Bowser Suit from Bowser himself after landing on a [[Bowser Space]] during the Bowser Suit Giveaway event.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party 4''===
| |
| In ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', the Bowser Suit is once again a usable item. It is now very rare, as it can only be obtained during the Bowser Suit event on a Bowser Space, which has been made much more uncommon. The item's appearance has changed, now resembling a Bowser-like [[Mushroom]] instead of a mask-like object resembling Bowser's face as in previous games. The item now transforms into the suit which falls onto the player, and its effects are slightly different: the player now body-slams any opponents they pass to steal 30 Coins each from them, and additionally no longer visits most board events. This brings the item's effects more in line with the [[Mega Mushroom]] also introduced in ''Mario Party 4''. It also has two board-specific effects: on [[Koopa's Seaside Soiree]], the player can choose a direction manually at [[Ukiki]]'s [[Banana Peel]] Junction, as the game states that "Bowser doesn't slip on banana peels". Additionally, if the player passes Bowser on [[Bowser's Gnarly Party]], he will note that the player looks just like him and gives them 50 Coins. CPU players never use Bowser Suits after obtaining them.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party 5'' / ''Mario Party 6''===
| |
| While the Bowser Suit does not appear in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', the [[Bullet Bill Orb]] provides a similar function.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party 8''===
| |
| The Bowser Suit reappears in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' when a player uses the [[Bowser Candy]], this time allowing the player to hit two [[Dice Block]]s and granting the ability to steal two [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]]s from anyone they pass. It only appears in [[Bowser's Warped Orbit]]. Visually, the suit now includes its own head that goes on top of the player's. | |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party: The Top 100''===
| |
| In ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', the Bowser Suit returns in Tug o' War, but now has the wearer's head coming out of the suit's mouth. It also appears as a usable item in the Minigame Match mode, retaining its functionality from ''Mario Party 8''.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Party Superstars''===
| |
| The Bowser Suit reappears in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'' in the Tug o' War and Quicksand Cache minigames, behaving the same as in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'' and ''Mario Party 2'' respectively.
