| I know this conversation is about a year old, but, Beecanoe, that kinda thing belongs on the forum,unless your saying that he ''is'' in more games, that we left out.And he was never called Dry Bone Bowser in any games, but it does make sense, because as Pseudo-dino said, Bowser is a Koopa, and this is a skeletal version of Bowser, thus meaning he is a skeletal Koopa, which is a Dry Bones. But his official name is Dry Bowser, so yes, it should be removed.--[[User:Smileymiley5001|Smileymiley5001]] 11:45, 27 February 2011 (EST)

| dry bowser is likely to appear in the next Super Smash Bros. no? User:Galaxymario99
| |
|
| |
| That is pure speculation and belongs on the forums (if you even use them. I don't). And no. He's not that major of a mario character and it is very unlikely that he will appear in any Smash Bros.[[File:Mr. L.jpg|25px]] [[User:Ultimate Mr. L|<span style="color:green">Ultimate Mr. L</span>]] ([[User talk:Ultimate Mr. L|<span style="color:black">Talk</span>]]) 20:34, 23 September 2016 (EDT)

| == Character Infobox Image ==
| |
|
| |
| I'm kind of wondering why Dry Bowser's CSS icon from ''Mario Kart Wii'' is being used, instead of his ''Mario Kart Wii'' artwork for the infobox. I know that Dry Bowser's artwork has him with his kart, but it's the only artwork choice we have. Anyway, I just want some answers, regarding this. {{User:M&SG/sig}} 23:08, 19 September 2011 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| I wonder that too. {{User:Mario & Luigi/sig}}
| |
| :We should probably change it to the artwork, even if the kart is there. It's still more descriptive than just a head-shot of him.{{unsigned|Marioguy1}}

| == Dry Bowser in Super Mario 3D Land ==
| |
|
| |
| Do we have a source that confirms he is going to appear? {{User:Tails777/sig}}
| |
|
| |
| Yes we do. There is a video on Youtube (which is now private) which shows the castle stage of the special world. He appears the boss there. He seems to fight the same way as the [[False Bowser]]s except that his flame is blue. I saw the video when it was still public and I can confirm that this is 100% true. Besides, the Source is in the Super Mario 3D Land page. (but it won't be of much use). [[User:MarioMaster720]]

| |
| == Dry Bowser form and character ==
| |
|
| |
| Similar to [[Metal Mario]] (there is [[Metal Mario|the form]] and [[Metal Mario|the character]], I think Dry Bowser is a form and a character : in New Super Mario Bros., it is shown that Bowser becomes Dry Bowser. However, in Mario Kart Wii, Bowser and Dry Bowser are two distinct characters who can be seen together. However, I'm not sure if we should split the article because of this fact, but... {{User:Banon/sig}} 15:51, 31 December 2012 (EST)
| |
| :I don't think there's enough distinctions to split these two. You can make a TPP about it if you're passionate. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
| |
| ::I think just like you, but maybe we could write somewhere in the article that there is a form and a character, maybe just in Trivia "Oddly enough, in NSBW Bowser becomes Dry Bowser, but in MKW, we can see that they are two distinct characters." or something like this. {{User:Banon/sig}} 16:44, 31 December 2012 (EST)
| |
| :Personally, I see Dry Bowser to Bowser like how Baby Mario is to Mario. Since at one time of his life, Bowser becomes Dry Bowser, so using some sort of time machine that Dry Bowser is able to travel to the present time during MKW and participate in races like the Babies probably would. Do you get what I mean? [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 18:12, 31 December 2012 (EST)
| |
| ::That is true and I get what you mean. But then, Dry Bowser is his own article. Wasn't it before that Dry Bowser was merged with Bowser or something and split off into this article due to him being separate? I find splitting off into Dry Bowser (character) is a little redundant. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
| |
| :::Miyamoto stated in an interview that the characters can have multiple personnalities, for example, Bowser keeps kidnapping Peach, but he can play football and karting with her. I think that's the same thing, it's not mainstream-canon. So, don't split. {{User:Banon/sig}} 20:11, 31 December 2012 (EST)
| |
| ::::Then again, according to that logic we should merge Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, others, and Metal Mario into their respective articles.{{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
| |
| :::::Maybe we should... The "Background" section could be bigger. {{User:Banon/sig}} 10:39, 1 January 2013 (EST)

| == Dry Bowser's Species ==
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Has someone changed Koopa to Dry Bones on species? {{unsigned|Joelmcallister}}
| |
| :Yes, but I think that makes more sense because like Bowser is a Koopa Troopa, the dead version of Bowser is the dead version of Koopa Troopas, a Dry Bones. [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 21:12, 25 March 2013 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Dry Bones is a character, not a species. Since Bowser is a Koopa and Dry Bowser is just a skeleton version of Bowser, then Dry Bowser should be a Koopa. Dry Bones himself is a Koopa. <s>Why don't we put Koopa/Dry Bones under the species section instead?</s> {{user|joelmcallister}}
| |
| :The thing is, what a Dry Bones is, is a dead Koopa. Now that he is a dead Koopa, he is a Dry Bones. Like, if someone died they might become a ghost, instead of being a human, so this is a similar idea in which as he is dead he becomes a Dry Bones. Like how a Paragoomba becomes a Goomba when it loses its wings. [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 20:49, 26 March 2013 (EDT)

| Dry bowser is creating in mario and sonic at the winter oylimipic games in hockey {{unsigned|Daisy 187}}
| |
|
| |
| The reason his species should be changed to Koopa, is so that people can understand his connection with major charactors like Koopa Troopa. That's all I have to say Jovester 🍔👢💎👔 14:31, 14 April 2014 (EDT)

| == Not Bowser ? ==
| |
|
| |
| I was watching videos of Mario Party Island Tour and something surprised me. Bowser himself says, and I quote, '' "Poor King Bob-Omb, up in smoke! What's next, [player] ? WHO ARE YOU ? Meh, whatever, the next guard (Dry Bowser) is '''a close family friend'''. BWAHAHA'' ". So, Dry Bowser is not just a skeleton version of Bowser, but also a separate character. Could Dry Bowser be considered a subspecies of Dry Bones ?
| |
| It seems this concept is also present in other games, like Mario Kart (both playable) and Mario & Sonic (Dry Bowser works for Bowser).
| |
|
| |
| Would this be worth mentioning in the page or trivia ? [[Special:Contributions/191.169.219.70|191.169.219.70]] 23:48, 10 August 2014 (EDT)

| :No, it feels like Bowser could've been making a joke. And I see it in the same manner that Baby characters show up alongside their adults. [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 01:43, 11 August 2014 (EDT)

| ::In the PAL, all he says is stuff about drinking milk. I think Dry Bowser may be treated completely separate, like a parallel Bowser for the Dry Bones. We don't really know. - {{User:Ninelevendo/sig}} 02:01, 11 August 2014 (EDT)
| |
| :::It seems there were some differences in the translations of Mario Party Island Tour. Anyone knows what the japanese version or manuals say after King Bob-omb's defeat ? That's where Dry Bowser is mentioned [[Special:Contributions/191.131.198.87|191.131.198.87]] 13:19, 15 August 2014 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| ::::I would say his appearances in the mainstream games, notably [[New Super Mario Bros]], should take precedence over something like Mario Party. Mario Party is not developed directly by Nintendo, and a mistake in the story concept is bound to happen. Considering this, I do not believe that a sarcastic sounding comment from Bowser is worth changing an article over. {{User:DrBogus}}

| == Add Information for Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition ==
| |
|
| |
| From what I've seen on the article as of May 13th, 2015 at approximately 5:55 PM, I haven't seen any info from Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition at all. Can someone please add the article from the Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition game? It be a great help if you did!
| |
|
| |
| P.S. Remember to do the same to the Bowser article. I haven't seen Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition info on there yet also!

| ==Dry Bonehead Bowser/Bone Bowser==
| |
| We call him a Dry Bones currently, but as it stands, all other "Dry Bones" are skeletal ''Troopas'', which Bowser is not---although Dry Bowser does have quite the beak. We don't count, for instance, [[Bony Beetle]] as a Dry Bones, even though it's a skeletal Koopa as well. Another thing is, the Japanese name makes no allusion to Dry Bones, simply being "Hone Koopa," while Dry Bones is "Karon." It is admittedly similar to [[Dull Bones]]'s name, Honenoko, but only marginally and that's an almost ''certain'' coincidence, especially since they're structured differently. My point? For all intents and purposes, Dry Bowser is not a Dry Bones. He is no more a Dry Bones than [[Bone Piranha Plant]], [[Bony Beetle]], [[Bone Dragon]], or [[Zombone]].

| :True. Perhaps we should rename it to "Skeletal [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]]". [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 23:52, 16 November 2017 (EST)
| |
| :Effectively, as the page for Dull Bones reminds us, ''hone'' (「骨」) simply means "bone" in Japanese, hence Dull Bones being called ''Honenoko'' (''Bone Koopa Troopa''), Bony Beetle being called ''Honemetto'' (''Bone Buzzy Beetle''), the Bone Piranha Plant being called ''Honepakkun'' (''Bone Piranha''), [[Bone Goomba]] being called ''Honekuribo'' (''Bone Goomba'') and well, Dry Bowser being called ''Hone Koopa'' (''Bone Bowser''). Since the other bone version of the enemies weren't called in Japanese with a name related to ''Karon'' I guess the relationship is more that of Dry Bones being possibly a source of inspiration, rather than being the same species.--[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 08:53, 17 November 2017 (EST)

| == Quote change ==
| |
|
| |
| An idea for a good quote for the top of the page that I have: "I feel dry... How does my skeleton look" from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey. I know this is one of those instances where Bowser turns into Dry Bowser, but I still think it's more fitting than the current quote used. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}} 20:47, July 21, 2021 (EDT)

| Are you sure Dry Bowser isn't a Dry Bones because the Koopa Species become Dry Bones when thier dead. Just think about what I said. [[Special:Contributions/94.9.174.199|94.9.174.199]] 10:36, July 13, 2024 (EDT)
