Trivia[edit]

  • In Rose Way, instead of Bowser announcing her ranks as the somewhat disparaging "groundling Goombas", he highlights her seductive charms in the Japanese version. In the original game, the English version makes it unclear why she responds to this description by making the screen flash a hot pink, as she was originally supposed to be demonstrating her feminine wiles. This is fixed in the remake, where Bowser's dialogue is rewritten to reflect the original Japanese version better (though the "groundling Goombas" quote is kept).
