It is an organization of armed forces led by [[Bowser]]. The Minions repeatedly try to conquer the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and sometimes other areas, with their goals based mainly on Bowser's own interests. Not all members of the Minions are [[Koopa (species)|Koopas]], although they serve as the majority of the members and also have high-ranking roles. According to official character books, the army is led by the Turtle Tribe, with older material indicating the members of Bowser's "royal family" as leaders. In both ''Super Mario Pia'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia|Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.]]'', the "royal family" term is missing, and in general, the organization of Bowser's army is no longer explained, with the former reconfirming that the Turtle Tribe still leads it. As shown in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]]'', and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', when Bowser is absent, [[Bowser Jr.]] takes leadership of the Minions. It is also implied in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'' that Bowser Jr. has his own army within the Minions. | |||
The Koopa forces differ between appearances, though [[Goomba]]s and [[Koopa Troopa]]s consistently appear as the most common and basic troops. There are also many rarer minion types of the Minions, including seemingly elite troops of the organization, such as [[Hammer Bro]]s and [[Magikoopa]]s. Aside from Bowser and Bowser Jr., other notable members have been shown to hold positions of authority and leadership within the organization's hierarchy. The most prominent examples include the [[Koopalings]] (particularly common in the case of the 2D platformers) and [[Kamek]] (especially in the case of the ''Yoshi'' franchise). There is also a trend of species-specific monarchs/chiefs within the Minions who seemingly act as vassals to Bowser, implying a degree of autonomy and sub-hierarchy on a species-level basis; examples of this include [[Goomboss]], [[King Boo]], [[King Bob-omb]], [[Whomp King]], and [[Petey Piranha]]. | |||
On some occasions, Bowser has teamed up with others (such as [[Antasma]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'') to achieve a common goal, but in these instances, these characters are not considered part of the Minions. | |||
==History== | |||
===''Super Mario'' series=== | |||
[[File:SM3DL W7.png|thumb|300px|Bowser and his minions in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'']] | |||
Bowser's Minions are most well known as the main antagonistic group in the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]], invading various kingdoms under the command of [[Bowser]]. They generally compose the bulk of the enemies that [[Mario]] must defeat, although it is often left unclear if an enemy is part of Bowser's Minions or local to the invaded kingdom, if not both. | |||
[[ | Most commonly, Bowser's Minions have invaded the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'', ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[Super Mario Run]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''. Other places invaded by Bowser's Minions include the [[Mushroom World]] (in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''), Dinosaur Land (in ''[[Super Mario World]]''), [[Isle Delfino (in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''), various [[Galaxy|Galaxies]] across the universe (in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''), the [[Sprixie Kingdom]] (in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''), various kingdoms cross the [[Earth]] (in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''), [[Lake Lapcat]] (in ''[[Bowser's Fury]]'') and the [[Flower Kingdom]] (in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]''). | ||
''Super Mario Bros.'', ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'' and ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' predate the use of "Bowser's Minions" as the term referring to the enemies present in these games, instead using "[[Koopa (species)|Turtle Tribe or Turtle Empire]]" to fill the same role. | |||
In ''Super Mario Run'', one of the [[Bonus ? Block#Super Bonus Game events|Weekend Spotlights]] in the Remix 10 mode focuses on Bowser's Minions, with the Super Bonus Game exclusively offering statues of species that are part of Bowser's Minions during these periods. | |||

[[File:Koopa Pack.jpg|thumb|150px|left|The Koopa Pack in "[[Raiders of the Lost Mushroom]]"]] | |||
In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', the enemies under the command of King Koopa are often referred to as the '''Koopa Pack''', although it seems to be used interchangeably between generic minions of King Koopa and a core group consisting of King Koopa, [[Mouser]], [[Tryclyde]], and a single Koopa Troopa. On one occasion, they also went by '''Koopa Troopers''' and '''Team Koopa'''. In the show, all of the members (except for King Koopa) are somewhat unintelligent. In "[[Raiders of the Lost Mushroom]]," Mouser, Tryclyde, and Koopa Troopa said that stealing is wrong, which made King Koopa (or [[King Koopa's alter egos#Kolonel von Koop|Kolonel von Koop]] as he was called) angrily hit them with a whip and say that bad guys are supposed to steal. | |||
====''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''==== | |||
In ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Bowser's Minions appear as recurring characters, the most frequent being the [[Sledge Bro]]s, [[Boomerang Bro]]s, and [[Paragoomba]]s. | |||
===''Yoshi'' franchise=== | |||
Like in the mainline ''Super Mario'' platformers, the troop appears as the main enemies in the [[Yoshi (franchise)|''Yoshi'' franchise]] and is led by [[Baby Bowser]], who is cared for by [[Kamek]]. Kamek sends his [[Toady|Toad]]ies to steal [[Baby Mario]] or the other babies from [[Yoshi]] and the other [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s as they adventure through [[Yoshi's Island (location)|Yoshi's Island]] to save [[Baby Luigi]], and the [[stork]] from the troop and help the baby brothers reunite with each other. The Yoshis also need to get them to their parents' house and help the stork in his baby delivering duties. The Yoshis and Yoshi himself defeated the troop through the use of eggs, while also jumping and ground-pounding on them. The composition of the troop follows somewhat different trends in the ''Yoshi'' franchise than the mainline ''Super Mario'' platformers. For example, [[Shy Guy]]s appear as the most commonly encountered and basic enemy in the Koopa Troop instead of Goombas and Koopa Troopas. | |||
===''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''=== | |||
During ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Keep]] is invaded by the [[Smithy Gang]] via [[Exor]]. By the time Bowser is met at [[Booster Tower]], there are no more remaining Minions by his side. He claims that [[Mario]], [[Mallow]], and [[Geno]] are active members when he joins the party (although it is heavily implied that he did this so he can avoid the humiliation of having to ask for their help). | |||
===''Paper Mario'' series=== | |||
Bowser's Minions play varying roles in the ''Paper Mario'' franchise. In particular, during the events of the first game, Bowser dispatched them to halt Mario's attempts at restoring the Star Spirits. Aside from this, they also engaged in some side-activities such as holding a [[64th Trivia Quiz-Off|game show]], where they are referred to as ''Koopa Corps'', with Peach acting as a contestant, and one [[Spiked Goomba]] even managed to use the castle armory as a makeshift shop for Mario and his party. In [[Bowser's Castle]] and [[Princess Peach's Castle]], they are primarily represented by [[Koopatrol]]s, [[Hammer Bro]]s., and blue [[Magikoopa]]s, occasionally joined by others. | |||
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', they are known as the ''Koopa Clan''. Bowser summons them to confront the X-Nauts led by [[Lord Crump]] in [[Twilight Town]], as the latter was trying to find the [[Superbombomb]]. This quickly turned largely to fighting over the [[Crystal Star]]s, however, with the conflict ending abruptly soon after; when the Superbombomb failed to detonate upon hitting Bowser, he then unleashed a plume of flame breath that inadvertently set it off and wiped out both sides. From this point onwards, the Koopa soldiers can be found in [[Rogueport Underground]], attempting to excavate the area for Crystal Stars. Once again, they are represented by Koopatrols, Hammer Bros., and blue Magikoopas. | |||
In ''Super Paper Mario'', Bowser gives a morale-raising speech as part of preparations to invade Peach's castle, completely unaware that she had already been abducted by an unknown third party until the Mario Bros. confront and accuse him of kidnapping her. However, neither he nor the rest of the troop could act on this information before the one responsible for her abduction, [[Count Bleck]], proceeded to capture them as well as Luigi. Bowser's minions later attended a "wedding" helmed by Count Bleck and his majordomo [[Nastasia]], with Bowser eagerly wishing to marry Peach, while Peach was forced via hypnosis on Nastasia's part to accept the proposal. However, this turned out to have been done in order for Bleck to create the [[Chaos Heart]] to wipe out all existence due to grief. A [[Hammer Bro]] captain and [[Koopa Troopa]] named Private Koopa attempted to aid Peach in escaping while two Goombas (one named Gary) coerced Luigi into helping them escape; however, Nastasia thwarted the escape attempts by brainwashing the captain, Private, and Gary, while the other Goomba cowardly defected to her side. Although Peach ended up escaping due to [[Dimentio|unknown factors]], Luigi was successfully brainwashed into becoming [[Mr. L]] by Nastasia. Bowser and presumably any remaining minions who hadn't been brainwashed by Nastasia were then dispatched to [[The Bitlands]], where they had a brief run-in with Mario and the escaped Peach. After being defeated in a brawl by his nemesis, Bowser agreed to aid Mario in stopping Count Bleck (as his plan of destroying all existence would obviously prevent any chance at Bowser conquering the world); he then had his minions hold down the fort, although it was implied that they intended to use Bowser's departure to hold a party in his absence. | |||
In ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', Bowser's Minions follow Bowser's orders, despite him being under the [[black paint]]'s control in the latter game. However, the troops form a truce with Mario during ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', due to [[King Olly]]'s plans threatening them both. | |||
===''Mario & Luigi'' series=== | |||
[[File:MLSS Bowser Baddie Sprite.png|frame|left]] | |||
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', a [[Koopa Cruiser crew|group]] of troops in the '''Bowser Baddies''' man the [[Koopa Cruiser]]. Bowser mistakes [[Luigi]] as an eager recruit, and takes him along Mario's quest to reclaim Princess Peach's voice from the [[Beanbean Kingdom]], but the Baddies and their King are swiftly dealt with by [[Cackletta]] and [[Fawful]]. After [[Bowletta|Cackletta possesses Bowser's body]], she takes control of his castle and the Koopa Troop to destroy the Beanbean Kingdom, but the Mario Bros. stop her. The [[Nintendo 3DS]] remake of the game, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', adds a story mode that focuses exclusively on Bowser's troops. In it, they are dubbed '''Bowser's Minions''' in the English localization, despite the original references to the "Bowser Baddies" remaining. During this story mode, the troops, led by [[Captain Goomba (Mario & Luigi series)|Captain Goomba]], set out to reunite and recruit all the troop members, and eventually rescue Bowser. The remake also shows that Bowletta duped the Koopa Troop, including the [[Koopalings]], into fighting for her and impeding the Mario Bros. by faking Bowser's return. | |||
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', the crew of the Koopa Cruiser make a second appearance, albeit in the past, as Baby Bowser has the Cruiser pick up the adult and baby Mario brothers after their initial loss to the [[Shroob]]s. | |||
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', Bowser's Minions are shown to be split into different divisions (the Goomba unit, the [[Shy Guy]] unit, the Koopa unit, the [[Bob-omb]] unit and the Magikoopa unit), similarly to their appearance in ''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars'', as evidenced when Fawful shows Bowser his captured soldiers. As Bowser rescues his soldiers, he is able to use them as [[Brawl Attack]]s, for example, [[Shy Guy Squad|using a squadron of Shy Guys to sling Bowser forward to the enemy]]. The [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|remake]] of this game once again features a story mode where the minions are controlled, this time led by [[Bowser Jr.]], who sets out to cure the Minions of their own case of the [[blorbs]] in Bowser's absence. | |||
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''=== | |||
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Bowser's Minions form part of the [[Subspace Army]], commanded by Bowser, [[Ganondorf]], and [[Wario]]. Although the group is led by [[Master Hand]], it is later revealed that he is being used by [[Tabuu]] in order to trick the three commanders into enveloping the [[World of Trophies]] into [[Subspace (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Subspace]]. | |||
===''Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition''=== | |||
In ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]'', some members of Bowser's Minions, especially those accidentally trapped inside [[Baddie Block]]s, fight alongside Mario and Luigi to stop Bowser from abusing the power of the [[Orb (Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition)|Orbs]]. | |||
===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''=== | |||
{{quote|My army! [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]]s! [[Goomba]]s! Whatever [[Spiny|those things]] are!|Bowser|The Super Mario Bros. Movie}} | |||
[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie#Bowser's army|Bowser's army]] plays a prominent role in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', starting with their invasion of the [[Snow Kingdom (The Super Mario Bros. Movie)|Snow Kingdom]], and obtaining the Super Star in its castle. The army is led by the [[Koopa General]], taking orders from Bowser, with [[Kamek]] serving as his adviser. | |||

This is our finest moment! Bowser's Minions are invincible! We shall be victorious! The bridge is down, but we'll find a way to get back in! Move out, on the double!”
- —Bowser, Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)
Bowser's Minions, also known as the Koopa Clan,[1][2] the Koopa Troop,[3][4] the Minions,[5] Bowser Baddies,[6] the Koopa Corps,[7] Bowser's army,[8] Team Bowser,[9] or the Turtle Empire,[10] is the primary antagonistic force of the Super Mario franchise. It is an organization of armed forces led by Bowser. The Minions repeatedly try to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom and sometimes other areas, with their goals based mainly on Bowser's own interests. Not all members of the Minions are Koopas, although they serve as the majority of the members and also have high-ranking roles. According to official character books, the army is led by the Turtle Tribe, with older material indicating the members of Bowser's "royal family" as leaders. In both Super Mario Pia and Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros., the "royal family" term is missing, and in general, the organization of Bowser's army is no longer explained, with the former reconfirming that the Turtle Tribe still leads it. As shown in New Super Mario Bros., Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, and Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, when Bowser is absent, Bowser Jr. takes leadership of the Minions. It is also implied in Paper Mario: The Origami King that Bowser Jr. has his own army within the Minions.
The Koopa forces differ between appearances, though Goombas and Koopa Troopas consistently appear as the most common and basic troops. There are also many rarer minion types of the Minions, including seemingly elite troops of the organization, such as Hammer Bros and Magikoopas. Aside from Bowser and Bowser Jr., other notable members have been shown to hold positions of authority and leadership within the organization's hierarchy. The most prominent examples include the Koopalings (particularly common in the case of the 2D platformers) and Kamek (especially in the case of the Yoshi franchise). There is also a trend of species-specific monarchs/chiefs within the Minions who seemingly act as vassals to Bowser, implying a degree of autonomy and sub-hierarchy on a species-level basis; examples of this include Goomboss, King Boo, King Bob-omb, Whomp King, and Petey Piranha.
On some occasions, Bowser has teamed up with others (such as Antasma in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team) to achieve a common goal, but in these instances, these characters are not considered part of the Minions.
History[edit]
Super Mario series[edit]
Bowser's Minions are most well known as the main antagonistic group in the Super Mario series, invading various kingdoms under the command of Bowser. They generally compose the bulk of the enemies that Mario must defeat, although it is often left unclear if an enemy is part of Bowser's Minions or local to the invaded kingdom, if not both.
Most commonly, Bowser's Minions have invaded the Mushroom Kingdom in Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, Super Mario 64, New Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Galaxy, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario 3D Land, New Super Mario Bros. 2, New Super Mario Bros. U, Super Mario Run and Super Mario Odyssey. Other places invaded by Bowser's Minions include the Mushroom World (in Super Mario Bros. 3), Dinosaur Land (in Super Mario World), [[Isle Delfino (in Super Mario Sunshine), various Galaxies across the universe (in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2), the Sprixie Kingdom (in Super Mario 3D World), various kingdoms cross the Earth (in Super Mario Odyssey), Lake Lapcat (in Bowser's Fury) and the Flower Kingdom (in Super Mario Bros. Wonder).
Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels and Super Mario Bros. 3 predate the use of "Bowser's Minions" as the term referring to the enemies present in these games, instead using "Turtle Tribe or Turtle Empire" to fill the same role.
In Super Mario Run, one of the Weekend Spotlights in the Remix 10 mode focuses on Bowser's Minions, with the Super Bonus Game exclusively offering statues of species that are part of Bowser's Minions during these periods.
DIC cartoons[edit]
The Super Mario Bros. Super Show![edit]
In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, the enemies under the command of King Koopa are often referred to as the Koopa Pack, although it seems to be used interchangeably between generic minions of King Koopa and a core group consisting of King Koopa, Mouser, Tryclyde, and a single Koopa Troopa. On one occasion, they also went by Koopa Troopers and Team Koopa. In the show, all of the members (except for King Koopa) are somewhat unintelligent. In "Raiders of the Lost Mushroom," Mouser, Tryclyde, and Koopa Troopa said that stealing is wrong, which made King Koopa (or Kolonel von Koop as he was called) angrily hit them with a whip and say that bad guys are supposed to steal.
The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3[edit]
In The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, Bowser's Minions appear as recurring characters, the most frequent being the Sledge Bros, Boomerang Bros, and Paragoombas.
Yoshi franchise[edit]
Like in the mainline Super Mario platformers, the troop appears as the main enemies in the Yoshi franchise and is led by Baby Bowser, who is cared for by Kamek. Kamek sends his Toadies to steal Baby Mario or the other babies from Yoshi and the other Yoshis as they adventure through Yoshi's Island to save Baby Luigi, and the stork from the troop and help the baby brothers reunite with each other. The Yoshis also need to get them to their parents' house and help the stork in his baby delivering duties. The Yoshis and Yoshi himself defeated the troop through the use of eggs, while also jumping and ground-pounding on them. The composition of the troop follows somewhat different trends in the Yoshi franchise than the mainline Super Mario platformers. For example, Shy Guys appear as the most commonly encountered and basic enemy in the Koopa Troop instead of Goombas and Koopa Troopas.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars[edit]
During Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Bowser's Keep is invaded by the Smithy Gang via Exor. By the time Bowser is met at Booster Tower, there are no more remaining Minions by his side. He claims that Mario, Mallow, and Geno are active members when he joins the party (although it is heavily implied that he did this so he can avoid the humiliation of having to ask for their help).
Paper Mario series[edit]
Bowser's Minions play varying roles in the Paper Mario franchise. In particular, during the events of the first game, Bowser dispatched them to halt Mario's attempts at restoring the Star Spirits. Aside from this, they also engaged in some side-activities such as holding a game show, where they are referred to as Koopa Corps, with Peach acting as a contestant, and one Spiked Goomba even managed to use the castle armory as a makeshift shop for Mario and his party. In Bowser's Castle and Princess Peach's Castle, they are primarily represented by Koopatrols, Hammer Bros., and blue Magikoopas, occasionally joined by others.
In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, they are known as the Koopa Clan. Bowser summons them to confront the X-Nauts led by Lord Crump in Twilight Town, as the latter was trying to find the Superbombomb. This quickly turned largely to fighting over the Crystal Stars, however, with the conflict ending abruptly soon after; when the Superbombomb failed to detonate upon hitting Bowser, he then unleashed a plume of flame breath that inadvertently set it off and wiped out both sides. From this point onwards, the Koopa soldiers can be found in Rogueport Underground, attempting to excavate the area for Crystal Stars. Once again, they are represented by Koopatrols, Hammer Bros., and blue Magikoopas.
In Super Paper Mario, Bowser gives a morale-raising speech as part of preparations to invade Peach's castle, completely unaware that she had already been abducted by an unknown third party until the Mario Bros. confront and accuse him of kidnapping her. However, neither he nor the rest of the troop could act on this information before the one responsible for her abduction, Count Bleck, proceeded to capture them as well as Luigi. Bowser's minions later attended a "wedding" helmed by Count Bleck and his majordomo Nastasia, with Bowser eagerly wishing to marry Peach, while Peach was forced via hypnosis on Nastasia's part to accept the proposal. However, this turned out to have been done in order for Bleck to create the Chaos Heart to wipe out all existence due to grief. A Hammer Bro captain and Koopa Troopa named Private Koopa attempted to aid Peach in escaping while two Goombas (one named Gary) coerced Luigi into helping them escape; however, Nastasia thwarted the escape attempts by brainwashing the captain, Private, and Gary, while the other Goomba cowardly defected to her side. Although Peach ended up escaping due to unknown factors, Luigi was successfully brainwashed into becoming Mr. L by Nastasia. Bowser and presumably any remaining minions who hadn't been brainwashed by Nastasia were then dispatched to The Bitlands, where they had a brief run-in with Mario and the escaped Peach. After being defeated in a brawl by his nemesis, Bowser agreed to aid Mario in stopping Count Bleck (as his plan of destroying all existence would obviously prevent any chance at Bowser conquering the world); he then had his minions hold down the fort, although it was implied that they intended to use Bowser's departure to hold a party in his absence.
In Paper Mario: Sticker Star and Paper Mario: Color Splash, Bowser's Minions follow Bowser's orders, despite him being under the black paint's control in the latter game. However, the troops form a truce with Mario during Paper Mario: The Origami King, due to King Olly's plans threatening them both.
Mario & Luigi series[edit]
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, a group of troops in the Bowser Baddies man the Koopa Cruiser. Bowser mistakes Luigi as an eager recruit, and takes him along Mario's quest to reclaim Princess Peach's voice from the Beanbean Kingdom, but the Baddies and their King are swiftly dealt with by Cackletta and Fawful. After Cackletta possesses Bowser's body, she takes control of his castle and the Koopa Troop to destroy the Beanbean Kingdom, but the Mario Bros. stop her. The Nintendo 3DS remake of the game, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, adds a story mode that focuses exclusively on Bowser's troops. In it, they are dubbed Bowser's Minions in the English localization, despite the original references to the "Bowser Baddies" remaining. During this story mode, the troops, led by Captain Goomba, set out to reunite and recruit all the troop members, and eventually rescue Bowser. The remake also shows that Bowletta duped the Koopa Troop, including the Koopalings, into fighting for her and impeding the Mario Bros. by faking Bowser's return.
In Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, the crew of the Koopa Cruiser make a second appearance, albeit in the past, as Baby Bowser has the Cruiser pick up the adult and baby Mario brothers after their initial loss to the Shroobs.
In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Bowser's Minions are shown to be split into different divisions (the Goomba unit, the Shy Guy unit, the Koopa unit, the Bob-omb unit and the Magikoopa unit), similarly to their appearance in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, as evidenced when Fawful shows Bowser his captured soldiers. As Bowser rescues his soldiers, he is able to use them as Brawl Attacks, for example, using a squadron of Shy Guys to sling Bowser forward to the enemy. The remake of this game once again features a story mode where the minions are controlled, this time led by Bowser Jr., who sets out to cure the Minions of their own case of the blorbs in Bowser's absence.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Bowser's Minions form part of the Subspace Army, commanded by Bowser, Ganondorf, and Wario. Although the group is led by Master Hand, it is later revealed that he is being used by Tabuu in order to trick the three commanders into enveloping the World of Trophies into Subspace.
Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition[edit]
In Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition, some members of Bowser's Minions, especially those accidentally trapped inside Baddie Blocks, fight alongside Mario and Luigi to stop Bowser from abusing the power of the Orbs.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie[edit]
- “My army! Koopas! Goombas! Whatever those things are!”
- —Bowser, The Super Mario Bros. Movie
Bowser's army plays a prominent role in The Super Mario Bros. Movie, starting with their invasion of the Snow Kingdom, and obtaining the Super Star in its castle. The army is led by the Koopa General, taking orders from Bowser, with Kamek serving as his adviser.
