 Artwork from Captain Rainbow | |
| Species | Human |
| First appearance | Golf (1984, Super Mario-related media) (retroactively) Captain Rainbow (2008) (as a unique character) |
Ossan is a golfer that Nick must help on Mimin Island in Captain Rainbow. Despite Mario being originally depicted as the golfer in Golf [1], Captain Rainbow depicts a very different character as the game's main playable character.
History
Golf
In Golf, Ossan is depicted as wearing a white cap, white shirt, and blue pants when played as by P1. When played as by P2, he is depicted with a red cap, red shirt, and black pants. He is the only playable golfer in this game.
Stroke & Match Golf
Stroke & Match Golf features Ossan as the sole playable golfer in the Japanese release and the US men's release. This version of Golf gives Ossan some new sprites and animations.
Captain Rainbow
In Captain Rainbow, Ossan is given a much more unique design that is very different from his Golf appearence. He holds his golf balls in his pants and constantly scratches at them, creating a visual gag that likens them to a scrotum. His problem that Nick must solve is that he has lost his golf club.[2] Nick can take on his problem to start a trading quest to find his golf club. Eventually, Nick can make a deal with the Devil from Devil World for Ossan's golf club. If Nick attacks Lip's Pirahna Plant, the Devil will be impressed with Nick's capacity for evil and give him the golf club in exchange for his evil deed. Nick can then give the golf club back to Ossan and the two can play golf together. If Nick scores over 1800 points in the golf minigame, Ossan will give Nick his "friendship bond" and the two will officially be friends.
