Bowser, Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)

Bowser's Minions, also known as the Koopa Troop,[1][2][3] the Koopa Clan,[4] the Minions,[5], Team Bowser,[6] and originally as the Turtle Empire,[7] 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 them and also often 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. With more elite troops of the organization being, for example, 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 still act under to Bowser, such as 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, while in other occasions, the control of the army was forcibly taken by someone else (such as King Olly in Paper Mario: The Origami King).

History

Super Mario series

The Letter found at the start of World 7 in Super Mario 3D Land
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, 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.

Koopa Pack
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 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 Bros, Boomerang Bros, and Paragoombas.

Yoshi franchise

Like in the mainline Super Mario platformers, Bowser's Minions appear as the main enemies in the Yoshi franchise and are 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 Bowser's Minions and help the baby brothers reunite with each other. 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

During Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, Bowser's Minions are taken over by the Smithy Gang when they invade Bowser's Keep via Exor. Over the course of the game, Bowser slowly loses the remainder of his Minions, with the Terrapin leader Jagger and Goomba leader Goomhilde defecting, while Magikoopa leader Wizakoopa is controlled by the Smithy Gang to defend Bowser's Castle. By the time Bowser is met at Booster Tower, there are no more remaining Minions by his side. He is then forced to become allies with Mario, Mallow, and Geno in order to regain his troops, although he claims they actually joined him and are now members of his army.

Bowser regains control of his troops after Smithy is defeated, and they go about repairing his castle.

Paper Mario series

Paper Mario

In Paper Mario, Bowser’s army is known as the Koopa Corps[8]. They take over the Mushroom Kingdom after Bowser steals the Star Rod and captures Princess Peach by lifting her castle from the ground. Throughout the game, Bowser’s army stand in Mario’s way by hiding each of the Star Spirits away. In Bowser's Castle and Princess Peach's Castle, they are primarily represented by Koopatrols, Hammer Bros., and blue Magikoopas, occasionally joined by others.

The Koopa Corps also hosts the 64th Trivia Quiz-Off in Peach’s Castle, an event presented by Mr. Hammer.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and its remake, they are known as the Koopa Clan[4] and They follow Bowser in his search of Princess Peach and the Crystal Stars in Rogueport and the areas surrounding it. The Koopa Clan first appears after Bowser summons them to confront the X-Nauts led by Lord Crump in Twilight Town. From this point onwards, the enemies such as Koopatrols and Hammer Bros. can be found in Rogueport Underground. Once again, the Koopa Clan is represented by Koopatrols, Hammer Bros., and blue Magikoopas.

Super Paper Mario

Bowser's minions reapper in Super Paper Mario, where they're first seen preparing to invade Peach's Castle, unaware that she had already been abducted. They are then captured by Count Bleck and taken to his castle, where they attend a sham wedding between Bowser and Princess Peach. This creates the Chaos Heart and afterwards, Count Bleck's assistant Nastasia brainwashes most of the minions, who then act as enemies for the entire game. Certain members also help Luigi and Peach escape from Castle Bleck and some continue to serve Bowser in the Bitlands, holding down an old fort.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star

In Paper Mario: Sticker Star, Bowser's Minions appear to crash the Sticker Fest, spectating as Bowser steals the Sticker Comet and subsequently splits it up into the Royal Stickers. They are present throughout the game following his orders, attempting to hinder Mario's progress.

Paper Mario: Color Splash

In Paper Mario: Color Splash, Bowser's Minions once again follow Bowser's orders as he invades Prism Island. During the game, they attempt to collect paint from Prism Island while guarding the Paint Stars. They continue to follow Bowser despite him being under the black paint's control later in the game, as he attempts to spread black paint over the world.

Paper Mario: The Origami King

Bowser's Minions return in Paper Mario: The Origami King, where most of them are folded by King Olly into Folded Soldiers, serving him. The remainder of the troops that managed to escape in Bowser's Castle are found working at Shangri-Spa, after Kamek accidentally crashed the castle into the facilities. After Mario rescues Bowser, the troops assist them in reaching Peach's Castle in order to defeat King Olly and rescue Princess Peach.

Mario & Luigi series

A Koopa Troopa from the Koopa Cruiser in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga.

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, a group of troops in the Bowser Baddies[9] 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.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

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.

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey

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

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

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

“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.

Structure

Recurring leaders

Bowser's Minions, as the name suggests, are primarily led by Bowser[5] himself, including as Baby Bowser (in the Yoshi franchise) and Dry Bowser, although the latter has also appeared separately as a boss in Mario Party: Island Tour. As Bowser's heir, Bowser Jr. also commands the Minions.[10] Directly below them are the seven Koopalings and Kamek, who acts as Bowser's adviser[11] and Bowser Jr.'s caretaker.[12] Both the Koopalings and Kamek are referred to as First officers in Bowser Jr.'s Journey, commanding other troops in the game.

Recurring bosses

Since Super Mario Bros. 3, various bosses have been associated with Bowser's army, often fought at the end of levels, or as area bosses in series such as the Paper Mario series or the Mario & Luigi series. The most common of those are Boom Booms. Other bosses are depicted as rulers of a certain group of enemies, while still working as Bowser's Minions. These include, for example, Petey Piranha and Piranha Plants, King Boo and Boos, and King Bob-omb and Bob-ombs.

Other characters shown to be in charge of groups of minions include Wizakoopa, Jagger and Goomhilde in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (and its remake), Kammy Koopa in Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (and its remake) and the Koopa General in The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

Recurring minions

The number of members in Bowser's army varies greatly between games, with many species appearing only a few times. However, there are a number of recurring minions who appear consistently throughout the franchise. These minions are often described as belonging to Bowser's army or can be found inside places directly controlled by it, such as Castles, Fortresses, Airships or similar structures.
