The shit he pulled at the end of Dream Team showed that he can make shit get real if he wants to. Just listen to that fucking battle theme.

If you found anything in that game "threatening", neck yourself

ebin post lad

Both of these themes are sick.

Imagine being this much of a faggot.

That sounds like some shit straight out of Kingdom Hearts.

Because it's the same composer.

No shit, Yoko did Dream Team? I'm gonna have to give it a play now.

Yoko's done all of the Mario and Luigi game's music, and Super Mario RPG as well.

Seriously? Why wasn't any of her Mario work featured on her Drammatica album? Nintendo license?

Probably. Getting the licence to Nintendo's stuff is probably expensive as fuck.

Bowser was only threatening in the first one. They've just been putting on a show since 3.

He was threatening in Bowsers inside story and Dream Team

Hilariously enough Mario RPG games tend to have great soundtracks that sound very out of place in a mario game.

He's pretty threatening in the intro to Galaxy. It's one of the few games where Peach being kidnapped actually feels like a big deal.

Bowsers a goofball and basically what Pete is to Mickey. Are you saying Miyamoto's infallible vision of canon is wrong?

Stoop inserting your edgy fanfiction into Mario Koizumi. That goes for you too Alphadream.

>Bowser and Mario highfiving
>this stickers released right before Odyssey

BOWSER PLAYABLE CONFIRMED

Her second album Memoria had two songs from SMRPG (Forest theme and ending theme).

I'd say he was pretty threatening in Galaxy
>raids the power source of a spaceship controlled by a being who is practically a god
>nearly destroys the entire universe and remakes it in his image
>even after his plans fail the universe is still destroyed and has to be remade by the aforementioned god

...

>Miyamoto's infallible vision of canon
I fucking hate that old Nip.

He was majorly threatening in Galaxy, I loved his portrayal there. He was a total badass.

He was also pretty threatening in Bowser's Inside Story, which was great because he was on your side. Punching fuckers to kingdom come as this 2 ton tank made out of spikes and fire felt awesome, and that's not even touching on the sections where you played as him in his giant form.

As others have mentioned, Galaxy and the more recent M&L games have made him threatening.
Ironically, the Paper Mario series was partially where his villain decay began.

Bowser betraying Antasma was 10/10

You guys are aware that it’s the goofy Bowser that Miyamoto hates right?

No, he hates talking bowser. Goofing is A-OK to Miyazaki.

I'd say it's not so much Bowser being goofy, it's just Bowser being too goofy to the point where he's no longer threatening by Mario series standards.
The dude took over an entire kingdom under Mario's nose, yet he attacks the heroes from his sweet new car (which he later pimps out) and later builds an amusement park in his image. And that's without mentioning Meowser.

>No, he hates talking Bowser
Which is why Bowser talked in 64, Sunshine, Galaxy, Galaxy 2 and numerous spinoff games? Including the Paper Mario games Miyamoto helped produce?

Goofy Bowser > Serious Bowser
