Everybody hates these guys now right?
>>341701276
All of them but Roy. Iggy is possible
No
Iggy my Niggy
>Cluttered Mario Kart 8's roster
>Got rid of Bowser Jr's chance to have pallet swaps to match his dad in Smash
Kinda
>>341701276
Not really. They are still better than Bowser Jr.
>>341701276
>People begged them to be back after Shiggy displayed clear disinterest in them.
>Now people are sick of them
>>341701276
yeah, because they were overused so much
They're taking up muh boss slots. Even Fighting Eggman in every fucking level in Sonic was more enjoyable than fighting these fags and their stupid shell spin attack.
They were brought back by fan demand because they thought Bowser Jr (who was meant to be a single-man replacement for all seven of them) was shit by comparison.
What the fans didn't realize however was how much they overrated their long-term appeal.
Enjoy seven boss/playable character slots always being consumed wherever applicable.
>>341701276
i loved them in super mario world. did nintendo ruin them in their new games? i havent played any nintendo shit since gamecube and nds.
>>341702467
>wanting pallet swaps over actual characters
what the fuck
>>341704665
It ruins the character, the Koopalings don't even ride the Jr Clown car or transform into Shadow Mario. A lot of them look ridiculous with their proportions. Get them out.
>>341704384
>>They were brought back by fan demand
Seriously? I can't imagine a single person actively rooting for all of the Koopalings to become mainstream, it feels so farfetched since they're all relatively uninteresting characters in a cast full of more memorable, commonly appearing ones.
Then again, this is Nintendo we're talking about, who put Spike, that generic enemy who throws logs, as a playable character in Mario Party.
If they were gonna throw away slots to enemies, at least give them to easily identifiable ones like Boo, Hammer Bro, ect. Even Nabbit is more acceptable.
As for the Koopalings, the issue is that you can't just get one. I like Roy and I think Iggy is his name, and if one or two got in MK8 or Smash, it'd be fine, but that's not the case.
>>341702467 put it pretty well, MK8's roster could've been flawless if we got any other 7 characters over them.
>>341701276
Koopa Kids are great, I'm glad they're back.
I don't mind them
Paper Jam handled their character's pretty well
I just worried I'm going to miss out on Paper King Boo in Color Splash but hopefully it doesn't
The game clearly has it's own mansion in one footage
>>341706891
The Koopa Kids are dead
>Koopalings are stuck following the same traits (Lemmy's Balls, Wendy's Rings, etc) and boss order every fucking game
>Boom Boom can easily be rehashed infinitely because of how braindead simple he is
>Bowser Jr is now 75% Jr Clown Car, 25% Spawn of Bowser especially after Smash made it his thing
>Bowser can't simply be Bowser and MUST grow Giant and chase you and/or block a switch
>Kamek is literally a Magikoopa that takes 3 hits to kill
>NSMBWii started this and it'll remain this way until Miyamoto dies
No, I want fuck them.
>>341701276
I love Roy.
>>341707191
>>Bowser can't simply be Bowser and MUST grow Giant and chase you and/or block a switch
In NSMBU you have to actually fight him on when he goes giant, instead of finding a switch.
>>341707174
You can call the Koopalings or whatever, they'll always be the Koopa Kids to me. Just like how I'll keep calling Eggman "Robotnik."
>>341707353
Which ones?
I still love 'em but I really wish they had more (or well, ACTUAL) character but it seems like under Miyamoto's watch that'll never happen.
Paper Jam was a step in the right direction at least.
>>341701276
I want Wendy tofellateme
>>341707505
Not the same anon but I want Morton to fuck me.
>>341707505

>>341707710
Good taste.
>>341707581
>>341707731
Not so good taste.
>>341707505
I'm bad at picking favorites.
>>341707191
>>Bowser can't simply be Bowser and MUST grow Giant and chase you and/or block a switch
Why is this a thing? His fights in SM64 were fine, his fight in Galaxy was fine. Then every fight is either him growing big or some shitty extended chase/bridge sequence.
And don't give that limited moveset crap. Hewas throwing Goombas and turning into a ball in BiS.
I'm not a huge fan of having all seven hogging roster slots but I prefer them over generic enemies like Kamek and Boo.
>>341707814
Hush you, Wendy is cutest princess.
>>341708163
You know as well as I do that even the artist of that pic likes Roy best.
Nope, like 'em all and they're more interesting than Bowju.
Larry and Roy are alright. The rest can fuck right off.

>tfw you will never be a chubby koopa kid who does gay things with his brothers and dad
>>341707874
>64 was fine
>Galaxy was fine
They were Repettive trash
3D World's Meowsee Chase scene was fun as fuck as a final boss, especially since you fight bowser normally anyway
Whereas 64 and Galaxy repeat the same fight 3 fucking times in a row
And I don't need to mention how trash Galaxy 2's final boss was
>>341706460
You have to understand that a lot of people grew up with them being in SMB3, World and the cartoon. Then other than superstar saga which was a spinoff game (and one in which they had a very, very small role) they just stopped being acknowledged. Then Sunshine comes out and establishes B Jr. as Bowsers only kid and everyone who grew up with the other characters are just left confused. Nowadays Mario lore is a joke but back then they hadn't really destroyed the canon as much, even if it was still often inconsistent. A lot of it was older fans felt ignored and sort of resented that, I think.
But yeah, they're overplayed now. I'd like a game without any of them or Bowser Jr.
No, I love the koopings. I hate how fucking badly they're being used.
SMB3, SMW, Yoshi's Safari - a step up from False Bowser after every world, all pretty well-characterized in design, comparably unique with a good sense of progression, very servicable for what they are.
NSMB series - keep them almost exactly as they are, but replace Boom Boom with them. Make NEW characters world bosses, the koopalings are mid-bosses.
MK8 - they were great additions, but between 2 metal recolors and 5 babies the roster was utter shit. Bring in fan favorites like Diddy and King Boo, secondary classics like Wart, Tatanga, Gadd, new characters like Plessie, maybe an RPG character or two (like Cackletta and Fawful) for effective fan service.
They're great in Paper Jam.
They'd be great in a Paper Mario game in the same style of Paper Mario 1. In Bowser's castle, you could optionally go into each one of their rooms, inspect it, and fight them.
Hell, put them in a 3D game- just not like they've been doing it. They work best as a team and a gauntlet, a unit to fight all at once or in quick succession. Like in Superstar Saga and their last part in Paper Jam, tighten up that concept and adapt it for a 3D game. It would be crazy fun.
But hey, Mario games in general are just tactless shit now, how trash the Koopalings are being used is a symptom, not a disease.
>>341701276
>implying
>>341701276
Only contrarian faggots, so /v/
>>341709057
Sigh.
Underage faggots who never played smb3 or smw are the only ones who don't like them.
Lemmy is best.
>>341705083
This, they don't deserve to be tied to Bowser Jr as weird deformed alts. Make the Koopalings their own character, draw from their moves in SMB3, SMW, YS, SSS. Their gimmick is that each alt has a different size and speed and such, but the moveset and animations are pretty much the same.
Or just make them Bowser's final smash, we all know he needs a new one.
>>341709085
I gotta agree with this, 3D World's final confrontation with Cat-Bowser was way more fun and intense than the Galaxy game boss fights. I loved the platforming challenge to the top, and seeing Bowser bust out powerups you had been using yourself.
>>341709248
>tackless
Are people still pretending that 3D World wasn't an experiment?
Your getting a brand new concept for the next 3D Mario just like how Galaxy was
PAPER MARIO
>>341709905
>>tackless
Who are you quoting?
>>341702467
Even though there's more Koopalings, I blame the babies in MK8 more than I do the Koopalings
Also, the Bowser Jr. alt complaint is stupid
>>341705083
A lot of characters in Smash don't look or act like they should, stop bitching. Jr having the Koopalings for alts makes up for Samus not having any of her actual Suits.
>>341709996
Anon no shit I meant to say tactless
>>341711042
You would not have made that mistake if you did not lack tack.
>>341706460
>Then again, this is Nintendo we're talking about, who put Spike, that generic enemy who throws logs, as a playable character in Mario Party.
Mario Party has a roster gimmick where a generic minion becomes playable for [x] installment. How new are you?
>>341711697
Not any more. Now it's Toads for the Toad god.
I hate bowser jr as a concept, as he kind of consolidates all koopalings into one main henchman. It's just too bad bowser jr is fucking annoying.
Also WHY DOES NITNENDO HATE FUN THEORIES. JUST LET US SAY THAT KOOPALINGS ARE BOWSER'S KIDS, AND THEIR MOTHER IS CLAWDIA, AND THAT CRANKEY KONG IS OG DONKEY KONG
>>341712212
*I like bowser jr as a concept
I liked them in Paper Jam
I hate them in everything else
>>341707490
And you'd still be right to call him Robotnik, dummy. At least in America.
His name was always Eggman in Japan, and it was localized as Robotnik. When they decided to merge the names, they compromised by having him take on Eggman as a nickname. So now, outside of Japan, his name is Ivo "Eggman" Robotnik, so both names can apply.
>>341701276
I love them desu, way better than that faggot Bowser jr.
>>341701276
I have always loved these guys. Super Mario World was the first Mario game I played. It was also the first and only time my mother ever played anything before she passed. Fuck Bowser Jr. And maybe Ludwig.
>>341712556
>>341712817
Literally poo taste.
>>341701276
Yeah
That's what happens when you turn into roster filler
>>341702726
No, people like Bowser Jr. much more than Koopalings now
Smash 4 (with the Koopalings as his alts no less), Mario Maker, Paper Jam, and the fact that he's not playable in Mario Kart 8 helped improve his reputation a lot, in addition to the Koopalings being regulars again
>>341709564
So everyone in existence, stupid?
Most people who played Mario 1 didn't like them
