I feel like Sakurai will replace Bowser's original blue color with Dark Bowser from Mario and Luigi 3.

It's not actually original; it's based off of his colors on the Japanese/European box art for Super Mario Bros. I wouldn't mind a Dark Bowser color, but it seems more likely they'd keep the current one; Mario RPGs have barely had any representation in Smash. In Brawl there was a few trophies, stickers, and a single music track.

Dark Bowser is a good start for a blue Bowser costume (IMO)


In addition, one of his new alts. reminds me of Morton Koopa, Jr.


Dry Bowser is still an expectation if alt. costumes are a reality.

I hope that alternate costumes are unlockable by doing certain objectives with that character.
On a side note though, how do you make spoiler boxes because I really don't know and I should.

I want to know so I don't just slap pictures on for everyone to see if they don't want to.

The relevance of this post just skyrocketed since blue Bowser wasn't even playable in the demo while red and green were present.

I do know that Bowser is now a confirmed Super Saiyan with one of his color choices.
I think it's his red costume but I'm not 100%.

Personally, the original green Bowser is my favorite.

I like what they did with his King Koopa color which was the one where he was green and on the blue team.

Dude your classic box art Bowser recolor is pretty kickass, and is so much better than mine too, so nice job on that! And out of the Koopaling recolors, the Iggy one looks the best. I really hope they put the former in the game. And Dry Bowser, of course.

I will be disappointed if his gold and silver costume doesn't return.

Not sure if you guys knew, but two new recolors for Bowser were confirmed at E3. Here they are:



For the first time in his Smash career, it appears Bowser is getting a green costume. I think it looks good.



This yellow/purple costume looks sick. If I decide to make Bowser one of my mains for Sm4sh, this may very well be the costume that I primarily use. That is, if Dark Bowser doesn't make the cut...

Actually, if you visit Smash Wiki (the NIWA version), it states that the green costume is based on his SMBSS design and his SMW Design, while the yellow one is based on his poisoned palette from SMRPG.

I thought the green one was based off of Super Mario World. It looks like the skin on his arms are green too. The spikes on his back sort of match too.



I wonder if he'll get something based on the other Koopalings. I think the Black and White suit was based on Morton if I'm not mistaken.

I came to this thread to bring you my favorite Bowser alt costume option. Armored Bowser from Yoshi's Safari.

i know this may not happen but the mario strikers bowser was pretty awesome

I actually like this idea too, but they'd probably end up removing the claws in favor of half-gloves or something since the metal claws on those gloves might clip through his wrists or something when he's throwing punches. Unless they could find a way to make it work with the claws on without there being a lot of obvious clipping; I wonder if they would use strikers costumes for anyone else.

I love the colors you use :)

My inspiration is that I just want Pink characters, haha.
We dont need anymore Bowser alts. Dry Bowser is cool and all, but we already have Super Sayien Bowser and he has Power. P.S. me want female Bowser.

Super Saiyan(Red)Bowser is damn good. If we don't get the Black and Gold Bowser, that one might be my main color.

So with Samus in shorts' inclusion, I think anything can be just as likely. --> Dry Bowser.

I want this one, Ludwig is my favorite!

They should have a yellow Bowser color with Ludwig's Super Mario World color scheme.

Seems like too simple of a costume. I mean, it looks like it'd be just bowser with a blue head.
