In contrast, Bowser's actual agility greatly varies in each of his appearances; as another example, Bowser features the highest top speed and heaviest weight of the racers in the ''Mario Kart'' games, offset by low acceleration and handling abilities. This aspect of his character is more represented in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'', which feature him with a more active and athletic moveset. | In contrast, Bowser's actual agility greatly varies in each of his appearances; as another example, Bowser features the highest top speed and heaviest weight of the racers in the ''Mario Kart'' games, offset by low acceleration and handling abilities.

Bowser remains part of the regular cast in the ''Super Mario'' series of video games, though his level of menace has fluctuated throughout his various game appearances. In many spinoffs, Bowser is on seemingly good terms with the other ''Mario'' characters in competitive scenarios like sports and kart racing, and has even allied himself with the protagonists of some games (albeit typically to serve his own purposes). In particular, some of the RPG titles feature Bowser as a playable party member, to the point of being a central protagonist in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story}}''. When in antagonistic roles, Bowser has occasionally been depicted as bumbling, comical, and slightly incompetent. He works hard to come across as "bad" in spite of this. Despite his popularity and iconic status, Bowser has never headlined a video game of his own, though he did | Bowser remains part of the regular cast in the ''Super Mario'' series of video games, though his level of menace has fluctuated throughout his various game appearances.

Despite his popularity and iconic status, Bowser has never headlined a video game of his own, though he did recieve his own television program for English-speaking markets, ''{{iw|mariowiki|King Koopa's Kool Kartoons}}'' in 1989, a clown show in the style of {{iw|wikipedia|Bozo the Clown}} supplemented with licensed and public domain cartoons. The series proved controversial for its morbid, villain-centric humor, being released during the final fringes of a time period in which dark comedy in children's television was somewhat taboo before an explosion of such content in the early 1990s. | ||
In {{uv|Yoshi}} series games, Bowser is most commonly seen as [[mariowiki:Baby Bowser|an infant]] in the custody of his guardian [[Kamek]], having already developed tyranical traits at a very early age and showing himself to be as capable of villainy as his adult self, if not unrestrained in it by his lack of maturity, albeit needing assistance through Kamek's magical powers - though he is also shown to team up with [[Yoshi]] in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Yoshi's Island DS}}'' - however, some ''Yoshi'' games feature the adult Bowser, typically through time travel plotlines. | In {{uv|Yoshi}} series games, Bowser is most commonly seen as [[mariowiki:Baby Bowser|an infant]] in the custody of his guardian [[Kamek]], having already developed tyranical traits at a very early age and showing himself to be as capable of villainy as his adult self, if not unrestrained in it by his lack of maturity, albeit needing assistance through Kamek's magical powers - though he is also shown to team up with [[Yoshi]] in ''{{iw|mariowiki|Yoshi's Island DS}}'' - however, some ''Yoshi'' games feature the adult Bowser, typically through time travel plotlines. | ||
