Koopa Kids, also known as Baby Bowser, and Mini-Bowser, are Bowser's henchmen in the Mario Party series. They first appear in Mario Party. One Koopa Kid has notably appeared as a playable character in both Mario Party 5 and Mario Party 6.

Koopa Kid has never made any physical appearance after Mario Party 7, possibly because of Bowser Jr. due to their physical similarities. This is further proven by Bowser Jr. outright replacing Koopa Kid in various minigame remakes in Mario Party: The Top 100 and Mario Party Superstars. Yasuyuki Oyagi, one of the directors of Mario Kart 7 has stated that Koopa Kid is retired, much to some fans' disappointment.

Profile[]

Koopa Kid resembles a miniature version of Bowser. He has a red tuft of hair on his head, and his eyes are surmounted by red eyebrows. His eyes are black vertical ovals with tiny, white pupils (which don't seem to move, forcing him to rotate his head). His size is about a quarter that of the Koopa King himself.

In Mario Party 4, Koopa Kid has a twin brother with an identical appearance to his albeit holding a fan. This brother of Koopa Kid can send gusts of wind from his fan.

In Mario Party 5's story mode, Mario Party 6's Solo mode, and the multiplayer Bowser minigames of Mario Party 7, Koopa Kid has two new brothers, who replace his brother from Mario Party 4 and are essentially palette swaps of Koopa Kid himself in the colour of the top of the head, the shell, and the hair (eyebrows included). Koopa Kid himself has a green shell, green hair, and a green head, while his brothers look the same but with their shell, head, and eyebrows red for one and blue for the other.

In Mario Party series[]

Mario Party[]

Koopa Kid only appears on the final board Eternal Star, where players have to pay 20 coins and win a dice block mini-game to obtain a Star. After all, seven stars are collected, seven new Star spaces will reappear.

Mario Party 2[]

Koopa Kid (called Baby Bowser) takes the place of the star once a player has taken it. If you land on his space, he takes five coins. If a character wins a Bowser Bomb, the item will activate on its own and Baby Bowser lends his spot to Bowser, who moves around the board with Dice Blocks to mug characters for any coins.

Mario Party 3[]

In this game, Koopa Kid now owns an Item Shop in the same location as the one owned by Toad on the board, with each turn randomizing whose shop will come up as a player passes. Koopa Kid's items are all the opposite of ones sold in Toad's store (Example: Toad sells Boo Repellent while Koopa Kid sells Boo Bells), except for the Item Bag and the Skeleton Key. Koopa Kid also appears in several of the Mini-Games, serving as the "losing prize" in the Item Mini-Games.

Mario Party 4[]

Koopa Kid makes a minor appearance as the character who explains the rules of Bowser Mini-games and takes your coins if you land on a Bowser Space as well as announcing the total score in Darts of Doom. The other Koopa Kid appears fanning Bowser. The duo also appear to aid Bowser during the second area of the final boss minigame, The Final Battle!, attacking players with fireballs and miniature wind storms.

Mario Party 5[]

The Koopa Kid is a playable character from the start. Three Koopa Kids, a green, a red and a blue one appear as opponents in Story Mode, which means that Koopa Kid can't be chosen in it.

Mario Party 6[]

Koopa Kid appears as a playable character. The three Koopa Kids from Mario Party 5 make a return appearance in this game as opponents in the mini-games of Single player mode. The normal Koopa Kid is now a playable character in Single Player mode as well, and he seems to be on Mario's side rather than in Bowser's side.

Mario Party Advance[]

He makes his first appearance by squishing the Toad and throwing all of the Gaddgets away. It has its own role appearing from nowhere and sometimes play Rochambeau. If the player wins the player continues. He even appears on mini-game spaces. If the player wins, he is rewarded one Mushroom, to which the Koopa Kid sulks over handing it to them. If the player loses, Koopa Kid takes one Mushroom away from them.

Mario Party 7[]

Koopa Kid has a space named the Koopa Kid Space which charges players if they land on it. Three multi-colored Koopa Kids appear in Bowser Mini-games. This is also the last Mario Party game to have the Koopa Kids due to Bowser Jr. taking over the role.
