There's been a lot of threads about the villains but there hadn't been one out of ALL of them. What do you think is the best Mario villain EVER?

I would say either Bowser or Cackletta. I like them the same, and I can't decide, so....uh....BOWLETTA!

Come on. Why is this even a thread. Bowser has the optimal blend of coolness, timelesness, and never-be-rid-of-him-no-matter-how-many-times-he-is-defeated factors.

My opinion is the same as Jakuroth's.

In my opinion, no Mario game is complete without Bowser as the main villain and as the final boss.

But in order for this post not to be spam... here's the reasons why it is so.



Wart: BOOOO! A frog that use bubbles as a weapon? PAH!

Smithy: Complete Squaresoft villain cliche.

Cackletta: Fawful (remembered his name! YAY!) is funny and all... but... just tell me, how many Big Bad Evil Witches are there in video games? Again, cliche.

Bowser: WOW! He's NOT a cliche and is NOT lame! Not only that but he's actually a villain who tries to be both evil and funny and SUCCEED! The winner. No contest.

Fawful is the shit.

I mean, come on... this quote...aah.

I HAVE FURY!

Timeless.


But, aside from that, seeing as how Fawful's not on this, I'd have to go with ... Bowser. You'd have to have guts [and be all-around stupid] to keep trying to beat the same guy over and over.

I mean, really; you drop him in lava. He comes back, AGAIN. You drop him again. He returns. You send him down a bottomless pit. He builds a fruity clown helicopter and throws reject robots at you. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Bowser just kicks ass. Besides, his hair's that kind of firey orange/red. Pwn.

Er... how so? A big santa claus who transforms into different things doesn't remind me of any previous Square villains

Now c'mon! I don't care if he's not THE badguy of Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga, but you HAVE to have Fawful on there!

"I am the great Cackletta's most best pupil, who is named Fawful! I am here, laughing at you!"

"In the last moments of the finale of the finale, when relief leads to negligence that begets rashness... That is when the comeback that faltered comes back and beats your pathetic comeback that I scoff at!"

"I HAVE FURY!"

"Have you readiness for this?!?"

"Once we awaken the Beanstar with Princess Peach's voice, this world will be Cackletta's snack cake!"

"St-Standing in the spotlight at such a gala of spectacularity... My nerves are nervous! But... Now that I am thinking... Cakletta's revival was all thanks to my quite nasty efforts!"

All that great quotage, and he's not on the poll? Bastard.

So, I vote Fawful 2004. And in second place is Booster and the Snifits. "Booster, sir, there's a 70% chance that the object you are standing on is a cake."

"Just hand over the beetle, nice and easy."
"Yea, or, or... we won't be your friend."



And in third place, Teh Axem Rangers!!!!!!!!11111123

Axem Black: "Hey, Red! Look down there! That's gotta be the ugliest mustache I've ever seen!"

Axem Pink: "Eww! Gross!"

Axem Yellow: "That guy's worse looking than that clod, Mario!"

Axem Green: "That IS Mario, you IDIOT!"
---------
Axem Pink: "Yo, Red!"
Axem Red: "What?"
Pink: "My makeup's running!"
Red: "Then change brands!"
Yellow: "Yo, RED!"
Red: "What?"
Yellow: "I'm hungry!"
Red: "Chew on your tongue!"

And in fourth place... Yaridovich! I need not quote him. He is just genius... and is doing all his hard work for brownie points!

And in fifth place... yes, Bowser. He is nice and all, but he just isn't as comical as some other villains, and comedy wins uber-points with me. But since he's the only guy on the list that's in the poll, I'll vote for him.

Let's be blunt: I hate Fawful. There, I said it.

Of course, it has to be Bowser. The others were one-hit wonders (But at least Wart was in SMA1, Allstars and of course SMB2 but all in the same game )

I said Wart even though SMB2 was a cheap makeover of Doki Doki Panic. You gotta hand it to a guy who can sit in a pit all day and belch bubbles and yet somehow manages to keep his cronies in line.

Bowser Bowser Bowser.

I mean, come on!

He's one of the only villains in gaming nowadays who's REAL. NONONO, not THAT kind of real...

As a person, I mean.

He's a jerk, but at the same time, he's not 'pure evil.' NOBODY is pure evil, just as nobody is pure good.

Bowser, it's safe to say, is more Mario's rival than enemy. Paper Mario made him out a little too much to be a villain, and I hope they fix that in the sequel, as they did in both Mario RPG and Superstar Saga.

Kamek, however, is my favorite villain of all, but that's because I created a personality for him.

Now I'll hand it to Fawful- damn, boy, you're kick-ass.

I don't need to repeat the quotes up there. Fawful's the man. But not the way I like my villains to be.

I mean, people say, 'Dude, Kefka is, like, SO EVIL.'

And I'm like, 'Well, maybe...But he looks like a CLOWN...and he's SO EVIL. I don't LIKE my villains to be SO EVIL.'

Fawful isn't SO EVIL...But...He's just not as cool as Bowser. He was a home run for the game, but as far as what my ideal villain is...he's nowhere CLOSE to Kamek. A good random cameo, for sure, but he has nothin' on Kamek...*blinkblink*

Of course, considering Kamek is someone whose persona I made up for my fiction, of COURSE I'm going to like him more.

We're talking about an insane old Koopa who's Bowser's Godfather who loves his grandkids to death and hates his son and is pissed because Bowser's parents- his dear friends- were killed in a war years ago because of the parents of the Mario Bros, and now he's out to become all-powerful and gather a team of 'villains' to be his minions.

When you've got the Hands, Metal Mario, Andross, Ganondorf, etc. as your SLAVES, basically...

When you get to the point where you take on the GODDESSES OF HYLIA and kick their ASSES...(Hylia is the planet's name as far as I'm concerned)

When you get to that point, you know you've got something going on.

Mario deserves to win for this reason:

He convinced his own kid that Peach was the kid's mom. How evil is that?

Tatanga's not on there cause nobody knows who he is unless you played Super Mario Land, a series more known for introducing Wario, a much better villain and now more a hero in his own right than anything, into the mix.

Smithy's not a cliche Squaresoft villain, but the fact that he's a Square villain in the first place should have gotten him banned from the list of Mario villains (even if SMRPG was one of the best Mario games).

Fawful isn't a badass or anything, but his goofyness kept me playing Superstar Saga. That and Luigi.

Wart is Wart. No personality, just some toad.

And frankly, I don't think Bowser's exactly a bad guy anymore. Nintendo's stuck him in so many situations where he's just not the villain (SMRPG, Superstar Saga, MarioKart, Melee, and all the rest), that he might as well have his own game, which would more than likely rock equally hard, if not harder, than most Mario games out there.

So we've got an unknown, a new hero, someone who'll never return, a green dude who speaks perfect engrish, a frog, and Bowser, who's decided to make up with Mario more than once for the good of the universe. I think Nintendo's trying to tell us all to just be friends. Unfortunately, it's doing it in the form of gratuitous violence, which Bowser is the master of. So, Bowser gets my vote.
