He also wants to defeat the Mario Bros. ...And for some reason, he also wants to help Dr. Wily destroy Mega Man.

Battle

Bowser's AI is edited from Guts Man, and thus, he has only two attacks. The first of these is launching three fireballs in quick succession in the player's direction. The fireballs are spaced out enough that the player cannot jump over all three at once, but close together enough that landing between two of them and jumping back out again without simply being hit by them can be incredibly difficult. Bowser will also occasionally jump around the boss room, causing the ground to shake every time he hits the ground.

Did you know?

• Bowser's fireballs originally used the ones from Super Mario Bros. 3 but the coding kept messing up with it.

• Bowser was supposed to have one more attack, which was similar to Gutsman's double jump move where he brought down a rock to throw at the player, but instead of that, three or four boulders would fall onto the ground from above. Due to the author's very limited coding knowledge, that was never implemented.

• The reason Super Arrow was Bowser's real weakness is because it's a reference to a robot themed Super Mario Super Show episode where the Mario Bros. fought Bowser in a mecha suit. The Mario Bros' mecha suit had plungers for hands.
