Bowser, also known as King Koopa, is a video game character and the primary antagonist of Nintendo's Mario series. In Japan, he is called Koopa (, Kuppa?). Bowser is Mario's archnemesis.

He is the leader and most powerful of the turtle-like Koopa race. Although he is considered an antagonist due to his ambition to kidnap Princess Peach and conquer the Mushroom Kingdom, Bowser has allied with Mario in a few games. Even in games where he teams up with Mario to face a proverbial common enemy, he is often arrogant and egotistical, often joining for selfish reasons (such as to get his castle back from invaders or retrieve Peach's stolen voice so he can kidnap her again).

Bowser was the creation of Nintendo designer and producer, Shigeru Miyamoto.
