Back when this game first came out, Bowser wasn't known as Bowser back then. Instead, he was called King Koopa or King of the Koopas. Now I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's what he was called in the instruction manual.

Another interesting fact: Mario used to be known as JumpMan in the original Donkey Kong.

I remember that. I also remember when they had the Super Mario Bros. Super Show, they just called him King Koopa. It was confusing for a second. I think in the manuel, he was called Bowser, King of the Koopa or something like that. Interesting about the JumpMan name in the original Donkey Kong. I'm assuming the Atari 2600 version because I don't think he was called Mario there.

Really? I didn't think he was called Bowser in the manual. I guess I'd have to double check. I remember seeing the Super Mario Bros. Super Show a couple of times and I see it's on DVD now.

Yeah I'm pretty sure on that. I saw they got that on DVD. I believe they also got the other Mario series's out on DVD as well. It is strange though that he had two different names at first but I think now he's been accepted as Bowser and that's it.

Ah, the bridge, long time no see. We used to call him King Koopa too, but adapted when Super Smash came out. XD

Those are very interest facts,and I think I kind of remember Bowser being called King Koopa back when the game first came out,but I am not completely sure,but I do know that Bowser just sounds better if you ask me,and I would have never guessed that Mario used to be known as JumpMan in the original Donkey Kong,but Mario sounds one hundred times better.
