The reason why this fight is memorable is because of the atmosphere, coupled with the fact that the bgm is nothing like any other track up to that point.
LonkFromPencilvania disney?! Not even close. The soft cartoon vibe maybe, but disney could never come close to how intense this title became towards the end.
I played this as a kid in the 90’s. I love the fact that throughout the whole game the music is all cutesy and everything... Then you get to this part, and out pops one of the most evil badass boss battle themes of all time. I’m 28 now, and this is STILL one of the most badass boss themes of all time!
Not gonna lie, I was actually laughing when he was normal size. But that moment he rises from the darkness, a lot bigger and with those fucking scary eyes, I pretty much shat myself. It got even worse when he started running towards you and getting closer, I actually ran out of the room once because I was terrified. In the other games you can see that Bowser challenges the heroes with a kind of sarcastic intent, like he thinks they're no match but is willing to give them a chance anyway just to embarrass them. But here, Bowser (or Baby Bowser) is like "you fucked with the wrong Koopa" and with no snippy comments or minions to call, he charges at you, does everything in his power to get to you and KILL you. The Yoshi New Island version was disappointing, no where near as tense as this
They actually ruined the remaked with this boss battle alone - with the music and everything else, so it's sad to read this and know they didn't care about paying homage
When Kammy Koopa says the Mushroom Kingdom deserves bad things to happen to them for all of the "bad things they've done to the Koopas over the years" I'm wondering if this is where it begins. The Koopas are scared shitless of Bowser even in his infancy and seem to spoil him by giving him anything he wants. So when Yoshi denies him to be spoiled by refusing him a ride, the shit hits the fan and Bowser's rage against every non-Koopa probably went downhill from there.
Man, I remember fighting this guy as a kid. I would actually get so scared when he charged towards the screen, I'd just turn off the console XD The day I finally beat his ass was a glorious day, indeed!
I was 5 years old when me and my brother got to this part. just as the rocks begin to fall on screen a very disatrous earthquake hit my home country (El Salvador) coined as the 2001 earthquake. In my innocence I remember looking up at my father after evacuating and asking him: “did bowser just do that?”. I just got a stare back. This fight is forever engraved into me...also one of the main reasons I love metal...I’m a grown ass man and I cry whenever I see the intro to this game. Nintendo, Koji Kondo. forever.
As soon as i beat baby bowser i thought it was over and I was relieved, but then i heard his music and saw rising from the screen, i was Like "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!!!!!!??
One day, I was watching my sister fight Bowser... I was listening to Trapt's old song "Headstrong" on full blast. The song started up right as Bowser was rising up. It was epic. xD Oh, the memories.
My first Super Nintendo Game and even today, it's still epic :3 I remember how much I've struggled defeating Giant Boweser xD it was so much fun compared to most games today
*2 random shy guys on the island* Shy guy 1: why do we have to protect a reptile like bowser? Shy guy 2: o_o Shy guy 1: like all he do is sleep! Shy guy 2: o_o Shy guy 1: aren't you going to say anything?? Shy guy 2: O_O' 1:09
This is the most intimidating Bowser's ever been imo. Sure he gets big all the time but here he looks like some kind of demon with the glowing eyes and deep roar, and when he starts rushing the stage it's nightmare fuel.
I remember the first Time I player this boss. I didnt know very Well what to do. But this final Gameplay with Bowser that was something. Endlife SNES was very very exciting for games.
I remember getting to this part as a kid and being terrified how he got closer and closer, there were times when the egg should've hit but the game wouldn't register it then he'd run up and break the floor
I don't think I ever had a boss fight in any game where it felt so much like a 'boss'. At the time, being a kid, this was a really exciting and intimidating figure.
Why cant they recreate this in all the new browser vs Yoshi fights... they just cant get it right. Bowser always end up looking cute even while being huge.. and the music never feels as epic or tense. i mean this shit seems real.. like this guy will fucking kill you. hes not screwing around, its just perfect.
They also seem to forget the metal style music which adds to the battle really well because it sounds so much more intense than the game's lighthearted soundtrack.
I think its the team as a whole tbh, they need to be replaced with someone that knows proper atmosphere and to not choose generic styling to sell a title. Yoshi titles are suppose to have a weird vibe to it with a cartoon style. Sad what YNI became and I the whple yarn concept is yawn inducing ://
I noticed in the gba port, for some reason, he starts his run slower than the original snes version, after being hit with an egg. He takes a few slow steps, and THEN starts running. In the original seen here, his initial steps are much faster. I can knock him back alot farther in the gba port.
It's all funny and cute but playing games with scale like that is pretty scary when you're a kid. I had this primal horror of VERY LARGE THINGS coming towards me, like the rolling stone ball in Indiana Jones gave me nightmares.
I will always remember playing this level for the first time and finally beating it. This was quite intense for 6 year old me 😂. I was like, “Mom!! Mom!! I beat it!!”
My favorite thing about this fight is Bowser himself. This GIANT SILLOUETED MONSTER that walks towards you, steps banging each time. It makes him so foreboding and awesome.
I had forgotten how much Yoshi kicks ass. He just beat the shit out of a giant fire spitting lizard with EGGS, a annoying baby on his back and he's actually smiling the whole time. It's also the best final boss theme of the whole Super Mario series. It needs a Rock Band version.
I recently saw the beta sprite for Bowser that i'm assuming was from the 2020 Nintendo leak, and man, to everyone who thought this was scary, don't look up his beta sprite because it's absolute nightmare fuel.
Man, none of the other "Yoshi games" have come close to this one. I just wish that you would have been able to fight Kamek if you beat the secret level at the end of the sixth world from getting 100 points in all levels and have a second ending , kinda like in the 2nd and 3rd Donkey Kong Country games. I also find the sound effects of Yoshi jumping / shooting his tongue much better than the high-pitched voice sound effects in the newer games.
I remember wetting myself when the platform got VERY limited and Bowser got VERY close back when I played But even I don't know what happens when he reaches you... I'd think Insta-death.
Whoo ... I juge this game here in Mexico ... what memories ... congratulations to Magus92, really surprised me because I never play Bowser, you if you were addicted to SNES .... Bravo for your play, and again congratulations for upload ... mmm just waiting to hear again mourn baby mario bros. Ah por cierto soy de México solo te traduje para que leyeras mi comentario.... Congratulations.
You think Dead Space has scary enemies, you havent felt fear until you saw Big Baby Bowser rise out of the darkness with pupiless eyes start running at you like Godzilla coming to destroy Tokyo. God this scared the ever living hell out of me when i was a kid, god damn!
Oh my gosh, when I was little this fight use to scare me. If you hit Bowser consecutively like that it pisses him off and makes him charge toward you till he's right up on you. I had a case happen where I did that but then they didn't give me any freakin eggs and he charged right through the castle and killed me! T.T
Yea.. That is one pissed off Jr.Bowser that doesnt like gween donkeys. Music was always the epic part, or missing an egg and having him dash right at you, making you panic.
Dude, the first time I saw Bowser running at me when I was a kid, I threw the controller away and ran out of the room. It scared the shit out of me!
Unknown 44 Indeed.
omg same..
I was watching my sister play and ran away scared. She got be back in the room and unpaused and he was right up against the screen
same xddd
CoTeCiOtm this boss scared me shitless
The reason why this fight is memorable is because of the atmosphere, coupled with the fact that the bgm is nothing like any other track up to that point.
tahutoa The game has a very old style Disney sort of vibe to me.
LonkFromPencilvania disney?! Not even close. The soft cartoon vibe maybe, but disney could never come close to how intense this title became towards the end.
The first bit of the song is akin to horror film soundtracks-
So this is how mario and bowser's rivalry started..All because Baby Bowser wanted to ride a gween donkey(Yoshi). XD.
I played this as a kid in the 90’s. I love the fact that throughout the whole game the music is all cutesy and everything... Then you get to this part, and out pops one of the most evil badass boss battle themes of all time. I’m 28 now, and this is STILL one of the most badass boss themes of all time!
This game was insanely good!
This was terrifying and... yet metal / satisfying (IYKYK).
Not gonna lie, I was actually laughing when he was normal size. But that moment he rises from the darkness, a lot bigger and with those fucking scary eyes, I pretty much shat myself. It got even worse when he started running towards you and getting closer, I actually ran out of the room once because I was terrified.

The Yoshi New Island version was disappointing, no where near as tense as this

th-cam.com/video/1usVKAEdJlk/w-d-xo.html - THIS, gives him proper justice despite never being used in a game.
God I remember facing this guy, I was actually freaking out back in day when it got more closer...ah such great memories X3
The battle that made every kid s#it their pants. The theme was epic, it made Baby Bowser charging at you 1000 times scarier.
The tension to the final fight is incredible.
When Kammy Koopa says the Mushroom Kingdom deserves bad things to happen to them for all of the "bad things they've done to the Koopas over the years"
I'm wondering if this is where it begins. The Koopas are scared shitless of Bowser even in his infancy and seem to spoil him by giving him anything he wants.

tenchimuyo69 So he's a koopa extremist? Doesn't explain the non koopas in his empire.
It’s actually kamek the magikoopa. Not kammy
Man, I remember fighting this guy as a kid. I would actually get so scared when he charged towards the screen, I'd just turn off the console XD The day I finally beat his ass was a glorious day, indeed!
It was them Solid White Eyes wasn't it?
I was 5 years old when me and my brother got to this part. just as the rocks begin to fall on screen a very disatrous earthquake hit my home country (El Salvador) coined as the 2001 earthquake.

That was perfect timing for a disastrous event, although looks epic to experience to think bowser's a real God that would cause earthquakes and stuff.
2:27
It was at that moment we knew...
Our pants were shat.
Quite possibly one of the tensest moments I've experienced in Mario's history.
Giant Bowser: I'm the biggest Koopa
Giga Bowser: how cute
Mega Bowser of Super Mario Galaxy 2: hold my beer
(giant) Baby Bowser: kids...
It would be weird seeing bowser drinking beer
Giant baby bowser: Hmmmm? Waht kind of yellow dwink is twat? Me wanna dwink! MINE! MINE!
*giant baby Bowser boss music plays while baby Luigi, baby peach, baby Daisy and baby Rosalina are still kidnapped* Yoshi: Uh oh, That's not good
Scary-ass Bowser comin' outta nowhere
I know right ?
molten freddy what is wrong with you
*Wait till you see the beta version*
@@jetpackdog3427 *What, where, where is it*
this guy got deadly accuracy
I am so sad that the new Nintendo games lost this kind of darkness the old games had beside still being colorful games for children.
The music for this is one of the best for any final boss.
This boss terrified me when I was younger with baby bowser running at the screen getting closer and closer
So less disappointing than the new Island final boss.
kayonesoft Yeah, this is way better than the new Island one
That’s because this fight was known for frightening young children
its so scary when he runs up to you as fast as possible
As soon as i beat baby bowser i thought it was over and I was relieved, but then i heard his music and saw rising from the screen, i was Like "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!!!!!!??
The most intense Bossfight of my Childhood! i cried, i sweated, but in the end i have these memories now
One day, I was watching my sister fight Bowser... I was listening to Trapt's old song "Headstrong" on full blast. The song started up right as Bowser was rising up. It was epic. xD Oh, the memories.
Baby bowsers yawn is the best
rated e for everyone
My first Super Nintendo Game and even today, it's still epic :3
I remember how much I've struggled defeating Giant Boweser xD it was so much fun compared to most games today
The first time I played this in the late 90s, even the pre fight when he's trying to ride Yoshi with the boss music, you knew you were in deep shit.
I could never beat this damn level
One of the best Mario games to play and the music is totally sick in this battle
Favorite boss battle music EVER.

Lmfaooo
I just beat the game a couple hours ago. It’s absolutely INSANE how well it’s aged! Just a masterpiece :)
I remember being a little kid always freaking out when Bowser starting getting really close to the screen. ^_^
came here for some nostalgia, ended up with a ptsd anxiety attack when he missed the egg
😂 Bowser looked just like Bowser Jr. I thought it was him at first. Makes sense since Bowser is suppose to be 34.
my first favorite video game all time
Damn Mario must need some serious counseling after that one
the first giga Bowser still remains as the best one, even after two decades
Thank GOD all Yoshis want to be dragons, without that flutter jump we'd all be screwed!
This is the most intimidating Bowser's ever been imo. Sure he gets big all the time but here he looks like some kind of demon with the glowing eyes and deep roar, and when he starts rushing the stage it's nightmare fuel.
Man, no wonder Bowser imprisoned all the yoshis when he got the their island, he must have had some bad memories with them.
I remember the first Time I player this boss. I didnt know very Well what to do. But this final Gameplay with Bowser that was something.
Endlife SNES was very very exciting for games.
I remember getting to this part as a kid and being terrified how he got closer and closer, there were times when the egg should've hit but the game wouldn't register it then he'd run up and break the floor
I saw this video long time ago when I was younger and I was so scared when baby bowser ran closer
I don't think I ever had a boss fight in any game where it felt so much like a 'boss'. At the time, being a kid, this was a really exciting and intimidating figure.
0:09 I like how they used this sound for Kamek’s horn in MK8 :)
You made this video in 2008!? How late! My life started in 2011!
Why cant they recreate this in all the new browser vs Yoshi fights... they just cant get it right. Bowser always end up looking cute even while being huge.. and the music never feels as epic or tense. i mean this shit seems real.. like this guy will fucking kill you. hes not screwing around, its just perfect.
They also seem to forget the metal style music which adds to the battle really well because it sounds so much more intense than the game's lighthearted soundtrack.
I think its the team as a whole tbh, they need to be replaced with someone that knows proper atmosphere and to not choose generic styling to sell a title. Yoshi titles are suppose to have a weird vibe to it with a cartoon style. Sad what YNI became and I the whple yarn concept is yawn inducing ://
I always wondered how far you could knock bowser into the backround.
LordTakeshi pretty far if you keep hitting him nonstop without missing
I noticed in the gba port, for some reason, he starts his run slower than the original snes version, after being hit with an egg. He takes a few slow steps, and THEN starts running. In the original seen here, his initial steps are much faster. I can knock him back alot farther in the gba port.
@@Mikey-1990 true, i once knocked him back REALLY far, i was very amused
i feel scared when he gets close when i was little the music scared me lol also the music made me have a nightmare once lol
1:09 when Brock Lesnar music hits!
kamek has got some wicked growth hormone powder
It's all funny and cute but playing games with scale like that is pretty scary when you're a kid. I had this primal horror of VERY LARGE THINGS coming towards me, like the rolling stone ball in Indiana Jones gave me nightmares.
I will always remember playing this level for the first time and finally beating it. This was quite intense for 6 year old me 😂. I was like, “Mom!! Mom!! I beat it!!”
After all those years this boss fight still scares the shit out of me
My favorite thing about this fight is Bowser himself. This GIANT SILLOUETED MONSTER that walks towards you, steps banging each time. It makes him so foreboding and awesome.
I had forgotten how much Yoshi kicks ass. He just beat the shit out of a giant fire spitting lizard with EGGS, a annoying baby on his back and he's actually smiling the whole time.
It's also the best final boss theme of the whole Super Mario series. It needs a Rock Band version.
He went from 0 to HOLY SH*T in a matter of seconds
I swear this is still the most terrifying and fearsome boss fight I have ever fought.
I recently saw the beta sprite for Bowser that i'm assuming was from the 2020 Nintendo leak, and man, to everyone who thought this was scary, don't look up his beta sprite because it's absolute nightmare fuel.
1:04 Well shit a kids size boss just turned into a monster.
When i first played the boss (i was about 4 yrs old) i shitted the whole city cause giant baby bowser creeped the hell outa me :D
@@Mofeisxxla What do you mean you shit the whole city?
The evil eyes and the mawshot scared the fuck out of me when I was 9!
Scariest version of Bowser to date.... Until that Bowser's Fury trailer this morning. Holy crap.
1:21 The "Yoshi's island is for little kids" starter pack
When Bowser is rising up from the dark Yoshi keeps looking back at us like, "You seein this shit!?"
i remember fighting him when i was bad, and he just keeps on just a running, as i miss my shots, it was so scary lol
I remember absolutely shitting bricks at this (basically I was scared shitless) when I was 8 years old on my dads snes (this was like 2015)
{🎶😊Nice baby bowser yoshi island 🏝️🎧}
Bowser really needed a haircut
Back in the day when Yoshi was fucking awesome.
I love The Rock-Music at the end. Awesome!!
Literally came here just to see baby bower run toward the screen
Man, none of the other "Yoshi games" have come close to this one. I just wish that you would have been able to fight Kamek if you beat the secret level at the end of the sixth world from getting 100 points in all levels and have a second ending , kinda like in the 2nd and 3rd Donkey Kong Country games.

Giant Bowser in SNES: MOOOOOOOO!!!
Giant Bowser in GBA: ROAAAAAAAR!!!
i love the music in this fight
now, this is why Baby Bowser is a Legend spirit in Smash.
he's the best.
(I have him, he's very hard to beat.)
when i was young i was scared of the chain chomps XD
I remember wetting myself when the platform got VERY limited and Bowser got VERY close back when I played But even I don't know what happens when he reaches you... I'd think Insta-death.
Platform collapses,insta-death.
Whoo ... I juge this game here in Mexico ... what memories ... congratulations to Magus92, really surprised me because I never play Bowser, you if you were addicted to SNES .... Bravo for your play, and again congratulations for upload ... mmm just waiting to hear again mourn baby mario bros. Ah por cierto soy de México solo te traduje para que leyeras mi comentario....

Most Epic boss battle of Any 2d platformer. Let alone most epic Final boss :D
Bowser was more spoiled than his son.
You think Dead Space has scary enemies, you havent felt fear until you saw Big Baby Bowser rise out of the darkness with pupiless eyes start running at you like Godzilla coming to destroy Tokyo. God this scared the ever living hell out of me when i was a kid, god damn!
SO SCARY, especially his voice!!!!
Giant baby bowser SCARE me
Just noticed the reverse space invaders gameplay
After first watching the second battle. Boy that hade scared for 3 days
Bowser: Hey. I wanna ride da YOSHI.
Yoshi: Ground SLAP!
i laugh when mario is just sitting there just looking around while yoshis doing all the work not thinking much xD
8 year old me still thinks this is nightmare fuel.
“blowing fire like king koopa”
Oh my gosh, when I was little this fight use to scare me. If you hit Bowser consecutively like that it pisses him off and makes him charge toward you till he's right up on you. I had a case happen where I did that but then they didn't give me any freakin eggs and he charged right through the castle and killed me! T.T
Yea.. That is one pissed off Jr.Bowser that doesnt like gween donkeys.
Music was always the epic part, or missing an egg and having him dash right at you, making you panic.
yoshi caused the war between mario and bowser
3:02 gnarly landing!
Nintendo don’t make games like this no more sadly where we have to find bowser
Should've had this one in the movie
2:21 OH LAWD, HE COMIN'
I fucking lost my shit the first time I saw this guy.
"What do I do what do I do what do I do what do I do what do I do what do I do"
Remember.. all Baby Bowser wanted was a ride.
