omg, this brings tears to my eyes, Bowser, being one of the biggest and badass villain in gaming history, is one of the best fathers as well, Goku should take notes!
Greeny Yoshi (RockStoneLee19) you will be neglected and be raised by a green slugman but that isnt so bad, whats bad is when youre still at a young age, he will force you to fight a giant green bugman that can regenerate which he himself couldnt beat, good luck with that, oh and by the way he will eventually leave your family for good when he meets a random provincial kid that has a potential in martial arts, so have fun with Goku being your father.
SuperSackCooper Well he's probably one of the few Nintendo characters who's a parent and actually tries to be one. And look at all the other parents in Nintendo games. Especially Pokemon.😅
either that, or he's still sour over a failed relationship, as you can tell they are perfectly okay being friends, but when he DOES kidnap peach, it's just another attempt to relive their honeymoon. Also, it's his JOB as a video game villain.
The point is to have the OPTION available; if parents or other busy bodies try to give Nintendo crap, they just need to show them this video and they're technically in the clear. Doesn't mean they'll still censor games to protect the little bratlings however...
This might sound stupid to some people, but I might actually use this because I find too often I play for way longer than I wanted to like I like doing other things rather than gaming but sometimes time can slip out of my mind.
SomecallmeJohnny Guessing Peach should've stayed with Bowser. He doesn't seem all that bad. Responsible father, loving parent. Hell I'd marry him. And I'm a human.
+Zwizard247 she was clothed though...that was unexpecting...and she wasn't like in a cage with daisy or some crap lol...but yeah bowser does love his peach posters and wallpapers and real life sized peach statues lol
Aww, this animation is lovely! Not only it makes Bowser and Bowser Jr. even more likable but it looks also really nice in my opinion. Really, Nintendo, give us more animated shorts. They are all such a joy to watch! ♥
Hey Derrick, I know that Ash and Andre left you behind to do all this TH-cam work while they're goofing off this the Switch, but just so you know, we really appreciate all the hard work and headaches you're enduring tonight to give us all this content. You're so awesome for all this! Thanks so much!!!
Everyone's talking about how Bowser is being a responsible father & has a Peach photo as his smartphone's wallpaper, and I'm just sitting here thinking: "Wow, Bowser is actually careful enough to be able to use a smart phone and to button mash on a controller without breaking them." Now if Nintendo could do this with all future parental guidance stuff and other commercials, that'd be great. Would take a lot longer than making a normal video with humans, but I'm sure most of us enjoy them more with characters, and appreciate the effort. Or could just make a web-series involving Bowser and his kids' every day lives when not doing evil stuff. I'd totally watch that. :D
That clip at 1:50 of Jr pointing at new games will be photoshopped and used as a GIF for years to come whenever people are awaiting a new exciting line up of games :P
Despite this being for a control I will never ever use, this video is just too cute to not smile at. Bowser is a good dad, and has Peach as his wallpaper. lol
Wow, Bowser is the main villain of a decades-old franchise and is still better than most parents who buy video games for their kids. Most don't even care to know what is in the game their kid is playing, let alone know about and actively use the parental controls. You go, King Koopa!
Can we get a show that's just about Bowser flipping between being a mature, well-rounded parent and acting like a princess-kidnapping maniac because he just has a blast being the villain?
I love the idea of Bowser being a real parent to Bowser Jr. It's just so adorable thinking about him worrying about whether his son is playing video games for too long.
This is why I'm glad my parents don't mind me playing video games (I was raised with them, my brother reviews them for a living). Also, Bowser has a phone with a Peach lock screen. Beautiful.
Im in Europe, and I say that this is the best informative video I have ever seen from Nintendo, and I am hoping to see more cutscenes/Cinematics like this. :D
I swear this was so cute /adorable that I forgot that It was about a parental app for the switch... I wonder what other apps they got for us, probs a calling service for friend group chats? Hey it's a possibility that I hope for... Btw Bowser's background is great 👍
The idea of parents controlling their kid's playtime might actually solve the one problem parents have with video games. Good idea Nintendo! On a side note, cute presentation, though I prefer to see Yoshi and Baby Mario.
Hm...everything seems right in this video. Bowser Jr being a bit spoiled, Bowser's wallpaper of Peach on his phone, Father-Son bonding...yep, all good stuff here! ;P
1:50 So now we know how the game boxes will look like. Also, it looks like the switch app will do a lot. Ive heard it may also be used for messaging and voice chat in-game.
I meant a troll would use the feature to get a kid pissed. For example an older brother using it to troll his younger brother and post the younger brothers reaction on TH-cam. I'll edit the comment.
Beside the fact that this was absolutely adorable and it's always great to see Bowser be a parent, this is a really smart idea and I hope it gets a lot of use for those with kids.
Bowser first dressed as a hipster, then a Jojo character, and now a parent role-model. Give him a round of applause.
The Trash Can Miiverse: Sad Santa/Lester I don't remember JoJo, unless you're talking about odessy
Chestbumphero It was Odessy.
"The name's Bowser E. O. Speedwagon, at your service."
General Dix Yes, I meant the 3DS plate trailer.
I call him Pimp Boss Bowser in Odyssey.
omg, this brings tears to my eyes, Bowser, being one of the biggest and badass villain in gaming history, is one of the best fathers as well, Goku should take notes!
Goku the 'hero' sucks at being a dad, Bowser the 'villain' rocks at being a dad.
...Welp.
Lmao. Take Goku's place and see how it feels to parent AND save the world. :P
I'd take Goku as my father any day.
Cedars
I'll be a strong motha if he was my father.
Greeny Yoshi (RockStoneLee19) you will be neglected and be raised by a green slugman but that isnt so bad, whats bad is when youre still at a young age, he will force you to fight a giant green bugman that can regenerate which he himself couldnt beat, good luck with that, oh and by the way he will eventually leave your family for good when he meets a random provincial kid that has a potential in martial arts, so have fun with Goku being your father.
Apparently Bowser of all people is now Nintendo's PARENT role-model.
SuperSackCooper
Well Bowser is the only character with childern, both biological and adopted.
TruelyJohn64 ehh I believe the koopaling being his kids at all (adopt or otherwise) was not canon. Though I could be wrong.
Rosalina and her thousand Lumas.
SuperSackCooper he's the ONLY parent tbh
SuperSackCooper Well he's probably one of the few Nintendo characters who's a parent and actually tries to be one. And look at all the other parents in Nintendo games. Especially Pokemon.😅
I like this side of Bowser
deviantartist12 same
deviantartist12 yeah
deviantartist12 He's terrible at socializing with women, but is otherwise a very attentive father.
Yeah, seems legit.
Yeah, I love this fatherly Bowser.
I reminds me of the good paper Mario games bowser (first 3)
Compare how entertaining this is compared to the 3DS parental controls video. Nintendo's presentation is really stepping up
Word.
OK this was a Jnuary presentation, how awesome is Nintendo's E3 going to be?
DryBones271 amazing my friend. amazing
Bowser is a responsible father
Who teaches his son that kidnapping is ay-okay! :)
ehh
reponsible-ish
Supertron
Responsible Father... Not responsible person
LOLMan yeah teaching his son to kidnap women yeah very responsible!
and trying to kill a man and taking over a kingdom yeah totally responsible father not responsible in any other sense
This warms my fucking heart. Bowser is such a good dad
*Bowser is such a grand dad
DaDood Well it does look official
Your thumbnail makes this comment hilarious lol
DaDood Same ;3;
But then you remember he lied to Bowser Jr. about Peach being his mother and caused Mario Sunshine
i like how bowsers background on this smart phone is peach XD
BoredWeazul he you know
Ultimate creeper vibes...
Well in the teased mario game he marries peach, so... I would take my wife as background too :D
either that, or he's still sour over a failed relationship, as you can tell they are perfectly okay being friends, but when he DOES kidnap peach, it's just another attempt to relive their honeymoon. Also, it's his JOB as a video game villain.
THE PLOT THICKENS
I love how Bowser has Peach as his phone wallpaper!
Marvin Martinez I thought the same thing
Marvin Martinez Same here :3
Bowser using a cell phone with a Princess Peach background is all I wanted in life. I am complete.
BurningLanguages same
Peach Wallpaper...
Was just about to say lol
Marshall Lee I know right lol!!!
hehehehe
That just begs for fanfics.
Haha,Bowser....
Great video for a service like three people are actually gonna use.
Hence why it wasn't in the presentation.
The point is to have the OPTION available; if parents or other busy bodies try to give Nintendo crap, they just need to show them this video and they're technically in the clear. Doesn't mean they'll still censor games to protect the little bratlings however...
This might sound stupid to some people, but I might actually use this because I find too often I play for way longer than I wanted to like I like doing other things rather than gaming but sometimes time can slip out of my mind.
hey at lest the option is there.
In Japan this will be a feature parents will use very often because unlike NA/EU parents are really into what their children play
The Royal Koopa Line is as strong as ever. But for now, let's go home and play some Switch.
Oh it's Johnny
SomecallmeJohnny Guessing Peach should've stayed with Bowser. He doesn't seem all that bad. Responsible father, loving parent. Hell I'd marry him. And I'm a human.
I see what you did there Johnny, lol.
SomecallmeJohnny hi Johnny
Hi there, Johnny.
bowser using a phone? there's something I thought I never see.
James J Carotto and having a Screensaver of peach, I expected that
James J Carotto
I'm surprised he doesn't scratch the screen with those claws of his...
James J Carotto He probably has a Target with Marios face on it to practice darts
+Zwizard247 she was clothed though...that was unexpecting...and she wasn't like in a cage with daisy or some crap lol...but yeah bowser does love his peach posters and wallpapers and real life sized peach statues lol
So is Bowser using a tea cup.
never telling my parents about this
Mcbabbitt44 N E V E R
Mcbabbitt44 Inb4 Fox News reports it
millieman76 good one 😂
This is why Bowser needs his own game, he's more entertaining and is ADORABLE.
This is the Bowser the media doesn't want you to see.
I'm jus' wonderin' how Bowser's smartphone isn't scratched to Hell an' back.
Screen protector, works like a charm.
PurpleWind64 It has Corning Donkey Kong glass 4.
When Bowser is the parent role model of Nintendo.
great now how is Bowser Jr going to shit talk on Call of Duty?
gametron59 "Yah lets go thats how we do hammer bro!" Handing Ls all day lmao
that be funny as hell.
I'd love to see that. Then see Bowsers reaction to that, then see a bunch of funny videos remixing that.
WhiteCaneV1
-"Shit that kid beat me!"
"Wahahaha!"
-"?????"
Although I'm not sure how he'd trash talk, haven't played much of sunshine....
Lytbulb no
Daww, Nintendo needs to make Bowser the parental control icon
Bowser is a better dad than most real life ones
Aww, this animation is lovely! Not only it makes Bowser and Bowser Jr. even more likable but it looks also really nice in my opinion. Really, Nintendo, give us more animated shorts. They are all such a joy to watch! ♥
No fair Bowser! You got the switch early!
spectrumbots42 I mean, he is part of nintendo after all
spectrumbots42 Jimmy Fallon had a early ticket b4 them
You do know Bowser can time travel, right?
Sonario648 uh, I know that. I was making a joke btw.
Mario's time machine? please don't remember us to that crappy game
I love how Bowser's lock screen is Princess Peach.
Hey Derrick, I know that Ash and Andre left you behind to do all this TH-cam work while they're goofing off this the Switch, but just so you know, we really appreciate all the hard work and headaches you're enduring tonight to give us all this content. You're so awesome for all this! Thanks so much!!!
Bowser must go through so many phones with his large claws.
90% People Wont show this to their parents
Sorry your wrong, 99% won't show them
ur all wrong
*I WILL*
*DUN DUN DUUUUUUN*
they wont give a shit anyway
Yoshi Swagger ya missed an extra 10%
I'm sad about Nintendo parental controls *G* *R* *A* *N* *D* *SAD* to be exact
JeffyStreet 123 thx

alright where was this during the presentation
ChibiLawl They didn't show alot at the presentation. My guess is time limit
Well, Bowser being an awesome dad is pretty much canon.
Have you played Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (Bros)? You should.
More like a dad that lefts his son with a huge amount of free time alone...
Ya boi Bowser got the Peach Wallpaper
That clip at 1:50 of Jr pointing at new games will be photoshopped and used as a GIF for years to come whenever people are awaiting a new exciting line up of games :P
Rule #1: Never tell your parents
Rule #2: NEVER TELL YOUR PARENTS!
Rule #3: Tell someone else's parents.
JackofAllSpadess RULE 5:EAT CEREAL
JackofAllSpadess Bowser doesn't want his sun playing butt ball on the switch lol
JackofAllSpadess Rule # 3 telling your parents is-
Sonic : NO GOOD!
LMAO BOWSER HAS PEACH AS HIS PHONE BACKGROUND
Oh my God they're adorable!!!
I didn't understand a thing but their father-son relationship is SO CUTE!!!
humorous yet creepy how peach is his lockscreen.
2:23 He's playing Bayonetta
Bowser's Peach lock screen though
For some reason the idea of Bowser with a smartphone is so funny to me.
Despite this being for a control I will never ever use, this video is just too cute to not smile at. Bowser is a good dad, and has Peach as his wallpaper. lol
My parents are going to annoy the crap out of me with this crap
ItsYourBoyGuzma Just don't tell them this feature exists.
My dad watches everything about the switch, as we are both getting one
ItsYourBoyGuzma Whelp, best of luck to you...but sorry.
ItsYourBoyGuzma watch YOUR LANGUAGE.
ItsYourBoyGuzma Don't show them this.
oh boy, you know people are going to use this to fuck with their friends lol
THIS GUY HAS PEACH AS HIS SCREENSAVER! IM DONE FOR TONIGHT NINTENDO
his wallpaper is literally someone he stalks.
2:23 when Jr. discovers Bowser's Peach hentai.
So, we have "New Game", "New Game" and "New Game" incoming for the Nintendo Switch.
I'm personally looking forward to new game tbh, don't get me wrong, new game looks fun and all but new game looks like it has more replay value
Sean Sealey I hope that New Game isnt too expensive tho
+Sean Sealey (Gentleman Snake) Nah trust me, you're definitely gonna want New Game instead. The other two are meh but New Game? Perfection
New Game looks like shit, New Game looks ok, and NEW GAME LOOKS LIKE THE BEST GAME TO EVER EXIST. HOLY SHIT.
I expect it to be a subpar followup to Old Game
2:00 That screensaver thou
Nintendo actually managed to make me watch an entire video on Parental controls. Well played, worth it to see Bowser with a small smart phone.
Giant Bowser with tiny phone is the best thing I've seen all year. That includes all of last year as well.
Is he playing Sunshine HD or 2 in the beginning, Nintendo?
yungmatt009 There's no way to know, but probably not. I don't recall ever using the L and R buttons a lot aside from hover
Wow, Bowser is the main villain of a decades-old franchise and is still better than most parents who buy video games for their kids. Most don't even care to know what is in the game their kid is playing, let alone know about and actively use the parental controls. You go, King Koopa!
Can we get a show that's just about Bowser flipping between being a mature, well-rounded parent and acting like a princess-kidnapping maniac because he just has a blast being the villain?
2:23 He's probably looking at rule 34 art
So hyped for
Parental controls
I love the idea of Bowser being a real parent to Bowser Jr. It's just so adorable thinking about him worrying about whether his son is playing video games for too long.
He has the kid lead an armada of soldiers to kidnap the monarch, but God forbid he let the kid play any longer than an hour...
Greatest video _ever_.
Bowser. Real Nintendo Bowser. Owns an IPhone.
Bowser doesn't want JR to be playing the next Beyonetta game lmao...that's ok I'll play it😂
This is outright adorable. And of course Bowser's lock screen would be a picture of Peach.
I like how Bowser's screensaver is a picture of Peach.
This is why I'm glad my parents don't mind me playing video games (I was raised with them, my brother reviews them for a living).
Also, Bowser has a phone with a Peach lock screen. Beautiful.
Loving the attention Nintendo is giving Bowser Jr. 😊
He's not much of a villain, but Bowser is actually a pretty good dad.
I know it won't make it to America for being too strange, but this ad is so fucking good.
Phil-Angie Carpal but it already has...
Randomface gaming It has when and where do I find it 😂😂
Sonic_ The_Hedgehog it's on nintendo's site
M MRogerS Tru
Im in Europe, and I say that this is the best informative video I have ever seen from Nintendo, and I am hoping to see more cutscenes/Cinematics like this. :D
Props for Bowser for not scratching his iPhone with his claws.
1:58 Also, Princess Peach screensaver...You creep.
Despite his anger issues Bowser does his best to be a good dad, and I can respect that.
I swear this was so cute /adorable that I forgot that It was about a parental app for the switch... I wonder what other apps they got for us, probs a calling service for friend group chats? Hey it's a possibility that I hope for... Btw Bowser's background is great 👍
The idea of parents controlling their kid's playtime might actually solve the one problem parents have with video games. Good idea Nintendo! On a side note, cute presentation, though I prefer to see Yoshi and Baby Mario.
0:31
In that part Bowser is a pretty good representation of my mom. Especially when he starts spitting fire!
Fuck Zelda. This is where it's at.
This is the most father-son bonding we have seen these 2 have since sunshine. And it's for a parental restrictions ad. Brilliant.
And the father of the year award goes to....Bowser!
This actually got me excited at the prospect of Nintendo theatrical films. Their character designs and animations are so charming; I want more!
Everyone here is talking about how cute Bowser Jr. is and how good at parenting Bowser is, but I want to know how Bowser doesn't break his IPhone.
Bowser is best dad. This video was way too adorable.
Why not upload the English version?
+Good ol' 660 Yes there is
I just saw it a few minutes ago
Good ol' 660 There is. Check their website.
Bowser J 128 There isn't one yet.
Bowser J 128 there probably isn't an English version yet
www.nintendo.com/switch/
Scroll down and you'll see the English version.
nintendo.com
Hm...everything seems right in this video. Bowser Jr being a bit spoiled, Bowser's wallpaper of Peach on his phone, Father-Son bonding...yep, all good stuff here! ;P
This is what Bowser does after the events of Super Mario Sunshine.
I have no idea what the dude was saying, but this shit was adorable! lol on Peach being Bowser's wallpaper.
This makes me happy in a way that it definitely shouldn't
Bowser having Peach as his smartphone wallpaper had me rolling. LOL! XD
Is no one talking about how bowser jr is now in mario kart 8 deluxe or was it in the trailer?
Toastie It was in the trailier the uploaded after the presentation.
Something about the way Bowser holds the phone is too precious and pure for this world.
I like how his wallpaper is princess peach
1:50 So now we know how the game boxes will look like. Also, it looks like the switch app will do a lot. Ive heard it may also be used for messaging and voice chat in-game.
So it's canon that Bowser has a Smartphone and Peach as his background.
ROFL! This is the best thing Nintendo has ever made regarding to little videos like this! They need to make more of these!
How adorable!
I love this. Just seeing bower with a phone in his hand is gold enough.
2:25
Jr's lookin at Splatoon hentai I see.
Really, I thought it would be a new Bayonetta trailer.
I haven't seen a positive relationship between the two since Sunshine, this is so charming!
How many women are going to use this, not for their children, but for their husbands? haha
ROFL the sad thing is that it's probably gonna happen exactly like that.
how many breads have you eaten in your life?
And then of course it'll be used so they can play it themselves~
Betooie Torres DIO!
How many boys are going to secretly not tell their father about this and then use it on him?
I would love it if Nintendo made a little mini series revolving around Bowser and Jr interacting like this.
Can't wait for:
"KID BREAKS SWITCH OVER TROLL USING PARENTAL CONTROLS TO STOP THE GAME!!!!!!"
The video says it should only be used as a last resort. A parent could wait until the next savepoint to shut off the console.
I meant a troll would use the feature to get a kid pissed. For example an older brother using it to troll his younger brother and post the younger brothers reaction on TH-cam. I'll edit the comment.
This was the cutest little thing I've seen in days, probably weeks, and I love it!
*Bowser is best KingDad*
sherrie harden
Thx :)
Beside the fact that this was absolutely adorable and it's always great to see Bowser be a parent, this is a really smart idea and I hope it gets a lot of use for those with kids.
I'm hyped for New Game 1:49
cutest thing ever, I love the way this allows parents to monitor their child's playtime.
