If Mario (or Luigi) has a Mega Mushroom as his backup item, then the player can use this item to simply jump on Dry Bowser, who then quickly crumbles in defeat. Dry Bowser is also vulnerable to three [[shell dash]] hits, just like his living self.

If the player uses the [[Warp Cannon]] that leads to [[World 5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 5]] found in World 1 before taking on the castle, Bowser's demise will appear unexplained, as he is never seen falling into the lava before appearing in his Dry Bowser form in the first World 8 castle. Regardless, at the game's final battle, Bowser Jr. tosses the disassembled Dry Bowser into a cauldron, which causes Bowser to revert to his original form, albeit larger.

Dry Bowser reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' as the castle boss of [[World Star (New Super Mario Bros. 2)|World Star]], the final special world which is unlocked after beating Bowser himself with at least 90 [[Star Coin]]s. He behaves the same as his other counterpart in World 6 and becomes '''[[Giant Bowser|Big Dry Bowser]]'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick. ''New Super Mario Bros. 2'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 229.</ref>, which marks the first time Dry Bowser becomes a larger size (excluding the use of a [[Mega Mushroom]] in ''Mario Kart Wii''). The only difference in the two boss battles is that Dry Bowser is faster than Bowser, can toss bones instead of sledgehammers at Mario, can spew blue [[Fireball]]s instead of orange ones, is immune to fireballs, and the platforms are smaller. Unlike the original battle, neither Princess Peach nor her cage appear.

Dry Bowser's [[emblem]] is also used as the icon for the [[Impossible Pack]], a downloadable course pack for [[Coin Rush]] mode, though he does not appear in any of its levels.
