Bowser Pop is a Bowser Jr. minigame in Mario Party 9. The mechanics of this game are similar to Buddy Bounce, as well as Cashapult from Mario Party 6.

Introduction

Two players alternate jumping on the seesaw for three jumps each.

Gameplay

The pair must try to pop all eight balloons, and then pop Bowser Jr.'s balloon as well. The more consecutive jumps that the players make on the seesaw, the higher they will bounce. After the first eight balloons are popped, they will get an additional ten seconds and Bowser Jr. appears on a moving balloon. Players must now pop this last balloon to win.

In-game text

• Rules – "Use the seesaw to launch you and your teammate into the air, and pop all of Bowser Jr.'s balloons."
• Controls – "Hold the Wii Remote sideways. Press to move and to get on the seesaw while on the ground. The player on the seesaw can press to move it left or right."
