Mouser



Mouser is a large mouse who throws bombs in Super Mario Bros. 2 and Super Mario Advance. Mouser is the last boss in Worlds 1, 3, and 5. When the game was re-released as Super Mario Advance, the addition of Robirdo as the boss of World 3 moved the second battle with Mouser to World 6-3, replacing the second battle with Triclyde.

Although Mouser was not featured in another Mario game for many years, he has played a big part in the game's marketing. He was a semi-regular on The Super Mario Bros. Super Show, which cast him as Bowser's right-hand minion. John Stocker provided the voice for Mouser, who spoke with a German accent in the series.

Mouser also occasionally appeared in the Super Mario Bros. comic books, which provided a backstory for him. According to the story "A Mouser in the Houser", Mouser was the king of a peaceful race of mice (all of whom looked just like him) living in the tunnels of the Mushroom Kingdom. But he was corrupted by Bowser, and as a result, his now-leaderless subjects now steal vegetables for food. Interestingly, Mouser himself was not as much of a major character in the comics as he was in the cartoon.

Mousers did make a semi-comeback in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island for the SNES. A probable sub-species are the Little Mousers. They were later used again in Paper Mario.

Mouser recently made a comeback in Mario Party Advance as the boss of the Duel Tower, although this Mouser resembled a blue Squeek/Little Mouser and only has a minor resemblance to Mouser.
