In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', he was originally an ordinary Goomba, but [[Bowser]] used the [[Star Rod (Paper Mario)|Star Rod]] to make him a king (which also greatly increased his size) under the conditions that he would assist Bowser later on. He is first seen when the Goomba Bros. come to his fort wailing about their defeat to Mario. He lets them in his fort, and when Mario comes by, he has a short conversation with him and then engages him in battle along with his minions. | In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', he was originally an ordinary Goomba, but [[Bowser]] used the [[Star Rod (Paper Mario)|Star Rod]] to make him a king (which also greatly increased his size) under the conditions that he would assist Bowser later on.

The Goomba King reappears as a boss in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', now called Goomboss. He is fought within the battle arena in [[Goomboss Battle]], which can be reached after eight [[Power Star]]s are collected.

He is fought within the battle arena in [[Goomboss Battle]], which can be reached after eight [[Power Star]]s are collected. In order to defeat him as [[Yoshi]], the player must eat [[Goomba]]s and spit them back at him in the form of an egg to win back [[Mario's Key]] in order to unlock him as a playable character in the game. However, Goomboss starts getting bigger, faster, redder, and angrier after every hit and also gains more Goomba followers. He needs to be hit three times in order to admit defeat. When returning to fight him once again as Mario, [[Luigi]], or [[Wario]], the player can kick Goomboss in his face or back and obtain a Super Mushroom. Using it and attacking him while under its influence is not required to defeat him; the player can just punch the Goombas into him to damage him. After he is defeated, Yoshi gets Mario's Key, which is used to unlock Mario. This appearance also proves that Goomboss knows Luigi, but he does not know Wario. Also, when Goomboss is hit, every normal Goomba runs up to him, as if worried. He sometimes even tramples his own Goombas. When the player plays as Yoshi, the Goombas spawn behind Goomboss, while for the other player characters, the Goombas spawn in front of him at first and can spawn in front of him and behind him later in the fight. | ||

Goomboss reappears in the third level of the Mission Mode in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', where he appears as a boss, where the player, playing as [[Toad]] must complete three laps of the {{classic-link|GCN|Baby Park}} course before Goomboss does. After each lap, Goomboss becomes bigger and angrier, but he has to stop for a few seconds to grow, giving the player a chance to pass him. Another chance to pass him is when he stops to throw one [[Goomba]] on the first lap; one or three Goombas on the second lap; or one, three, or five Goombas on the third lap. If Toad hits a Goomba, the player will lose one of their three balloons, and if the player loses all three balloons, they will fail the mission, although the player will not lose a balloon if Toad hits Goomboss. Occasionally, Goomboss will throw a [[Mushroom]] instead of a Goomba, allowing the player to get a boost of speed.

Occasionally, Goomboss will throw a [[Mushroom]] instead of a Goomba to fool the player, allowing the player to get a boost of speed. Additionally, on the third lap, Goomboss will cheat by [[Hop (move)|hop]]ping over the center divider, improving his chances of winning. If the player is in front of Goomboss, he will not stop to toss Goombas, but will run faster so he can catch up. | ||
