- “Bwa ha ha! I'm no ordinary Goomba... I am Goomboss, the great Goomba, the grand poo-bah Goomba. That Mario always stomped on us. But now, the tables have turned! I locked him in a room. I bet he's crying like a baby. I have no business with you, so scram! There's no way a prehistoric wimp like you could beat my stupendous stomps!”
- —Goomboss, Super Mario 64 DS
Goomboss (also known as the Goomba King) is one of the first bosses Mario and Goombario fight in Paper Mario.
He is accompanied by Red Goomba and Blue Goomba. The easiest way of defeating him is to hit the Goomnut Tree to make Goomnuts fall on him, doing three damage. Originally, he was an ordinary little Goomba, but Bowser used the Star Rod to make him a king (which also greatly increased his size) under the conditions that he would assist Bowser later on.
After Mario defeats the Goomba King and his lieutenants, Red Goomba and Blue Goomba, Kammy Koopa is secretly observing the battle. She reports back to Bowser, who is furious at the defeat and also yells "I only used the Star Rod to make him to make a king because he begged me to!"
In the ending parade of Paper Mario, Red and Blue Goomba are trying to get the Goomba King out of a tree. He then falls out, and dizzily wobbles off the screen, followed by the Goomba Bros.
He also appeared in Super Mario 64 DS. Yoshi had to defeat him by eating Goombas and spitting them back at him in order to win back Mario's key to use him in the game.
In the missions section of Mario Kart DS, Toad must complete three laps of the Baby Park course before the Goomboss does. After each lap, Goomboss becomes bigger and bigger, but he has to stop for a few seconds to grow, giving Toad 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, he will lose one of his three balloons. If Toad loses all three balloons, he will fail the mission. Occasionally, Goomboss will throw a Mushroom instead of a Goomba, allowing Toad to get a boost of speed. Additionally, on the third lap, Goomboss will cheat and Jump over the center divider, improving his chances of winning. If Toad is in front of Goomboss, the Goomba King will not stop to toss Goombas but will run as fast as he can to catch up.
It is noted that he is one of the only Paper Mario characters returning to Mario games with the exception of the Star Spirits in Mario Party 5.
