Bowser Bomb (Mario Party 2)
The Bowser Bomb is an item in Mario Party 2 and is obtainable only in item minigames. Once obtained, the character reacts in a different manner, not like when receiving another item (complete with the announcer saying "Got Item?" in a confused tone, as opposed to the usual cheerful "Got Item!" with an exclamation). Unlike the other items, the Bowser Bomb activates automatically at the end of the turn before the Minigame event, giving opportunity to Bowser and Koopa Kid's turn. Koopa Kid will turn into Bowser and roll three Dice Blocks, making way around the board from his current location (a former Star Space). If Bowser meets a player, he steals all of his or her Coins. After his turn, Bowser simply disappears.
Bowser's costumes also depended the board where took place on.

Trivia
- This is Donkey Kong's favorite item despite being classified as a bad item. According to the Mario Party 2 manual and character selection screen, this is because Donkey Kong thinks he can take down Bowser in a fight.
