Mario crazyness after the jump…<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

At Number 9 we have Wart<\/strong><\/p>\n

This SMB2 Baddy was actually originally named \u201cMamu\u201d in Doki Doki panic but I think it\u2019s good to finally have an accurate representation of a toad slash frog in the Mario series. The official Super Mario Brothers 2 booklet says “Wart is the most mischievous of all in the world of dreams. He created monsters by playing with the dream machine.” Despite having the ability to use magic and curse people Wart lives up to his aforementioned mischievous nature and spits streams of bubbles or water at you. Troll-olololol!<\/p>\n

Sticking with Super Mario Bros 2, at Number 8 \u2013 we have Birdo<\/strong><\/p>\n

When it comes to weird bosses, the introduction of Birdo in Super Mario Bros 2 just about takes the cake. What is this thing? Apparently it\u2019s own species, Birdo in SMB2 takes 3 forms. When she’s pink she shoots eggs, when she’s grey or green she uses fireballs and when she’s red she shoots both. There is just something strange about attacking a creature with it\u2019s own eggs, even if said creature is spitting them at you. Oh well, just give me that damn crystal ball and get out of my way so I can enter this hawk\u2019s head\u2026man this was a weird game when you break it down.<\/p>\n

At Number 7 we have the Master hand from the smash bros series<\/strong><\/p>\n

Somehow this disembodied right handed glove managed to bring it\u2019s collection of Nintendo toys to life and then makes them fight to the death. Clearly he has a God complex. If that wasn\u2019t enough this strange Mario boss even makes you fight him in a place known as the \u201cfinal destination\u201d, pretty ominous\u2026<\/p>\n

\"Master \"Master<\/p>\n

Number 6 Salvo the slime from Yoshi’s Island<\/strong><\/p>\n

Talk about weird Mario bosses! Salvo was a pretty unconventional boss, instead of hurting you by touch or attack, this enlarged slime just kind of tries to push you in a lava pit. I guess he was the first boss you come across in Yoshi\u2019s Island so I guess they have to ease you into it, still a pretty strange boss.<\/p>\n

\"Salvo \"salvo<\/p>\n

Number 5 Biokinton from Super Mario land<\/strong><\/p>\n

Despite looking a bit like Lakitu\u2019s Cloud, this weird 4th<\/sup> boss from the 1989 Gameboy classic is actually an incredibly shy creature whom nobody has seen that just hides in a cloud. If this wasn\u2019t strange enough this boss\u2019 attack is throwing chickens at Mario, as we see in this sprite on the right of screen.<\/p>\n

Number 4 – Tatanga<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sticking with the Gameboy and Super Mario land theme, At number 4 we have Tatanga the Mysterious Spaceman from super Mario land and Super Mario Land 2: 6 golden coins! This guy was the actual boss of Mario Land and returned in the sequel for a more minor role, however this is probably meant to explain some cross over between the 2 games such as Tatanga was keeping Mario Busy so wario could take the castle or whatever. Either way this guy was a weird boss and he was actually the first extra-terrestrial main villain to appear in the Mario series!<\/p>\n

\"Tatanga\" \"Tatanga \"Tatanga<\/p>\n

Number 3 \u2013 Chef Torte<\/strong><\/p>\n

This weird boss hails from Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars! Even though he is an armoured koopa he is also supposedly one of the greatest chefs in the world that takes his job a little too seriously. So seriously in fact that when Mario ruins a wedding he was commissioned to make a cake for he losses it and starts to fight Mario by hilariously slapping his allies as his attack! On top of this weird scenario this boss isn\u2019t actually killable in the game and instead you have to attack his masterpiece of a cake known as Bundt, which comes alive and scares the chef away, leaving you to fight a magical cake.<\/p>\n

\"Bundt \"chef \"chef<\/p>\n

Number 2 \u2013 Sorbetti from Super Mario Galaxy 2<\/strong><\/p>\n

I guess by boss standards this strange planet slash snowman from Freezy Flake Galaxy is almost a normal boss\u2026except that he is essentially a snowman head with a bright red vulnerable nose whose only form of attack is rolling around. On a side note he also looks a lot like tap tap from Yoshi\u2019s Island\u2026but you decide.<\/p>\n

\"Sorbetti \"Sorbetti \"Sorbetti<\/p>\n

And finally at Number 1 of our Super Weird Super Mario Bosses list \u2013 Eely-Mouth from Super Mario Sunshine!<\/strong><\/p>\n

If ever there was a strange Mario boss, this thing is it. For starters, although referred to as male it appears that this eel has both a masculine and a feminine side combined, with 2 sets of eyes. If this wasn\u2019t weird enough, it is your job to clean this eels teeth because it\u2019s gingivitis had been the cause of the wide spread pollution in the area! I really wonder if this entire game was now based off a bad dental experience of one of the creators\u2026<\/p>\n
