Bowser Jr.'s First Game Show Appearance

It's a beautiful day at Bowser's Castle where Bowser Jr. is painting a picture when suddenly, he saw something on TV. Jr. smiled and said, "Wow! It's the Mushroom Kingdom's most popular quiz show The Money Ladder and it's starting right now. Today, Amy Koopa is going for 100,000 coins in the final question and if she gets it right, she'll win the game. Let's see what happens, shall we?"

So Junior went to the television and began watching the show.

After a half hour, the show says, "If you would like to be a contestant on The Money Ladder, just give us a call. We'll be waiting!"

Bowser Jr. smiled and said, "Wow! If I could be on the show, then I'll win up to 100,000 coins just like how Amy did on today's episode. Well, let's call the show!"

So Junior picked up the phone and called the show for a chance to be a player. After a few minutes, he said, "I'm in! I'm going to The Money Ladder tomorrow! Looks like I'm going to rack up 100,000 coins in one episode. Well then, let's keep on painting because tomorrow, it's game time!"

So Jr. continued on with his painting and began preparing for tomorrow's game.

The next day, Bowser Jr. woke up and said, "Well, this is it! Today is the day that I'll be winning 100,000 coins on my favorite game show The Money Ladder! Now all I need is the Bowser Cannon and I'll be on my way to Mushroom City! Well, let's do it!"

So Bowser Jr. ran to the Bowser Cannon and he set the target for Mushroom City. When everything is all set, he hopped in the cannon and said, "OK! The target is locked and it looks like I'm all set to play my favorite game! Well, here goes! Bowser Cannon... FIRE!"

With the word shouted, the cannon fired and out came Bowser Jr. spinning in his shell as he prepares for his first appearance on The Money Ladder.

After a few minutes, Bowser Jr. has made it to his destination, Mushroom City. He said, "Well, here I am! Mushroom City Studios. Now then, let's go win some coins on The Money Ladder because... IT'S GAME TIME!"

So Jr. ran to the studios and after a few minutes of preparations, it's game time.

Just then, the crowd cheered as the voice said, "And now from the studios in Mushroom City, it's time for everyone's favorite quiz game, The Money Ladder! And now, here's the star of our show! The quiz king himself, Chuck Quizmo!"

Then Chuck appeared from the curtain as the crowd cheered for him. Then he said, "Thank you! Hello everyone and welcome to the show. Today, one player could win up to 100,000 coins by climbing up The Money Ladder. Now, let's meet our contestant for today! He is the son of the Koopa King and loves to play sports with his dad. Ladies and gentlemen, here he is! The Koopa Prince... BOWSER JR.!"

Just then, Bowser Jr. came on stage as the crowd cheered for him. Then Chuck said, "Welcome to the show, Jr."

"Thank you for having me on your show today. I'm so glad to be here for a chance to win up to 100,000 coins." Jr. replied.

"I see. So, tell me more about yourself." Chuck said to him.

"Well I'm a Koopa Prince hailing from Bowser's Castle and I love to play sports with my dad. I'm a professional athlete in sporting events and I help my dad in various plots to take over the Mushroom Kingdom. My hobbies including painting and reading." Jr. replied as he introduced himself.

"Wow! You're good at painting with your brush. Right?"

"That's right, Chuck. I use my paintbrush to do all of these things." Jr. said.

"Well, let's see what you could do in this game because it's time to play the game. Now here are the rules. Each question on the ladder has a coin value and for each question you answer correctly, you'll earn coins. If you could answer all ten questions correctly, then you'll win 100,000 coins!" Chuck said as he told the rules of the game, "But if you give me a wrong answer or if you don't answer within the time limit, then it's game over. You got that?"

"Got it, Chuck!" Bowser Jr. said with a smile.

"OK then! Now that everything is all set, it is time to get this game started so Bowser Jr, are you ready?"

"Let's do it, Chuck!" Bowser Jr. replied with a thumbs up.

"Alright then, here we go! Bowser Jr., it's time to climb up The Money Ladder!"

With the words shouted, the game is now underway as the crowd cheered. Then Chuck said, "OK! For the first three questions, you'll have fifteen seconds to answer and the clock won't start until I finish reading the question. With that said, let's start you off with 250 coins. Ready?"

"All set!" Bowser Jr. replied.

"Alright then, here is your first question. In what video game series where the object is to reach the finish line by using various items? You have fifteen seconds starting... now!"

Junior looked at the question and decided to answer right away. He smiled to himself and said, "Chuck, I'm going with Mario Kart!"

"OK then! For 250 coins, is Mario Kart the correct answer?" Chuck said as the first question on the screen turned green. Then he said, "Yes it is! Nice start, Jr."

"Thank you! I'm a professional Mario Kart racer." Jr. replied with a smile as he moved up the ladder.

"Alright then, let's move on to question two which is worth 500 coins and again, you'll have fifteen seconds to answer. Here it comes. On which video game console where you can play the game Super Mario Sunshine?"

The clock started once more and Junior said, "I made my first appearance in this game back in 2002 and with that, I'll say the GameCube!"

"A very good answer and guess what, you're correct again! You now have 500 coins! How do you know that one?" Chuck asked him.

"Because I have one!" Jr. replied with a smile.

"Very good indeed! Now then, you're one answer away from clearing the first level and this question is worth 1,000 coins. Shall we take a look?"

"Yes please." Jr. said.

"OK! The Koopalings debuted in the game Super Mario Bros. in 1989 now tell me, which show did they made their television debut? You have fifteen seconds!"

Junior looked at the clock and thought for a few seconds. When the timer is about to expire, Chuck said, "I need your answer, Junior. Five seconds!"

"I'm going with The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and that is my answer!" Jr. said with a smile as the buzzer went off.

"OK! You got the answer just in time and with that, you've just won 1,000 coins!" Chuck announced as the crowd cheered for Bowser Jr.

Jr. smiled and said, "Thanks, Chuck!"

Then Chuck said, "Well done, Bowser Jr. You've breezed through the first three questions and with that, you are now safe with 1,000 coins! That is yours to keep no matter what happens here. Now, you have decision to make. Will you continue on for a chance to win 10,000 coins, or take the money and run?"

Bowser Jr. smiled and said, "Level up, Chuck! Let's go for more!"

Chuck agreed with him and said, "He's going for it! Alright then! Bowser Jr., it's time to enter level 2!"

Just then, the ladder went up as Chuck said, "Well, here we are at level 2. Now, these next four question will have a time limit of thirty seconds and question four is valued at 1,500 coins. Remember, if time runs out or if you make a mistake in this question, then you'll still leave with 1,000 coins. So, let's start level 2!"

Bowser Jr. smiled to himself as he kept on playing and after six more questions, he has already won 50,000 coins! Now all he needs is the final question and 100,000 coins. Chuck smiled at him and said, "Well, well, well! Bowser Jr., you have finally made it to the final question and currently, you have 50,000 coins! How do you feel?"

"Fantastic! I can't believe I'm just one answer away from winning the game! Looks like I'm feeling lucky." Jr. replied with a smile.

"Well, let's see how lucky you are by answering this final question and for this one, you have one minute to give me your answer. Get it right, and you'll win the game. So Bowser Jr., are you ready for your tenth and final question valued at 100,000 coins?"

"Yes!" Jr. said with a smile.

"Alright then, the final question valued at 100,000 coins is... THIS!"

Then the screen shows the final question as Chuck said, "In the Wii U video game Super Mario 3D World, what is the name of the final level in World Bowser?"

Junior saw the question and said, "Wow! That is a tough one! Do I have to answer now?"

"Of course you may do that because your time starts... NOW!" Chuck said as the timer started.

Junior looked at it and took his time to think about the question.

"Thirty seconds, Junior!" Chuck said to him.

After a few more seconds, Bowser Jr. is ready to answer. He said, "Chuck, I have made my decision!"

Chuck agreed with him and said, "Alright then! With ten seconds left, I'm going to ask you this very important question. Bowser Jr., what is your answer?"

Jr. smiled to himself and said,"Chuck, the final level in World Bowser is... THE GREAT TOWER OF BOWSER LAND!"

Everyone agreed with him and Chuck said, "Alright then! Let's lock in Bowser Jr.'s answer!"

Then the crowd cheered for him as Bowser Jr. has made his final decision. Chuck came to him and said, "Well Bowser Jr., this is it! You are now just seconds away from becoming our champion so, is there anything you would like to say before we reveal your answer?"

"Yes! I just want to say that I had a great time on this show and now, it all comes down to this. One answer separates me from winning the game and if I make a mistake, I'll still leave with 10,000 coins so, let's do it!"

Chuck agreed with him and said, "OK then! Now that everything is out of the way, it is time to reveal the correct answer! Bowser Jr., are you ready?"

"Ready, Chuck!" Jr. replied with a smile.

"Alright then, here we go! Drum roll please!" Chuck said as the drum roll started. It all comes down to this, the final answer of the game.

Chuck smiled to Bowser Jr. and said, "Bowser Jr., you have done a great job so far in this game and now, it all comes down to this final answer! So, for 100,000 coins and the game, the correct answer is..."

As the drum roll grew louder, the crowd grew very silent. Bowser Jr. watched the screen and waited for final answer.

And then...

And then...

The answer turned green, signaling the correct answer. Chuck smiled at him and then, he made the final announcement...

"THE GREAT TOWER OF BOWSER LAND!"

As Chuck revealed the answer to him, Bowser Jr. can't believe it! He has won the game as Chuck said, "Bowser Jr... YOU HAVE WON THE GAME!"

The crowd cheered for him very loudly as Bowser Jr. spun in his shell for his victory spin with confetti falling on him. Then he ran to Chuck and gave him a hug for his victory as the crowd cheered once again.

Chuck smiled and said, "Congratulations, Bowser Jr.! You have just won 100,000 coins! Outstanding job, Jr.!"

"Thank you, Chuck! I'm so glad to be the winner of the game and I felt so happy!" Jr. replied with a victory smile.

"That is indeed a fantastic game that you have played and with that, it gives me great pleasure to present to you with this check for 100,000 coins! Enjoy it, Jr.!" Chuck said as he gave the check to Bowser Jr. for winning the game.

"Thanks, Chuck! My dad is going to be very happy for me when I get home!" Bowser Jr. replied as he held up the check. It has been a perfect game for him.
