Ōsama (Japanese: 王様,[1] meaning "King") is the king of the dream world ofSubcon. His sole appearance is inBS Super Mario USA, in which he is solely referred to by his kingly title in both dialogue and the closing credits, with no proper name ever being given.

Ōsama rules Subcon peacefully along with many of the fairies also known asSubcons, although he himself is human, as ishis right-hand man. His world was attacked by the8 bits, led byWart, in bothSuper Mario Bros. 2 and its pseudo-sequel,BS Super Mario USA, although the king appeared only in the latter game.

History[edit]

BS Super Mario USA[edit]

After their defeat in the first game, Wart and his cronies escaped to another dream realm and laid low for some time, before returning to Subcon once again. This prompts Ōsama to callMario,Luigi,Princess Peach, andToad back to Subcon using the power of the stars.

While Mario and the others battle Wart's army, images of the main characters, both heroic and villainous, appear on screen, delivering commentary and assisting the player on their quest. Like the other characters, Ōsama can either cause earthquakes like aPOW Block, allow characters to make heavy stomps on the ground, transform Mario into hisinvincible form, destroy all enemies of the screen's range, or givebombs to him.
