“Well? So? What do you think? Incredible, isn't it? This is my newest weapon: the Koopa Cruiser!”

—Bowser,Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

TheKoopa Cruiser isBowser's personalairship that is used inMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga,Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, andMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions.

History[edit]

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga /Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions[edit]

Bowser, Mario and Luigi on the deck of the Koopa Cruiser.

InMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, the Koopa Cruiser was used to transportMario,Luigi, Bowser and theBowser Baddies to theBeanbean Kingdom while the Mario Bros. and Bowser were temporarily working together to regainPrincess Peach's voice fromCackletta. After Bowser takes Luigi along on the journey, an arm from the machine takes him inside, and Mario soon joins him inside (even though he was on top of the deck the whole time). Aboard the cruiser, the Mario Bros. have their passport photos taken by a Koopaphotographer in order to cross the border. The Cruiser'sPinch Crane takes Luigi to above deck where he is later joined by his brother. Above deck, the Mario Bros. and Bowser confront Cackletta after catching up to her where they are introduced to her henchmanFawful. After the battle against Fawful, he summons aVacuum Helmet and uses it to shoot fireballs at the Koopa Cruiser, heavily damaging it and causing it to crash down toStardust Fields. If the Mario Bros. speak to the battered crew of Koopas, one of them says that they had not finished paying it off.

Bowletta, Fawful and Luigi (disguised as Peach) inside thecockpit of the poorly-repaired Koopa Cruiser.

The Cruiser is later used byBowletta and Fawful; it is still heavily damaged, but repaired just enough to be functional. The evil duo kidnapped Princess Peach (who turned out to be Luigi in disguise) and theBeanstar in order to awaken it using the princess's voice. Their attempt was unsuccessful because Luigi stalled them with help from the Koopa Cruiser'sPinch Crane and managed to not only escape but also returned the Beanstar toBeanbean Castle.

InMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, the role of the Koopa Cruiser retains its role from the original game, but is expanded upon inMinion Quest: The Search for Bowser. At the start of the mode, the Koopa Cruiser crashes, separating Bowser's minions. After theTeehee Valley missions are completed, theLakitu finds the ruined Koopa Cruiser inJoke's End during the missionGather the Cruiser Parts!. The minions to search the area for replacement parts, and get it repaired by the time of the missionReturn of the Koopa Cruiser, thoughRoy Koopa battles the minions after it is fixed. InThe Trio's Last Stand,Private Goomp,Corporal Paraplonk, andSergeant Guy place a bomb on the Koopa Cruiser, and they must be defeated to deactivate it. The minions then use the Koopa Cruiser to reachBowser's Castle. Afterward, when Captain Goomba sees Bowser in a present attached to Peach's plane and wonders what to do, Captain Boo mentions that flying after it is impossible since they don’t have the Koopa Cruiser anymore, implying it was blown up along with Bowser's Castle.

“Time to show thesealien jerks what the Koopa Cruiser can do!”

—Baby Bowser,Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

InMario & Luigi: Partners in Time, another Koopa Cruiser appears, which is used to evacuateBaby Bowser,Baby Mario,Baby Luigi,Baby Peach and theyoung Toadsworth fromPeach's Castle after it was attacked byShroob saucers. The saucers later attacked the cruiser while it was in the air, causing Baby Mario to panic and Baby Luigi and Baby Peach to cry, forcing it to drop altitude overHollijolli Village. Baby Bowser is coaxed into rescuing Mario and Luigi from theShroobs and the adult brothers are brought aboard. As the cruiser flies over Peach's Castle, which had been captured by the Shroobs and was then calledShroob Castle,Princess Shroob launched aShroob missile that shot down the cruiser sending it crashing intoBaby Bowser's Castle.

It is unknown whether this Koopa Cruiser is the same as the one inMario & Luigi: Superstar Saga; Bowser calls the latter one a "new weapon", suggesting it was built from scratch. It has the ability to fire spiked cannonballs, but quickly ran out of ammo just before the Shroob missile strikes it.

The player cannot openStuffwell while on the Koopa Cruiser.
