Robo Land is a large, futuristic city made up of tall, metal buildings and elevated walkways, located somewhere near theMushroom Kingdom. Robots appear to be the main inhabitants of this land, although it can be assumed that there are humans living there as well, as at least one resident,Dr. Nerdnick, is a human himself. On the elevated walkways of Robo Land are tunnels leading down to the lower levels and into the sewers. Dr. Nerdnick's workshop is also located somewhere within Robo Land. At least one junkyard is also located somewhere in the city.
History[edit]
Dr. Nerdnick is an established inventor living in Robo Land, where he works on his inventions alongside his aide,Bunsen. At some point,King Koopa finds Dr. Nerdnick and convinces him to build him arobo-suit. Not knowing much about King Koopa, Dr. Nerdnick goes ahead and builds the suit for him. With his new robo-suit, King Koopa becomesRobo Koopa and begins to terrorize Robo Land, destroying entire buildings at his leisure.
Bunsen contactsPrincess Toadstool about Robo Koopa, and asks for her to come to the rescue withMario,Luigi, andToad. The group arrives, and is nearly defeated by Robo Koopa soon after, but Bunsen comes to their rescue by reprogramming Robo Koopa's robo-suit. Although this results in the destruction of a building, Robo Koopa is forced to retreat, while Bunsen leads Mario's group to Dr. Nerdnick's workshop, where he is being held prisoner.
Bunsen manages to free Dr. Nerdnick while Mario's group distracts the robot guards, but Robo Koopa appears and ultimately captures Princess Toadstool and Toad. Robo Koopa then chases the others through Robo Land, and proceeds to crush them with a transformer. Mario and Luigi stall the transformer with water from a fire hydrant, and escape to a junkyard, while Robo Koopa is electrocuted.
At the junkyard, Dr. Nerdnick assembles thePlumbinator for Mario and Luigi, so that the two can stand a chance against Robo Koopa during their next encounter. Shortly after the Plumbinator is built, Robo Koopa approaches it, and is challenged to a fight.
Robo Koopa fights the Plumbinator, and after destroying a few more buildings, he succeeds in destroying the Plumbinator itself by knocking it off a rooftop and onto a walkway. Robo Koopa then has Mario, Dr. Nerdnick, and Bunsen cornered, but Dr. Nerdnick tricks Robo Koopa into pushing his suit's ejector seat button, which sends King Koopa flying out of the suit and into the sky.
