About

I make videos on origin stories and a variety of other ridiculous gaming content. I also predicted the original Sonic Movie Trailer.

Video Description

Bowser's Army, or the Koopa Troop, is filled with all kinds of species like Goomba, Koopa Troopas, Piranha Plants and Boo. But where did these concepts for Mario's enemies come from? This video won't cover every enemy in the Super Mario franchise but we'll take a look at the origins of many of Bowser's minions and the regional differences between them. Welcome to Origin Oracle, I am TheMentok. Grab a snack and enjoy the next video in my Mario series.
