The same guide also stated that Ludwig is Bowser's second in command, although this has since been supplanted by characters like Kammy Koopa, Kamek, and Bowser Jr., as well as English versions of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and the European version of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U stating that Larry leads the Koopalings (though this is possibly due to a mistranslation). This was their last appearance of the Koopalings for several years. The Koopalings seem to be replaced by Bowser Jr. in later games, until they appear together in New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

For Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U, a GameFAQs message board topic titled "Day 11 - Those ancient (Technically 26 year old) Koopalings! Oddly, their sprites in Super Mario World and the Super Mario Bros. 3 remake in Super Mario All-Stars gave them all white hair and coloration that did not match their artwork, carrying over from the original, inaccurate color palette from the NES. The Koopalings first appeared as bosses at the end of the first seven worlds in Super Mario Bros. 3, and later reprised their roles similarly in Super Mario World and appeared in multiple spin-off games and other adaptations of the Mario franchise. The magic moves around, like what Wendy does with it. In Bowser's Koopalings, however, this is reversed, with Morton being dim-witted and carefree and Lemmy being sarcastic and rude. Additionally, the last three (Roy, Wendy, and Larry) use a special Time Bob-omb in battle. Here, the Koopalings were ordered by Bowser to use their airships and armies to conquer the various lands of the Mushroom World.

Goldfarb, Ryan Higgins, Ashley Flannegan, Michelle Hippe, and Carlee McManus respectively. Additionally, the game's cast roll uses alternate color palettes for three of the Koopalings: Morton gets a teal palette, the same one applied to the Buzzy Beetles' in-game sprites; Ludwig gets a pinkish-purple palette more appropriate for the shells of Roy and Wendy; and Roy gets a grey palette that would fit Morton's shell. Upon catching up with the Koopaling again, a Magikoopa appears and adds a new element to the battle, such as replacing the floor of Larry's room with one that shifts up and down, giving Lemmy an even larger Wonder Ball, flooding Wendy's room, or even making three platforms in Ludwig's room. His main color representation is purple, although his shell and head were colored lavender-purple in, Lemmy Koopa is depicted as a small, fun-loving child who wields the green magic wand, and has been shown capable of being serious when the situation calls for it.

Upon catching up with the Koopalings again, Kamek will appear and add a new element to the battle, such as replacing the floor of Larry's room with one that shifts up and down, or giving Lemmy an even larger ball than before. When defeated in battle, the Koopaling then jumps away after their defeat, much like Bowser Jr. in the original New Super Mario Bros., setting up a rematch at the Castle at the end of the world.

They were also willing to work with Bowser's son, Bowser Jr., and had little problem with him, as implied by Roy Koopa briefly calling him squirt (Young Master in the Japanese version) and overall talking to him in a casual nature. However, the cartoons are considered non-canonical. Immediately after being summoned, they make enemies flee by running into them. Mario, Luigi and Paper Mario encounter them at specific points throughout the adventure, which is again unlike in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, where they were only encountered during the end of the game before the final fights with Fawful and Cackletta. They use the Koopa Clown Car to kidnap Princess Peach, as seen in the intro, where Mario and Luigi fly around for Coins while the Koopalings capture the Princess. Most re-releases and remakes of this game as well as republications of the game's story keep this detail intact in Japan, with the Wii Virtual Console manual omitting direct references to the Koopalings being Bowser's kids and the Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros. using a less strong statement than the one found in the original manual retained only in the French translation, while the German and Spanish translations of said book completely omit that the Koopalings are siblings and Bowser's children. As Larry is the first Koopaling of the game, while Ludwig is the last, it is strongly implied that all seven Koopalings are fought in order from youngest to oldest: Larry Koopa, Morton Koopa Jr, Wendy O.

Also, the player is not able to part ways with any of the Koopalings, nor can they be depowered. The voice clips are again the ones recorded for Mario Kart 8, and they are used in the Bowser Jr.'s Journey mode of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, in which the Koopalings have spoken dialogue. Originally, Ludwig, Morton, and Lemmy's eyes were merely black dots, however the former two have since been shown to have thin dark grey irises. After the credits, they are shown helping Bowser get back up (with the exception of Larry, who is shown just arriving, exhausted, and passing out before being gestured by Bowser Jr. to get up). For example, Roy in the North American localizations was depicted in a manner similar to a bully (which also earned him the name "Bully" in the DIC cartoons), but the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 3 instruction booklet and Super Mario Advance 4 e-Reader cards give him a calm and collected demeanor.

Some Koopalings even wear clothes as well. After Mario and Luigi safely landed, the Koopalings crash onto the floor, making the Mario Bros. lose their Super Leaves.

In addition, the battles with the Koopalings varied slightly from the game: Iggy has a horde of Koopa Troopas, Rexes, and Chargin' Chucks attack the Mario Bros., and later summons Koopa Paratroopas and Monty Moles before Yoshi takes care of them, forcing him to flee; Lemmy had blocked the route to him with a series of switches that operate a bridge, with Mario effortlessly knocking him aside when he solved the puzzle; Wendy produces copies of herself and then attempts to attack Mario while he's confused, but Mario stepped aside and leaves her dangling over the lava pit; and the others ganged up on Mario and Luigi shortly afterward, with Roy and Morton being stomped on and then getting back up, only to be swatted away with the other Koopalings by Mario's Cape Feather.
