===''Mario's Discovery'' series===
====''Mario is Missing!''====
Bowser is the main antagonist of ''Mario is Missing!'' He plans to purchase multiple hair dryers to melt [[Antarctica]], which would therefore flood the planet. Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi set out to stop Bowser, although when Mario is kidnapped, forcing Luigi to embark on a journey to rescue him. The group manages to thwart Bowser's plan.
While the premise is identical between the different versions of ''Mario is Missing!'', the events unfold slightly differently. In the main PC release, for example, there is a scene at the start where Luigi stays with Yoshi outside of Bowser's Castle, since he is too scared to go inside, but his journey to rescue Mario begins after Bowser tricks Mario by disguising himself as a butler, giving Mario candy, and then catching him into a net. In the ending of the PC version, there is a comical scene of Luigi removing Bowser's Shell, leaving Bowser embarrassed.
====''Mario's Time Machine''====
Bowser is the main antagonist of ''Mario's Time Machine''. Bowser built a time machine known as the Timulator so that he could travel through various time periods and steal historic artifacts to put into his own museum. In the process, this would drastically affect the course of history. Mario uses the Timulator to return the artifacts to their respective time periods and thwarted Bowser's scheme, preventing history from being changed.
===''Hotel Mario''===
Bowser is the main antagonist of ''Hotel Mario''. He is first seen in the opening cutscene, letting out a menacing laugh as Mario and Luigi enter the Mushroom Kingdom on their way to have a picnic with Princess Toadstool. Mario finds a note from Bowser, stating that he and the Koopalings have conquered the Mushroom Kingdom and made Princess Toadstool a "permanent guest" in one of the seven Koopa hotels.
Bowser is the final boss, and he is fought in his own hotel, Bowser's Seizures Palace Hotel, after Iggy Koopa is defeated. Mario and Luigi rescue the Princess and thwart Bowser's scheme once more.
===''Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars''===
In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', Bowser starts off with his usual role of kidnapping Princess Toadstool to his castle (named "Bowser's Keep" in this game). Later, a giant sword named Exor crashes into Bowser's Keep, separating Mario, the Princess, and Bowser and interrupting their usual conflict of Mario saving the Princess from Bowser.
By the time Bowser made it to Booster Tower, he agreed to help Mario until he could get his castle back from Exor and the main villain group, the Smithy Gang.

====''Mario Party''====
Since the first game, ''Mario Party'', Bowser has frequently had the role of an antagonist in the ''Mario Party'' series.

====''Mario Party 2''====
In the Story mode of ''Mario Party 2'', Bowser took over Mario Land and nearby lands. The characters competed to beat Bowser the fastest in order to be the "Super Star." Bowser eventually lost control over all but his own land, Bowser Land, which he desperately sought to keep, but the "Super Star" character used the stars they obtained to defeat him.
====''Mario Party 3''====
In the Story mode of ''Mario Party 3'', Bowser tries to become a Super Star by collecting the seven Star Stamps, but is unsuccessful due to the efforts of the player's character. At one point, Bowser tries to steal the Mischief Star Stamp, but realized that Waluigi had stolen it. At this point, Bowser's role of being the antagonist is fulfilled by Waluigi instead, and when Bowser tries to confront Waluigi, he quickly defeats Bowser.
