    I imagine the man is quite tired of the jokes by now.

    Anyone know if Bowser has a spouse? I hope he calls her Peach, or at the very least Princess.

    I bet this guy started at Nintendo as sort of a tonuge in cheek joke.

    The recruiter said "oh look, this guys name is Bowser, let hire him!"

    Then he slowly rose through the rank because of the ironic nature of his name. They always expected him to eventually move on or fuck up. Its now 2019 and the company doesn't quite know how Bowser rose through the ranks or even still has a job but he is next in line. Bowser is now the president of Nintendo, long live the king!

    If it comes out that this guy is actually the video game Bowser who figured out how to cross dimensions I would believe it.

    Bowser, the gaming character, is more likeable then the fat Italian stereotype
