* There's yet another deliciously sinister-sounding track for [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azV4SBig8uI Bowser's Castle]], complete with MusicalNod to the castle theme from ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros'' at the very beginning. It has the brutality and maliciousness of the other Bowser themes, but it seems to also display feelings of sadness and anger, representing a not usually seen side of Bowser: the lonely side.

Using two or more of boldface, italics, or capital letters outside dialogue quotes is more emphasis than needed. It\'s possible to convey emphasis without engaging in the text equivalent of SHOUTING AT FULL VOLUME.
