10 Video Game Douchebags You Can’t Help But Love

9. Bowser €“ Mario Series

Why He€™s A Douche: If he€™s not kidnapping Princess Peach, which he does more often than you or I go pee, he€™s plotting some dastardly scheme, throwing fiery temper tantrums or otherwise being a giant, green-shelled douche to the best of his ability. It€™s never really indicated what his plans for the Princess are, and they€™re usually quelled quick enough by a certain Italian plumber, but you can be sure, if there€™s trouble afoot in the Mushroom Kingdom, Bowser is usually somewhere at the epicentre. Why You Love Him: Even though he is technically a bad guy, he€™s been the focal point of a few different games €“ Bowser€™s Inside Story, to name one €“ and owing to the fact that most of us grew up knowing him, there€™s a special place in our collective heart for him. That and I suspect that underneath the angry, fire-spitting exterior is a scared little Koopa that more than anything needs a big hug and a sympathetic ear.
