Did you ever notice that there is a star-shaped scar over one or Morton Koopa Jr's eyes?  Where did it come from?  That is what we are going to find out. Clue 1 - The Games: In the games Morton has appeared in the scar has appeared in only the Super Mario Allstars version of SMB3.  What does that mean?. Clue 2 - Topsy Turvey???:   Super Mario Bros 3 Super Mario World Above are two images of Morton Koopa Jr.  Notice how the scar suddenly moves from the left side of Morton's face in the SMB3 image to the right side in the SMW image.  Is is a continuity error on Nintendo's behalf or is their some secret behind this switcheroo. Where did Morton's Scar come from?  Here is what you thought: Name: Brandon Email: Thoughts: Maby he was walking onenight, a shoting star smashed in the left side of his face. Then it probably got better. Then he walked again at night the same thing happend, but on the right side.It hit him on the head harder,the star fell off and probably didn\'t heel. Name: Fightin jish Email: nintendoholic6@hotmail.com Thoughts: maybe he used some neosporin on the left one when he got into a bar fight and got a new one and his CVS closed down Name: Bryan Fisher Email: Bluewarrior2006@comcast.net Thoughts: That is not a scar at all it\'s a birthmark! Name: Gordon Hemsley Email: GPHemsley@aol.com Thoughts: Maybe Morton wears a tinted plastic mask with a star shape cut out of it. The mask he had in SMB3 had the star over his left eye, but when he was beaten, it got destroyed. He ordered a new one for SMW, but the factory messed up and put the star on the right side instead. Name: Justin Minasian Email: philtheextraguy@mmwc.tk Thoughts: First, he painted it on, so he thought it was cool, and then he sucked up some courage to get a star, heat it up, and smother it on his eye. it doesn\'t make much sence.. but hey, it could happen... Name: Scott Seals Email: bonafidebeliever03@hotmail.com Thoughts: The scar could be just birthmark, and the switch may be a continuity error, if it is not a violation of continuity, then it is probably just some sort of add-on, like a sticker, fake tattoo, or make-up, that Morton Kooper Jr. just likes to wear to be cool. Name: Raptar Email: raptar599@msn.com Thoughts: Maybe Bowser punched him alongside the head with those claws for losing to Mario the first time. Perhaps it came from Mario himself. (Hey, shoes can leave strange injuries) Or maybe even... Nintendo didn\'t think to give him one until after SMB3 was done. Name: I LIKE CAPS LOCK Email: I DON\'T WANT TO TELL YOU Thoughts: HE MADE TOAD MAD IN MARIO PARTY AND TOAD THREW THE SUPERSTAR AT HIM. Name: Melissa Mario Sister Email: fauna_koopa@koopastar.zzn.com Thoughts: I think the scar switching was a continuity error. Most people draw the scar on the right side of his face anyway, as most people are right-handed, so that\'s why the SMW picture switched the scar. Looks better there, anyway. Name: Introbulus Email: jamesraskopf@msn.com Thoughts: After some carefully thoght-out deducing and highly complex thought, I have come to the conclusion that, Mr. Morton Koopa junior, ALWAYS HAD A SCAR! Yes, there is nothing wierd about the scar, it\'s just something the programmers didn\'t program proprerly the first time around! It happens all the time. Lazy programmers... Name: Foxy McCloud Email: LunaStarLight13@aol.com Thoughts: One day, When Morton was a young boy, there was a evil plummer. The plummer name was Marivort (Call him you-know-who.) You-Know-Who was entering the Koopa\'s house. He killed Mrs. Myrtle Koopa and Mr. James Koopa. You-know-who went to young Morton. He took out his plunger, the same one that he use to kill his parents, and met his downfall. The scar was a evil curse. Morton Koopa now attends Goomwarts of KoopaKract and Goombery. He has two best friends. Mallow (Not puff boy) Who is born to a family of Wizardz, and Hermoney. Name: Phataz Email: ahrs@juno.com Thoughts: Bowser kicked Morton face for not murdering Mario and Luigi. Name: The West Virginian Email: bilica@prodigy.net Thoughts: It\'s not a scar. It\'s war paint. He applies it before each battle to look tough. I think it makes him look like a KISS wannabe. Name: Lemmy Koopa Email: OOLemmy@aol.com Thoughts: Morton\'s \"scar\" isn\'t actually a scar. It\'s paint from one of the Star Balls. You see, after a fresh coat of paint is applied, I, Lemmy Koopa, like to pelt people with my favorite weapon to make sure they\'re still aerodynamic. Morton is bad at dodging. After a while, he washes the paint off, but it usually stays on for a few days after he gets hit with it. Name: Roger North Email: fenrock@webtv.net Thoughts: I think that it is a continuity problem that Morton\'s scar goes from left to right but I have no idea where it came from. Name: Brooser Koopa Email: Thoughts: One day, Morton was walking along, minding his own business, when suddently, a super star fireball attack, made by...uh, who knows? But anyway, it hit him, and it left a star shaped burn. After it healed, another, more powerful one, came from...uh, no one :cough:, and hit him again. This time, it was so powerful, and cool, that the scar stayed, and he never bothered that...uh...unknown, really cool person....ever again. Well, he should have stopped, but he kept annoying me. I mean, the unknown person. Yeah. Not me. Name: The Shadow Koopa Email: aimee104@earthlink.net Thoughts: Simply a birthmark. And on the switch, probably an error on Nintendo\'s part. Name: Joe Email: GIJoe113@yahoo.com Thoughts: I have two thoughts. Maybe Bowser abused Morton for failing something, and maybe it is a tatoo. The pictures probably are shown with the scar on different sides because one of the images was flipped. Name: HyperGoomba Email: Thoughts: -(Can I give an opinion? Thanks. I think Morton met Mario and raced him. Then Mario\'s red overalls were ripped and Mario Name: HyperGoomba Email: n/a Thoughts: Sorry, interupted. Did something bad, I feel very dumb now. (Pressed wrong key) As me was sayin\', Mario got mad and beat Morton over the left eye with some kind of star. After that Koopas took over the world and Morton got Koopahara and said, \'gee, i\'ll get that plumber for giving me a star scar.\' and he tried all the time but didn\'t so he decided to get a life and move to Toad Town, where he became a wizard named Merlon by putting on a robe and hiding his wand up the sleeve. Why does he help Mario if he\'s mad at Mario then? He thought that he wouldn\'t get beat up so much. As for the switching, it\'s just an illustration and is therefore insignificant. By the way, the phrase is \'from where did Morton\'s scar come?\' (couldn\'t hold that in. Sorry. Very very sorry. Apologies.) Name: josh Email: cutman3@cox.net Thoughts: well I think 1.that morton\'s scar came when he was born bowser hit him for no reason and never went away and 2.bowser uesd some kind of magic to make morton\'s scar move to the other side. Name: Ultradudebio Email: ultradudebio@yahoo.som Thoughts: I think a star shaped thwomp (Yes,I know it\'s stupid>) crushed his face, then he got plastic surgery, then the same thing happened, but one the other side of his face. Name: josh Email: cutman3@cox.net Thoughts: sorry that last one was stupid okay then I think for the appearance of the scar that tons of stars hit morton in the first spot then the same thing happend in the other spot. Name: josh Email: cutman3@cox.net Thoughts: sorry that last one was stupid. okay then I think for the appearance of the scar that tons of stars hit morton in the first spot then the same thing happend in the other spot. Name: Orlando Email: Thoughts: Well, It`s either a mutation on his birth, he fell and landed on a star shaped thing or he made it himself. As for the switcheroo it`s probably a mistake by Nintendo. Can`t say anything else Name: Alex Hiller Email: ahiller@attbi.com Thoughts: mabe the scar from SMB 3 healed but he got another scar exactly alike but it was on the other side of his face Name: MAVERICK456812 Email: Thoughts: I think it is a birthmark (it might give him strength or magic powers from Kamek) and the switch is nintendo\'s continuity error Name: Melbirn Email: paulkano106@aol.com Thoughts: obviously the scar was made when a falling star hit him on the face! then eventually the scar went away. then the same thing happened to the other side of his face! Name: melbirn ( this is a better one ) Email: paulkano106@aol.com Thoughts: the SMB3 pic is real and the SMW one is him looking in a mirror, hence, its on the other side! Name: Kirby Lord Email: WOULDN\'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW?!!??!!!??? Thoughts: I think that Morton Koopa Jr.\'s scar came from when I, Imean smeone, (a little pink puffball, to be exact, was flying around on a star, when WHAM! SOMEONE warped dimensions and saw an appetizing, Imean poor defensless target. MORTON KOOPA JR.! SOMEONE dove,I mean his star went out of controll, and BOOM! he got a scar, which he used Neosporin on, and it disappeared. SOMEONE reapeted the process and warped back to popstar. Eh, yeah, whatever..................................CHEESE IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!! YUMMY YUMMY BOW DOWN TO THE ALMIGHTY CHEESE!!!!!!!!!! Name: blade64 Email: alcock@home.com Thoughts: Maybe Nintendo thought it was cool Name: Michael Email: dpjohnston7@msn.com Thoughts: He got the scar from burning his head on a star accidental tripping.When his scar healed kirby and his star smashed him in a crash landing.Kirby continuosly whacked him some time over and over. Name: Zach Bright Email: Ntendopr@aol.com Thoughts: Proably before SMB 3, Bowser was slashing at a picture of Mario when Morton Jr. walked in front of him and Bowser accidently cut him. Name: David Email: D_Left2@hotmail.com Thoughts: Well first of all he got it from playing with the rod in smb3, after getting the scar he descided to get plastic surgery but the doc just happened to be mario so he descided to mess with the poor koopa and removed the scar from one side and coppied it on the other after that he wanted revenge so he attacked in mario world Name: Thomas Walker Email: tom.walker2@ntlworld.com Thoughts: Like everyone else, I think a star smaked into his face when he was young so hard that it gave him a permanent scar (strange both Harry Potter and Morton Kooper Jr Have odd shaped scars) and for Clue 1, I think it is just because SMW didn\'t use enough detail and for clue 2, probaly i must have been an artist\'s mistake. Name: Chibi Mini Moon (hey i like the word chibi) Email: jocie@dp.net Thoughts: Well, you know those Koopa Kids... crazy. Maybe one day they were bored and Lenny decided to see how far he could chuck a Super Star and it hit \'poor\' Morton in the left side of the face, leaving a star mark that eventually healed. After it healed, Lenny got everyone to agree that the star looked good on him but couldn\'t tell directons that great so they just continually abused Morton with Stars and Star-shaped objects until, well, there you have it, \"A star is born!\" They hit him so many times that the scar is there forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and... Name: Koopa Email: Neptune2992@aol.com Thoughts: Morton\'s Scar was their since birth. Name: I\'m Nobody Email: Anonymous@nowhere.unexisting Thoughts: Morton must have gotten his scar when Bowser hit him for no reason. Name: Chupperson Weird Email: chuppersongog@aol.com Thoughts: It\'s most likely a birthmark. And the reason for it switching sides... it\'s an effort by the Koopa Empire to confound and confuse the good guys. Reverse negative. (Or a simple printing mistake and the people didn\'t realize that he wasn\'t symmetrical) Name: Shyguy_Dan Email: Ozzy634@Hotmail.com Thoughts: Morton Koopa snr was still alive when Bowser\'s girlfriend gave birth to Morton Koopa jnr, he was scared that soon both Bowser and his child would be so imapient to rule over Koopa Kingdom that they would kil him. To field half of this problem he took the baby up to Koopa mountain on a very stormy night in the hope a thunderbolt would strike and kill the baby koopa. Unfortunatly, Morton\'s ingenious plan did not go by without a hitch, lightening did strike the baby, but Morton was also in the firing line, Morton was killed while the baby koopa was only slightly injured, hence the scar. And as for the switching, its a continuity error. Name: peach Email: Thoughts: I think Morton had gotten hit in the face with an invincible star and after it healed Mario hit him again on the other eye. That\'s all! Name: justin buck Email: soccorrookie@aol.com Thoughts: maybe mario hit him in the face with a star and it was imprinted in his face and it showed up in smb3 for a special feature to super mario allstars version and for the switching sides maybe one of the pictures were fanart? Name: Steve Email: Drmilk11@yahoo.com Thoughts: I think he paints it on to look tougher, and as for the switching of the side it was on, he might of not been looking in a mirror the second time. Name: Torgo Email: torgo@smbhq.com Thoughts: I think that the reason is because SMB: All Stars was suppose to be more graphically enchanced, so thats why! by the way why do you have a picture saying he has a scar in SMW but then you said its only in SMB3 all stars? Name: Dominic Email: staceymae71@hotmail.co m Thoughts: Maybe when he was born a falling star hit his face Name: Connor Foss Email: connorfoss@attbi.com Thoughts: I think that something very sharp was magnetized to Morton Jr. to make a star shaped scar in 1990 (right after the NES SMB3 and before the SNES and SMW, meaning it would be in the All-Stars version also.) Name: Morton Koopa Jr. Email: xela654@aol.com Thoughts: That\'s not a scar, stupid! It\'s a washable tatoo! I put it on just to look cool. My dad won\'t let me get a real one. Name: Annie B. Email: ani2000@ig.com.br Thoughts: I think that one day, he was practicing star magic. One of the stars of his magic went to the wrong side and hit his eye, hence then the scar. Now, in SMB3 and SMW, he use different magics Name: Ryan Email: staceymae71@hotmail.com Thoughts: He got hit in the face by Bowser Name: Call me meta knight Email: mjj weasel @aol.com Thoughts: The scar is really a tatoo he got to show how tough he is. After SMB3, he had it laser removed and had a new one put on his other side. P.S. What about his apperence in yoshi\'s safari? Name: Mikeguy Email: Mikegeib@Earthlink.net Thoughts: Long ago, Morton Koopa Junior was proving his strength as one of the Koopa kids. He was sent through a large obstical course where he had to prove his strength by mastering it. At one point, he arrived upon a group of gears with sharp edges on them... He simply crawled under them... Suddenly, a machine in the control room went haywire causing the course to self-destruct! The ground fell out, and the sharp gears fell! One was shaped like a star and plunged into his eye\'s space creating a star shape eye around it.... MEANWHILE IN JAPAN... Several programmers were trying to figure out how they were gonna fit the scar into the low-profile technology of NES... So, they made a vow with Shiguru Miyamoto that they would skip several details, but when SNES came out (which they were aware of), they would remake all of the Mario games once and for all! This led to, of course, Super Mario All Stars...BACK IN THE MUSHROOM KINGDOM. In a fit of anger for the terrible deeds of Bowser and the Koopa Kids, Mario and Luigi tried to cast a spell on Morton with the recovered wand in order to make him pay... Although they tried to turn him into a frog, their mediocre magician skills led them to simply mirror his body. Oh well.... And that\'s the way it was... Name: Devan Email: devanchiasson.yahoo.ca Thoughts: I think that he used to be in some sort of cult and was kicked out for being to controlif. As for the sides it was a mistake Name: Rachel Email: Nobodysangel621@aol.com Thoughts: Well, I think that one day between the 2 Mario games, he noticed the scar on his forehead. Then he decided that he wanted to ask Bowser for money to get the scar removed. SO, he got it removed with plastic surgery ( just like Micheal Jackson, but not as horrible looking) Then, one day, Wendy got mad at him and and put a huge 100 dollar bill in front of a rock and Morton crashed his head into the rock when trying to grab the bill Name: Rachel Email: Nobodysangel621@aol.com Thoughts: Well, I think in between the 2 Mario game you have just mentioned, Morton found out he had a scar on his face. So then he asked Bowser to plastic surgery ( not a lot so he don\'t have a Halloween mask, which Micheal Jackson does, on his face. Another day, Wendy got mad because Morton ate all the whipped cream, so she put a picture of a 100 dollar bill on a rock. After she had done this, Morton being the greedy loser he is ran at it and got the scar on his face. Name: Azachu Email: azachu@yahoo.com Thoughts: i think that morton got his scar from mario bros 3, so i\'m basically saying that mario is the cause, and it only appeared in SMW because he was probably trying to hide it from Bowser Name: Kevin from Canada. Email: merritt@canada.com Thoughts: I believe this could be one of 2 things. Morton has always aspired to be a world class mexican wrestler and wears masks. This would explain his \"ring\" presence in SMB3. He may have even designed the battle areas in the airships. 2. Just like needle drugs leave stars Morton may have a cronic star-man addiction leaving scars of this vice on his face.

Name: Raichuqueen Email: Thoughts: If you\'ve played Super Mario World, you\'ll notice that he keeps falling from the ceiling. Anyone who keeps falling from the ceiling is bound to get a scar sooner or later! Either that, or Bowser got mad at his defeats and inflicted it upon him... poor guy... Name: Ludwig Von Koppa Email: www.karthikhawk@home.com Thoughts: Probably like in Harry Potter someone killed his parents but coundn\'t kill him and left him with a scar.That person died did not kill Morton or the other Koppa Kids. Then Bowser adopted them. Name: andrew fimiani Email: Jfimiani@mg mainnet.com Thoughts: I don\'t exactly how or why he got it but here are some reasons:(1,He panted a star on his face.(2, Name: andrew fimiani Email: Jfimiani@mg mainnet.com Thoughts: During a battle with mario, mario had a sword and cut off allof his hair and that scarred him. Name: Chris (Mario fan #1!) Email: Thoughts: Duh!!! Who does he hang around with? BOWSER!!! Who does bowser hate? MARIO!!! Who fights with mario many times? MORTON!!! so lets see. on some adventure we dont know about te got that scar in a battle. as for switching sides. it could be...-------------------------- Name: Chris (Mario fan #1!) Email: Thoughts: Another idea... Do you have a brother or sister. Ypu hit them. they hit you back. try having 7 or 8 who all have sharp claus. you get in one fight and BOOMO. Instant scar. Name: Chris (Mario fan #1!) Email: Thoughts: one more idea, or disproff of one. Ihis SCARR cannot be a birthmark because noone elce in the faimly i dont think Name: Trek Email: Trekmanga@hotmail.com Thoughts: My theories are: #1: He got in a fight with the other Koopa Kids. #2: He was attacked by an enemy earlier in his life(COuld be from a bom omb blowing up in his face to a Chomp biting him.). #3: It\'s a overgrown birthmark. #4: Child Abuse, he was brutally punished. Now as for the scar switching on different sides of his face, my theory is: Magikoopa casted a spell on him obviously for punishment. The spell didn\'t effect him in the way it was originally supposed to and instead switching his scar to the opposite side of his face. (This is the first feedback i\'ve done for mysteries section, i plan on doing another one soon.) Name: ANTICS Email: antics0@hotmail.com Thoughts: A scar? That\'s no scar! That\'s make-up! Nothing leaves a star-shaped scar when it hits someone (well, excepted on Popstar, where EVERYTHING is shaped like a star...) Look at it this way: Morton wants to be popular, but people keeps looking down to him because he just thinks about wedding cake, so in an attempt to look cooler, he grabbed his sister\'s lipstick or something, and drew a star on his eye. Larry and Iggy laughed at him, Lemmy threw his ball right in his face, Roy stuck a KICK ME sign on a spike of his shell, Ludwig cried for a whole week straight, and Wendy stuffed his head in the washing machine as punishment for stealing her make-up. Nevertheless, in his mirror, he looked cool (or so he thought) and kept drawing a new star once every while. Now that\'s settled, I think the answers for the two questions above can be found quite obviously. He wore the star in Mario All Star because he wanted to look good with his new SNES graphics, and Wendy didn\'t catch him fast enough. As for the eye switch, either Morton wanted a change, or he\'s too light-headed to remember which eye he\'s supposed to apply the make-up. You guys really make mysteries out of the most common stuff. Name: LARRY KOOPA Email: (bowser dosen\'t let me reveal secrets to strangers) Thoughts: I mortons brother tinks,dat When was looking for abandon goomba in mskingdom Name: LARRY KOOPA(CONTINUED) Email: Thoughts: ,He tried to catch A STAR MAN,but it hit him in the face Name: Panzer Email: nelmocando.@lwol.com Thoughts: it\'s there b/c Nintendo put it there.....can\'t get any easier...... Name: time Email: fidodo@yahoo.com Thoughts: mortons tried to get the mystical star that comes up now and then. (star rod?) since the origin of the star comes from kirbys adventure id say that bowser., is none other than king dee dee dee! he stole the rod and his nephew morton tried to steal it. then he punished him by scaring him. but then he was punished for stealing the rod in the first place by the star people! by turning him into a lizard. BOWSER!!!!! and this all happened long befor the current mario games back in the ancient kirby saga. and to prove the point. look at the kirby enemies, there obviosly prehistoric ancestors of the new era of mario enemies! and then one day mario came and screwed bowser over. the end Name: Mat Email: Not telling Thoughts: Maybe he got hit on the eye with a shooting star attack and it healed and it happened again and morton plastered it down so it would stay. I know its stupid, but it is an odd thing to try to figure out. Name: Ludwig Von Koppa Email: Thoughts: About how it was switched after SMB3 Morton had a headache.His scar was paining like mad after Mario jumped on him. So Bowser zaped his scar with one of my inventions The Big Switcerooy. So Morton\'s scar went to his left eye and it never hurted again untill after SMW. Name: Booster Email: booster@greencafe.com Thoughts: I was riding my train around Booster Pass one day when I saw the Koopa family on a picnic. I remembered the mystery about Morton\'s star mark from this site an asked Morton where he got it. \"It\'s no mystery.\" he said \"It\'s just a birthmark. I think it has something to do with me being the future Koopa king. As for it switching places, the Koopa scribes made portraits of me. One of them screwed up and put it on the left side of my face. I think dad fed him to the Chain Chomps. Anyway, do you like wedding cake?\" I knew he was going into one his long blatherings about cake, so I went home. And THAT\'S the answer. Name: Erik Email: erik318@attbi.com Thoughts: I think that the scar was given to MORTON from Kamek which gives him his magic source. The switch is NINTENDO\'s CONTINUITY ERROR. Name: Rex the Birdo Email: johnathan@rcn.com Thoughts: Maybe he wanted a tatoo?or maybe some star had troube flying and it smacked into morton. Name: Chris (Mario fan #1!) Email: Thoughts: I am sorry about all the bad spelling in my other notes, it wont happen agan Name: Chris (Mario fan #1!) Email: Thoughts: whats with all these stupid ideas? A falling star? Neosporin? A mask? He painted it on? How stupid can this get How abuut a relistic one. Like nintendo decided to put it in. There is no explation about switching sides except It could be a hormanal emballence withen his body caused by his dad, bowser,when he fell into the lava when mario pushed him in and the radition withen the lava caused his jenes to mutate and be passed on by enheretence and caused him and the scar to to be unstable, therefore making the scar able to flip and migrate acrost his fase causing the image that it swiched sides over a peroid of time. ( Sorry, ive been paying attention in science class.) Well, thats the only real way I could see it happing. By.

Then Wendy O blamed it on Morton since she is daddies little girl Boswer being suck a big bastard decided to \"Teach\" his son a lesson aka a bloody razor blade. Talk about disfuctiional family. Name: Mario Rules Above all Email: Caparcra@aol.com Thoughts: Mabey Morton Koopa Jr. decided to join a cult. In order to become a full member, he had to carve a star in his face. And because of super natural powers driven from the cult it swiched from the left side of his face to the right side Name: MArio Rules Above All Email: Caparcra@aol.com Thoughts: Who Knows. Did anyone think that maybe Morton died in Super Mario Brothers Three. Then Koopa decided to give Kami the remains because Kami was bugging him. Kami then used his magic to Revive Morton Koopa Junior. (By the way little known fact: Koopa\'s real name isn\'t Bowser, It\'s Morton, Ha aha haha. That is how Morton got his name. Jr get it) But Kami screwed up on the spell thus the scar swiched sides. Name: Chris Email: Thoughts: I think that Morton\'s scar is a birthmark. That or face paint to look cool. Nintendo probably ethier maded a error with Morton\'s scar or they were very stupid that day.......... Name: NATHAN RAMBO Email: THAT I WONT TELL Thoughts: I thenk that one day mario came face to face with him. they both stood tall ready for battle. the leaped in the air and landed on each other. they started to fight. mario jumped on him. he bit him. mario punched him. he kicked him then tried to eat him but mario moved then jumped on him. he got mad and punched him hard. then mario got so mad that he pulled a star and yelled HERE PUT THIS IN YOUR FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and he hit him so hard that it left a mark forever. and one day the same thing happend but he punched him on the right side. Name: Jefferson Baugh Email: HarHarry8@aol.com Thoughts: I think that maybe that morton JR. got the scar from his mothers side, a really ugly human, and you know koopa, he goes for anything nasty. The woman was probably born with the scar,and moton inherited it. Name: Brian Mooney Email: bmooney@mixmail.com Thoughts: Obviously, when he was only a baby, after his parents were killed by voldemort, the scar appeared when voldemort tried to finish off Morton Koopa Jr.... err... wrong storyline... The real question is: \"Is Morton Koopa Jr. the koopa the same child of bowser that appears in Super Mario Sunshine?\" Name: Koopa Kid Krook Email: How about...no Thoughts: He isn\'t really very smart. He is so big and dumb, that his head was to big, and started to crack. The grey spot is a metal plate that bowser had to install to reinforce Morton\'s big ol\' head. Bowser was too cheap to buy a whole plate, so he bought 2. Unfortunately, they both broke from the bad shipping. He stuck them both on there. As for the switch, the metal plate became too small as Morton grew, so Bowser had to get a new one. The factory still had very bad shipping, but the crack went the other way. And the part on his face is just glue that has slid off that coincidentally was the same shape as the plate. Name: Koopa Kid Krook Email: I am still not telling. Thoughts: Or, maybe since Morton isn\'t Bowser\'s son (note: Morton Koopa JR. Son of Morton Koopa.), he was the son of a legendary king. He had the symbol on his face to mark that he was a ruler. The symbol passed on to his son, Morton. He died in a battle, and Morton was just sitting at home. Bowser might have hated him for his power, so he came to destroy his Morton\'s palace. When he got there, he found Morton Jr. He thought he could raise Morton Jr. to be his own. As for the switch, Morton Jr. was probably in a big battle, when he crushed his head. Kammy Koopa could cure him, but to keep the symbol on his face, he had to switch it to the other side. Morton never wanted to look in a mirror in fear that the injury was did major damage, so he never knew about the switch. Name: gene Email: starfox9@optonline.net Thoughts: may be he played in mud for a long time Name: me Email: Thoughts: The switch is caused because that picture from Super Mario World is a mirror image of the real thing. It goes the other way. There\'s no error with the switch. And Morton started banging his head on a star shaped rock when he was sleepwalking one night. Mystery solved. i think Name: Duinorwen of Mirkwood Email: mirkwoodsprincess@yahoo.com Thoughts: Ok.I\'m insane,no matter what my shrink says,so try to bear with me.The original \"scar\" was not a scar at all.It was a birthmark.A sign that he was to be the biggest loser in not one,not two,not three,but more dimensions than I care to mention.Why,you ask?Because I\'m too lazy to reread and count.Anyway, random tie-in #1 occurred in the break room at nintendo. He and a few other slightly neglected characters were drinking some coffee when he noticed that Link,while doing a retake of a scene for A Link to the Past, had left his hat. Anyone who has heard my crackpot theory about Link\'s hat knows that it\'s a portal to a parallel universe (namely Middle-Earth.The theory is that Link and Legolas are one and the same.)Well,Our friend Morton,with every intention of giving the hat back, accidentally got sucked in. Suddenly, he found himself surrounded by Elvish archers.(Random Tie-in #2) Seeing as how he looked more than a little like the orcs they were hunting, they sort of attacked and he sort of lost the skin on his entire face,voiding the original birthmark, before running accidentally into yet another interdimensional portal. This one led him to (Random Tie-in #3) a subway in Tokyo???(anyone else watche Vampore Princess Miyu?)Well, he spent a week or two lurking in the darkness,healing his face. One day, he sort of *accidentally* dragged a little girl to her potential doom in his lair.As he was tormenting her,he heard the sound of a flute. He turned to see a creepy vampire chick in a kimono.Well, he ran like heck and before you know it,into another portal and...(Random Tie-in #4) Lon Lon Ranch! There, he tried to make a living as a cattle rustler,but it didn\'t work. One night, he tried to steal Fallos the Star-hoofed Horse.Unfortunately,it kicked him right in the face,across the room and into the next portal. This one led to (Random Tie In #5)...The real world?He landed in the middle of a girls\' locker room!He may never have escaped but for the fact that the school bully\'s locker held a portal to...Link\'s head!Though Link was rather confused,finding a Koopa on his head, they were back in the coffee room,and,until now,no one noticed the change in Morton\'s scar. Name: Princess Peach Email: supar_sexy@hotmail.com Thoughts: Morton\'s scar is not a scar it is a tatoo. The tatoo was placed there by Bowser because he didn\'t kill mario and Luigi the first time he fought them. It is a reminder thet Morton is a faliure and has been switched from side to side because after the years of fighting mario and luigi it started to fade and got really dirty because he had no baths and so he needed to be tatooed again, but Morton didn\'t want to be tatooed and so while running away from Bowser, Bowser caught up to him and just tatooed him on whatever eye, because, Morton is much faster than him and younger and so Bowser had to do it the first chance he got. Name: zuuk Email: lllll@jjj Thoughts: I think that Nintendo just did that to make him look cool I don\'t think it means anything Name: Princess Peach Email: princesspeach@MBGold.znn.com Thoughts: I am Princess Peach and i KNOW why he has the scar. I have never told anybody this, and you are to never let mario know. The first time i was captured by Bowser I must say i was very attracted by his...manlyness. We, got a bit too close and so in the time it took mario to rescue me, I had the Koopa Kids. He was born with a star on his face. Bowser writes me letter occasionally and tells me how the kiddies are going. That\'s why i moved to a new castle. Because if mario gets a letter Bowser has written my he will get very angry. The reason for the switch is that as he gets older the star switches places. Since he was younger it has changed slowly, just nobody noticed it until now. Name: Princess Daisy Email: luvable_chick13@hotmail.com Thoughts: Nintendo is dumb and so forgot which side the scar was on and so just put it anywhere. dumbasses Name: Chris (Mario fan #1!) Email: Thoughts: WHAT! after My heart filled sedement about this subject ( between me and another chris...) people still come up with stupid ideas, STOP IT, your driving me Crazy!, okay, In going to write this long thingie to draw anyones attention who is bored and is scrolling down and happens to see this. The folloing notes are from people who had ideas, ive seen these alot. Bowser wouldent slice his own son and faithful minon, the risk of bleeding to death would lower his chance of beeting mario, This scar can not be a birthmark because no one elce in the faimly has it, usely birthmarks are passed on in the family. He could not have gotten another scar because a scar is a mark that is not souposed to heal, a scar wont heal. This cannot be a mask or paint because no paint or mask could be good enough to go over two totaly diffenent colors, in an even coat, no, not enewhere. there would be no falling star or a starman. The reason for this ts a falling star is not a star at all, it is just a big hunk of rock that after it made it through the atmosphere tt tould simply be a ball. A starman or \"super star\" would just turn him invisable, temparly. Ive been seeing a lot of plastic surdry er... surgery er... whatever i cant spell today, anyway, bowser would not regester for surdrey err. sorry. when you redgster you have to give your name and ADDRESS. that could blow his secetret, err.sorry agan, hideout. that would be bad. Its not a tattoo, or face paint or a mask, wait havent I been over this before. No one has come up with a good awnser. How abuut a relistic one. Like nintendo decided to put it in. Now NO ONE hae come up with a good come up with a explation because There is no explation about switching sides except It could be a hormanal emballence withen his body caused by his dad, bowser,when he fell into the lava when mario pushed him in and the radition withen the lava caused his jenes to mutate and be passed on by enheretence and caused him and the scar to to be unstable, therefore making the scar able to flip and migrate acrost his fase causing the image that it swiched sides over a peroid of time. ( Sorry, ive been paying attention in science class.) Well, thats the only real way I could see it happing. By. Name: Koopa Kid Krook Email: FOR THE LAST TIME I DON\'T WANT TO TELL!!!!!!!! Thoughts: What\'s the fun of this whole thing if none of the answers are pointless and stupid? He probably uses it asface paint, which he kept on for a LONG LONG time. He saw the new color and knew he had to have it, so he took the old paint off. He also wanted it on the other eye because the he had it on his left eye so long. He wanted a new style. And there is your answer! Name: D.B.Vixen Email: Drbattle2002@aol.com Thoughts: I think the star is just a birthmark that they forgot .

Name: me Email: Thoughts: There is no switch. The picture of SMW is a mirror image of the real thing. Proof? You want proof? Ok. 1) Go to mystery number 2. Look at his picture. 2)The Super Mario World series said that he has a star over his LEFT eye. And the star is not a scar, nor is it a birthmark, but it is just a mere face feature. Where do you think the rainbow lines on the back of Lemmy\'s head came from? It\'s a face feature. That\'s all...no switch. Name: alex Email: missyoldenburg@hotmail.com Thoughts: He healed the skar and he got in trouble and Bowser scratched his face. Name: paratroopa Email: Thoughts: Ok I’m think’n it went something like this, one fine day in Darkland, (is that possible?) Morton, Lemmy and were sitting around doing nothing then Larry decided to play a prank on Lemmy by giving him something covered in battery acid (a tad brutal sure but what do you expect from a koopa?) so he grabs the first thing he can find, which happens to be a starman, and covers it in acid from the battery he stole which runs Bowser’s doomship (hey, there koopas, they steal.) and wearing a glove gives the starman to lemmy. Now being the airhead that he is lemmy takes the starman. Due to his lack of gray matter lemmy doesn’t notice the pain for a few seconds. Then he suddenly (and stupidly) throws the starman and screams. Hurling through the air it heads strait toward Morton and hits him right smack in the face. Due to the immediate medical attention he received, his face wasn’t burned off but it still left a nasty scar. The reason the scar switched sides is probably the fault of some illustrator at Nintendo who forgot what Morton looked like since smb3 so he took a guess, a bad one at that. I personally think the scar is on the right. Oh yeah… by the way Larry got six months in the dungeon for his little joke. Name: Antti E. Linden Email: Thoughts: Perhaps a starkid crashed into his face by mistake (or not) and the pictures only are an error.If not, it probably isn´t a scar.It maybe is only make-up or something. Name: Chris (Mario fan #1!) Email: Thoughts: your right Richy48. but if there was a starman nearby, wouldnt it be more easy ,errr easier for mario just to jump up ang grabit and run into mortin. and a shadow would not change white to brown, or leave a dotted line. Name: Princess Peach Email: supar_sexy@hotmail.com Thoughts: Shuddup Chris (Mario fan #1) ur jus very up yourself and think you know everything! not right! n e ways bi! Name: Nick Email: Thoughts: I think that Morton had it tatood to his face to make himself look tough, but he found it didn\'t look cool on that side, so he tatood it on the other side. Name: Ice Warper Email: Wouldn\'t you like to know? And you won\'t! Thoughts: Morton. A mild mannered man, er, koopa. Morton was walking down 123 Fake street, Egg Cream, Alaska, 12345. He then saw a glowing rock. He picked it up. In five seconds he was out cold. The rock had changed him. It gave him a mutation, which was his scar. The scar was programmed by ailens to scan his brain. as for the \"switcheroo\", It had to move to scan each side of his brain to scan all of it. in another 20 years, it will be on the back of his head. In another 60 years, it will disappear. 2 years after that, UFOs will force us to eat jelly donuts while watching Spongebob Squarepants for 255.609 years. Then we will only be able to play Mario games with Morton in them. Morton will then star in the games. when Morton is normally the boss, Mario will be the boss with dragonball Z style hair.

Then abput the switch scar thing Morton had plastic surgery on his scar and after he lost to the mario bros. Bowser then threw a power star to Morton and got another scar, then he wanted to do plastic surgery again but from the other surgery he didn\'t have any more money and he bought a candy. Name: haha!

Name: drunk toad Email: not telling Thoughts: Before SMB3,on Christmas he went to a bar.No one cared that he was underage,they were too drunk.A couple of guys got in a fight and knocked over the Christmas tree .The star hit Morton\'s face and gave him the scar.As for the switcheroo,someone took a picture of him and switched it to the other side with a mirror.

Email: Thoughts: NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Name: Drunk Luigi with a grin Email: DiabloSurvivor88@aol.com Thoughts: One day, Morton was walking down the street, when he spotted good old US president George Bush. He flipped him off, then George jumped on him and kicked his ass. Morton then got up and slapped him with his rod, then breathed fire in his face. He took his password code from his pocket and traveled to USA. In the secret military base in The Yukon, he entered the password as all these doors started opening. Morton got anxious by the minute. And seeing as George Bush is a gay S.O.B., he saw a very small star equipped with a full proof pillow. He then kicked it upwards then left. It came back down and made the scar on his face. Morton then grabbed the pillow, went back to dark land, slapped george bush with the full-proof \"secret weapon\" then went back home. A few years later, his scar was completely gone. he went outside and fell through a portal in the ground made by George bush as a trap and fell in Afghanistan. He then saw Bin Ladin, and breathed fire on all of them. Then he pissed all over them as the US Army threw the \"secret weapon\" and it hit Morton on the face. Morton then killed them all and then he cried. He then tapped his feet and said, \"There\'s no place like hell, There\'s no place like hell\" then he teleported back to darkland where he re-grouped and began his usual orgys. Name: drunk luigi with a grin Email: guess Thoughts: Morton the star faced dumbass, had a very shiny scar. And if you ever saw it, you\'d probably wanna die. All of the other assholes, used to laugh and call him names, they never let poor Morton, join in any koopa orgys. Then one foggy easter eve, The easter bunny came to say. \"Morton with your ugly star, won\'t you guide my sleigh tonight. Then how the koopas hated him, as they shouted out with glee \"YIPPEE!\" Morton the star-faced dumb ass, got his star faced scar while fighting a starman one night at a bar than got it again during anorgy keg fight!
