post any random Mario thought on your mind

If they were adopted it would make more sense. Since they were disowned as Bowser's actual kids.

I hope this is not the way that Nintendo will follow, although that's the easiest way out, because in my opinion they were not designed and indeed they were not presented as adopted children. Three of them even have blue eyes like Bowser had in SMB3. I really dislike the adoption theory. Luckily, Nintendo UK agrees with me:

"And you’ll need all the powers you can muster, to beat Bowser’s offspring lurking in their heavily-armed airships."

P.S.: of course, also Nintendo of Germany used that term:

"Du wirst all deine Kräfte benötigen, um Bowsers Sprösslinge zu schlagen, die in ihren schwer bewaffneten Luftschiffen lauern."

Germany loves the Koopalings as Bowser's natural children...

and Nintendo Italia agrees!

"Per battere la prole di Bowser, asserragliata su navi volanti pesantemente armate, ti serviranno tutti i poteri che riuscirai a raccogliere."
 
And that's still four of them without blue eyes.

Yeah, a lot of people and animals have blue eyes.

Plus, we don't know the color of the eyes of Roy.


Ok, sorry for the tone. That "No. Seriously no." was a rude and awful response, I now removed it from the original post but still keep here as a sign of bad behavior from me. I think that the Koopalings were designed at the time as Bowser's natural children (the color of the eyes actually follows the rule of Mendelian inheritance, and the designers were surprisingly conformant to it, with the correct 50% ratio!) and they clearly were presented as such, as I showed. This is why I am not fond of the adoption theory, although I think this is the likely route that Nintendo will take, as that's an easy escape.
