That might just be an animation error, as I've also seen Cheatsy with blue hair.

And then there's Kooky and his face color change. Animation during the 20th century has been known for its fair share of errors, and even today, such errors can still be found at times.

I have never liked that design for Bowser.

Considering that most of the main cast, while they put their own thing, did resemble their game selves to some extent, Yeah DiC Bowser definitely stands out like a sore throat. (Especially when the Koopalings and Yoshi came in the later seasons, Which looked even more like their game selves.)

Larry Koopa would like to have a talk with you:

Since with the DiC cartoons I started viewing some SMW episodes, I had to exclude all the other possibilities before realizing that Cheatsy was Larry...

TBF, i did say "To some extent."
Also it's amazing how little the artstyle's changed over the years.

Now
Seriously aside from the height and the minor weight change, Mario almost looks exactly the same as he does now, 36 years later.

To be more precise, in the SMB3 series he had blue hair, in the SMW series the hair were changed to green. This is why I mentioned the SMW series in the spoiler annd I used an artwork from SMW.

Don't worry, it wasn't a reply against you, but rather a consideration that at the time DiC wasn't really looking at fidelity with the artwork of the characters, resulting in some depictions that were rather similar to the sprites, with Bowser not necessarily being an exception, in this case if you look at the sprite you'll see what I mean:

Cheatsy was clearly based on the sprite, with the green color added later to match his SMB3 sprite (whose hair is colored green on the back side).
