Black Nerd Reveals the Koopalings' Parents

Andre of Black Nerd Comedy loves the Koopalings, but hates the news that, in the New Super Mario Bros. canon, they are Bowser's henchmen, not his children. He thinks there's a "Koopa Kids Konspiracy" going on, and the only way to prove if Bowser is the father is to go on Maury.
This video was inspired by a ScrewAttack blog post from DigiWario:

Thank you! Miyamoto has my respect, but he can say whatever he wants & it won't change history which documents that the Koopalings are Bowser's children. This is the same problem I have with the Hyrule Historia neglecting past in-game facts to fit A Link to the Past into the timeline.
Anyway, my favorite Koopaling is Lemmy Koopa from Super Mario Bros 3. I like the circus balls he unleashes and how he even rides one & his crazy nature. I didn't like him as much in Super Mario World (or any of the boss fights against the Koopalings in that game).

Ludwig, from Super Mario World, is my favorite because his castle after defeating him flies into a mountain with eyes, instead of crumbling down.

my god I was hesitant when I saw another new memeber, but when the first words that you said came out of your mouth, subscribed!

This was amazing. Ludwig was my favorite. And props for recognizing his fucked up laugh in the cartoon, that was more horrifying that Mark Hammil's joker!

I like to believe that the koopalings are failed clones of the koopa king. With Bowser junior, Kammy and Kamek finally perfected the formula, giving Bowser a perfect heir to his self-proclaimed throne.

No more koopa kids! I want Wart and Tatanga back!

Something I find interesting about the Koopalings in the cartoons: Hip (Lemmy) and Hop (Iggy) were actually voiced by voice actress extraordinaire Tara Strong and Kootie Pie (Wendy) was voiced by Tabitha St. Germain; who was also the voice of Spryte in the Legend of Zelda cartoon, Nazz in the first season of Ed, Edd, n Eddy and a certain white unicorn in a certain cartoon on The Hub television channel.
My favorite Koopaling is probably Ludwig mostly because I love the fact that he's pretty much a reference to Beethoven (huge classical music fan here). Also, Bowser Jr. no better than Waluigi or Toadette? I don't know about that man, at least he debuted in a mainstream Mario game and is utilized in more than just the spinoffs, giving him somewhat of a purpose compared to those characters.
