Bowser running over to cover Bowser Jr's eyes Laughing

"God dammit, Bowser Jr., what did I tell you about playing No More Heroes?"

Bowser Jr. is playing himself, but not in the fun "with" sense.

Knowing Bowser and Bowser Jr.'s defiant characteristics, they were probably going through the motions of this video so they can spend all night gaming until they're tired. Wink

Soooo Bowser has the hots for another woman and he's supposed to be "married with children" in this ad, right? Laughing

It's probably a reference to Paper Mario in which his diary implies he has a crush on Peach.

I really like how they depict Bowser as really wanting to be a good dad to his son.

I also love how trolls and other such posters are depicted as Boos.

Well, maybe he's divorced. We don't even know who Bowser Jr.'s mother was, and seeing the things Bowser has done in the past (namely being a villain and a despot), it's understandable why she'd want a divorce. (I don't know how Bowser would get custody of Junior though.)

Now the question here is, assuming Bowser buys all of the games for Junior, how he missed the big "Rated M for Mature" or "18+" boxes in the corner for No More Heroes 3. Clearly, he isn't one of those parents who ignores those content warnings and freaks out when they see the game in action. He knows better.
