Cheatsy Koopa is Larry Koopa as he appears in the DIC Entertainment-produced cartoons The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Mario World. He and the other Koopalings usually scheme alongside King Koopa's latest plan, sometimes with Kooky von Koopa. Cheatsy appears the most out of the Koopa Kids, and he is voiced by James Rankin.
Profile[]
Physical description[]
There are several physical differences between Cheatsy: Larry's hair is a cockscomb while Cheatsy's hair is a mohawk with several strands that point in different directions, Cheatsy has an elongated muzzle instead of Larry's short, rounded one, Cheatsy has a flat mouth with two protruding teeth instead of Larry's feline one with four protruding teeth, furthermore Cheatsy has pronounced wrinkles that aren't visible on Larry's head and is almost always seen squinting, his skin is a little bit darker and has a tail that curls around like a pig's.
A very common animation goof regarding Cheatsy is that his green head is often colored orange, the same color as the rest of his body. One particular shot in the episode "The Beauty of Kootie" even mistakenly colors his head purple.

The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3[]
"Sneaking Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas": Cheatsy is assigned with several of his brothers to be Giant Ninja Koopas in order to capture Prince Hugo in Giant Land by King Koopa. Cheatsy and his brother manage to capture not only Hugo, but Luigi, Toad and Princess Toadstool as well. Cheatsy and his brothers are later defeated, turned back to their normal selves by Mario and co. Koopa manages to escape through a Warp Pipe to a Warp Zone with Cheatsy and his siblings.
"The Beauty of Kootie": In the episode Cheatsy works with Kootie Pie to refill the Doom Ship engine with oil, which causes the Sultan's jacuzzi to be filled with oil. Cheatsy then turns Kootie into a human to distract the Mario Bros, but Cheatsy turns Kootie back (but she fell for Luigi, who was transformed into Kassanova Koopa before the latter goes back to his normal self). Cheatsy and Kootie chase after him but again are defeated.
"Princess Toadstool for President": Cheatsy and Kooky make a Nice Guy Potion for King Koopa so he can be elected to be king of the Mushroom Kingdom. Cheatsy and Kooky eventually have to make more as the old potion's effects wear off. However, the Mario Bros. learn about this and ruin their last batch, thus stopping Koopa from becoming King.
"Never Koop a Koopa": In this episode Cheatsy and Koopa capture the gang and Koopa teaches Cheatsy about double-crossing. Cheatsy later double-crosses Koopa into signing the Mushroom Kingdom to him, but Koopa tells him it is just a smiley face and chases him around his throne.
"Tag Team Trouble": Koopa and Cheatsy plan to get one million gold coins (Toad misinterprets this as a plan to steal the gold coins he was carrying to the orphanage, though this is not the case). Cheatsy enters the Sledge Brothers into the Mushroom Wrestling Federation to fight Toad's cousins. During the battle, true to his name, he cheats and hypnotizes Toad's cousins to fall sleep for two days. But Cheatsy didn't prepare for Mario and Luigi, who, with a little help from some Starmen, beat them and win the gold coins.
"Misadventure of Mighty Plumber": Cheatsy has a minor role in this episode: he uses his wand to summon toys from the television, like a race car for Hip and Hop, and then Mighty Plumber. Cheatsy later is forced by Mario to put Mighty Plumber back into the TV.
"A Toadally Magical Adventure": Cheatsy and his siblings attempt to steal a magic wand, but fail due to the Mario Bros. Cheatsy and his family eventually manage to steal the wand and control the Pipe Monsters (though Kootie Pie takes the wand after this and places a fence around Princess Toadstool.) to grab the brothers. Cheatsy then uses the wand to zap a Nipper Plant into a giant and tells it to eat the brothers, but it fails. Cheatsy then enchants the fence surrounding Toadstool in an attempt to trap Toad, but that fails as well. With the help of Wizard King of the West, Cheatsy and his family are forced to give back the wand and return home.
"Misadventures in Babysitting": When Junior comes to the Mushroom Kingdom, Cheatsy, Kooky and Bully trick him into trapping the Mario Bros. However, since Junior doesn't want to destroy the brothers, Cheatsy, Kooky and Bully force him into the Pipe Maze, where Kooky poured lava into it in an attempt to dispose of the kid. But with the help of the Mario Bros., they were foiled once again.
"Do the Koopa": Cheatsy, Bully and Big Mouth go to get the Doom Dancer Music Box and steal it for Koopa. Cheatsy uses Big Mouth's string and grabs the Music Box for Koopa, only for Bully to use it to make him and the others dance. Koopa then uses it to make everyone dance until Mario covers his ears and destroys it.
Kootie Pie Rocks: Cheatsy helps Koopa bring Milli Vanilli to Kootie Pie, using the Doom Ship to kidnap them from a concert in New York City, which was being attended by Princess Toadstool, Toad and the Mario Bros.
7 Continents for 7 Koopas": In this episode, he helps his dad take over the Real World by taking over Australia. Cheatsy turns every human into a kangaroo, except one. He turns this man into a prawn, while alligators dressed as chefs attempt to put him on the grill. Cheatsy was foiled as Toadstool turns everyone back to normal and removes the alligator's teeth. After barely escaping from being thrown on a grill himself, he retreats back to the Mushroom Kingdom.
"True Colors": Cheatsy and Kooky divides the Mushroom People by spreading Koopa Color Goopa all over them; especially the Mario Bros. Everything was going according to plan until Mario and Luigi warn the Mushroom People that they were being tricked. After the Mushroom People reunite with each other, he and Kooky try to keep the war going by fighting each other, but Mario and Luigi expose them, which causes Cheatsy and Kooky to retreat.
Super Mario World[]
In the Super Mario World animated series, Cheatsy's hair was changed to a lighter green color and drawn a tad thicker, most likely to resemble his appearance in the game. He is the only Koopaling to appear in more than one episode as a main villain:
"Gopher Bash": Cheatsy recruits Monty Moles to help steal the cave people's crops and replace them with Piranha Plants. This plot is foiled by Yoshi, but he and the Monty Moles escape underground, telling the Mario Bros. they have to pay up if they want their crops back. The Mario Bros. rescue the food, but not before dropping the Monty Moles they kidnapped on top of Cheatsy. He sings his own self-praising song called Cheatsy's Life.
"Rock TV": Along with Kooky, Cheatsy helps King Koopa with his "Robby Rockwell" costume, which he uses to pitch Rock TV to the cave people.
"The Yoshi Shuffle": In this episode, Cheatsy plays the role of the referee in the football game between the Mario Bros. and the Koopas. His accusation that Mario and Yoshi cheated to get a touchdown in the football game is actually true, as they went out of bounds to get that touchdown. This is Cheatsy's last animation appearance.
