In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', a brainwashed Magikoopa appears as a boss. This Magikoopa is intended to be Kamek due to him being old friends with Bowser and, if players read his mind with [[Mallow]]'s [[Psychopath]] ability, the Magikoopa will state "That's... my child?", referring to Bowser, whom he raised. However, when the game was translated to English, the translators forgot about giving the name "Kamek" to the individual Magikoopa character and, as a result, Kamek was called "Magikoopa" in the English release. This has caused confusion among fans and led many to believe it was another character altogether.

===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Kamek gets a very minor appearance as two [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|Sticker]]s. One sticker shows him casting a spell. This sticker, if used in the [[Subspace Emissary]] by a specific [[Characters|character]], will raise the power of the character's magic attacks by thirteen. The second sticker is Kamek riding his broom, which raises the selected character's indirect special power by five.

===Physical Appearance===

In his most recent appearances, Kamek is depicted as being nearly identical in appearance to the generic [[Magikoopa]]. This means that in most of his appearances, he wears a pair of round spectacles and a set of blue robes, complete with a blue wizard's hat. Both the brim of his hat and the edges of his sleeves are white. He is always seen with his scepter, a golden stick with a red jewel at the end; he is also usually seen with his broom, which is a stereotypical straw-colored broom with no particular quirks about its appearance. In the past, however, there have been a few attempts to make Kamek look distinct from others of his kind. The first of these was introduced in his debut appearance. His blue hat has a white brim, while regular Magikoopas' hat brims were blue. White trim is also on the end of his robes' sleeves. In ''Super Princess Peach'', besides the more obvious increase in size, he had a complete change of wardrobe at first; instead having cyan robes covered by a purple cloak and changing his round glasses for a more triangular shaped pair. In addition his scepter was longer and had a green jewel as opposed to red. After receiving enough damage in the battle with Peach, his colors return to his classic set.
