In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch remake]], '''Wizakoopa''', originally referred to as just '''Magikoopa''', appears as a recurring character. He is first seen leading Bowser's troop of Magikoopas in [[Rose Way]] and also in [[Moleville]], where his units have dwindled and he complains to Bowser that they are inexperienced with fighting the [[Smithy Gang]]. By the time Bowser is met at [[Booster Tower]], he and the rest of [[Koopa Troop|Bowser's Minions]] are nowhere to be seen. Later, he is found at [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Keep]], where he has been mind-controlled to work for [[Smithy]] and attacks the party for trespassing the castle. In battle, Wizakoopa attacks by using magic attacks (such as [[Water Blast]], [[Blizzard (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Blizzard]], and [[Flame Wall]]), and summoning monsters (such as [[Bahamutt]], [[King Bomb]], and [[Jinx Clone]]) to guard [[the Trial Course]]. After being defeated, he returns to normal (signified by his robe changing from red to blue) and apologizes to Bowser. He makes a [[magic treasure box]] that has an infinite amount of [[coin]]s appear for the player, and fully heals them when spoken to.

During the battle with Wizakoopa, his thought via [[Mallow]]'s [[Thought Peek]] ability is 「キイーッウキイーーッ! あの時の赤んぼう!?」 (''Kiii ukiii! The baby from that time!?'') in the Japanese version, which refers to recognizing Mario from ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island''; despite this, other dialogue implies that this Magikoopa is original to the game{{ref needed}}, and as such, that reference may simply be an [[Easter egg]] since the name Kamek is otherwise not distinct from Magikoopa in that language. In the original English version, his thought is "''That's...my child?''" which presumably refers to Bowser. Despite this, Bowser is not required to be in Mario's active party, and Wizakoopa does not react to Bowser like the castle's earlier monsters that run away from him.
