Ludwig, along with the rest of the Koopalings, [[Bowser Jr.]], and [[Bowser]], appears in the [[Wii U]] game ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|its Nintendo Switch port]], and once again serves as the final Koopaling boss to be fought, specifically in the world [[Meringue Clouds]]. He once again turns and snickers before battling Mario. His boss battle, like [[Larry]] and [[Iggy]]'s, involves him using his magic wand, and like [[Roy]], his battle takes place in the crow's nest.

His boss battle, like [[Larry]] and [[Iggy]]'s, involves him using his magic wand, and like [[Roy Koopa|Roy]], his battle takes place in the crow's nest.


In battle, he levitates in the air while making two clones of himself, and all three Ludwigs will blast fireballs at Mario before dropping onto the ground. If one of the clones is jumped on, it will simply disappear. There are four ways to find out which is the real one. The one that is the real one fires three fireballs, while the clones fire two. The clones keep their eyes half-open, and tend to assume the real Ludwig's pre-battle idle pose while not levitating. The real Ludwig will also drop to the ground last, after the clones, as well as laugh while dropping. Finally, Mario always looks at the real Ludwig if he can see him directly, just as he does with the other bosses. When the fight starts off, after shooting their fireballs, the clones disappear before landing. After the first stomp, the clones do not disappear. After the second stomp, not only do all three Ludwigs shoot faster, but swap positions, though the real Ludwig still shoots three fireballs. After being stomped on three times, Ludwig falls out of the crow's nest and off-screen, and his airship is destroyed by Mario. He is last seen hanging from Bowser's tail along with the other Koopalings as they all fly away on Bowser Jr.'s heavily damaged airship at the conclusion of the game.

Ludwig appeared in the interactive Anime adaptation of ''Super Mario World''. On Chocolate Island, he, alongside [[Lemmy]], [[Wendy]], [[Larry]], [[Morton]], and [[Roy]], ambushed Mario and Luigi at a fortress. He alongside his brothers fought Mario after Wendy nearly fell into lava, but Mario broke open a red block to get a Cape Feather and sent them flying.

Once the Mario Bros. enter his room, Ludwig attacks them by moving inside his shell, which they have to jump over quickly, or else they will have to start over from the beginning. However, Ludwig sometimes fakes the brothers out. Afterwards, Ludwig jumps into the air. Mario and Luigi, confused, attempt to leave the room, only for Ludwig to return, roar angrily at the Mario Bros., and proceed to rush into them to attack them.

Like in ''Super Mario World'', Ludwig attacks Mario and Luigi by shooting balls of fire and zooming around in his shell in battle, as well as a spinning attack like [[Iggy]]. Defeating him lowers the spikes preventing Mario from hitting a switch, raising a platform and allowing the Mario Bros. to continue to [[Roy]].

Ludwig reappears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. He first appears in [[Doop Doop Dunes]] with [[Larry]], [[Wendy]] and [[Roy]] where they capture Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario. In the Twinsy Tropics Dungeon, as Mario & co. head to the pipe that leads them to Bowser's Castle, they are stopped by Larry and Ludwig, telling them they need a pass to enter. Ludwig and Larry then briefly attack the Mario gang inside the pipe until Starlow unleashes a "Supernova Sparkle" attack. Afterwards, Ludwig and Larry exit out of the pipe and proceed to fight Mario & co. Ludwig and Larry are quickly defeated and forced to retreat. Ludwig is encountered one last time on top of [[Neo Bowser Castle]], alongside the rest of the Koopalings. Ludwig briefly claims that he is a leader, to which the other Koopalings deny and as Ludwig attempts to explain what they are as a group, he realizes that he should be focused on beating Mario and gets ready for combat. Ludwig and Larry then battle Mario & co. one last time. After the battle, Ludwig utters some last words, saying that he has been dethroned, just before exploding.

In both of the boss battles against Ludwig and Larry in the main story, Ludwig draws [[Battle Card (Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam)|Battle Card]]s from his deck, one at a time. In order to use them, he and Larry must collect Dark Star Points by successfully damaging Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario. The Battle Cards are drawn in a specific order; when the last card is used, Ludwig begins the cycle again by drawing the first card. Ludwig will never use Battle Cards consecutively; at least one attack must occur for a Battle Card to be used.
