| '''Kaboombas'''<ref name=guide>{{cite|author=Miller, Kent; Munson, Terry|title=''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Player's Guide|language=American English|date=1995|publisher=Nintendo of America|page=[[media:SMW2 Guide 127.jpg|127]]}}</ref> are walking cannon enemies first appearing in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. In all of their appearances, they attack by shooting heavy [[cannonball]]s that fall to the ground and explode after a few seconds. Their name seems to be a portmanteau of "kaboom" and "[[Goomba]]", despite Kaboombas having no relation to Goombas other than being walking enemies. | | [[File:Kaboomba.PNG|frame|left]] |
| ==History==
| | A '''Kaboomba'''<ref>''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' Nintendo Player's Guide. [[Media:SMW2 Guide 127.jpg|Page 127]].</ref> is a walking cannon enemy found in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'', ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', and ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]''. They shoot [[cannonball]]s that explode after a few seconds. Kaboombas only appear in [[The Cave Of The Mystery Maze]] and [[Raphael The Raven's Castle]]. Stomping them lets the player ride on them, and eating them does nothing. An [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] or ground pound disposes of them. |
| ===''Yoshi's Island'' series===
| |
| In the [[Yoshi's Island (series)|''Yoshi's Island'' games]], a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] can safely stand on a Kaboomba, and while he cannot eat it, Yoshi can defeat it with an [[Yoshi Egg|egg]] or a [[Ground Pound]].
| |
|
| |
|
| In ''Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island'' and ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]'', Kaboombas appear only in [[The Cave Of The Mystery Maze]] and [[Raphael The Raven's Castle]], while in ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', Kaboombas appear in [[Bowser's Castle Break-In]].
| | [[File:SPPCannon.png|frame|left]] |
| | | Kaboombas would go on to be featured in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' under the name '''[[Cannon]]'''.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cgtFRF6Hx8 ''Super Princess Peach'' Glossary]</ref> The [[Calm Cannon]], a sleeping variety, also appeared. |
