Pipe Cannons[1] are a type of Turtle Cannon in Super Mario Land. Unlike their stationary counterparts, Pipe Cannons move out of pipes and then fire a Bullet Biff before retreating. Pipe Cannons can be used as a platform to reach high areas. Pipe Cannons appear in World 3-1, World 3-2, World 4-1, and World 4-2.
