Cannon

A Cannon is an item in Super Mario 64. To use the cannon, Mario had to talk to a Bob-omb Buddy, so he could use the Cannon. The Cannon helped him get blasted off to other places.

The Cannon has appeared in Mario Party 7 as an orb in Pagoda Peak and Mario Pinball Land.

A smaller Cannon that shoots Cannonballs appeared in Mario Hoops 3-on-3.

Cannons appear in boss fights against Donkey Kong in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis.

Cannons were used to blast Yoshi to new heights in Yoshi Topsy-Turvy.

There is a calmer, live variety of cannon enemies in Super Princess Peach that are called Calm Cannon.
