Is this an official name?--son.of.suns@gmail.com 19:05, 25 April 2006 (EDT)

Is that really the plural form? Big Steelys? I'm thinkin', and changing it to, Big Steelies. H K

Is that an official name? H K

neither Big Steelys or Big Steelies is official. in fact, I don't think Big Steely is official. Max2 who knows the conjecture templete, and thinks we should use it.

You are correct. Adding conjecture template. 20:24, 23 February 2007 (EST), the guy who agrees.

awww... I want to. :) go ahead, I don't care who does it, as long as it gets done! Max2

The name "Big Steely" comes from the Mario Mania player's guide for Super Mario World. - NES Boy 21:00, 8 April 2007 (EDT)

It's not conjecture it's from the official guide too. - Yoshi Master

Since when is it true that the cannonballs in Super Mario 64 are indeed Big Steelies? Last I checked those were never officially named. Vent 15:41, 9 July 2012 (EDT)

Super Mario 64
Just for the record, the SM64DS guide calls the things that roll down the mountain "boulders." Don't know about the S64 guide, but I assume that it isn't much different.
 * Just to avoid confusion, what is the code of that guide (top right on the front)? --Hiccup (talk) 03:52, 8 December 2015 (EST)
 * I don't know what you're referring to by "code". There's nothing on the cover except for the title. The guide I'm talking about is the Nintendo DS Pocket Guide (licensed by Prima), which seems to be the only official guide for SM64DS.

Paper Jam appearance?
Just out of curiosity in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam there's a hammer called the iron ball hammer in which it drops a massive iron ball, don't you think it could be a Big Steely, also another thing to keep in mind it's not a cannonball because it would've otherwise stated it as one, instead it calls it an iron ball.

So I did some research on all of Dream Teams hammers and found that the same Iron Ball hammer exists there as well, and it is the same effect so I figured that it could possibly be a Big Steely.
