Broozer

A Broozer (also known as Boozer or Boxer) is a boxing ghost found in the game New Super Mario Bros. and New Super Mario Bros. Wii. In New Super Mario Bros., they have huge grimaces on their faces, and in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, in the one level they are in, they are perpetually scowling.

In New Super Mario Bros., they are found in two locations: 5-Ghost House and 5-C. Broozers blindly run into the direction of Mario (or Luigi), punching at anything in their way. These enemies can be useful, and they can punch unbreakable bricks, allowing Mario to reach items and Star Coins that could not otherwise be reached. Mario must jump on a Broozer three times to defeat it. However, a Ground Pound, being hit by Mario doing a Shell Dash, or a Fireball can defeat these enemies in one hit. Also, because of their unusually bad traction, Broozers often can be forced to fall into gaps in the floor by running past their target and being unable to stop.

In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, they appear in World 7's Ghost House. They have the same function as they did in New Super Mario Bros., only this time, in addition to breaking bricks, it can also knock over barrels and cause them to roll down stairs. They are imperative to finding level 7-6, as Mario must lure one to bust open a hidden, unseen door so he can take the secret exit and unlock the level.
