Are these really considered enemies? They seem more like mobile obstacles than a live creature, just like spikes or fireballs.--Spike 20:46, 19 October 2006 (EDT)


 * I think we should make a new category for objects that are specifically made as traps. They are not really enemies as they are purely mechanical without any independent thought processes. Perhaps a Traps and Obstacles category. -- Son of Suns

Similar obstacle
Isn't there an obsticale in DKCR in the cliffs that is like Ball'n'chains? Should we include it?--YoshiGo99 21:55, 13 March 2011 (EDT)

WHY, do they have a Species Infobox? THEY ARE MACHINES. Mustard of Doom. It's what's for dinner. BA-DUM-BUM.


 * It's not just a species box a lot of objects have them

Two questions.
First: The Ball 'n' Chain has a Japanese name? Second: Where do you get the names of enemies? Is there some game that has the names or it's from other sources?--Deruffy 12:59, 5 May 2012 (EDT)

Pretty much all enemies have Japanese names, as the series is from Japan and few Mario games haven't been released there. Also, the names of enemies are usually found in other sources.

NSMBU Ball 'n' Chains, old or new
I recently finnished New Super Luigi U and I noticed a very special thing about the Ball'n'Chains in that game. Not only are the spiked balls connected to a spiked arm instead of chains and move in pendulum-like manner but apperently the games calls them Pendulums (Pendulum Castle, Impossible Pendulums). So this obstacle might not only looks similar to the Ball'n'Chains but can actually be a completely new obstacle called Pendulums. If that´s the case we should make a new page about them, or what do you guys think.

Aside from the level names, does New Super Luigi U directly refer to these as pendulums? 13:03, 13 August 2013 (EDT)
