Talk:Fireball

Name?
Do you think those fireball enemies from Donkey Kong have an official name? It would be really cool to find a souce that names the different enemies from the original Donkey Kong series (if they even have names). --Son of Suns


 * They may actually be Podoboos (which also makes them the first enemy in the marioverse).--Spike[[Image:Spike_sheild_badge.PNG]]


 * Well, the Fireballs in DK look similar to the ones in Mario Bros. (the Mario Bros. ones lack eyes, though). Podoboos seem to be different.  I don't think the ones in DK have a name.

 * I checked. They're not Podoboos, they're actually Lava Bubbles.  I've changed both articles accordingly.Waluigi Freak 99 14:53, 24 September 2006 (EDT)


 * Just wondering, how did you figure out those enemies are called "Lava Bubbles"? -- Son of Suns


 * The Lava Bubbles are identical to the enemies seen in Donkey Kong. They're not Podoboos in Donkey Kong, Podoboos are shaped differently, and they're not generic Fireballs, because the ones in DK have eyes.  Since they're red, they must be Lava Bubbles and not Embers.Waluigi Freak 99 19:29, 25 September 2006 (EDT)


 * That doesn't mean they are the same. They actually resemble Sparkys from Super Mario RPG more than Lava Bubbles. Lava Bubbles have yellow eyes while Sparkies have black eyes, just like the enemy from Donkey Kong. Unless an official name is discovered, we should probably create a seperate article for this fireball enemy (or reintroduce it into this article). -- Son of Suns
