In ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Bomb Boos only appear in the [[Ghostly Galaxy]] during the missions [[Beware of Bouldergeist]] and [[Bouldergeist's Daredevil Run]],  where they are necessary to defeat [[Bouldergeist]], who also happens to be a rock-covered weirdly shaped Bomb Boo. Bomb Boos float lazily back and forth, exploding after some time, but they do move towards [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] if either of the Bros. get close to them. If the player [[spin]]s near one, Mario or Luigi will grab its tongue, and continuing to spin will swing the Boo around until it hits something or they eventually lose their grip.

Bomb Boos float lazily back and forth, exploding after some time, but they do move towards [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] if either of the Bros. get close to them. Unlike normal Boos, Bomb Boos are not shy and will keep moving even if they are looked at by Mario or Luigi. If the player [[spin]]s near one, Mario or Luigi will grab its tongue, and continuing to spin will swing the Boo around until it hits something or they eventually lose their grip.


Up to six Bomb Boos can be held at once. If the player holds it for too long, it will begin to flash red and explode soon after, damaging Mario or Luigi.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', [[Bouldergeist]] re-appears, along with four other ''Super Mario Galaxy'' bosses, in the [[Boss Blitz Galaxy]]. Because of Bouldergeist's re-appearance, Bomb Boos make a comeback so Mario can damage the boss in the same way as he did in the previous game.

Bomb Boo makes an appearance in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as an assistant doctor. When the Bomb Boo has a skill level of 1, it will grant the player a 50% chance of having a half-full skill meter at the start of a stage and a 5% chance of receiving three extra capsules when the players amount of remaining capsuals equals three. As the Bomb Boo levels up, the percentages for each boost increases by 10% and 5% respectively, for a maximum of 90% and 25% at skill level 5.
Bomb Boo makes an appearance in ''[[Dr. Mario World]]'' as an assistant doctor. In stage mode, they grant a chance in increasing the capsule amount by three when the player has only three capsules remaining, in which the chance of activating it is greater at higher levels, up to 25% at maximum level. If this effect failed to activate the first time, it will attempt to activate with the same percentage chance if the player's capsule amount exceeded this amount and then reduced to three remaining capsules again. Once this effect activated, it will not activate again for the duration of the stage. In versus mode, they grant a chance that the skill meter will be half-full at the start of the match, in which the chance is greater at higher levels, up to 90% at maximum level.
