In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', quartet-cannons appear in {{world-link|1|airship3|World 1-Airship (Super Mario Bros. 3)}} and {{world-link|5|airship3|World 5-Airship (Super Mario Bros. 3)}}. In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''{{'}}s [[World-e]], they also appear in [[Bowser's Airship 1]].
In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', quartet-cannons appear in {{world-link|1|airship3|World 1-Airship (Super Mario Bros. 3)}} and {{world-link|5|airship3|World 5-Airship (Super Mario Bros. 3)}}. In ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''{{'}}s [[World-e]], they also appear in [[Bowser's Airship 1]]. In this game, they cannot be interacted with, and only two opposite barrels out of the four are active.


In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', quartet-cannons appear in {{world-link|8|airship|World 8-Airship (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. In addition to hanging overhead, some are now found grounded on the floor. One of these grounded quartet-cannons is a large '''rotating cannon pipe'''<ref>Dark Horse Books. ''Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia: The Official Guide to the First 30 Years''. Page 151.{{better source}}</ref> that fires [[giant cannonball]]s out of three cannons, with one cannon actually being a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]] that does not fire and that player characters must enter.
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', quartet-cannons appear in {{world-link|8|airship|World 8-Airship (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. In addition to hanging overhead, some are now found grounded on the floor. Consequently, their behavior has been tweaked; they are now solid objects, and they fire three cannonballs at a time when cardinal and two diagonal cannonballs when ordinal. One of the grounded quartet-cannons is a giant '''rotating cannon pipe'''<ref>Dark Horse Books. ''Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia: The Official Guide to the First 30 Years''. Page 151.{{better source}}</ref> that fires [[giant cannonball]]s out of three cannons, with one cannon actually being a [[Warp Pipe|pipe]] that does not fire and that player characters must enter.
