Doesn't this make more sense as a derivative of Bill Blaster? Considering some of them have Bullet Bill turrets on them, and not Banzai Bill.

'''Banzai Bill Blasters''' are titanic [[Bill Blaster]]s in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' Like Bill Blasters they slowly shoot [[Banzai Bill]]s. It is unknown if they were the Blasters that shot Banzai Bills in [[Super Mario World]], but they most likely were. These Bill Blasters only appeared in World 8-1 of the New Super Mario Bros. and aided the player to the top of the flagpole in that very course. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, the Banzai Bills made their appearance in the fighting arena we know as Princess Peach's Castle. Like in Super Mario World, it is unknown whether or not it is the Banzai Bill Blasters that are launching these gargantuan Bills.

[[File:SMG2 Banzai Bill Blaster.png|thumb|150px|A Banzai Bill Cannon in ''Super Mario Galaxy 2'']]
Banzai Bill Cannons debut in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', where they appear only at the end of [[World 7-5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 7-5]] and [[World 8-1 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-1]] and help the player reach the tops of the [[Goal Pole|pole]]s. They appear in every other game in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series, including ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe]]''. In ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games that use 3D models for Banzai Bill Cannons, their full model is only the visible half-portion of the cannon.<ref>{{media link|BanzaiBillCannon DiagonalView.png|This image illustrates the diagonal view of the Banzai Bill Cannon from ''New Super Mario Bros.

[[Category: Enemies]]
They also make an appearance in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''{{'}}s final level, [[Bowser's Galaxy Reactor]], ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. They act the same way as they did in previous titles, albeit in a 3D space.
[[Category: Species]]
 
Banzai Bill Cannons appear as course elements in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' style, where they can be placed in the background launching Banzai Bills towards the screen.

===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|remake]], before [[Fawful]] took over [[Bowser's Castle]], [[Private Goomp]], [[Corporal Paraplonk]], and [[Sergeant Guy]] were able to salvage a Banzai Bill Cannon, and escaped with it. [[Bowser]] later encountered the group carrying the cannon through the forest, and they told him that they were going to launch a Banzai Bill at the castle, though he then learned that they had no Banzai Bills. After Bowser recovered one from [[Wiggler]], they launched it at the castle, though before it could make contact, [[Midbus]] had the castle float into the air, efficiently dodging the Banzai Bill.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
[[File:MLDTSergeantGuyCannon.png|left|thumb|200px|The Sergeant Guy Cannon]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', the [[Sergeant Guy Cannon]] is a Banzai Bill Cannon used in the battle against the [[Elite Trio]]. [[Sergeant Guy]] uses it in one of his attacks, taking two full turns to have it prepared. In the first turn, the Banzai Bill is manually loaded into the cannon by a few [[Shy Guy]]s. On the second turn, it gets launched.
 
===''Mario Kart'' series===
====''Mario Kart 7''====
In ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', a single Banzai Bill Cannon appears in {{classic-link|DS|Airship Fortress}}, replacing the Bill Blaster in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'' and this time firing Banzai Bills at faster intervals.

===''Paper Mario'' series===
====''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''====
In ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', [[Bowser Jr.]] uses a Banzai Bill Cannon aboard his [[airship]] in [[Bowser Jr.'s Flotilla|World 6-2]]. At one point to progress, Mario has to [[paperize]] the Banzai Bill Cannon [[Sticker#Scraps|scrap]] and turn it around, causing it to blast a hole through the ship and subsequently break down. It [[List of Paper Mario: Sticker Star pre-release and unused content|originally]] would have been a fightable enemy known as '''Banzai Blaster''', but was cut.<ref>https://tcrf.net/Paper_Mario:_Sticker_Star#Enemies</ref>
 
====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
In ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', Banzai Bill Cannons appear in [[Black Bowser's Castle]]. They are used to fire Banzai Bills filled with [[black paint]]. When Mario blows up Bowser's black paint factory, the Cannons start firing Banzai Bills the same way they do in other games.
 
===''Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition''===
In ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]'', a Banzai Bill Cannon appears as a ally, though under the name Banzai Bill. It is a dark/light ally with 2 star HP, 5 star ATK, and 0 star RCV. It evolves from Bullet Bill and evolves into King Bill. It has the skill armor break and the awoken skill dark boost.
 
===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
While actual Banzai Bill Cannons do not really appear in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', it is revealed near the end, during [[Princess Peach]] and Bowser's wedding, that the volcano-like structure forming the centerpiece of Bowser's Castle also doubles as a missile silo used to launch the Bomber Bill that would destroy the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] after the wedding is thwarted.
