'''Sky Cannons'''<ref>''Mario Pinball Land'' instruction manual, pgs. 6, 14, 16, and 19</ref> are a type of [[cannon]] in ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]''. One first appears in the opening cutscene, in which a [[Toad (species)|Toad]] as a pinball enters the Sky Cannon and is blasted toward a target. After [[Princess Peach]] as a pinball enters the cannon, two [[Goomba]]s aim it at [[Bowser's Castle|Bowser's castle]], causing her to be blasted right into it. | |||
During gameplay, Sky Cannons are used to blast [[Mario]] to different [[level]]s. To use one, the player must use the [[flipper (Pinball)|flipper]]s to hit Mario into it, causing it to lower, and then hit him toward it so he rolls into it. Hitting a Sky Cannon grants 1,000 [[point]]s. If Mario does not reach the activated Sky Cannon in time, it returns aboveground. If the player does not want Mario to enter it, they must press {{button|gba|l}} and {{button|gba|r}} together, after which the Sky Cannon returns aboveground. After Mario enters the Sky Cannon, the player can choose a level to go to. | |||
Initially, a Sky Cannon appears only in [[the Fun Fair]]. However, after the player obtains a [[Star Key (Mario Pinball Land)|Star Key]] from a boss in another level, a Sky Cannon replaces the [[? Block]] in that level's first area. In the [[Fiery Stage]], a Sky Cannon appears by default in the main foyer. | |||
The Sky Cannon in the Fun Fair can also be used to shoot [[Bob-omb]]s at the target in the top right corner for points during the bonus game after [[Bowser]] is defeated. The Sky Cannon needs to be activated the same as before but with Bob-ombs. Unlike Mario, Bob-ombs automatically enter the Sky Cannon instead of rolling into it. After the Sky Cannon returns aboveground, the player can shoot any Bob-ombs it contains at the target. If the Sky Cannon contains no Bob-ombs when it returns aboveground, the player can simply try again if they have any more of them. | |||
