Fire (also known as a Fireball and a "trouble bug"[1]) was the first generic enemy in a Mario game. Despite their last of three names, they are not insects, but living embodiments of fire similar to the Podoboos from Super Mario Bros.
History
Donkey Kong
Fire appears in three of the four stages in the original Donkey Kong arcade game as well as Donkey Kong on the Game Boy. In the ramp and conveyor belt stages, Fire emerges from the oil drums. They chase Mario and one touch would cause him to lose a life. They can also climb up ladders including broken ladders. They could be destroyed with a Hammer. In the rivet stage, they are replaced by Foxfires.
Super Mario Bros. Special
Their next appearance was in Super Mario Bros. Special where they were credited as Sigebou (シゲボー). The name was created by Hudson's staff.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis
They also appear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis in the final boss fight with Donkey Kong, on the roof and the basement levels.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Fire also appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl on the 75m stage. On that stage, Fire can damage the fighters by touching them. Each hit does 10% damage and moderate knockback.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!
Fire is set to appear in the upcoming Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! as enemies once again.
