Bombshell Koopas are not immune to [[Superball Mario|Superball]]s, and they explode shortly after being [[stomp]]ed. They do not explode if they fall to their doom, for example, if a Superball is used on them. They are somewhat similar to the recurring [[Bob-omb]]s, except they cannot be moved and their blast radius is small and cannot take out other enemies and obstacles.

Bombshell Koopas are the most common enemy in ''Super Mario Land'', appearing in all levels except for [[World 2-3 (Super Mario Land)|Worlds 2-3]] (the [[Marine Pop]] level) and [[World 4-3 (Super Mario Land)|4-3]] (the [[Sky Pop]] level). Like red-shelled Koopa Troopas, Bombshell Koopas do not walk off edges, but merely pace back and forth on the platform.

In ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', normal Koopa Troopas appear as enemies, and Bombshell Koopas themselves are succeeded by a [[Buzzy Beetle]]-like variant, [[Noko Bombette]], whose name is a reference to the original Nokobon. (Bombshell Koopas were only referred to as such in the 2011 port of ''Super Mario Land'' to the [[Virtual Console]], almost twenty years after ''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins'' was released for [[Game Boy]].)

In the ''[[Super Mario Land (manga)|Super Mario Land]]'' manga, Bombshell Koopas are the second enemy type met by [[Mario]] and [[Mekakuribō]] (after the [[Goombo]]s). Mario stomps on them and they turn into bombs, confusing Mario enough to get hit by their explosions. In the last chapter, a Goombo steals a magical seal from the [[Chai Kingdom]] temple that prevented it from being attacked by [[Pionpi]], and tosses it to an exploding Bombshell Koopa, destroying it, in the hope that the Pionpi bite the heroes sheltered in the palace.


In ''[[WarioWare Gold]]'', a Bombshell Koopa appears in the second level of the [[microgame]] [[Super Mario Land (WarioWare Gold)|Super Mario Land]].
