In ''[[Nintendo Power]]''{{'}}s ''[[Super Mario Adventures]]'' comic, a Bullet Bill makes a relatively small appearance; after accidentally activating a Turtle Cannon after knocking Luigi off it, Mario is blasted by a Bullet Bill, which he ends-up riding straight into the Koopaling's Tower, where he is captured by Bowser's forces.

Bullet Bills are an enemy in ''[[Yoshi's Safari]]''. They are present in a few levels. They come at [[Mario]] head on and are shot down with one hit from the [[Super Scope]]. The Turtle Cannons are not visible, the bill's come from somewhere off screen. In this game the Bills come at the player head on, a perspective rarely seen of them.

Bullet Bills return in the sequel, ''[[Yoshi's Island DS]]'', where they were changed to black to be consistent with their ''Super Mario'' appearance. Bullet Bills also return ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', performing the same actions as in previous ''Yoshi's Island'' games and retaining their design from games in the ''Super Mario'' series, similarly to ''Yoshi's Island DS''.

In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', there is an item called [[Bullet Candy]] that appears only in [[Bowser's Warped Orbit]]. It transforms the player's bottom half into the end of a Bullet Bill and allows them to hit three [[Dice Block]]s (similar to [[Thrice Candy]]). For every opponent the player runs in to, one Star is stolen from them.

In the Story Mode of the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'', Bowser Jr. uses a Bullet Bill to travel between areas, and there is an obtainable [[List of badges in Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|badge]] of a Bullet Bill from the badge machine. In ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games]]'', Bullet Bills are featured prominently in the [[Bullet Bill Sledge Race]] event, where each sled is pulled by a pair of harnessed Bullet Bills. In the Nintendo 3DS version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games (Nintendo 3DS)|Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games]]'', Bullet Bills appear in [[Boxing Plus]], as an item that can deplete the opponent's Guard Gauge, as well as [[Rhythmic Gymnastics Plus]], where they occasionally fire from offscreen to show upcoming buttons for the player to input.

A Bullet Bill appears in the background of a {{media link|The Super Mario Bros. Movie Rainbow Road poster.jpg|poster}} for ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'' showcasing [[Princess Peach]] and numerous [[Kong]]s driving on [[Rainbow Road]]. In the movie itself, [[Koopa Troopa]]s fire them out of the cannons of their karts at the same location. One Bullet Bill is fired from its Bill Blaster at Mario and Donkey Kong's [[Rocket Barrel]] upon their return from the [[Maw-Ray]], while several of them alongside some [[Koopa Paratroopa]]s are flying in [[Brooklyn]], being easily taken down by Invincible Mario and Luigi.
