Cannons make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They continue firing when touched and are commonly found on floors. In most [[airship]]s, regular cannons are aimed slightly upwards, and shoot their [[cannonball]]s diagonally. These levels can also include four-barreled [[quartet-cannon]]s and two-barreled [[diagonal cannon]]s. In the [[tank]] and [[battleship|boat]] levels, other variations are introduced. Some take the form of turrets resembling [[small pipe]]s that fire straight ahead like [[Bill Blaster|Turtle Cannon]]s, some regular-looking cannons act as mortars that eject [[Bob-omb]]s at short distances, some are [[giant cannon]]s that fire [[giant cannonball]]s, and some are regular cannons that are fixed on ceilings.
Cannons make their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. They continue firing [[cannonball]]s when touched and are commonly found on floors, although some are fixed on ceilings. As seen in several [[airship]]s, grounded cannons are aimed diagonally upwards while ceiling cannons are aimed diagonally downward. These levels may also include four-barreled [[quartet-cannon]]s and two-barreled [[diagonal cannon]]s. In the [[tank]] and [[battleship|boat]] levels, other variations are introduced.
