Kaboombas,[1] also named Cannons, are walking cannon enemies first appearing in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and returning in its Game Boy Advance version, Super Princess Peach, and Yoshi's New Island. In all of their appearances, Kaboombas attack by shooting heavy cannonballs that fall to the ground and explode after a few seconds. In the Yoshi's Island games, a Yoshi can safely stand on a Kaboomba, and while eating them does nothing, Yoshi can defeat them with an egg or a Ground Pound. Its name is supposedly a portmanteau of "kaboom" and "Goomba", despite Kaboombas having no relation to Goombas other than being walking enemies.
In Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Kaboombas appear only in The Cave Of The Mystery Maze and Raphael The Raven's Castle, while in Yoshi's New Island, Kaboombas appear in Bowser's Castle Break-In.
Kaboombas and an unused big variant were originally designed during the development of Super Mario World,[2] where they would have shot Green Shells.[3] They would have had white shoes, which also appear in early assets of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.[4]
