It has been suggested that this page be split into the following: Meteor, Bowser's flame. (discuss) |
- This article is about meteors that fall to the ground and act as obstacles. For the larger space rocks that can be ground-pounded in Super Mario Galaxy 2, see Meteorite. For attacks in the Super Smash Bros. series that send opponents downwards, see Meteor smash.
Meteors are small spherical rocky projectiles that have entered the atmosphere and are burning up due to the resulting friction. Meteors are featured prominently in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2, where they periodically crash into some planets in various galaxies. If hit by one, Mario (or Luigi) will take damage. In Super Mario Galaxy, meteors prominently appear in Bowser Jr.'s Lava Reactor, where they fall from the sky during the final part of the battle with King Kaliente, and the Melty Molten Galaxy in the mission Through the Meteor Storm, where they rain down during the entire mission. The meteors will not spawn if the player is looking directly at their spawn point. When Mario traverses the large staircase at the end of Bowser's Star Reactor, Bowser launches meteors from his mouth to destroy the platforms Mario walks on. In the Shiverburn Galaxy, meteors create temporary pools of lava when they collide with ice. Similar objects that create ice platforms when they fall in lava also appear in the Shiverburn Galaxy.
Similar objects known as Bowser's Flames[1] appear in New Super Mario Bros. U; they replace the volcanic debris of previous titles and have the same function, but they shower down more constantly rather than at designated intervals. They appear in the Peach's Castle levels Meteor Moat and Firefall Cliffs. In the former level, they tend to trail behind the player and catch up if they remain in the same spot for too long, and in the latter level, their movement is fixed due to the auto-scrolling element. In New Super Luigi U, they appear in the replacement levels Magma Moat and Firefall Rising. In addition, Bowser's fireballs take on the same appearance and can also rain directly downwards. Bowser also shoots down flames in Super Mario Maker and its remake in the New Super Mario Bros. U theme in similar patterns when he is riding a Lakitu's Cloud.
In Mario Party: Island Tour, meteors are found in the minigame Meteor Melee, in which they fall from the sky and deduct points upon collision.
