In Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS, they are found in Cool, Cool Mountain and Snowman's Land. They jump up and down, and can also throw snowballs at the player. They can be defeated by circling around them until they disappear. In the remake, Wario can defeat them with a punch and Yoshi can melt them with his fire breath while using a Power Flower.

In Super Mario 64 DS, as with many of the enemies, their look is updated, though their attack pattern remains unchanged. They now have a zigzag mouth, wear a blue bucket for a hat and have a solid yellow mitten instead of a yellow one with a single pink stripe. They can defeated by spinning until they shrink, instead of falling on their side and shrinking. Unlike in the original version, Mr. Blizzards don't respawn after Mario walks far away and returns to that spot.

Mario Pinball Land
