Spiked Balls are objects found in New Super Mario Bros. and New Super Mario Bros. Wii. They usually appear in castle levels acting as obstacles, rolling around and smashing anything in their way. Ball 'n' Chains are Spiked Balls with chains attached to a pivot swinging in circles. In Super Mario Bros. 3 and New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Spikes produce Spiked Balls and throw them at players. A sub-species of Spike called Stone Spikes produce and drop Spiked Balls made of stone at players. Spiked Balls are also seen in Tumble Temple and Block and Roll in the Wii game, Mario Party 9.

A Giant Spiked Ball

A Giant Spiked Ball is a larger version of the Spiked Ball also found in New Super Mario Bros. They, like their smaller counterparts, are almost indestructible, except to Mega Mario or Mega Luigi. They are usually found in castles and can also destroy anything it rolls over, including the smaller Spiked Balls. In New Super Mario Bros. Wii Giant Spiked balls are found only in the World 8 where they appear in World 8-2, and World 8-Airship where Bowser Jr. uses them as exploding weapons against Mario. However, Mario can use them against him by Ground Pounding the ground to throw them into the Koopa Clown Car 3 times.

Both Spiked Balls and Giant Spiked Balls (under the name Spikey Balls) return in Super Mario 3D Land. They function very similarly to the preceding games. They can be destroyed by Statue Mario and invincibility.
