Bomb

Bombs are a type of explosive featured as both an item and an object throughout the Mario series and its spinoffs. They first appear in Mario's Bombs Away.
==History==
===Mario's Bombs Away===
Mario has to deliver bombs to his comrades at a military outpost, being careful not to blow up his own base.
===Super Mario series===
====Super Mario Bros. 2====
In Super Mario Bros. 2, Bombs appear again. Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Toad can pluck bombs from the ground and throw them. They have to use the bombs to clear obstacles in locations where they are caved in. Once the bomb is plucked, the character will hold the bomb until they throw it. If the bomb explodes on them, they take damage.
====New Super Mario Bros. U====
Bombs reappear as an object. Lemmy Koopa has the ability to throw them, and he could throw giant ones. Lemmy throws purple Bombs instead of black.
====Super Mario 3D World====
Bombs appear again in this game, being black like in Super Mario Bros. 2. When a Bob-omb is stomped, they turn to bombs, like Super Mario World.
===Wario series===
====Wario's Woods====
In this game, the use of bombs are Toad's main form of attack when fighting the various monsters that were sent by Wario. Toad receives these multicolored bombs from his sprite helper. In order to defeat Wario's minions (as well as the bosses in the game), Toad has to stack the bombs according to their colors; if the color matches a monster's color, it gets destroyed.
In the Super Nintendo Entertainment System version, Toad can be seen throwing a bomb at Wario's Castle in the ending, destroying his castle and allowing peace to return to the woods.
====Wario World====
Bombs are known as Smiley Bombs in this game.
===Mario Hoops 3-on-3===
Bombs also make an appearance in Mario Hoops 3-on-3. The defending team can sometimes receive one out of the ? Panels on the court. When thrown, they explode, knocking everyone within the blast radius down and spilling some of their collected Coins.
===Luigi's Mansion===
In Luigi's Mansion and its Nintendo 3DS version, bombs appear as large, normal-looking bombs with a skull emblem on them. Purple Bombers will drop a bomb once they are discovered, and bombs are also one of the things Boos will place in rooms (the other being a Boo Ball), which the Boo Radar will pick up as a Boo reading.
===Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon===
In Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, bombs first appear in the Old Clockworks. Ghosts will try to throw them towards Luigi, and in some rooms, if Luigi checks furniture, a bomb will pop out. In the ScareScraper, Bomb Brothers shield themselves with large bombs that must be removed so that they can be flashed with the Strobulb. Bomb Brothers also repeatedly drop smaller bombs while being vacuumed with the Poltergust 5000.
===WarioWare series===
Wario Bombs appear in all WarioWare games. They determine the time remaining in the current microgame. These bombs are often marked with Wario's nose, mouth, and signature.
===Wario Land: Shake It!===
Bombs appear in Wario Land: Shake It! in Boogie Mansion, and are thrown by Peek-a-booms. There is also a bomb block that can be a platform before it explodes. Both can be triggered when touched or when Wario does an Earthshake Punch.
===Super Smash Bros. series===
Certain characters that appear in the Super Smash Bros. series, including Link, Young Link, and Toon Link, can throw bombs to attack. Bombs are also referenced in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. When Peach tries to pull a vegetable from the ground, she may occasionally grab a Bob-omb. The way she plucks a Bob-omb makes reference to the way that she and the other heroes pulled bombs from the ground in Super Mario Bros. 2.
