This article is about the item used by Fire Mario. For the enemy often called a "fireball" by fans, see Podoboo.
Fireball ball

Fireballs are Mario's signature attack in most games of the Mario Bros. Series. Mario can manipulate fire, and use it to torch enemies by shooting a fireball out of his fingers. He is usually able to use this move when he collects a Fire Flower, but there are some exceptions. Luigi could also use this attack, but Luigi has recently used a green Fireball. Some enemies are immune to Fireballs such as Thwomps and Buzzy Beetles. Fire Bros. and Venus Fire Traps can shoot Fireballs as well.

Game appearances[]

Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Remastered[]

In Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Remastered, the Fireball returns as Mario's Special Item, though they travel further. Luigi can no longer use the Fireball item, as she now has the Iceball as his Special Item, which freezes players instead of spinning and burning them.

Koopa Kart series[]

Koopa Kart: Double Trouble!![]

The Fireball is Goomba and Galoomba's Special Item in Koopa Kart: Double Trouble!!. It can be obtained from 3rd to 6th place. When used, five fireballs will spew out at once, spinning out nearby targets and bouncing off walls. The fireballs will disappear after travelling a set distance. It is the only Koopa Kart: Double Trouble!! item to not return in Koopa Kart Tour.
