Bob-ombs appear again in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', marking the first instance of an enemy or character from ''Yume Kōjō: Doki Doki Panic'' being integrated into the mainline ''Super Mario'' games beyond ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. Here, if Mario stomps on one, it becomes stationary and capable of being carried and kicked. However, it explodes after a few moments, even if Mario is carrying it. Also, they lack the arms they had in the previous game. Some are simply found walking and have rotating keys on their backs, while others are shot from mortars and lack keys. The keyless Bob-ombs will explode after a few seconds, even if they have not been stomped first. They also walk slightly faster and are slightly smaller. Originally, Bob-ombs were black in this game, but remakes changed the keyed ones to blue, and the keyless ones to purple.

A tail hit from [[Raccoon Mario]] or [[Tanooki Mario]] defeats a Bob-omb immediately rather than making it stationary for a while, which is different in ''Super Mario World''. Bob-ombs are completely immune to fire in this game, unlike later games, where fire typically lights their fuses.

Bob-ombs appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', acting like they do in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. If Mario stomps on them or throws a [[fireball]] at them as [[Fire Mario]], they become stationary and explode after a few seconds. Before they explode, Mario can pick them up and throw them. Their explosions can destroy almost all types of blocks, sometimes allowing the player to access [[Star Coin]]s. They appear in [[World 4-5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|Worlds 4-5]] and [[World 7-5 (New Super Mario Bros.)|7-5]], and in the battle with [[Monty Tank]] in {{world-link|6|castlen|World 6-Castle (New Super Mario Bros.)}} A Bob-omb variant called [[Kab-omb]] makes its first appearance in this game, only appearing in [[World 8-8 (New Super Mario Bros.)|World 8-8]].

The Bob-ombs are used prominently in two [[Bob-omb Blasting]] mini-games: one in the [[Battlerock Galaxy]] and one in the [[Dreadnought Galaxy]]. They are used when a [[Gearmo]] asks [[Mario]] to get rid of a bunch of trash piles for him. It must be done within a time limit of thirty seconds, however, and the prize for winning is a [[Power Star]].

Bob-ombs appear once again as generic enemies in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. In this game, they usually endlessly spawn from Warp Pipes and walk around aimlessly until they explode. They make their first appearance in {{world-link|3|castle|World 3-Castle (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. In this game, their fuses light when they are hit by a fireball coming from either [[Fire Mario]] or a [[Fire Piranha Plant|Venus Fire Trap]], and they instantly explode if they hit lava or a flame from a [[burner]]. Like in other games, jumping on a Bob-omb or hitting one with a Fire Flower simply immobilizes it. Shooting one with a fireball from Fire Mario causes a coin to appear, and an additional coin appears for every time it is shot up to five times.

Bob-ombs appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. Like in the other 3D ''Super Mario'' games, contact with Bob-ombs does not harm [[Mario]]. Stomping on one makes it stop chasing Mario and hide its legs; it explodes soon afterward. Shooting a Bob-omb with a [[fireball]] makes it explode immediately. Due to the Super Leaves being blown all across the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], a new kind of Bob-omb called a [[Tail Bob-omb]] appears in this game. [[Rocky Wrench]]es may sometimes throw Bob-ombs instead of wrenches in some of the levels.

They can be attacked to transform them into regular bombs, which can be thrown. In this game, [[Baddie Box]]es only release Bob-ombs. Cat variants appear in [[Lake Lapcat]].

Bob-ombs appear in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', its [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|Nintendo 3DS version]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They can be shaken to light their fuse. Due to them not appearing in the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' game style, they were given new sprites. They have been given more detailed sprites in the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' style than they originally appeared. By jumping on them, they stay still and their fuse ignites, and after a few seconds, they explode. They can also be made bigger or made to fly. They can destroy [[Hard Block]]s, [[Ice Block]]s, [[? Block]]s and [[Brick Block]]s. When a Bob-omb explodes near coins, the coins fall out of the air and disappear after a few moments. Bob-ombs in this game can also be ignited by [[Yoshi]], fire-related objects, being crushed, and other Bob-ombs.

Bob-ombs received a few differences in ''Super Mario Maker 2''. With the absence of the shaking function, lit Bob-ombs are now added by holding a regular version and tapping the lit variant. Like many enemies and items, Bob-ombs can be given a parachute to become [[Parabomb]]s, but unlike the majority of enemies, Bob-ombs do not exhibit any unusual behavior in the Ground courses during the night.

While walking, Bob-ombs explode upon contact with a [[Spike Ball]] or a [[Fire Bar]], and can be defeated by attacking them with [[Roll|a landing roll or a rolling jump]].

As they are fleeing from [[President Koopa|Koopa]]'s [[Goomba (film species)|Goomba]]s, Luigi notices that a [[The King|fungus]] growth appears to be offering them the explosive, but Mario drags him away before he can accept it. Later, after they leave the [[Boom Boom Bar]], the fungus again offers them the Bob-omb. This time, Luigi manages to grab it before he and Mario escape.

Bob-ombs also appear in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|the Switch remake]], where they first appear in the [[Mole Mines]]. Here, they are normal enemies roaming around [[Moleville]]'s local mining mountain, although they are featured quite prominently in the battle with [[Punchinello]]. In said battle, Punchinello summons three Bob-omb-type enemies (including new types, [[Microbomb]]s and [[Mezzo Bomb]]s) for every three defeated, each getting larger and more powerful every "stage" or Punchinello's remaining health. Towards the end of his battle, a seemingly insane Punchinello tries his Bob-omb-summoning act one more time by creating [[King Bomb|a huge Bob-omb]], although this one only ends up squishing him and allowing Mario and his party to collect the [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG)|Star Piece]] he was guarding and save [[Dyna & Mite]]. In battle, Bob-ombs have average stats and no special attacks; however, when threatened, they can explode in a kamikaze attempt to cause one ally a lot of damage.
Bob-ombs also appear in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|the Switch remake]], where they first appear in the [[Mole Mines]]. Here, they are normal enemies roaming around [[Moleville]]'s local mining mountain, although they are featured quite prominently in the battle with [[Punchinello]]. In said battle, Punchinello summons three Bob-omb-type enemies (including new types, [[Microbomb]]s and [[Mezzo Bomb]]s) for every three defeated, each getting larger and more powerful every "stage" or Punchinello's remaining health.

If the player already has four allies, it will force its way in, causing the player to lose one of their allies. They also appear on the same board when landing on certain [[Event Space]]s, in which they will let players who land on it ride a minecart to the opposite side of the board.

Bob-ombs appear both as allies and enemies in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. A few can first be found in [[Koopa Village]]. These Bob-ombs explained to [[Mario]] and his partners that they had been kidnapped and enslaved by the [[Koopa Bros.]]. When Mario reaches the [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]] he finds (and is attacked by) several Bob-ombs employed by [[Bowser]]. These Bob-ombs have two basic attacks: the first is simply to ram themselves into Mario, and the other is to light themselves, walk up to Mario, and explode right next to him. It appears that Bob-ombs can explode at will and as many times as they want outside of battle.

Bob-ombs return in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'' as enemies present in [[Fort Cobalt]], [[Redpepper Crater]], and [[Black Bowser's Castle]]. On some occasions, their fuses are lit as soon as the battle starts, and even standard hammer attacks can damage Mario. The Fire Flower or Hurlhammer can be used to detonate them without damaging Mario, and the explosion also damages other enemies or immediately detonates other Bob-ombs. Projectile or shell attacks from most Enemy Cards can safely hit them, even if their fuses are lit. The Ice Flower can be used to put out their fuse, which forces them to spend their turn reigniting it. In Redpepper Crater, their fuses can be lit from fireballs thrown by Fire Bros. In Black Bowser's Castle, Bob-ombs are used to destroy [[crate]]s and ignite [[Mega Bob-omb]]s in order to destroy the black paint factory in the castle.

An allied Bob-omb summoned with an Enemy Card will immediately use their explosion attack on the closest enemy, similar to the Bomb attack seen in previous games - this deals 25 damage but instantly destroys the Bob-omb as well, making it the only attack that sacrifices or damages the user, and making an allied Bob-omb's victory animation impossible to see.

In the [[Bowser Badlands]] golf course, large Bob-ombs can be found half-buried around the course. If the ball hits one, it momentarily explodes and sends the ball flying elsewhere.

Bob-ombs are semi-common enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. They appear in [[Beanbean Fields]], and sometimes assist [[Paratroopea]]s and [[Tanoomba]]s as well. If a Bob-omb spots Mario or Luigi in the overworld, it lights its fuse and begins to run around frantically. Its attack pattern is similar to that of the ''Paper Mario'' Bob-ombs; however, they always attempt to blow up their targets, and they can relight their fuses at will. This attack can cause a bro to become [[dizzy]], although it can be countered with a well-timed hammer near the approaching foe (as hitting them also triggers the explosion). When defeated, they occasionally drop a [[Nut]] or a [[Red Pepper]].

Bob-ombs are one of the enemies that may appear when Junker empties a Junker Can. Also, after turning thin again, Bowser starts literally burning fat, and the fire lights several bins filled with Bob-ombs, and the explosion blasts Bowser into the [[Tunnel]]. They are also present in the underground of Bowser's Castle and near the roof of Peach's Castle, being obstacles that the brothers and Bowser must pass by leaping over them. Bob-ombs also appear out of the rocks held by [[Pendril]]s when they are smashed with a hammer by Mario or Luigi. Also, during the [[Blizzard Midbus]] battle, one Bob-omb sticks out of the massive snowball he uses to attack. Bowser must punch this to avoid having the snowball rolled into him, as well as damaging Blizzard Midbus once done. When his health is halved, he occasionally covers it. Bob-ombs are also among the enemies used by Dark Bowser after being healed by Fawful; they must be deflected by punching them, causing them to explode and defeat any enemies within the blast radius.
