Shortfuses are barrel-like cannon enemies from Wario Land: Shake It! They first ignite their fuse, then shoot spiky balls at Wario. They are rather common in Ratl Ruins. There is also a golden Shortfuse.

There are two varieties of Shortfuses: brown ones and red ones. The brown ones just stand in place and shoot spiky balls. However, the red variety can jump and shoot Wario while jumping.

Profiles and statistics

  • Website description:
    • English (American):
      This is a Shortfuse. They always look tense to me, with all the shooting spiky balls and stuff. Maybe they shouldn't drink so much coffee.[1]

    • Short in stature with a temper to match, Shortfuses like to stand their ground, firing spiky balls at Wario whenever he moves within range. Handle these little goons as you would most others: Stun them with an Earthshake Punch to make them vulnerable, then simply dash them away. You don't need to stun Shortfuses to defeat them, but it's a lot easier that way![2]
