- —Bowser, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Cannons are used to fire all kinds of projectiles in the Super Mario franchise, including other characters. They have a more generic appearance and use than Bill Blasters, which specifically shoot out Bullet Bills. Cannons are usually part of the environment and cannot be destroyed.
History
Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!
In the animated film Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!, one cannon is seen atop one of the towers of the castle, when Mario, Luigi, and Kibidango are approaching it via the floating ship. A Koopa Troopa is seen manning it, but the ship crumbles atop it before it can be used, toppling it down.
Super Mario series
Super Mario Bros. 3
Cannons make their first game appearance in Super Mario Bros. 3. They continue firing cannonballs when touched and are commonly found on floors, although some are fixed on ceilings. As seen in several airships, grounded cannons are aimed diagonally upwards while ceiling cannons are aimed diagonally downward. These levels may also include four-barreled quartet-cannons and two-barreled diagonal cannons. In the tank and boat levels, other variations are introduced. Some take the form of turrets resembling small pipes that fire straight ahead like Turtle Cannons, some regular-looking cannons act as mortars that eject Bob-ombs at short distances, and some are giant cannons that fire giant cannonballs.
Super Mario World
While no normal cannons appear in Super Mario World, a pipe variety called Pipe Cannons make an appearance. They are slanted pipes that shoot Mario or Luigi diagonally as part of a screen transition.
Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS
Cannons, this time colored blue, are a vital gameplay element in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. There is at least one cannon found in ten levels in these games, as well as one secret stage. Each of the cannons that can be found throughout the games is under the control of Bob-omb Buddies. The player must successfully locate and talk to the Bob-omb Buddies in each level in order to access the cannon or cannons for that particular level. Until they do, the cannons remain covered by a metal hatch with a picture of a Bob-omb Buddy on it, and are inaccessible. The location of each Bob-omb Buddy becomes increasingly difficult to find as Mario progresses through the game.
When a cannon has been unlocked, the metal hatch slides away, revealing a square hole in the ground. In order to use the cannon, Mario needs to only drop down into this hole. The cannon then rises out of the hole, and the player can use it to fire Mario to previously unreachable areas. When Mario has entered a cannon, a targeting reticle appears on the screen, allowing the player to aim the cannon where they want Mario to go. Once the cannon is locked on target, the player must press the 
button to fire (or 
in the remake). The player should aim slightly higher than the area they wish to shoot Mario to, as the height of Mario's trajectory tends to gradually decrease after he is fired from the cannon. Mario will not take falling damage if he is fired from a cannon. If the player collects a Wing Cap before entering a cannon, the player can fly around as Wing Mario immediately after being fired from the cannon, without needing to perform a Triple Jump to take off first. Cannons cannot be unlocked until after the first mission is completed.
In Bob-omb Battlefield, there is a cannon controlled by a Bob-omb that Mario can never access due to the cannon shooting water bombs.
There is also a cannon outside the Mushroom Castle, though it is covered by a small metal grate as opposed to a metal hatch. The cannon can be unlocked and used only after Mario has collected all 120 Power Stars in the game. When the cannon is used, the player is able to access the roof of the Mushroom Castle, where Yoshi and a hidden Wing Cap await. For the DS version, if 150 Power Stars are collected, Luigi can capture the green minigame rabbit from the roof.
In the Whomp's Fortress mission "Blast Away the Wall," Mario must shoot himself out of a cannon in order to obliterate the topmost section of a nearby wall, which releases the hidden Power Star.
Super Mario Sunshine
In Super Mario Sunshine, there are very few Cannons,[1] most of which are operated by Monty Moles. These cannons are completely red in color, have a large dome shape, and have three openings from which multiple Bullet Bills, Purple Bullet Bills, and Golden Bullet Bills can be shot. They effectively take the place of Bill Blasters in this regard. When Mario approaches the cannons, the Monty Moles cease firing Bullet Bills at him, and instead begin pelting Mario with multiple Bob-ombs, which Mario must diffuse (by spraying them) and then throw back at the mole to defeat it.
The first cannon that is encountered in this game is found on the upper west side of Delfino Plaza. When Mario first comes across it, a Pianta mechanic working inside it tells Mario that it is unfortunately out of order, and therefore unable to be used at the moment. However, after Shadow Mario has kidnapped Princess Peach and taken her to Pinna Island, the cannon becomes accessible, and Mario is able to use it to shoot himself to Pinna Island to pursue Shadow Mario. From this point on, the cannon continues to act as Mario's only means of transport to Pinna Park, which he must return to every time he wishes to travel there. When Mario enters this cannon, he is automatically shot to the island, without needing to aim first.
The second cannon in the game can be found near the entrance to Pinna Park, and is manned by a Monty Mole. In the episode "The Beach Cannon's Secret", Mario must dodge incoming Bullet Bills and make his way to the cannon, where he must throw Bob-ombs at the Monty Mole to defeat it. After it has been defeated, Mario must enter the cannon's opening to complete a Secret Level and return to Delfino Plaza. Mario can also use the Bullet Bills fired from the cannon as an opportunity to collect many Blue Coins, which are hidden under baskets that can only be broken open by Bullet Bills.
The third and final cannon in the game is found in Episode 1 of Noki Bay. In this episode, the cannon is positioned atop an extremely large cork, and continuously shoots out Glorpedoes which gradually fall down cliff faces and cause widespread pollution in the area. Mario must make his way to the top area of Noki Bay until he reaches the area with the cannon. Again, he must defuse Bob-ombs and then throw them back at the Monty Mole to defeat it. This time, the entire cannon explodes when defeated, and the cork blocking the waterfall is dislodged, releasing the Shine Sprite for that episode.
New Super Mario Bros.
A type of cannon called a Warp Cannon appears in New Super Mario Bros. These cannons blast Mario or Luigi to a different world. They are usually unlocked by finding a red-flag exit in a level. Upright Pipe Cannons also appear, and this time blast Mario or Luigi straight upwards when entered.
Super Mario Galaxy
Cannons reappear in Super Mario Galaxy. These cannons appear to be more advanced than the cannons from Super Mario 64 and they largely fulfill the same role as in that game. They also have much more precise aiming, since the player uses the 
to aim. The 
button fires the cannon and Mario or Luigi can get to high places and Power Stars. He is not shot in an arc, however. He keeps going in a straight line and can lose a life if shot out of the gameplay area, as he does not fall down unless he hits a surface.
In the Super Mario 3D All-Stars version of Super Mario Galaxy, the player can no longer pan the camera while in cannons by holding down 
and moving the controller away from the screen, due to the lack of a Sensor Bar.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, upward-pointed mortars that fire Bob-ombs reappear in World 4-
Airship. The upward and downward-pointed cannons that fire cannonballs diagonally from Super Mario Bros. 3 appear in World 8-Airship, and now routinely rotate their barrel to the other direction before firing again. In addition, the rotating quartet-cannons and horizontal giant cannons return in this level.
Warp Cannons and Pipe Cannons from New Super Mario Bros. also appear.
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Cannons once again appear in Super Mario Galaxy 2. However, they only appear in Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker, where they are mostly used in place of Launch Stars. In the Throwback Galaxy, the cannon from Whomp's Fortress is replaced by a Sling Star. Cannons in these games are mostly the same as the original, but there is a target to land on. If the hero manages to hit the center, he gets an extra life.
Super Mario 3D Land
Cannons appear in Super Mario 3D Land in several levels, with a similar function to Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy. However, it can now controlled by moving the Nintendo 3DS around, just like the binoculars. Cannons are also provided by Toad for either Mario or Luigi, and are often found in the level after his Toad House stage. These cannons are used by the heroes to gain access to the airship levels where either Boom Boom or Pom Pom appear to challenge them.
The cannons in this game share the same color scheme of that with a black body and blue outlines.
New Super Mario Bros. 2
Warp Cannons return in New Super Mario Bros. 2, though they act much different than before. In addition to a dark blue color scheme instead of a black color scheme, they gain access to 'Dash Mario' stages, which have Mario or Luigi continuously running through a short Subspace-esque setting dodging enemies and timing jumps to get through the level, with optional coins to collect which also act as a guide to getting through the level. Collecting a row of coins causes a audience to clap. Completing these stages allows Mario to gain access to other worlds.
Pipe Cannons also return from the previous games, acting much in the same way. These pipes first appear in World 1-A. Mortars that fire Bob-ombs also reappear, though they launch them as Para-bombs in this game, which fly farther. Some of these objects rotate left and right between Para-bomb shots.
New Super Mario Bros. U
In New Super Mario Bros. U, boss cannons[2] take an important role in castles. After Mario, Luigi, Yellow Toad, and Blue Toad finish the castle, they run up a flight of stairs and jump inside the cannon and blast into one of the Koopalings' airships and start the Koopaling battle. Pipe Cannons also appear in levels and in the world map, the latter of which is used to travel to other worlds. The normal cannons and giant cannons from Super Mario Bros. 3 also appear and act in the same way; they appear in The Mighty Cannonship as well as in the Bowser's Airship Sneak and Airship 1-Up Rally challenges.
Super Mario 3D World / Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury
Cannons also appear in Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury in the Tank levels during cutscenes at the beginning of the levels near Sprixies to transport the player to the stage and as enemies, most prominently appearing in World Star-9 (Cosmic Cannon Cluster), and attack like in previous games. If a Brick Block is destroyed under a cannon, it changes into a Cannon Box, which can be used to attack enemies and destroy cracked walls.
Super Mario Maker / Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS
Cannons reappear in Super Mario Maker and Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS in all styles. They fire cannonballs once more, and can be set in one of eight directions. The game introduces a red variation that fires red cannonballs which travel faster. Adding a Super Mushroom makes it larger. Unlike Bill Blasters, items and enemies cannot be placed inside a cannon; therefore, it can only shoot cannonballs. They can be defeated by big Stilettos.
In all styles except the New Super Mario Bros. U style, while the editor icons depict a unique sprite of a cannon aimed diagonally, the level sprite for such a cannon is actually the horizontal or vertical cannon sprite rotated 45 degrees, as shown in the image on the right.
The American English description from the Nintendo 3DS eShop erroneously says that cannons can shoot coins.
Super Mario Run
In Super Mario Run, cannons are timed to fire cannonballs at specific moments during their on-screen duration. This careful timing can be used to gain height from the air when playing Airship levels (2-4, 4-4, 6-3). They spawn in single sets, but also double and triples, giving players more space to bounce off of when facing a barrage of cannonballs.
Super Mario Maker 2
Cannons and their red variations return in Super Mario Maker 2, where they behave as they did in the game's predecessor, appearing in all styles except the Super Mario 3D World style.
In the version 3.0.0 update for Super Mario Maker 2, the Cannon Box appears as a power-up.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder
Cannons reappear in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, first appearing in Fluff-Puff Peaks Flying Battleship, firing Bob-ombs for the first time since New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but can also fire Bullet Bills as well. They are colored black similar to the Super Mario Maker games.
Donkey Kong (Game Boy)
In Donkey Kong for the Game Boy, cannons appear in a variety of forms. In the Desert, the cannons have a dated look taken from the Middle Ages (the image on the left); on the Airplane, cannons are made out of steel and look more contemporary (middle image). Both types of cannons retain the same basic function and fire out bullets that look like Bullet Biffs, acting similar to the seed-spitting Dōryī except they sometimes fire two shots at a time. In later Airplane levels, different cannons charge up energy balls and routinely change their angle of fire, shooting diagonally and upwards as well (the image on the right). If Mario gets hit by any of their projectiles, he loses a life.
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest / Donkey Kong Land 2
In Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2, cannons,[3] primarily spelled as kannons,[4] show up in certain levels with dormant kannonballs. To activate a kannon, Diddy and Dixie Kong must throw a kannonball into it, and then enter it; it launches the Kongs to a Bonus Area. They first appear in Mainbrace Mayhem, and only appear in levels with kannonballs (not being shot). There is also a Kremling enemy named Kannon, whose name is based on the kannon it carries around.
Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
A cannon makes a brief appearance in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System version of Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. After the Kongs defeat Belcha, a cannon pops up on top of Belcha's Barn and blasts the Kongs back to the start of Lake Orangatanga. It does not appear in the Game Boy Advance version as that version immediately returns the player back to the main overworld after defeating a boss.
Donkey Kong 64
A single cannon appears in Donkey Kong 64 in the Gloomy Galleon stage. To use it, Chunky Kong must put a cannonball into it. He must use the cannon to fire cannonballs at moving targets on the wall. By hitting enough targets, Chunky is awarded with a Golden Banana.
Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)
In Donkey Kong Country for the Game Boy Color, the cannons of the Gang-Plank Galleon appear as targets in the final stage of Crosshair Cranky, where they must be destroyed before they fire on the player.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong series
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
In Mario vs. Donkey Kong and its remake, two types of cannons appear. In Mystic Forest and Mystic Forest Plus, there are cannons mounted on walls that shoot cannonballs, tilting up and down. Touching these cannonballs will defeat Mario. In those worlds in addition to Twilight City and Twilight City Plus, slightly bigger, stationary, upward-facing cannons also show up as generators for Bob-ombs.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis / Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!
Cannons later appear in boss fights against Donkey Kong in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis and its sequel Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!. To use them, the player must use the stylus to move the handle to aim. To fire, the player must tap the "Shoot" button.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!
Cannons appear as common objects in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!, first appearing in Cannon Cove as the main object. They also appear as the main weapon against the final boss, like in the previous games. There are two types: multidirectional cannons and cannons that aim in one direction, with the latter moving vertically or horizontally.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars
Multidirectional Cannons reappear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars, where they act the same as in their previous appearance. Cannon Kongs, Kong toys with cannons for bodies, also appear.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Although no regular, harmful cannons appear in the game, pot cannons make an appearance as the first helpful cannons of the Super Mario franchise in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and its remake. They appear in Land's End and help Mario to reach higher places.
Mario & Luigi series
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions
A cannon also appears in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions. After the crash of the Koopa Cruiser, Bowser gets stuck in it, and tells Mario and Luigi to get him out. They can not, however. Tolstar then tells them that he will help them get Bowser out if they collect 100 Beanbean coins. The Mario Bros. obtain the coins, but Tolstar betrays them. Mario and Luigi then defeat Tolstar in a battle, but Sergeant Starshade comes out and lights the fuse of the cannon, sending Bowser to crash into Hoohoo Mountain. The Cannon then disappears, allowing Mario and Luigi to pass.
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
Cannon items appear in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. They are named Cannonballers, and are one of the many Bros. Items in the game.
Paper Mario series
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
A cannon called big bomb cannon appears in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, in the Fahr Outpost area. This cannon is vital for Mario in the game. He has to use it in order to shoot himself up to the Moon. The cannon itself is big enough that it can fit more than 100 Bob-ombs inside of it. The Bob-ombs are needed to fire the cannon off.
Paper Mario: Color Splash
Cannons appear in Paper Mario: Color Splash on the Violet Passage captain's ship. Mario must use the cannons to fire Cannonballs in order to get through the Violet Passage.
Yoshi Topsy-Turvy
Cannons appear in Yoshi Topsy-Turvy. Yoshi can go inside one by jumping at its top, and by tilting the Game Boy Advance to the left or the right, the cannon tilts to the respective direction.
Mario Pinball Land
In Mario Pinball Land, a cannon appears behind every trapdoor in the sunken ship of the Frosty Frontier Stage and in Porcupuffer's rematch room in the Fiery Stage. Hitting a trapdoor causes its cannon to shoot a cannonball bomb into the area. Two cannons also appear in the Bob-omb minigame from Toad's tent in the Fun Fair, shooting Bob-ombs onto the playfield when the Blue Switch is activated. In addition, a type of cannon called a Sky Cannon appears in this game.
Mario Party series
In Mario Party 4 and Mario Party: The Top 100, four cannons appear in the 1-vs-3 minigame Hide and Go BOOM!, as the hiding spots of the three players. The fourth player lights the fuse to fire the cannons to send them flying.
A cannon has appeared in Mario Party 7 as an orb in Pagoda Peak.
In Mario Party 8, on the board DK's Treetop Temple, characters can use cannons to blast to a space somewhere at the top of the map for five coins. On the board Goomba's Booty Boardwalk, Pirate Goombas use cannons to blast any characters who land on the respective ? Space back to the start.
Cannons appear in Mario Party DS. They appear on the board, Bowser's Pinball Machine, where they are scattered on sides of the board. If the player lands on the space next to the cannon, they hop in it. Then they have to draw a line in the direction they want to land. They then land on a bumper that they bounce off of. After they bounce off the bumper, they land on a space. A Cannon also appears as a collectible. It is a board feature from Bowser's Pinball Machine. The figure can be unlocked by being launched by a cannon on Bowser's Pinball Machine three times.
Cannons also appeared in the Mario Party: Island Tour minigame Cannonball!, where players have to travel the farthest by firing themselves out of the cannon.
