History

Super Mario series

Super Mario World

Torpedo Hasshadai first appear in Super Mario World in only one level, Soda Lake, where they fire Torpedo Teds that are invincible to all available forms of attack, making the level tricky to traverse. The gloves that dispense the Torpedo Teds have four fingers.

Super Mario Galaxy

Torpedo Hasshadai (generically referred to as torpedo tubes by Prima Games[1][2]) also appear in Super Mario Galaxy, where they sport a different design. They are most often found in the water, and now can be destroyed by leading a Torpedo Ted right back at them.

New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe

Torpedo Teds
Torpedo Hasshadai and the Torpedo Teds in Larry's Torpedo Castle

Torpedo Hasshadai, as well as the Torpedo Teds, return in the Wii U game, New Super Mario Bros. U. They behave and look almost exactly as they do in Super Mario World, with the gloves now having five fingers, and appear in Larry's Torpedo Castle; they are once again invincible. Targeting Teds and Search Torpedo Hasshadai debut in The Mighty Cannonship level, being both obstacles and weapons that appear in the fight with Bowser Jr. While Torpedo Teds reappear in New Super Luigi U, the Torpedo Hasshadai do not.

Super Princess Peach

Torpedo Hasshadai return alongside the Torpedo Teds in the game Super Princess Peach, where they are invincible.

Mario Party 10

Torpedo Hasshadai reappear in Mario Party 10 in the minigame Blooper Blastoff, where they launch Torpedo Teds.
