History
New Super Mario Bros.
One Super Whomp makes an appearance in New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo DS, where it resides in the World 3 castle. It can be defeated through use of a Ground Pound. It behaves in the same way as normal Whomps, only it can walk around freely instead of staying stationary in the background and falling on Mario or Luigi.
New Super Mario Bros. 2
Super Whomps reappear in New Super Mario Bros. 2. They appear in World Mushroom-Castle, like the other games it will need a ground pound to defeat, though a few are seen in a World Star level. In this game, Super Whomps are again able to walk around, but they can also be seen in the background. Once a Super Whomp in the background falls, there can be Coins, Roulette Blocks or even a Red Ring behind them.
