[[Image:BobombNSMBU.png|thumb|right|215px|A Bob-omb walking left.]]

Bob-ombs, as well as Para Bob-ombs, reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. In the second and final fights with [[Bowser Jr.]], he throws bob-ombs at Mario.

The appearance of the Bob-omb is similar to that in the games, though there are some differences. For instance, the wind-up key appears on the side rather than on its back, and its eyes are smaller and more circular than their in-game appearances. Additionally, when Mario places the bomb on the ground, it walks like a wind-up toy. Additionally, before the Bob-omb explodes from underneath Koopa, the [[Wikipedia:Reebok|Reebok]] brand name as well as the [[Wikipedia:Union Jack|Union Jack]] (often used on their brand name products) can be seen on the underside of the feet.

Bob-ombs also appeared in ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'', where they first appeared in [[Moleville Mines]]. Here, they are mere enemies roaming around [[Moleville]]'s local mining mountain, although they are featured quite prominently in the battle with [[Punchinello]]. In said battle, Punchinello would summon three Bob-omb-type enemies (including the new subspecies [[Micro Bomb]]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 tried his Bob-omb-summoning act one more time by creating a huge Bob-omb, although this piece of ammunition only ended up squishing him and allowing Mario and his party to collect the [[Star Piece (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Star Piece]] he was guarding and save [[Dyna and Mite Mole]]. In battle, Bob-ombs had average stats and no special attacks, however, when threatened, they could explode in a kamikaze attempt to cause one ally a lot of damage. Later in ''Super Mario RPG'', a [[Rob-omb|stronger, purple shoe-clad variety]] of Bob-omb appeared in [[Booster Tower]].

===''Yoshi's Story''===

Bob-ombs, here referred to as '''Bomb-ombs''', first appearance chronologically was ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. Bob-ombs appear during level 5-4: [[Shy Guy's Ship]] where they are fired by [[Pirate Guy]] ships' [[cannon]]s. They also appear during [[Yoshi]]'s battle with [[Baby Bowser]] at the end of the game, where Baby Bowser would attack the hero by throwing Bob-ombs at him from the back of his large green "[[Baby Bowser's Pet|pet]]". Yoshi could actually use these Bob-ombs against him, by licking them up and throwing them at the ceiling of the room, causing large stalactites from the ceiling to fall onto Baby Bowser, eventually knocking him off the back of his pet so that Yoshi could battle him hand-to-hand.

 

In battle, Bob-ombs have the same attacks as they did in the first two games. If a First Strike is landed on it before battle or if the enemy is damaged during battle, it will have its fuse lit and will explode the next time it comes in contact with Mario. They may occasionally drop a [[Sticker (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|Bomb Sticker]] after battle. [[Shiny Bob-omb]]s are also introduced in this game. Bowser Jr. also uses a stack of three of them as a weapon in-battle.

Bob-ombs are semi-common enemies in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. Their attack pattern is similar to that of the ''Paper Mario'' Bob-ombs; however, they also have the power to defuse themselves at will. If a Bob-omb spots Mario or Luigi, it will light its fuse and begin to run around frantically, initiating battle if touched. When defeated, the Bob-ombs in this game occasionally drop a Red Pepper.

====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''====

 

}}

Bob-ombs appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. Here, they are found in [[Gritzy Desert]]. They can ram to attack the Mario Bros., but can sometimes trick them by running toward one Bro., then looking the other way and attacking the opposite bro. After they take at least twenty-three damage, they either run and explode into a brother or walk back and forth and explode into a chosen brother, which can be avoided by a [[Hammer]]. A new sub-species of Bob-omb appears later in the game, called [[Lethal Bob-omb]]. Also, a large [[Shroob]] version, called [[Shroob-omb]], is used by [[Commander Shroob]].
