'''Missile Bills''' (also called '''Heat-Seeking Bullet Bills''', '''Bull's-Eye Bills''', '''Homing Bullet Bills''', or simply '''Red Bullet Bills''') are the red heat-seeking visualized variants of the [[Bullet Bill]] species. They attack by homing on the player.
==History==
==''Super Mario Bros. 3''==▼
===''Super Mario'' series===
▲====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
Their first appearance is in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. In this game, a Missile Bill turns around once if it misses its target, but continues going forward without turning around anymore after missing twice.
====''Super Mario Sunshine''====

Similar Bills make another appearance in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' at [[Pinna Park]]'s beach. In this appearance, they are purple and shot from the [[Monty Mole]]'s [[Cannon (Super Mario Sunshine)|cannon]]. They always home in, so there is no way [[Mario]] can easily outrun them. They can destroy the baskets on the beach which hold [[Blue Coin]]s; this is the only way to open them. Missile Bills explode when they make contact with an object, or if Mario squirts water at them. There is a gold version that will make [[coin]]s appear if Mario jumps on it. During the final battle, [[Bowser Jr.]] sends some regular ones and also a blue one that will let out a [[1-Up Mushroom]] or a [[Water Bottle]] if stomped on.
====''New Super Mario
Missile Bills appear in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' however this time, they do not home on the player but rather move faster than regular Bullet Bills. In the third round of the minigame [[Superstar Showdown]], [[Bowser]]'s [[Koopa Clown Car]] "spits" the Missile Bills at the player. They move much faster than the ordinary Bullet Bills in the previous round.▼
▲==''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''==
[[File:9-3nsmbwii.png|thumb|250px|Missile Bills, from ''New Super Mario Bros Wii''.]]
They also reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]''. They resemble normal Bullet Bills, but when one sees Mario, it will make a beeping noise and start flashing red. Here, they have a similar attack pattern to the one they did in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. However, in this game, they can change the angle they are flying at and will not stop pursuing the player until they are defeated or the player has gotten far enough away. They only appear in [[World 9 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)#World 9-3|World 9-3]], alongside a new sub-species, [[Missile Banzai Bill]]s.
====''New Super Mario
Missile Bills make a comeback in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' in the minigame, [[Billistics]], where they appear alongside Bullet Bills. In this game, Missile Bills make beeping radar noises. This is a way to tell if a Missile Bill is coming. Like in other appearances, Missile Bills will home in on the player, but when a Missile Bill misses, it will not turn around, similar to ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' when a Missile Bill misses twice.▼
==''New Super Mario Bros. U''==▼
In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', Missile Bills make a comeback, appearing only during the [[Roy Koopa]] battle at the [[Rock-Candy Mines]]. They are seen being shot out of Roy's Bullet Bill cannon. In this case though, after some time of unsuccessfully chasing Mario, it self-destructs, blowing up like a [[Fire Chomp]].
===''Mario Party'' series===
▲Missile Bills appear in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' however this time, they do not home on the player but rather move faster than regular Bullet Bills. In the third round of the minigame [[Superstar Showdown]], [[Bowser]]'s [[Koopa Clown Car]] "spits" the Missile Bills at the player. They move much faster than the ordinary Bullet Bills in the previous round.

==Trivia==
*In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' and other games, Bullet Bills in those games act the same way as Missile Bills attack, by homing in on Mario.
*[[List of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga beta elements|They were]] going to make a reappearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', but were scrapped for a reason unknown.
