Bramballs can be defeated by jumping on the ball in the center, freezing them as [[Ice Mario]] or [[Penguin Mario]] and [[Ground Pound]]ing on them while frozen, hitting them with [[Fire Mario]]'s [[fireball]]s, or a [[Super Star|Star]]. Hitting them from underneath will release [[Coin]]s and cause them to temporarily stop flipping over. Hitting them while launching out of a [[Pipe Cannon]] instantly defeats one and causes them to release twenty Coins. There are two types of Bramballs: ones that do not move their mouths and ones that do move their mouths. The ones that move their mouths are faster.

Bramballs in pre-release builds were shown to have [[List of New Super Mario Bros. Wii pre-release and unused content#Enemy Changes|brown feet]], instead of yellow.

Bramballs are enemies in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', being encountered in [[Bramball Woods]] and [[Heart of Bramball Woods]] respectively. In this appearance, their heads turn out completely orange and a leaf sprouts from it at every vocal "[[Paah]]" in the music, similar to regular Pokeys in newer appearances. If Mario hits the underside of a Bramball in this state, it will drop a large number of coins instead of just one. Tapping on one using Boost Mode would cause one to smile and turn the other way.

====''New Super Luigi U''====
Bramballs return in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', acting the exact same way as in previous titles. They are only found in [[Heart of Bramball Woods]].

Bramballs are course elements in ''[[Mario Golf: Super Rush]]''. They appear in [[Shelltop Sanctuary]] and the Forest course of [[Target Golf]]. In Shelltop Sanctuary, four of them stand in a row on a waste area, while one stands on two elevated slabs of stone. If hit by a golf ball, the Bramballs will rotate their head all the way around.
