===''Clu Clu Land''===
[[File:VS. Pinball gameplay.png|thumb|170px|''VS. Pinball'']]
Bubbles made her first appearance in the game ''Clu Clu Land'', as a playable character. The game was released for the [[NES]], and the point of the game was for Bubbles to collect all the golden ingots.
Bubbles appears in the international version of ''[[Pinball (game)|VS. Pinball]]'', replacing the red [[Family BASIC#Sprites|Achilles]] from the Japanese version as the character that returns the ball into play if the player hatches three pink [[chick]]s and the ball falls below the bottom of [[scene B]]. This appearance predates her appearance in ''Clu Clu Land'' by about a month. She is depicted wearing no gloves and blue or green shoes instead of red gloves and orange shoes.
 
Since ''[[Arcade Archives]] Pinball'' only emulates the original Japanese version of ''VS. Pinball'', Bubbles does not appear in that rerelease.

An [[Unira]], which is an enemy from ''Clu Clu Land'', is an item in the games ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]] / [[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

====''WarioWare: Twisted!''====
Bubbles appeared in ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'' in [[Clu Clu Land (WarioWare: Twisted!)|one]] of [[9-Volt]] and [[18-Volt]]'s classic [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] videogames. The player must rotate the screen in order to make them collect a [[Coin]]. If the Coin was missed, the player would lose the [[microgame]].


According to series director [[Masahiro Sakurai]], before the [[Ice Climbers]] were chosen to represent the "retro" gaming era, Bubbles was considered as a potential character instead, among other candidates such as the fighter from ''{{iw|nwiki|Urban Champion}}'', [[Balloon Fighter]] from ''{{iw|nwiki|Balloon Fight}}'', an ''{{iw|nwiki|Excitebike}}'' racer, and Ayumi Tachibana from the ''{{iw|nwiki|Famicom Detective Club}}'' series. Sakurai decided against Bubbles because he did not know how she would fight.<ref>{{cite|author=Soma|date=April 29, 2016|url=sourcegaming.info/2016/04/29/duflupdate|title=The Definitive Unused Fighters List in Smash|publisher=Source Gaming|accessdate=August 15, 2021}}</ref>
