| |
| 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.
| | '''Bubbles''' is a red balloon fish, and the savior of Clu Clu Land. She appeared in the [[Nintendo]] game called ''Clu Clu Land''. Somehow, Bubbles ended up on [[Mushroom World]] during the events of ''[[DK: King of Swing]]''. Bubbles was the most well-rounded character in the game, with balanced stats of four in both [[Jump]] and Attack. To unlock Bubbles, the [[player]] must clear Diddy Kong Mode and collect all 24 medals. Bubbles can only be used in Jungle Jam Events. |

| | Bubbles made an unexpected cameo in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a trophy. According to the trophy, Bubbles is female, but according to instruction manual of ''Clu Clu Land'', Bubbles is male. An [[Unira]], which is an enemy from Clu Clu Land, is an item in the game ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. |
| Bubbles makes a cameo in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]]. 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]]''. | |

| Bubbles appears as a [[spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. | | ==''WarioWare'' series== |
| | Bubbles appeared in ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'' in one of [[9-Volt]] and [[18-Volt]]'s classic [[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>

| Bubbles is featured in a few [[microgame]]s of the [[WarioWare (series)|''WarioWare'' series]]. In ''[[WarioWare: Twisted!]]'', she appears in [[Clu Clu Land (WarioWare: Twisted!)|Clu Clu Land]], where the player must rotate the screen to guide Bubbles to the item, though if Bubbles misses the item, the player loses. In ''[[WarioWare: Smooth Moves]]'', Bubbles appears in a different microgame titled [[Clu Clu Land (WarioWare: Smooth Moves)|Clu Clu Land]], where she must navigate through the level while avoiding [[Unira]]s and black holes. In ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase]]'', Bubbles appears in another microgame titled [[Clu Clu Land (WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase)|Clu Clu Land]], where the player must press {{button|wii|A}} while pointing a turnpost near Bubbles to have her grab the turnpost and change her direction, all while avoiding Uniras until time runs out.
| | ''The mysterious Bubbles can only move straight ahead and has problems stopping: she changes paths by sticking out her hand and grabbing a post on the way by. If Bubbles makes contact with a Sea Urchin, she'll pop and deflate like a balloon. Bubbles protects herself by shocking Sea Urchins and pushing them into walls to destroy them.'' |
