The appearance of a flamethrower varies depending on the [[level]]:
*In all of the [[Bowser]] levels and [[Rainbow Ride]], flamethrowers are stone and diamond-shaped.
*In [[Big Boo's Haunt]]'s merry-go-round, one of the [[Boo]] portraits acts as a flamethrower.
*In the [[Hazy Maze Cave]], there are two fire plumes that come out of the [[pit]] before the [[Red Coin]] area, which act like flamethrowers.
*In the main course of [[Lethal Lava Land]], one appears near the volcano as a black brick. There are also fire plumes along the path of the moving [[platform]] that takes the player to the [[Power Star]] for [[Red-Hot Log Rolling]]. Inside the volcano, they appear as holes in the walls.
*Rainbow Ride also has a blue flamethrower under the spinning platform next to the [[Rainbow Cruiser]], and a fireplace that acts like a flamethrower in the [[Cloud House]]. The blue flamethrower does not return in ''Super Mario 64 DS''.
About every three seconds, a flamethrower shoots a stream of fire from its center. If hit by the flames, the player's character will lose three health wedges and run around in a panic, making it difficult for the player to control him. If the character [[jump]]s repeatedly while he is on fire, his movement will be limited, and he may lose only two health wedges.


In ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'', flamethrowers appear only in [[Fury Volcano]] as obstacles. Each periodically shoots out flames that block [[Princess Peach]]'s path and damage her if she comes into contact. Flamethrowers also appear in the minigame [[Toad Tote]].
Pyro Boxes appear in all of [[Bowser]]'s levels and [[Lethal Lava Land]]. Two also appear in [[Rainbow Ride]]. These boxes are diamond-shaped with a hole in the center. About every three seconds, a Pyro Box shoots a stream of fire from its center. Pyro Boxes cannot be destroyed.

If hit by the flames, [[Mario]] will lose three life points. Additionally, Mario will run around uncontrollably, possibly forcing the plumber over the edge of a cliff. If Mario jumps around while he's on fire, he may only take two points of damage.
