{{merge to|Spike Ball|section=yes}}

In ''Super Mario World'', Floating Mines first appear in [[Yoshi's Island 4]] as spiked balls with a wooden texture that drift in the water. They follow the current continuously and pulsate with spikes. [[Yoshi]] can step on their spikes harmlessly and eat them, and a [[Super Star]] can defeat them. In the [[Sunken Ghost Ship]], many are in free fall, making it difficult for [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] to move around.

Mines, simply called '''bombs''' in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and also called '''spiked orbs''' in the [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]]<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Super Mario 64'' Player's Guide. Pages 43 and 125.</ref> and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', play a vital role in defeating [[Bowser]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and [[Super Mario 64 DS|its remake]]. In the final arenas of [[Bowser in the Dark World]], [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], and [[Bowser in the Sky]], where the bombs surround the arena, Mario, Luigi, or [[Wario]] has to throw Bowser into one of the bombs to defeat him (three in Bowser in the Sky). If the player jumps into one of the bombs, it will blow up and they will take two wedges of damage.

They come in two versions. The underwater version moves on a vertical chain and regenerate themselves after detonation. The space version, also known as '''Space Mines''',<ref name=GalaxyPortal/> appears as featureless spiked balls. They are usually immobile but sometimes move vertically or horizontally. They can be defeated if they are shot with a [[Star Bit]].

Both types also appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', where they look and act the same as in the predecessor. In this game, Yoshi cannot eat them. Some may release [[coin]]s, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, or Star Bits.

 

Mines also appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] port ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'' in the form of a green spiked ball with yellow spikes. They first appear in [[Clear Pipe Cruise]]. They are in the interior of [[Clear Pipe]]s, blocking parts of them. Some [[Green Stars]] are among mines; if the player hits a mine, they not only take damage, but are also ejected backwards in the pipe, so its destruction is necessary to pass. They can be destroyed by a [[fireball]] from [[Fire Mario]], a [[Baseball (object)|baseball]], [[Invincible Mario]] or [[White Tanooki Mario]].

In ''[[Mario's Time Machine]]'', mines appear as obstacles while Mario is surfing around. In the SNES version, hitting one causes Mario to lose all of his [[mushroom]]s, whereas in the PC version, hitting one only causes Mario to lose one of them.

In ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'', small mines appear as somewhat common obstacles. They can be found on the ground, where they can be picked up, or floating in underwater, where they can interrupt a [[Dash Attack|Body Slam]]. If interacted with, they proceed to flash and then soon explode, causing damage. The [[Pecan]] enemy can also spit mines that sink and automatically explode.

====''Mario Party 3''====

In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', mines (referred to as bombs) appear in the minigame [[Cheep Cheep Chase]], where they are in the way of the players, who are being pursued by a large [[Cheep Cheep]]. To get around them, the players must dive.

====''Mario Party 6''====

Mines also appear as a projectile in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', in [[Sink or Swim]]. While three other characters are swimming in a body of water, one player tries to drop mines on their heads. If the mines hit someone, they do not explode. They simply knock them unconscious.

====''Mario Party Superstars''====

Mines reappear in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', reprising their roles in the Cheep Cheep Chase minigame.

 

Mines reappear in ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' and its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|ports]] using the same appearance as from ''Super Mario 3D World'' and acting in the same way. They are usually seen in levels with clear pipes and block the way of the player, such as [[Clear Pipe Puzzleplex]]. They can be destroyed by using the [[Super Pickax]] power-up.

Mines appear in the [[Boilerworks]] and the [[ScreamPark]] minigame Coin Floating in ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]''. There is a normal type resembling a [[Spike Ball]], and a homing type that acts as a [[bomb]]. The later moves toward the nearest player, and when close, it flashes red and eventually blows up. Their explosion can pop Luigi's inflatable duck boat and make him drown, losing 20 [[Heart Point|HP]].
