'''Porcupuffer'''<ref>{{cite|language=en-us|publisher=Nintendo of America|title=''[[Nintendo Power]]'' issue 185|page=117|date=November 2004}}</ref> is a [[List of bosses|boss]] in ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]''. It is found inside a shipwreck in the [[Frosty Frontier Stage]]. It mainly swims around the ship, but after enough time has passed, it extends the spikes on its body and homes in on [[Mario]] directly to knock him around the room. When hit by [[Bob-omb|cannonball bomb]]s or [[Invincible Mario]], Porcupuffer inflates, leaving it temporarily vulnerable to Mario's pinball form or a cannonball bomb. Every time Porcupuffer takes a hit, it summons two [[Spiny Cheep Cheep|little puffer]]s to help it attack (or a single new one if one has already been defeated), and the player earns 10,000 [[point]]s. The little puffers can be defeated by flicking a single cannonball bomb at them with the [[flipper (Pinball)|flipper]]s. Hitting Porcupuffer three times defeats it and grants 500,000 points. Once defeated, Porcupuffer leaves behind four [[coin|Yellow Coins]], four [[Blue Coin]]s, and a [[Star Key]].

'''Porcupuffer'''<ref>[[Nintendo Power]] issue 185 (November 2004), p. 117</ref> is one of the bosses in ''[[Mario Pinball Land]]''. It is found inside a [[shipwreck]] in the [[Frosty Frontier Stage]] and in the boss rematch room in the [[Fiery Stage]]. When hit by [[Bob-omb|cannonball bomb]]s, it inflates, leaving it vulnerable to [[Mario]]'s pinball form. It mainly swims around the ship, but after enough time has passed, it extends the spikes on its body and homes in on Mario directly to knock him around the room. Every time it takes a hit, it summons two [[Spiny Cheep Cheep|little puffer]]s to help it attack (or a single new one if one has already been defeated). These foes can be destroyed by flicking a single cannonball bomb at them with the pinball flippers.
Porcupuffer reappears and is fought again after all the [[Cheep Cheep]]s are defeated in its rematch room in the [[Fiery Stage]]. At the start of this fight, two little puffers appear with Porcupuffer. After Porcupuffer is defeated again, the player earns 1,000,000 points and can obtain a [[Power Star|Star]].
