Too minor, much? Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Unless someone can name an appearance of a hot air balloon where it plays a role in actual gameplay, I agree.--vellidragon 10:36, 13 January 2010 (EST)

I do remember a two-vs-two mini-game in the Mario Party series where player had to pump their own Hot Air Balloons, however, I can't seem to recall the name or game. Even so, it doesn't seem notable enough for a separate article.--Knife (talk) 16:58, 13 January 2010 (EST)

Hot Air Balloons play a major role in Donkey Kong Country 2's Red-Hot Ride level. You have to ride on them most of the level to avoid pits. I think this article should be kept, but it certainly must be improved. No links, no categories, and everything is jammed up into one paragraph... terrible. Fawfulfury65
True. All right, this gets to stay. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
I believe that's the only major role they have, though. I think this whole article should be redone and only talk about the Hot Air Balloons from DKC2, since that is their only big appearance. Fawfulfury65
Nah. It doesn't hurt to add in other appearances. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

This article is very poorly written; I'll work on it. – RalphSprite.pngRalphfan>>Organized ChaosRalphSprite.png

What about NSMBW[edit]

The hot air ballon appears in the end of said game, and even in the gallery for it. Should be added to the HAB article in my opinion. Blushock (talk) 04:22, September 13, 2022 (EDT)

This is a minor background element with no use whatsoever, so I don't think any generic hot-air balloon appearance should be mentioned. This is kinda like the Fireworks page's case before it was changed per proposal. Wario (Cowboy) from Mario Kart TourWildWario (talk) 06:00, September 13, 2022 (EDT)
