See [[#Merge to iron ball?|the discussion above]], which followed [[Talk:Iron ball#Rename to "iron ball"|the "Big Steely" to "iron ball" proposal]]. With this article being renamed from "pinball (obstacle)" to "metal ball" following ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' calling it as such, "Big Steely" being renamed to "iron ball" because the former name was just a one-time nickname for the latter and had fallen out of use since, and especially now that ''Tour's'' version of {{classic-link|GBA|Bowser's Castle 4}} also uses giant versions of metal balls that are referred to as metal balls as well, ''and'' the fact that both metal balls and iron balls share the same Japanese name of ''tekkyū'' (lit. "iron ball"), I don't think there's much of a point anymore to keep the two articles separate. The rename to "metal ball" in ''Tour'' and the use of the metal balls in {{classic|GBA|Bowser's Castle 4}} already proves that these obstacles are no longer specific to pinball-related locations and such. | See [[#Merge to iron ball?|the discussion above]], which followed [[Talk:Iron ball#Rename to "iron ball"|the "Big Steely" to "iron ball" proposal]].
