| {{Rewrite-expand|Incorporate information on the Water Balls fired by [[Water Shooter]]s in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''.}}
| | '''Giant Bubbles''' are large masses of water that float (and sometimes move) in the air. They are only found in [[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]], and within the game, are only found in World 7-2. If the player [Jump|jumps] into one, he will start behaving as if he was underwater. This means that the player can swim in the water until the water ends, at which point the player will jump out. Giant Bubbles usually are used to access high areas or to cross large gaps, but they can also be used to avoid enemies down below, thus providing a safer route for the player to travel through. [[Bullet Bills]] will travel slower while in the water. |

| Water Balls in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' appear in [[World 7-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-2]] only, and they can be [[Swim|swum]] in by the player character until they exit it, at which point the player falls out. Water Balls are usually used to access high areas or to cross large gaps, but they can also be used to avoid enemies down below. Water Balls hinder the movement speed of [[Bullet Bill]]s.

| Water Balls in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|its port]] appear only in [[A Quick Dip in the Sky]]. They behave the same as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.

| ===''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''===
| |
| Water Balls in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' appear during [[Wonder Bowser Jr.]]'s boss battle in [[Sunbaked Desert Palace]], and during the [[Wonder Effect]] of [[Hot-Hot Hot!]] Water Balls behave the same as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. In Sunbaked Desert Palace, Water Balls are produced by [[Wonder Bowser Jr.]] after taking damage. In Hot-Hot Hot!, an infinite number of Water Balls floats down and extinguishes [[Hot-Hot Rock]]s during the [[Wonder Effect]].
