'''Water Balls'''<ref> | '''Water Balls'''<ref>Stratton, Steve. ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 181.</ref> are objects in the [[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|''New Super Mario Bros.'' sub-series]]. They are large masses of [[water]] that float (and sometimes move) in the air, and they are shaped as either circles or ellipses (horizontal and vertical) and look similar to [[bubble]]s. | ||

Water Balls in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' | Water Balls first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', where they are found only in [[World 7-2 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-2]]. If the player [[jump]]s into one, they start behaving as if they were underwater. This allows the player to [[swim]] inside the Water Ball 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, thus providing a safer route for the player to travel through. [[Bullet Bill]]s also travel slower when they go through a Water Ball. | ||

Water Balls in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' | Water Balls return in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'', where they are found in [[Sunbaked Desert Palace]] and [[Hot-Hot Hot!]]. They behave the same as in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''. In Sunbaked Desert Palace, Water Balls are produced by [[Wonder Bowser Jr.]]. In Hot-Hot Hot!, an infinite amount of Water Balls float down and extinguish [[Hot-Hot Rock]]s during the [[Wonder Effect]]. | ||
