The Kaboomba[1] is a walking cannon enemy that first appears in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
History
Yoshi's Island series
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
Kaboombas only appear in The Cave Of The Mystery Maze and Raphael The Raven's Castle. They attack by shooting heavy cannonballs that fall to the ground and explode after a few seconds. Yoshi can safely stand on them, and eating them does nothing. An egg or Ground Pound disposes of them.
Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3
Kaboombas retain their role in the Game Boy Advance port, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3.
Yoshi's New Island
Kaboombas make a return appearance in Yoshi's New Island.
Super Princess Peach
- See also: Cannon (disambiguation)
Kaboombas also appear in Super Princess Peach, where they are named Cannons. The Calm Cannon, a sleeping variety, also appeared.
Other appearances
Kaboombas and an unused big variant were originally designed during the development of Super Mario World,[2] where they would have shot Green Shells.[3] They would have had white shoes, which also appear in early assets of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.[4]
Profiles and statistics
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
- Official Nintendo Player's Guide: He strolls slowly, but unleashes a painful payload. It's pretty easy to avoid this cantering cannon.[1]

Trivia
- The Player's Guide description for the Kaboomba is erroneously accompanied by an image of one of the cannonballs instead of the enemy itself.
- Despite the Kaboomba's name being similar to the Goomba, they have nothing in relation to them.
