The Fireballs in Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.

This article is about the item. For information about the enemy in the game Donkey Kong, see Fireball (Donkey Kong). For the move, see Fire (Move).

A fireball is an orb of fire that can be used as a weapon. Typically, one can only shoot fireballs if he or she acquires a Fire Flower. However, some enemies can shoot fireballs without the use of a power-up. Additionally, Mario can train himself to shoot fireballs from his hand (without using a Fire Flower).

Fireballs appear in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. In Lethal Lava Land, a Fireball may spurt out of the Lava and leap in a straight line. Bowser also use fireball's as a way of attacking.

In Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, fireballs are the special item of both Mario and Luigi. When the special item is used, five fireballs will be launched into the racetrack, hitting other drivers and causing their karts to spin-out. These fireballs are capable of ricocheting off walls. However, after a short amount of time, the launched fireballs will fizzle out.

Also, in Mario Superstar Baseball, the Fireball is Mario and Luigi's special pitch. It, unlike most other pitches, goes in a straight line. The ball, as the name says, turns into an extremely hard to hit, fireball, red for Mario, and green for Luigi. And in Super Mario RPG, Fireball is a monster encountered in Booster's Tower in the Mine Room. Fireball looks like a Sparky or Pyrosphere, but blue in color.

In the Super Smash Bros. series, Mario shoots red fireballs while Luigi shoots green ones. Mario's Fireballs shoot in an angle changing with the angle of the battlefield. While Luigi's shoots straight no matter what.
