(According to the blog, this thing is the "Flying Battleship under a Wonder Effect" itself, not some sort of separate cannon. I guess this may explain why it looks like the figurehead of the Battleship - because its the same thing.)

The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an acceptable name is found, then the article should be moved to the new title.

This article is about the obstacle found in one of Super Mario Bros. Wonder's reccuring Wonder Effects. For the generic obstacle called Cannon, see Cannon. For other uses of the term "cannon", see Cannon (disambiguation).

The Bowser cannon is an obstacle that appears during the Wonder Effect of the three flying battleship levels in Super Mario Bros. Wonder: Fluff-Puff Peaks Flying Battleship, Petal Isles Flying Battleship, and Deep Magma Bog Flying Battleship. It resembles both Castle Bowser and the airship's mast. It spawns in with an evil laugh once the player collects the Wonder Flower, and begins to fly in a bobbing motion in the background while shooting at the player. Similarly to Kroc, its shots are represented with a crosshair that follows the player, stopping only to flash briefly and explode. Said explosion has the ability to not only harm enemies and players, but destroy objects such as Crates, Hard Blocks, Iron Blocks, and Bill Blasters along with activating Marimba Blocks. Once the Wonder Seed is collecting (usually by means of using the shots to the player's advantage), the Bowser cannon disappears with an angered growl in a puff of smoke. All three of its appearances use the same music, that being "Doomy-Gloom Wonder."

The cannon is identical to the figureheads of the battleships themselves. The only difference is that the cannon's eyes glow pink instead of green.
