Banzai Bill Cannon
Banzai Bill Blasters (also known as Banzai Launchers) are titanic Bill Blasters in New Super Mario Bros. Like Bill Blasters, they slowly shoot Banzai Bills. It is unknown if they are the Blasters that shoot Banzai Bills in Super Mario World, but they most likely are. These Bill Blasters only appear in a few levels of the New Super Mario Bros. and help the player reach the tops of the flagpoles.
They also make an appearance in Super Mario Galaxy on the final level, Bowser's Galaxy Reactor. They also appear in New Super Mario Bros. Wii and in Super Mario Galaxy 2.
In New Super Mario Bros. Wii, through hacking methods, it is possible to set the Banzai Bill Blaster to fire Missile Banzai Bills.
In Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Before Fawful took over Bowser's Castle, Private Goomp, Corporal Paraplonk, and Sergeant Guy were able to salvage a Banzai Bill Blaster, and escaped with it. Bowser later encountered the group carrying the blaster through the forest, and they told him that they were going to launch a Banzai Bill at the castle, though he then learned that they had no Banzai Bills.
After Bowser recovered one from Wiggler, they launched it at the castle, though before it could make contact, Midbus had the castle float into the air, efficiently dodging the Banzai Bill.
Trivia
- There is only one visible Banzai Bill Blaster in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. It appears in world 7-4.
