Floating Mines first appeared in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as spiked balls that drifted in the water during '''Yoshi's Island 4'''. It was semi-invincible, and would follow Mario much like a Puffer Fish.

'''Mines''' (either capitalized<ref>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Mario Mania'' Player's Guide. Pages 58 and 137.</ref> or lowercase<ref>"''Make sure you catch enough mushrooms to enter the time tunnel. And watch out for mines and sharks!''" &mdash; '''Hints''', ''Mario's Time Machine'', 1994</ref>) are [[Spike Ball]]-like [[bomb]]s that first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. Despite their name, they are not always shown to be explosive.


==History==
The Mines reappeared in ''[[Super Mario Land: 6 Golden Coins]]'' as a spiked ball spinning around a bubble in the final stage in [[Mario Zone]].
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario World''====
In ''Super Mario World'', Mines, also referred to as '''Floating Mines''',<ref>M. Arakawa. Nintendo ''Mario Mania'' Player's Guide. Page 52.</ref><ref>''Nintendo Power Advance'' V.4, page 71.</ref> first appear in [[Yoshi's Island 4]] as spiked balls with a wooden texture that drift in the water. They follow the current continuously and pulsate with spikes. [[Yoshi]] can step on their spikes harmlessly and eat them, and a [[Super Star]] can defeat them. In the [[Sunken Ghost Ship]], many are in free fall, making it difficult for [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] to move around, and slowly rise to the surface when landing in the water.


====''Super Mario 64'' / ''Super Mario 64 DS''====
[[Category: Enemies]]
Mines, simply called '''bombs''' in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and also called '''spiked orbs''' in the [[Nintendo Power|Player's Guide]]<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Super Mario 64'' Player's Guide. Pages 43 and 125.</ref> and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', play a vital role in defeating [[Bowser]]. In the final arenas of [[Bowser in the Dark World]], [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], and [[Bowser in the Sky]], where the bombs surround the arena, Mario, Luigi, or [[Wario]] has to throw Bowser into one of the bombs to defeat him (three in Bowser in the Sky). If the player jumps into one of the bombs, it will blow up and they will take two wedges of damage.

===''Mario's Time Machine''===
[[File:Mine MTMDX.png|frame|left]]
In ''[[Mario's Time Machine]]'', unexplosive mines appear as obstacles while Mario is surfing around. In the PC version, hitting a mine causes Mario to lose only one [[mushroom]], whereas in the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] version, hitting a mine causes Mario to lose all of them.

===''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3''===
[[File:WL Course07 start.png|thumb|A mine in ''Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3'']]
In ''[[Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3]]'', small mines appear as somewhat common obstacles. They can be found on the ground, where they can be picked up, or floating in underwater, where they can interrupt a [[Dash Attack|Body Slam]]. If interacted with, they proceed to flash and then soon explode, causing damage. The [[Pecan]] enemy can also spit mines that sink and automatically explode.
 
===''Mario Party'' series===
====''Mario Party 2''====
In ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', mines appear in the minigame [[Deep Sea Salvage]], where they are thrown in an arc among [[Coin]]s and [[coin bag]]s by a [[Hammer Bro]] on a ship. Like the other objects, they sink directly downward when they land in the water. They explode if they hit a player, stunning them for several seconds. Unlike the other objects, they also explode if they touch the ground on either side of the screen.
 
====''Mario Party 3''====
In ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', mines (referred to as bombs) appear in the minigame [[Cheep Cheep Chase]], where they are in the way of the players, who are being pursued by a giant [[Cheep Cheep]]. To get around them, the players must dive.
 
====''Mario Party Superstars''====
Mines reappear in ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', reprising their roles in the Cheep Cheep Chase minigame.
 
===''Donkey Kong Country 3'' (Game Boy Advance)===
In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 3]]'', floating mines appear in the "Disarm" mission of [[Funky's Rentals (minigame)|Funky's Rentals]]. The [[Kong]]s must take four mines from a [[Kremling]] one at a time, and have them safely detonate in a designated space.
 
===''DK: Jungle Climber''===
Mines appear in ''[[DK Jungle Climber]]'', having a similar role as floating [[Spike Trap|spike]]s from ''[[DK: King of Swing]]''. They are seen floating in the air, and explode upon contact.
 
===''Luigi's Mansion 3''===
Several types of mines appear in ''[[Luigi's Mansion 3]]''. In the [[Boilerworks]], mines remain still and flash red when approached, exploding after a seconds. In the [[ScreamPark]] minigame Coin Floating, two types of mines appear. There is a normal type resembling a [[Spike Ball]], and a homing type that acts as a [[bomb]]. The later moves toward the nearest player, and when close, it flashes red and eventually blows up. In the ScreamPark minigame Floaty Frenzy, mines are periodically dropped onto the field to block certain ways, and explode by themselves after some time passes or if touched by a player. They can pop Luigi's inflatable duck boat and make him drown, losing 20 [[Heart Point|HP]].
