Superball Flowers are very similar to [[Fire Flower]]s.

However, in ''Super Mario Land'', Superball Flowers do not change [[Mario]]'s appearance at all. In ''Super Mario Maker 2'', they make Mario black and white, similar to ''Super Mario Land'', which was in black and white.<ref name=Reddit/>

Game information

Superball Flowers are very similar to Fire Flowers. Not only do they look very much alike, but they also give the player similar abilities - superballs are the game's equivalent to fireballs, although they behave slightly differently (ricocheting off all surfaces at 90° to arrival rather than remaining low, only one can be fired at a time) and they can collect coins when fired at them. However, in Super Mario Land, Superball Flowers do not change Mario's appearance at all. In Super Mario Maker 2, they make Mario black and white, similar to Super Mario Land, which was in black and white.[4]
