Chainless Chain Chomps appear in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', where they roll around like boulders but without the boulders' weak spot. They can roll in circles, around planets, or even in paths off the sides of planets (in which case they typically are infinitely spawned from a cannon). If Mario or Luigi steps in front of a Chain Chomp, he is knocked away and loses HP. In the single-player mode, Chain Chomps can be defeated only with the use of a [[Rainbow Star]], a [[rubbery bulb]], or a [[Bob-omb]]. In the Cooperation mode, one player can hold one Chain Chomp's back still while the other player [[spin]]s it in the front, or one player makes one Chain Chomp stunned while another collides with it. In any case, defeating one makes it explode into many [[Star Bit]]s. A small new variety of Chain Chomp, known as [[Mini Wanwan]], comes out of doghouses and are found only in the [[Dreadnought Galaxy]]. Medium-sized Chain Chomps also appear on the [[Good Egg Galaxy#Chomp Saucer planet|Chomp Saucer planet]] in the [[Good Egg Galaxy]], though are not officially distinguished. A [[Gold Chomp]] also appears in the [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]]; defeating it with a nearby Rainbow Star gives Mario a [[Power Star]].

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', Chain Chomps reappear, first in the [[Flip-Swap Galaxy]] as the common obstacle there. They later reappear in the [[Chompworks Galaxy]], where they make their most prominent appearance, the galaxy being focused on them. Chain Chomps behave the same way as they did in ''Super Mario Galaxy''. In one part of the [[Flipsville Galaxy]], two paths of Chain Chomps intersect so they automatically collide, making a large number of Star Bits. Gold Chomps and Mini Wanwan reappear, while a homing version called the [[Silver Chomp]] is introduced as well.
