+Fireballs make their first appearance in the original ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' as enemies. In levels [[25m|25 m]] and [[50m|50 m]], Fireballs emerge from the [[oil drum]]s and then chase after [[Mario]], although they have short attention spans. In the former level, they only emerge when the oil drum is hit by a blue [[barrel]]. If Mario is touched by a Fireball, he loses a [[extra life|life]] and is forced to restart the level. Fireballs can climb [[ladder]]s, no matter if they are broken or fixed, but cannot reverse directions during the climb. They cannot fall from ledges or cross gaps. Eventually, they migrate to the top of the level. If Mario jumps over a Fireball, he receives [[point]]s, but the only way to destroy them is with a [[hammer]]. Picking up a hammer causes the Fireballs to turn blue. In 25m and 50m, there can be a maximum of five Fireballs simultaneously onscreen. In [[75m|75 m]], two Fireballs patrol a set of platforms.

 Fireballs appear in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'', where they are often seen monitoring a set area. However, they are considerably scarce during the course of the game. They will instantly burn Mario on contact, thus causing him to lose a life. Much to the plumber's advantage, they can be crushed with [[hammer]]s usually found nearby.
+The [[Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nintendo Switch)|remake]] depicts them with an updated design that gives them a closer connection to the [[Lava Bubble]]s that also return. The remake also introduces a blue, icy variant, found exclusively in the new ice-themed [[Slippery Summit]] and [[Slippery Summit Plus]] worlds. They have an identical purpose and function to Fireballs, but instead of burning, they freeze [[Mario]] and [[Mini Mario (toy)|Mini-Mario]] on contact, which causes them to lose a life.
