Bob-omb Squad is one ofWario'sminigames inSuper Mario 64 DS and a Variety minigame inNew Super Mario Bros. The gameplay is similar to that ofLakitu Launch.

Gameplay[edit]

In this minigame, the player must hit the fallingPara-bombs with a black ball attached to a slingshot before they destroy the player's garden ofPower Flowers. The player has to aim the slingshot with thestylus, and releasing it fires the ball. The player scores 100points for each Para-bomb they hit, but if they hit multiple Para-bombs in one shot, the points will be multiplied up to 3,200. Occasionally,Lakitu appears. If the player hits Lakitu, all Para-bombs onscreen will blow up, but the player will receive only 100 points per Para-bomb (for example, if ten Para-bombs are onscreen, the player will receive 1,000 bonus points). As the player's score goes up, the descent speed of the Para-bombs increases. The minigame is over when all four of the Power Flowers at the bottom of the screen are destroyed by Para-bombs.
