A '''Ball 'n' Chain''' is a [[Spiked Ball|spiked ball]] on a chain swinging on a pivot. ''[[Super Mario World]]'' introduces these obstacles. [[Bowser]] uses these as cautionary weapons against invaders, but [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] can stand on the brick in the center to avoid being hit by the ball. Also, using a [[Spin Jump]] will allow Mario/Luigi to harmlessly bounce off the spiked ball. Many are found in the [[castle]]s and [[fortress]]es in ''Super Mario World''. | A '''Ball 'n' Chain''' is a [[Spiked Ball|spiked ball]] on a chain swinging on a pivot.

''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' features this obstacle in the [[World 7 (New Super Mario Bros.)#World 7-Castle|World 7-Castle]] and [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros.)#World 8-Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Castle]]. The blocks are still there, and one even has a [[Star Coin]]. As an added feature, they rotate wildly on the end of the chain as well as spinning on the block, however, this does not affect their attack. | ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' features this obstacle in the [[World 7 (New Super Mario Bros.)#World 7-Castle|World 7-Castle]] and [[World 8 (New Super Mario Bros.)#World 8-Bowser's Castle|Bowser's Castle]].

Ball 'n' Chains reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' once, in a secret area of [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)#World 4-Castle|Wendy's Castle]] and in [[World 3 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)#World 3-Fortress|Lemmy's Fortress]]. However, unlike their past appearances, they can be defeated, using a [[Starman]]. | Ball 'n' Chains reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', regular and giant Ball 'n' Chains (under the name '''Pendulums''') appear, swinging in a pendulum-like manner as they do in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' and ''Super Mario 3D Land''. Unlike other iterations, however, these Ball 'n' Chains cannot be avoided by passing through the chains, as they have been spiked too. | In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.
