Fireballs are projectiles launched by Mario and Luigi by using their neutral B attacks. Both upon connection cause minor damage and flinching common with other fire-based attacks. Kirby can also use the Fireball move by performing his Inhale move on either Mario or Luigi.
Fireballs are good for interrupting attacks such as smashes and tiltswith start-up lag as well as other special moves.
Mario's Fireballs
Mario's Fireballs shoot in an angle changing with the angle as it makes contact with the battlefield. Mario's fireballs can be spammed, but not easily, and they make a decent approach tactic. In Super Smash Bros., Mario's fireballs were large and able to make contact with an opponent easily, in Melee, however, they were much smaller, and if not the same, has worse range. In Brawl, Mario's fireballs are average sized.
Luigi's Fireballs
Luigi's fireballs differ from Mario's in many ways, the most notable being the fact that they aren't at all affected by gravity (much like how Luigi is so Floaty), which means that they travel in a complete horizontal trajectory. They are short ranged and spammable, and can be used at a slightly faster pace than Mario's, especially in the Negative Zone (Luigi's final smash).
Origin
The Fireballs originate from the 1985 NES game, Super Mario Bros., where the ability was obtained by grabbing a Fire Flower. This would also change Mario's outfit to red and white, as it would to Luigi, except green and white. In the Mario Bros. game, red and green fireballs would occasionally appear to try and singe Mario or Luigi. The red fireballs moved in the exact same pattern as Mario's fireballs, and the green moved in the exact same pattern as Luigi's, although only the green ones appear in the actual Mario Bros. stage.
