The Bomberman universe (ボンバーマン, Bomberman) is a series of maze-based action and puzzle games formally developed and published by Hudson Soft and currently developed and published by Konami. The first installment of the series, Bomberman, launched on various home computers in 1983, and was released on Nintendo Entertainment System in 1985. The series received more than 70 other titles released on various consoles, with its latest installment being Super Bomberman R in 2017.


In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!, the Virtual Boy version of Panic Bomber, Bomberman Hero (in PAL versions only), and Classic NES Series: Bomberman are mentioned among the titles listed in the Chronicle in Western versions of Brawl. However, no other content from the series is seen anywhere else in the game.

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

The Bomberman universe would receive a huge upgrade in terms of representation, with its eponymous character appearing as an assist trophy, a spirit, and as a purchasable Mii costume later in 2020.

Assist Trophy

Bomberman: The main protagonist of the games appears as an Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. When summoned in battle, Bomberman will run and jump across the stage, laying down bombs. After a few seconds, the bombs detonate in cross-shaped patterns reminiscent of the original Bomberman games, dealing damage and knockback to the enemies hit and possibly to himself. Enemies can move the bombs around by hitting them, and Bomberman can also be defeated.

Mii Costume

Bomberman appears as a Mii Costume for the Mii Brawler in Round 7 of the paid Mii Costume DLC. The Mii's color affects the color of the costume.

Outfit

Headgear

Spirit

Bomberman also appears as a spirit.
