Although fireballs appeared in ''Mario Bros.'', the act of shooting fireballs originated in the 1985 game, ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', where the ability was obtained after collecting a [[Fire Flower]]. The power is lost when the player dies or takes damage. In the game, fireballs were small, traveled very quickly, and did not stop until hitting something. Also in this game, and other traditional [[Mario (universe)|''Mario'' games]], Luigi's fireballs are not unique, being red in color and behaving exactly like Mario's. In most games, only two fireballs could be on-screen at a time even if one could be rapid-fired after another. Luigi's green fireballs made their debut in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], but reappears later in the ''Mario'' spin-offs such as ''{{s|supermariowiki|Mario Kart: Double Dash!!}}'', ''{{s|supermariowiki|Mario Superstar Baseball}}'', ''{{s|supermariowiki|Mario Hoops 3-on-3}}'', and ''{{s|supermariowiki|Mario Super Sluggers}}''. | Although fireballs appeared in ''Mario Bros.'', the act of shooting fireballs originated in the 1985 game, ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', where the ability was obtained after collecting a [[Fire Flower]].

A Fire Flower would also change the character's clothing colors, depending on the game. Usually, Mario's overalls became red, while Luigi's turned green, both with white shirts and caps. These color schemes are available as [[Costume|alternate costumes]] for Mario and Luigi in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. | A Fire Flower would also change the character's clothing colors, depending on the game.

In a similar way to ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars}}'', Mario can use fire without a Fire Flower in ''Smash Bros.'', as Mario became associated with the element of fire. | In a similar way to ''{{s|supermariowiki|Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars}}'', Mario can use fire without a Fire Flower in ''Smash Bros.'', as Mario became associated with the element of fire. | ||
