Big Bertha is what Boss Bass is called underwater. Also, Boss Bass, and, by extension, Big Bertha, both CAN, in fact, be killed by Tanooki Mario in its Statue form, but, like the Thwomp and Lava Lotus, it has a unique hit box that has to be hit just right. You could probably do it easier via by using the Game Genie, Pro Action Replay, or Gameshark devices on a particular system, as well as enabling a permanent Tanooki Mario code.

[@Renville80]

This was a great video! I remember playing my NES, beating the game, and playing it on the "Hard Mode" with all of my collected Items.

Alternate ducking abilities, the cool ways to kill many enemies that only Invincibility Stars could, and the badass aesthetics of the suits make them absolute necessities.

[@BlueTelevisionGames]

Sweet

[@FnrrfYgmSchnish]

Jelectros and Munchers are treated like blocks by the game rather than enemies/items, which is probably why it doesn't work on them. Super weird that it just passes through Ptooies like that, though. I wouldn't have expected that, considering it hits regular Piranha Plants and even Lava Lotuses.

[@BlueTelevisionGames]

That one surprised me too

[@ethervagabond]

Wow, there's a lot of stuff I didn't know you could Tanooki stomp. I'm pretty surprised. Thwomps, Podobos, the disco ball lookin things, the lava flower spitting things, the rocket engine things.

[@bitwize]

All of the Tanookable enemies have one major thing in common: they are all objects with sprites associated with them. You can't Tanook Jelectros or Munchers because these are part of the background layer and actually a special form of block. In fact if you somehow hit a Muncher from the side with your tail (not possible in the retail game without cheats but possible in some ROM hacks), it will turn into a dead block (like a spent ? block). Blooper Nanny, Fire Chomp, and Fire Snake are a different class of enemy: one with a "head" and a "tail" of smaller sprites. Only the head can be Tanook'd (or suffer any other kind of attack), even if some of the "tail" pieces can split off and do their own thing. Fun fact about Fire Chomp: if it runs out of flames from its tail, it will still chase Mario and eventually explode like a Bob-omb. Nerve-wracking stuff.
