In {{ALttP}}, Cannons are dangerous traps that appear in some locations. They are connected to the walls of certain rooms; the room containing the [[Big Key]] in the {{Term|ALttP|Desert Palace|link}}, and a room in the third floor of [[Ganon's Tower (A Link to the Past)|Ganon's Tower]] known as the Corridor of Cannons.<ref name="ALttP Guide 139"/> They move along the wall in a predictable back-and-forth motion, firing cannonballs at regular intervals. They are placed on either side of the room, so the cannonballs will assault Link from both directions, making it hard to pass. Link has to time his movements carefully to get beyond these traps, as they cannot be destroyed.

[[File:FSA Air Cannon Sprite.png|right|80px]]
Small, floating Cannons known as [[Air Cannon]]s can be found in some stages in {{FSA}}. They are used to blast all of the four [[Links]] to higher areas, but are also present to return to the top once the Links fall through a hole in the ground. Often, there are Large [[Force Gem]]s for the Links to collect in these areas.

Cannons are also found in {{TP}}. In [[Snowpeak Ruins]], there are Cannons spread throughout the dungeon. In order to use them, a cannonball must be found and brought to the Cannon. To fire, Link must put the cannonball into the Cannon, then place a [[Bomb]] into the Cannon for ignition. This will send the cannonball flying and destroying any ice object in its path, including [[Freezard]]s.

The {{Term|TPHD|Cannon Manual|link}} in the {{Term|TPHD|Snowpeak Ruins}} explains how {{Plural|TPHD|Cannon}} are used.


Two Cannons can be found in the overworld which are used to transport Link between places. The first of these is [[Fyer]]'s cannon, used to launch Link to [[Gerudo Desert]], and the [[Sky Cannon]], used to shoot him up the [[City in the Sky]].

A Cannon also appears in {{PH}}, but unlike in {{TWW|-}}, it is not obtained along with the Bombs. Instead, Link buys his first Cannon from [[Eddo's Garage]] for 50 [[Rupee]]s. The other Cannons are obtained through the [[Ship Parts]] side quest. These Cannons do not use up Link's stock of Bombs. As such, they have infinite ammunition. In order to use the Cannon, the desired enemy must be tapped to shoot a cannonball at with the stylus. The Cannon can also be used to get the attention of [[Golden Frog]]s by hitting them with a cannonball.
In {{PH}}, {{Plural|PH|Cannon}} are weapons which can be attached to the {{Term|PH|SS Linebeck|link}}. {{Term|PH|Link}} buys his first {{Term|PH|Cannon}} from {{Term|PH|Eddo's Garage|link}} for 50 {{Plural|PH|Rupee|link}}, when he finds that the route to [[Northwestern Sea]] is blocked by {{Plural|PH|Boulder|link}}. The {{Term|PH|Cannon}} has infinite ammunition and is fired by tapping the desired target with the stylus. A variety of {{Plural|PH|Cannon}} with different appearances can be obtained in the same manner as other {{Plural|PH|Ship Part|link}}; most commonly from {{Plural|PH|Shop|link}}, {{Plural|PH|Treasure Chest|link}} and {{Plural|PH|Mini-Game|link}}. The {{Term|PH|Cannon}} can also be used to get the attention of {{Plural|PH|Golden Frog|link}} by hitting them with a cannonball.

[[File:Practical Cannon.png‎|right|65px]]
A {{Term|ST|Cannon}} appears in {{ST}} as part of the {{Term|ST|Spirit Train|link}}. This {{Term|ST|Cannon}} has infinite ammunition and is fired by tapping the desired target with the stylus. The first {{Term|ST|Cannon}} that {{Term|ST|Link}} acquires is the {{Term|ST|Practical Cannon|link}}, given to him by {{Term|ST|Alfonzo|link}} after the pair are attacked by {{Plural|ST|Bulblin|link}} en route to the {{Term|ST|Snow Realm|link}}. There are several other varieties of {{Plural|ST|Cannon}} that {{Term|ST|Link}} can acquire throughout his adventure, by trading {{Plural|ST|Treasure|link}} with {{Term|ST|Linebeck III|link}} at the {{Term|ST|Trading Post|link}}.
A Cannon appears in {{ST}} on the [[Spirit Train]]. The practical cannon is given to him by [[Alfonzo]]. There are different varieties of cannons Link can acquire throughout the game as well, by trading [[Treasure]]s with [[Linebeck III]] at the {{Term|ST|Trading Post|link}}. Link can go to [[Alfonzo]]'s house in [[Aboda Village]] to attach and switch [[Train Cars]]. The [[Spirit Train]] has a stamina of four Hearts, while two cars from the same set besides the Spirit Train's will earn five Hearts, and a complete set is worth six. The Golden Train has eight Hearts.

In {{BotW}}, Cannons can be found and used around the [[Eldin (Region)|Eldin Region]] around [[Goron City]] and [[Death Mountain]]. Each Cannon has a lever that causes it to rotate, allowing Link to aim it at different targets. They can be fired by placing a round [[Remote Bomb]] into it and detonating the Bomb. The young Goron [[Yunobo]] offers to act as a Cannon ball to chase the {{Term|BotW|Divine Beast Vah Rudania|link}} into Death Mountain.{{Fact}} With [[Daruk's Protection]], he is able to do so without being hurt.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In {{ALttP}}, the amount of cannonballs fired by Cannons depends on how many other enemies are active nearby; even in adjacent rooms. For example, if the enemies to in the rooms to the west of the Cannons in the Desert Palace are still alive, the cannonballs will only fire a total of four cannonballs at a time. Despite this, they will still go through the action of firing even when they do not launch a cannonball.
