It consists of three distinct pieces; a large rotating turret which fires volleys similar to a [[Shotzo]]'s, a lower turret which shoots a powerful laser, and a robotic arm which can grab intruders and drop bombs on them. In ''Kirby Super Star'' and ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', a second robotic arm operates a crank that rotates the top turret. In most of its appearances in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], this cannon is fought as a [[boss]] or [[Mid-Boss]], but it has seen other uses as well. | ||

Kirby can attack and disable the lower cannon, but the Combo Cannon can only be defeated by striking its main rotating turret. Doing this can be tricky - especially with no [[Copy Ability]] - but the robotic arm which occasionally tries to grab Kirby may also drop bombs, which can be swallowed for the [[Bomb]] ability, and the cannonballs can be swallowed for the [[Yo-Yo]] ability in the SNES original and the Bomb ability in the DS remake. | ||
