A '''Trackball''' is a fixed item in [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]] of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Trackballs first appear in [[The Jungle]] as pink spheres attached to silver pathways. [[Attack]]ing the circle causes it to speed along the path, [[damage|damaging]] and often [[KO]]'ing any enemies it hits. The strength of the attack used to hit it affects how fast and how far the Trackball moves, as well as how much damage it does. If a Trackball's track is "open" (that is, it has a start and an end), the Trackball will return to its starting point once it reaches the end or runs out of momentum (doing no damage on the way back). On the other hand, if the path is a closed circuit, the Trackball will remain where it stops once it loses all momentum. Trackballs cannot be hit while in motion. | A '''Trackball''' is a fixed item in [[Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary]] of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.

Trackballs generally appear in two cases: to help in areas with many enemies or to unblock paths with certain blocks that only Trackballs can break (known as Trackblocks). Trackblocks will be destroyed no matter how fast a Trackball is moving ( | Trackballs generally appear in two cases: to help in areas with many enemies or to unblock paths with certain blocks that only Trackballs can break (known as Trackblocks).

While Trackballs are generally activated by attacks, there are areas (for example in [[The Great Maze]]) that feature "chains" of Trackballs. When hit, the first Trackball will smash into the other Trackballs, which causes them to move at their greatest possible speed (regardless of how fast the original was moving). | While Trackballs are generally activated by attacks, there are areas (for example in [[The Great Maze]]) that feature "chains" of Trackballs.
