Origin

Boomerang in Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3.

Boomerangs first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3 as the Boomerang Bro.'s weapon of choice. A Boomerang item was included in the game's remake for the Game Boy Advance, Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3. This boomerang could be caught and reused, much like the one in SSB4. However, it could only be accessed through a special e-Reader card released only in Japan. The Boomerang Flower is a power-up item first appearing in Super Mario 3D Land, where it transforms Mario into Boomerang Mario, who is able to throw boomerangs to attack enemies, similar to the Boomerang Bros. enemies. The boomerang would also collect any item it touches, allowing Mario to pick up far-off coins and other collectables. It also appears in Super Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8.
