Pair a Needle with a Bomb to make Kirby explode with spiky shrapnel. Use the Control Pad to position the floating explosive.”
— Description • Nintendo Power (Volume #134)
Needle Bomb (also called Spike Bomb[1] or Exploding Gordo[2]) is a Power Combo used in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, made by mixing the Needle and Bomb abilities. Taking the form of a Gordo, Kirby gains temporary hovering and invincibility for a short time. As he moves, his spikes "wobble." After the duration ends, upon coming into contact with enemies, or if is pressed again, Kirby explodes, sending spikes in every direction. This attack method is similar to Captain Stitch's attack, which involves him launching his spikes at Kirby in a bunch.
Kirby turns into what looks like a Gordo. While in this state, Kirby can float in any direction, but not walk or jump. He is also invincible. After a short amount of time or when is pressed again, Kirby explodes and launches his spikes away.
