* A very literal case in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'' — one of the new items introduced in the game is the Banana Gun. It's literally just a banana that the character holds like a gun. The flesh of the banana is fired as a slow-moving but powerful explosive projectile and the leftover peel can be used [[BananaPeel exactly how you'd expect]].
