In Super Bomberman - Panic Bomber W, Buroru is not a very strong opponent.[4] It moves its pieces into position and waits until they are two blocks from the top of the field before quickly moving them down into position. It is renamed "Vurolu" in this game.
In the Virtual Boy version, Buroru was renamed to "Toran the Ghost" in the U.S. version. It is described as a tenacious opponent.[5]
