In the remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', the Whomps' appearance is slightly altered, with their rocky texture being a bit smoother, their bodies being rougher and rounder along the edges, and their hands being gray and rectangular instead of purple and spherical. Additionally, it is no longer possible to jump through them as they fall. Finally, besides a Ground Pound, it is now possible to defeat them with a [[Super Mushroom]].

In ''[[Mario Party]]'', 3 Whomps appear in [[DK's Jungle Adventure]]. They are guarding the junctions, and players who wish to take the path that a Whomp is blocking must first pay it 10 [[Coin]]s. Players that choose to take the path that the Whomp is not guarding causes the Whomp to start blocking that pathway instead.

Whomps re-appear in ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', but their roles are quite minor. They appear in Hole 16 and 17 of [[Bowser Badlands]] squishing the player's golf ball, giving the player a penalty stroke. This is the same effect as [[Thwomp]], but Whomps disappear after falling.
