The Whirling Robo is an enemy in EarthBound, being a tougher version of the Spinning Robo; it is also similar to the Hyper Spinning Robo. Oddly, the Earthbound Players' Guide suggests that the Whirling Robo has a self destruct sequence like the Atomic Power Robot or Nuclear Reactor Robot.

EarthBound Player's Guide description

"This dizzy mechanized fiend falls apart under most PSI attacks. Watch out for this robot's automated self-destruct sequence."
