Mario Can-Can is a 2-vs.-2 minigame found in Mario Party 5. Its name comes from "can-can," a type of dance.
Gameplay[edit]
Each team is in charge of opening a can, done so by jumping on or ground-pounding platforms attached to a can opener. As the players continue to jump or ground-pound, the can opener slowly goes around the top of the can, opening it. Players must take turns jumping or ground-pounding in order to get the most leverage from each jump or Ground Pound. The first team to open its can and release the contents wins. If neither team does so within a certain time limit, the minigame ends in a draw.

- Candies – Various sweets erupt from the can.
