The Handstand is a special move that Mario uses in Donkey Kong for the Game Boy and Mario vs. Donkey Kong. He can do so by jumping while crouching. Mario can use this move to perform a Handstand Jump and, when timed upon landing, a Handstand Double Jump to easily get to high places (by jumping upon landing). Mario can also do a Handstand Walk to travel slowly on his hands. Both the Handstand and Handstand Walk have the effect of harmlessly deflecting certain overhead hazards, such as Nitpicker eggs, Brickman bricks, and barbells. In the Nintendo Switch remake of Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Toad can also perform this move, which allows him to pass through gaps only the Mini-Marios can fit in otherwise.

Lanky Kong can use two handstand moves in Donkey Kong 64, OrangStand and OrangStand Sprint, the latter making him move at a high speed.
