Swinging with Sharks is an Item minigame in Mario Party 3 and Mario Party Superstars. It is unnamed in the latter.
Overview[edit]
The player is on a swing, which they jump off of, trying to land on a barrel with the desired item. Baby Bowser is on a Sushi throughout, but he is replaced in Mario Party Superstars by Bowser Jr. on a barrel. If the player misses or jumps into the water automatically after time runs out, they get no item, and, in Mario Party 3, their character lets out a sped-up and higher-pitched version of their losing voice clip.
