Dream Long Jump (Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games)

Dream Long Jump appears in the Wii version of Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, now taking place at Yoshi's Picture Book from Yoshi's Story. The game involves players jumping on clouds to see how far they can travel before falling into the water. Falling off the stage results in elimination. Results are given after the final player falls off.

During the event, several giant Bullet Bills and Big Cheep Cheeps appear and attack the competitors. Fly Guys, balloons and Cleaving Clouds that split or disappear when Ground Pounded also help the players to jump through the course. After a player loses, they become flying bomb balloons and are able to push other players who are still competing.

During London Party mode, when the player faces off against Dry Bowser, they compete in this event.
