Wall Jump

The Wall Jump is a move that Mario, Luigi or Donkey Kong can use in various games. In narrow passageways Mario and Luigi can use it to ascend to the top. They jump wall to wall with a little more height with each Jump. They can reach great heights, cross wide gaps, or save themselves from falling into a bottomless pit. In most games, the move can be done by pressing the jump button while sliding down a wall. It has been used in many platformer games. In Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis, Mini Marios can Wall Jump on certain occasions, mostly on Wall Jump Bars.

The move first appeared in Super Mario 64 and later in the remake. It also appeared in Super Mario Sunshine and Super Smash Bros. Melee. Later, it made an appearance in Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat where Donkey Kong was shown being capable of using this move. The move later appeared in New Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Galaxy and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
