Spinning is done when the player shakes {{button|wii|wiimote}} or {{button|wii|nunchuk}}. In ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]'', it can be performed by pressing {{button|switch|x}}, {{button|switch|y}} or by shaking either {{button|switch|joy-con}}. Although the difference is minor, Mario’s spin is higher if the player shakes {{button|wii|wiimote}} or {{button|switch|joy-con-r}} while Luigi’s spin is higher if the player shakes {{button|wii|nunchuk}} or {{button|switch|joy-con-l}}.<ref>https://twitter.com/MarioBrothBlog/status/1729159039890940366</ref> In addition to being a main method of attacking enemies, performing a spin is the only way to activate [[Launch Star]]s, which let Mario fly through the cosmos like a comet and reach new planets and galaxies, making it a vital move throughout the game. It can also add some height to his jumps, deflect certain projectiles, activate switches, break [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|crystal]]s, let him [[swim]] faster, and even pick up certain [[List of items|items]] that are nearby. However, once Mario performs a spin, he must wait a short period for [[Baby Luma]] to return to his hat before he is able to spin again, with Luigi's wait time being slightly longer. Also, he can spin only once in midair, as Baby Luma returns to his hat after he lands on solid ground.

Mario gains this ability after being entrusted with Baby Luma's care. Here, spinning is one of Mario's few attacks, with the ability to stun, freeze, or make enemies dizzy by spinning into them. This gives Mario a chance to escape or attack the enemies. Spinning is needed to defeat some bosses. Spinning also causes Mario to skate on icy surfaces. By combining this move with a [[Long Jump|long jump]], Mario can chain a spin into a [[double kick]], and if he spins in midair and immediately [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]s, he automatically homes in on nearby objects or enemies.
