The '''Wall Jump''' (or '''wall jump'''), also known as the '''Wall Kick''' (or '''wall kick'''), is a [[List of moves|special move]] that can be used by several [[List of characters|characters]], most notably [[Mario]]. The move is activated by [[jump]]ing towards a wall and hitting the jump button again upon colliding with the wall. If that is done in narrow passages, characters can jump between the walls to ascend to a higher [[platform]] or over an obstacle.

In many early games, before the implementation of the actual wall-jumping mechanic, maneuvers similar to the Wall Jump exist as [[glitch]]es. For example, in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', if Mario lands on a wall on a 16×16 boundary (so that his foot is on the top corner of a [[block]]), the player is able to jump from that point with frame-perfect timing. Similar glitches also exist in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', ''[[Super Mario World]]'', and ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''.

The Wall Jump itself was first implemented in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Here, if Mario jumps at a wall, he will bounce off, but if the player presses {{button|N64|A}} as soon as Mario hits the wall, he will kick off it instead, ascending higher than usual. If the player presses {{button|N64|A}} too late, Mario will simply fall down. The angle of the Wall Jump can also be adjusted, based on the angle Mario jumps at the wall. In games starting from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' onward, Mario slides down the wall, making wall-jumping easier and the timing of the jump adjustable. This characteristic carries over to ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', where Mario is the only character that can wall-jump. Due to the {{button|DS|A}} and {{button|DS|B}} buttons having their functions swapped, the text box that appears after the player collects the [[Mario Cap]] for the first time provides incorrect controls.

Starting from ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' onwards, [[Luigi]] is able to wall-jump as well. In the [[New Super Mario Bros. (disambiguation)|''New Super Mario Bros.'' series]], Mario, Luigi, [[Yellow Toad (New Super Mario Bros. series)|Yellow Toad]], and [[Blue Toad (character)|Blue Toad]] are capable of wall-jumping. In ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', [[Nabbit]] is also capable of wall-jumping. In ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' and ''New Super Luigi U'', the player can perform a [[Spin Jump]] while wall-jumping.

Starting in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', several characters can [[smashwiki:Wall jump|wall-jump]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]]; the move works by tilting the control stick in the direction away from the wall when against a wall. Since ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', some of these characters are able to [[smashwiki:Wall cling|wall-cling]] as well, which allows them to indefinitely stick to a wall as long as players hold the control stick in the direction facing the wall. Only six characters are able to wall-cling: [[Lucario]], [[Diddy Kong]], [[Squirtle]], [[Greninja]], [[Sheik]], and [[Bayonetta]].

Although [[Luigi]] was able to wall-jump in the E3 demo of ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', he cannot in the final game for unknown reasons.
