The '''Wall Jump''' (also spelled '''wall jump''' and 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 glitches. 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]]''. | In many early games, before the implementation of the actual wall jumping mechanic, maneuvers similar to the wall jump exist as glitches.

In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Mailtoad]] mentions that [[Captain Toad]] has the ability to Wall Jump, as he was able to scale a canyon in pursuit of [[The Chimp]] in the [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]]; however, Captain Toad is unable to jump at all in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|ports of the same name]], and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', likely due to his heavy backpack. [[Toad]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Rosalina]] are able to Wall Jump in ''Super Mario 3D World'' and ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''. | In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Mailtoad]] mentions that [[Captain Toad]] has the ability to Wall Jump, as he was able to scale a canyon in pursuit of [[The Chimp]] in the [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]]; however, Captain Toad is unable to jump at all in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'', ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'', its Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS [[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch / Nintendo 3DS)|ports of the same name]], and ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', likely due to his heavy backpack.

In ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', characters can Wall Jump off of the sides of most walls and platforms by tapping the screen when they are holding on to a wall. In Toad Rally, performing consecutive Wall Jumps attracts more Toads. | In ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', characters can Wall Jump off of the sides of most walls and platforms by tapping the screen when they are holding on to a wall.
