'''Backflips''' can be performed by [[Mario]] in ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' for [[Game Boy]] as well as ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]'' for [[Game Boy Advance]]. The player can do backflips by pressing {{button|gb|A}} while moving and pressing the {{button|gb|pad}} into the opposite direction. Backflips allow Mario to quickly reach higher platforms. They reach higher than [[High Jump]]s, but require movement to execute them, so they cannot be done on small platforms easily.
 
The Backflip returns in ''[[Super Mario Run]]'', where characters perform it if the screen is tapped while they are on a [[Backflip Block]].
