The wall jump is a common ability in platforming games. Several of the characters who have wall jumps here have had them in games of their own. Mario, Samus, Sonic, Mega Man and Pac-Man have performed wall jumps in their own series: Mario in ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario 64}}'' and its sequel of sorts, ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Sunshine}}'', the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series, the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' series, ''Super Mario 3D Land'' and ''3D World'', ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker}}'' (only in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' playstyle) and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker 2}}'' (in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' and ''3D World'' playstyles), and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Odyssey}}''; Samus in all games except ''Metroid'', ''Metroid II'', and ''Metroid Prime''; Sonic in ''Sonic the Fighters'' (also known as ''Sonic Championship''), ''Sonic Heroes'' (in the latter Sonic could do a horizontal wall jump known as the Triangle Jump), ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' (2006), ''Sonic Unleashed'', ''Sonic Colors'', ''Sonic Generations'' and ''Sonic Lost World''; Mega Man in ''Mega Man: The Power Battle'', ''Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters'' and ''Marvel vs. Capcom''; and Pac-Man in ''Pac-Man World 3''. | The wall jump is a common ability in platforming games.

There is some debate as to whether or not ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' is the first instance of wall-jumping in Nintendo games, as in that game the technique was a glitch (which may have become noteworthy enough to be included as a real mechanic later on in ''Super Mario 64''); however, the ''Mario'' series is generally given credit for popularizing the move. | There is some debate as to whether or not ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' is the first instance of wall-jumping in Nintendo games, as in that game the technique was a glitch (which may have become noteworthy enough to be included as a real mechanic later on in ''Super Mario 64''); however, the ''Mario'' series is generally given credit for popularizing the move. | ||
