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}}'' and ''{{s|mariowiki|Super Mario Maker 2}}'', 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''. | ||
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. | ||
Some characters unable to wall jump in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series have been able to wall jump in their own games. Luigi can wall jump in the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' series (but not in ''Super Mario 64 DS'', in which it was a power unique to Mario), in ''Super Mario 3D World'' along with [[Princess Peach|Peach]] and [[Rosalina]], in ''Super Mario Run'' along with Peach, [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]], and [[Yoshi]], and ''Mario Maker 2'' along with [[Toad]] and Toadette. [[Luigi]] and [[Bowser Jr.]] can also wall jump in ''Mario Superstar Baseball''. [[Donkey Kong]] can wall jump in ''Jungle Beat''. [[Kirby]] can wall jump with the ninja ability in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'', though it functioned more like a [[wall cling]]. | Some characters unable to wall jump in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series have been able to wall jump in their own games.
