Template:Minigame-infobox Pedal to the Paddle is a Bowser Jr. minigame in Mario Party 9. The name is a pun on the phrase "Pedal to the metal".

Introduction

The players and Bowser Jr. jump from wooden platforms to wheels with five platforms each.

Gameplay

The pair must try to reach the finish before Bowser Jr. by jumping on the platforms to make the wheel progress. Players must keep jumping to the rightmost platform, so that weight pushes the wheel toward the goal. At the bottom of the screen is a meter that shows how close players are to the end. If a player falls off of the wheel, they will reappear in a bubble a few seconds later. Players will automatically free themselves from the bubble. Whoever is operating the wheel that reaches the end first is the winner.

Ending

If the players are victorious, the Captain does a ground pound on a switch. Bowser Jr. looks surprised, and then his entire wheel falls off.
