History

Donkey Kong (Game Boy)

The Wire Spin's first appearance is in Donkey Kong for the Game Boy. In the game, Mario can use it by holding +Control Pad up; the longer he does so, he faster he spins, and the higher and/or longer he can jump afterwards (depending on wire orientation). He can also press +Control Pad down or let go of the D-Pad to slow down or stop. Mario can either do a small jump to make sure he doesn't go into a dangerous hazard (like a bed of Spikes) by jumping too far, or a large jump to make it over larger hazards or reach places he can't reach normally.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong

The move returns in Mario vs. Donkey Kong, where it is executed the same way as in Donkey Kong for the Game Boy.
