The '''Wire Spin''', also referred to as the '''Bar Spin''',<ref>''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' American English Nintendo 3DS [[Virtual Console]] digital manual, tab 12: "Advanced Controls".</ref> is an ability that characters can use when they grab on to taut [[wire]]s or horizontal bars, where they continuously rotate around it, much like a gymnastic skill known as the {{wp|Giant (gymnastics)|giant}}, for a higher [[jump]]. A similar move, known as the [[Super Whirl Jump]], appears in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. | |||

The Wire Spin's first appearance is in ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' for the [[Game Boy]]. In the game, Mario can use it when the player holds {{button|padup}}; the longer {{button|padup}} is held, the faster he spins, and the higher and/or farther he can jump afterwards (depending on wire orientation). The player can also press {{button|paddown}} or let go of the D-Pad to make Mario slow down or stop. He can either do a small jump to make sure he does not go into a dangerous hazard (such as a bed of [[Spike Trap|spike]]s) by jumping too far, or do a larger jump to make it over large hazards or reach places he cannot reach normally. | The Wire Spin's first appearance is in ''[[Donkey Kong (Game Boy)|Donkey Kong]]'' for the [[Game Boy]].

In ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', [[Wario]] can perform a Bar Spin<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080924150410/http://www.wariolandshakeit.com/launch/index.html North American website for ''Wario Land: Shake It!''] (Archived)</ref> when he comes in contact with a horizontal bar or rope, latching onto it automatically. As Wario hangs from the bar, he swings around it when the player shakes the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]. When the player presses the {{button|wii|2}} button, Wario can maneuver to another bar. He must be careful to time his jumps from one bar to the next; he may be injured by enemy forces. | |||
