The move returns in Super Mario 64 DS, where Mario, Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario are able to perform the Sweep Kick. The move is activated by pressing the attack button while crouching, which are different buttons depending on the control setup. While Yoshi is able to perform the move, due to his low attack power, some enemies, such as Boos, are impervious to the attack.
A similar, albeit unnamed, move can be performed by Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. While crouching with

The Sweep Kick also is used by Luigi and Dr. Mario as their down smash attacks in all of the Super Smash Bros. instalments they appear in, and was also Mario's until it was replaced with his breakdance from Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
