'''Spinning''' is a move that [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Co-Star Luma]], and [[Rosalina]] can perform in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''. It is done when the player shakes the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] or [[Wii#Nunchuk|Nunchuk]]. Mario gains this ability in the [[Gateway Galaxy]], after being entrusted with [[Luma (character)|Luma]]'s care. In addition to being a main method of attacking enemies, performing a spin is the only way to activate [[Launch Star]]s, which let Mario fly through the cosmos like a comet and reach new planets and galaxies, making it a vital move throughout the game. It seems to have taken inspiration from the [[Mario Tornado]], which itself is based off the [[Spin Jump]] However, once Mario performs a spin, he cannot do it again until he touches solid ground, and [[Luma (character)|Luma]] "recharges". | '''Spinning''' is a move that [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Co-Star Luma]], and [[Rosalina]] can perform in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''.

It can also be used to deflect certain projectiles, activate switches, break [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|Crystal]]s, swim faster, and even pick up certain [[items]] that are nearby. After performing a spin, Mario or Luigi must wait a short period for Luma to return to his hat before he is able to spin again, with Luigi's wait being slightly longer. | It can also be used to deflect certain projectiles, activate switches, break [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|Crystal]]s, swim faster, and even pick up certain [[List of items|items]] that are nearby.

It also appears that after his first defeat in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', [[Bowser]] uses the power of a [[Grand Star]] to attack Mario with a move similar to Mario's spin. Mario is able to negate this spin by performing one of his own. | It also appears that after his first defeat in ''Super Mario Galaxy'', [[Bowser]] uses the power of a [[Grand Star]] to attack Mario with a move similar to Mario's spin.
