| | '''Ground Pound''' is a one-player mini-game found in ''[[Mario Party]]''. Before the game starts, the player has to look carefully at the pegs before the butterflies cover the tops. [[Ground Pound]] all the pegs with the flat tops to win. Ground Pounding the pegs with a pointy top caused the player to lose time (and gave them pain). Sometimes, the [[Butterfly|butterflies]] do not cover the pegs up completely, giving a better advantage for the player. |

In gameplay, the player tries to [[Ground Pound|hip-drop]] every peg with a flat top, but if they do so on one with a pointed top, it stuns them briefly. | | *The term "Ground Pound" wasn't used in the mini-game descriptions in ''[[Mario Party]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 2]]''. Instead the term used was "Hip Drop". This was changed to "Ground Pound" in the later ''Mario Party'' games. |

| ==Notes==
| |
| *The minigame descriptions in ''Mario Party'' and ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' use the phrase "Hip Drop" despite the minigame title, whereas the move would not be called "Ground Pound" until ''[[Mario Party 3]]'' onward.
| |
| *When the minigame is played by a CPU character of any difficulty, they always hip-drop an incorrect peg for every correct one.{{ref needed}}
