Mario Can-Can

Template:Minigame-infobox Mario Can-Can is a 2-vs-2 minigame found in Mario Party 5. Its name comes from "can-can," a type of dance.

Gameplay

Each team is in charge of opening a can, done so by jumping on or ground-pounding platforms attached to a can opener. As the players continue to jump or ground-pound, the can opener slowly goes around the top of the can, opening it. Players must take turns jumping or ground-pounding in order to get the most leverage from each jump or Ground Pound. The first team to open its can and release the contents wins.

• Candies – Various sweets erupt from the can.
• Flowers – Flowers erupt from the can.
• Balloons – Balloons fly out of the can.
