Pedal to the Paddle is a Bowser Jr. minigame in Mario Party 9. The name is a pun on the phrase "pedal to the metal" or "pedal to the medal." This minigame is set in New Super Mario Bros. Wii's airship levels.

Introduction

The players and Bowser Jr. jump from wooden platforms to wheels with five platforms each.

Gameplay

The pair must try to reach the finish before Bowser Jr. by jumping on the platforms to make the wheel progress. Players must keep jumping to the rightmost platform so that weight pushes the wheel toward the goal. At the bottom of the screen is a meter that shows how close players are to the end. If a player falls off the wheel, they will reappear in a bubble a few seconds later. The player will automatically free themself from the bubble. Whoever is operating the wheel that reaches the end first is the winner.

Ending

If the players are victorious, the captain does a ground pound on a switch. Bowser Jr. looks surprised, and then his entire wheel falls off, causing him to scream as he falls. The players strike victory poses. If Bowser Jr. is victorious, he laughs evilly.

In-game text

  • Rules – "Work with your teammate to rotate your wheel by jumping on the platforms that will spin it to the right. Reach the goal before Bowser Jr. to win!"
