Domination

Introduction
The camera pans down a long row of Whomps, stopping on the four players. The Whomps then disappear into the ground as the game starts.
Gameplay
The goal is to set up the most Whomps, which act as dominoes. Each character wields a mallet and a switch. Each time the switch is hit, a Whomp is set up. When the time is up, the character knocks over the Whomps. The character with the most Whomps knocked over wins.
Ending
The players punch the Whomps, knocking them over like dominoes. After all are knocked over, at least one more Whomp appears in front of the winning line, holding a flag, with the winner(s) on top. The winner(s) do(es) a victory pose.

Trivia
- This mini-game is based on Hudson Soft's Shooting Watch. The highest possible score is 160, most likely because that is Takahashi Meijin's trademark number of button presses in 10 seconds.
