8=d=? The move returns in Super Mario 64 DS, where Mario, Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario are able to perform the Sweep Kick. The move is activated by pressing the attack button while crouching, which are different buttons depending on the control setup. While Yoshi is able to perform the move, due to his low attack power, some enemies, such as Boos, are impervious to the attack.

A similar, albeit unnamed, move can be performed by Mario and Luigi in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. While crouching with Nunchuk Z Button, the player has to shake the Wii Remote or Nunchuk. Upon activating the move, the character will spin while crouched. Likewise, the Tail Spin from Super Mario 3D Land, Super Mario 3D World, and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury also acts similarly, though it is quicker and continuous and can be used while moving.

The Sweep Kick also is used by Luigi and Dr. Mario as their down smash attacks in all of the Super Smash Bros. installments they appear in, and it was also Mario's until it was replaced by his breakdance from Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
