A roll cancel is performed by pressing X or Y, followed almost immediately by A or B (the buttons can also be pressed simultaneously). This will cause Mario to break out of the roll and throw Cappy in the direction that the joystick is being held. | |||
In two-player mode, the window to perform the second input is smaller, meaning the two buttons should be pressed at the same time. | |||
