 'Party' Pooper Oct 23, 2009
The "Mario Party" franchise has finally branched out to the Nintendo DS, cutting the fun--literally and figuratively--down to size. In the game you guide a miniaturized Mario and company through colorful board games that decide who gets to save the day. To do that, 4 players face off in a series of minigames to earn coins to trade for stars, and the player with the most stars gets to fight a boss character and advance. Now that's all well and good, but I've come across some problems, one being the mixed bag of minigames. While mostly intended for the pre-teem crowd and mastered with little practice, the concepts of some games, like driving a racecar by spinning a wheel with the stylus, are just a little out there.
Also, if you earn enough special points, you win a bunch of prizes. Now I like virtual figures and trophies and props as much as the next guy, but nothing replaces new characters, games, and play modes (which mostly consist of the minigames you've already played a hundred times). By then, the bag of treats you get from "Mario Party DS" gets pretty stale pretty fast.
This game is rated E for Everyone: Comic Mischief.
Kind of Boring Oct 14, 2009
I just thought the game was more of an adventure game but it wasn't, but overall it was ok.
It's not bad. But not my favorite. Sep 22, 2009
When I was younger, I absolutely loved Mario Party for N64. I had almost all of them and spent hours playing them with my friends, and by myself!
My mom bought this as gift for me. We went to best buy, debating over either this game, or Peggle. And now I wish I would have chosen peggle. It not only was $10 cheaper, but probably would have been much more worth the $30 that was spent on this.
For a while, I enjoyed it. It was exactly what I had expected and almost identical to N64. But after playing this the entire ride home (I was spending the weekend at my mother's house, who lives about 40 minutes from any type of big city where I could buy this) I was done. I pretty much got to see everything that this game has to offer in one short sitting. The actual board game part of the game seems to drag on and on, the computer players are cheaters lol, like in every other game, and the mini games are the only good part of the game, as it always has been.
I'd buy this used if I were you.
I would sell mine, but I just feel horrible about selling things I've barely touched, especially if they were given to me.
Better on the Wii Sep 01, 2009
This is a super fun game with lots to do the only drawback is that, Mario Party is much more fun with more than 2 people playing. There are only a few different boards to play on and its quite simple to play but it isn't the same fun. Nonetheless its a great play if you don't have a wii.
 Granddaughter loves it! Aug 29, 2009
The seller was very prompt in sending this game that I bought on Amazon and my granddaughters love playing it on their DS.
