10 years of Mario Party

Well, 10 years have flown by since the first Mario Party has been released for Nintendo 64. Somehow, I wish I could make those Mini-games start all over again...

But aerodynamically speaking, this is the 10th anniversary of the most adored series of board games, Mario Party. time has flown and 11 Mario Party games, with the namesakes of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, Advance, DS, and -e were released. In this topic you can share the memories of your favorite Mario Party games.

Starting with me, my memories of the first game were limitless. I always loved to play it non-stop. The only games I did have trouble with were the ones where you had to rotate the 3D stick very fast in order to win, especially that tug o' war game. It was frustrating. Especially if Bowser annoucned it was his tug o' war where he would steal your coins if you lost.

Mario Party was a great game to play with your friends who suck at video games.

I don't see why you'd ever play it by yourself or when you're with people competent enough to handle other multiplayer games, though.

I remember thinking Mario Party was boring in the 90's.

In retrospect, it's the forefather of Nintendo's current marketing scheme.

I use to really like the Mario Party franchise a long time ago. It would be possible or impossible for 9 and 10 to be released.

More to my opinion about MP, these party games are very fun, and mini-games are awesome.

Congrats on being part of Nintendo's target audience.

I loved the mini game( forgot the name ) were you were in a tiny air ship and tried to shoot down the other players. I think this was in Mario Party 3. The last Mario Party I played was the 8th. It was pretty good especially with the Motion controls. I would love to see an annaversary game, and an online MP would be awesome too!
