Oh hey, I see you've won all the minigames and have the most coins and stars. Allow me to fuck that all up by one lucky spin, block punch, star power, deus ex machina fuck all move, and take your stars for the win. Still friends right? Eat a bag of dicks, Bobby! This is why I never let you pick the games!

You haven't played Mario Party unless you lost some skin on the palm of your hand by trying to spin the joystick as fast as possible.

You don't know true rage against your friends until you've played Dokapon Kingdom. It literally prides itself on being a friendship destroying game

Isn't that half the fun? Yelling at each other, backstabbing, holding grudges(for the game's duration), ect. Works best with a few beers.

The entire point of mario party is to get drunk and be the biggest asshole you can be, why would someone get mad

thedarkdragon89 · 1 month

I don't think it's coincidence that you used Mario Party 6 for this, considering Mario Party After Dark 6 was on last night.

That's why you play with only 3 people, that way you can all gang up on the computer character. Everyone is happy. Even that fourth guy watching.

I remember when this first came out and my younger brother bought it. It was such a cluster fuck game that broke more n64 controllers than all other games combined. Having to rotate the damn joystick super fast just wore it the fuck out so bad.

Are me and my friends the only people that play this and actually have fun and don't hate each other afterwords?

Mario Party 6 had the best minigame of all time; Dunk Bros. We spent hours just playing that, getting stupidly good at it :D

Otherwise, Dokapon Kingdoms is the same thing except better

this might be relevant

also: TYL they took out the joystick rotating minigames after the first edition because they broke too many controllers

The only good thing about playing Mario Party with friends is the knowledge that they are as miserable as you.

My friends and I play Mario Party as a drinking game fairly regularly. When you steal a star you get to send a shot, so the hatred is wonderfully visceral.

I stole a Star from my GF 5 years ago, and she hasn't played a video game, or any game, with me since.

It's not like I had a choice, the had the most stars.

Really? Mario Party 2 and 3 are a must-play when my three best friends and I get together (along with Super Smash Bros). We have an interesting dynamic - the one guy who is great at everything in the game, two who are pretty good with most of the mini games, and one who is bad except for that one mini game he always wins.

We've played upwards of 60-80 games together, but it wasn't until winter 2010-2011 where we finally encountered the wacky watch. One of the guys obtained it by landing on a +6 coin space (we were within the last 5 turns) and a floating Toad appeared above his head. After answering one of the questions from Toad, he got the watch. Even the kid who had played the game way too much had no idea what was going on. On his next turn, he used it. Turns out, it adds five more moves to the game. The guy ended up landing on a shy-guy mini game in the span of one of those turns and took the win from us.

tl;dr Friend got the wacky watch, won a shy guy game to win the overall game, and we are all still best friends.

I don't think you could steal stars in the original Mario Party. Not surprisingly, that one is rated the highest out of the entire series.

That's not Dota. Have you ever played a dota-like game with a friend that can't play as good as you? That's a real test of friendship.

I like the direction they went with this franchise. Creating a soccer mini-game without any other game modes available and then removing all Nintendo characters, naming it FIFA 12.

Bonus stars, man. For many they are an afterthought, but there are 3 UNSTEALABLE stars. Sure, you can lose a completely luck based duel at the very end of the game to lose your right for most money star, minigame star and the tiebreaker money in case you end up with the same amount of stars, but it's the idea that counts.

I managed to finish one game with ~20 stars. ONCE IN A LIFETIME ACOMPLISHMENT.

played with a few friends, all around my skill level and halfway through this map where you would go to a certain spot and could buy as many stars as you want I managed to get the best possible coins - star ratio. I was basically constantly laughing the remaining half of the game, trolling as much as I could

My friends and I still play MP 1-3.

It's come to a point where we can only play certain maps, because people abuse chance time if it's too easy to land on the spaces.

It does almost fuck up your family too, my 3 little sisters and I used to play one of them on NGC (Mario Party 5), we did it a few times - and only a few times - because It always ended up with them bitching and screaming on each other, insults finally being loud enough to make my mother get in the living room and sort of ground them while I was remaining calm the whole time thinking "GIRLS Y U NO SHUT THE FUCK UP N PLAY".

My relationship with my cousin was almost broken because of mario party. It was thanksgiving day. i remember it like yesterday. My cousin was wario i was luigi and the computers were peach and yoshi. The game was mario party 2 my personal favorite. With 5 turns left my cousin leads with 7 stars. I had 2, yoshi with zero and peach with 3. My cousin had never won many challenges he just stole stars and got lucky rolls. It was clear that i would win all the bonus stars because i won the most challenges and had a ton of coins that i could basically do nothing with. Well anyway in the 5th to last turn i hit a question mark or explanation point i cant remember. all i know is that it took me to a place where there were 3 blocks the ends had peoples faces on them and the middle block had different things those people had to do such as give stars exchange coins etc. So i land on wario and yoshi exchanging all their stars. so my cousin now has zero stars and no coins basically. Yoshi now controls the game. Nest round i land on boo and steal a star from yoshi. SAME TURN i hit a mystery block with a star in it. now i have 4 stars and yoshi has 6. Well long story short i got all the bonus stars won the game and it took me weeks to hear from my cousin lmao

The last game of this I ever played ended abruptly with my roommate saying "Game over, assholes" as she unplugged the Gamecube from the wall.

momsdayprepper · 1 month

The trick is to only play with 3 players and not 4, so that you always have a computer player to bully. It's not nearly as competitive (and some might say not as fun) but it certainly tones down the violent language and rage you feel while playing.

Me and my friends settled on this after a fist-fight almost broke out because, apparently, alcohol and this game are a near-lethal combination.

majora789 · 1 month

It was a real kick in the balls when you finally got a star then some f##ker paid a Boo to steal it from you. Grrrrr.......

My boyfriend and I make it clear when we play Mario Party. We are single until the game is over.

A very good friend of mine and I have a healthy rivalry when it comes to this series. We were playing Koopa's Tycoon Town (I actually like all of them and don't think they're crap, sue me.) and he was beating me badly. I brought it back like a boss and we still laugh about it to this day.

My boyfriend and I also teamed up once and beat a team of computers like hell. It was so fun. :D

Mario Kart is exactly the same. Miles in the lead, nobody anywhere near you, nothing but fucking bananas from the power-up boxes, all of a sudden BLAM! FUCKING BLUE TURTLESHELL. The pathetic wee jump and spin on the spot for you and whoever was in 2nd place and that "AH-AH-AH-AH-AAOOOOOW", while everyone overtakes you.

FUCK

I totally raped my friends in the games ... had most coins most of the time, but due to lacking luck I never made it to stars fast enough. Then friends seem to be uber lucky, steal all my shit and win the 50 rounds game that took hours. Plus the annoying bonus stars. I always got 1, the one for most won minigames, the others were never claimed to be mine. I loved the game anyway, since it was a game where my friends could compete with me, they would not just get their asses kicked, but they'd eventually team up, always steal my shit whenever they can, due to me winning every shitty mini game and with good results, I never actually won this shit. Prefer this to SSB, or MarioKart, because in both of these games I was extremely good too, due to me being a true fucking nerd gamer, friends could not keep up with that, but Mario fucking Party, was a fucking party for them indeed.
