Mario Party 10 Wii U Review | Impulse Gamer

IG:
Turn the clock back fifteen years and Mario Party was the most durable multiplayer game of the Nintendo 64. It was the creator of many fun times and the destroyer of many friendships, like a family board game that blends in strategy and most obviously, pure luck. Ten home console games, three handheld games, and three arcade machines later, even though the Mario Party games have been average and repetitive from the beginning, the series is renowned for how quickly it gets people together on one couch and starts arguments just as fast. Mario Party 10 continues that legacy for a whole new generation, but veteran players might not adapt well to this new generation.

Are you sharing the ad revenue from this review? You wouldn't have a successful website if it weren't for the hard work of developers. Its Nintendo's product so they have every right to claim this as their own and take some of the revenue. If Nintendo doesn't like this review then they can just delete it and only approve the positive reviews, it's their property so they can do whatever they want.

See how full of it you Nintendo defenders are and how clueless you are on how much of an influence social media and gaming websites have on the industry. And for the last time video games aren't the same as music and movies. You will get the same thing over and over again if you replay a movie 50 times. Gamers have their own play styles which provides different experiences.

So you're saying you're going to get a different experience every time you play a Mario game? Yes, some Nintendo defenders are full of it. But so are you.

Of course I change it up almost every time I play. Sometimes I speed run, try to 100% complete levels, multiplayer with other people talking provides different experiences. The biggest issue with this program is the 3 day hold on all videos. There is nothing stopping Nintendo from deleting all videos that put their products in a bad light. Could you imagine during the bf4 disaster If EA deleted all of the videos bashing the broken game? It would be a PR nightmare.

Then that would be their PR nightmare to deal with. The public has no right to privately owned IP, so Nintendo, EA, Ubi, etc. have the right to protect their property in any way they please. If that means censoring "bad" videos from public view then so be it. Like you said, we'd all know very quickly what trick they're trying to pull and then they'd have some explaining to do. But it is their decision.

And don't mistake me thinking that I think Nintendo is making the right choice on being this limiting, I think it's in their best interest to allow what is essentially free advertising for their games. But if they don't want people making money off their hard work without them getting their cut, then that's their right to do so.

I gave up after Mario Party 8, but this looks fun.

Only the Bowser sections looks any good the rest looks pretty awful and not a big fan of the Amiibo/DLC ;)

Wow, Nintendo really needs to get their act together. First Rainbow Curse bombed because they ruined it by making you play the game on the gamepad (without any buttons), then Mario Party 10 bombed because of the awful controls and crappy gameplay. Shame they can't seem to put out good products anymore.

I doubt rainbow curse would've done any better if you could use buttons. It was just on the wrong platform, it belongs on a handheld
