If you became a Nintendo gamer in the last decade, missed Mario Party 2 back in 2000 or if you just can't play it on your N64 any more because someone broke your controllers with an ill-advised extra round of MP1, then definitely jump on board for this VC re-release. It's well worth its asking price in Wii Points and may make you the life of the party.
Grab your friends for more anarchic boardgame madness in Mario's second party release
Mario Party 1 has been regarded as one of the worst Mario titles ever: Nintendo did a better job with Mario Party 2.
The greatest "drinking beer with your friends and like 1 of their kids is there too" series of all time deserves more respect.
This week, Game Informer published their review for Super Mario Party. They described the game as something that’s fun to play.
What you may not know is 18 years ago, when Game Informer reviewed Mario Party and Mario Party 2, they gave both games very negative reviews.
How did Nintendo respond to these negative reviews? They sent a framed poster to Game Informer.
Eh i really enjoyed the first game on the 64, but as with everything else.. each to his own. I'm not fussed on Smash brothers or Pokemon either but plenty seem to like them.
People just love to bash at the end of the day. I don't pay attention to game reviews all that much unless they are all rated low, like in the 4-5 range, same with films.
The first two were the best ones, at least in my opinion. The first was an interesting, and skin losing, experience. The second outing really expanded on the formula and delivered some fun mini games. Nevertheless, I appreciate Nintendo's humor, or Howard Lincoln's rather, and Game Informer's "glowing" opinion.
