We decided to have a go at the last "real" Mario Party, too!

This Mario Party outing is pretty fun! They seem to try a lot more gimmicks on the boards and such, though. Like, in this map we have no idea where the star is, 'cause the board map shuffles rooms around each time! Also the use of the wii-remote invited them to try a lot of kinda gimmicky shakey games. Not that they are all that bad, but you can see where they are phoning it in at times. Some games feel... inaccurate 'cause of this.

Anyway, good fun!

Technical Notes: This game appears to only be 60fps in minigames and perhaps some menu screens. The main board map is only 30 fps! What's also curious is that the menus and stuff are pretty close to widescreen, but the main game itself is more of a 4:3 aspect ratio, or, "square". Oddstuffs.
