It's the first game in the friendship-destroying Mario Party series!
Developed by Hudson and released near the fresh new year of 1999, Mario Party is first entry in this spinoff subseries mixing board games with mini-games.
Mario and his pals are arguing about who is the true super star and Toad suggests they help out in the worlds beyond in the warp pipe in the nearby Mushroom Village. After choosing one of six characters, you'll be launched into one of six levels where you'll be tasked with buying stars from Toad in the hopes of giving that level a good outcome. After everyone has moved, a mini-game starts up and you'll have a chance to earn some more cash.
There's much more to the game than the boards with items to buy, a mini-game island to explore and rumors of hidden levels yet to be found. Hm, do some of these characters sound different than Im used to?
Mario Party came out in most territories on the N64, but it seems unlikely to ever be available on Virtual Console. This is probably because this game is notorious for mini-game where you rotate the control stick. As most kids used their palms for best results, blisters started cropping up and hands around the country were damaged. After a slew of complaints, Nintendo decided to issue gloves to owners of the game to help prevent more hand issues from occuring.
This is Ninchronicles, the show where we cover Nintendo's entire game library!
