Mario Party

2007

Overall rating: 3.5 out of 5

The Mario Party franchise which has done so well for Nintendo on the N64, GameCube and Wii has made its way to the DS. In keeping with the DSs compactness, Nintendo has aptly opted to make the theme of the game being of restricted height. Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi and the crew have all been shrunk down by the maniacal Bowser. To rectify the situation, the gang has to make it home, grabbing the five crystal pieces that will get them back up to size as they go. Such is the glue that binds Mario Party DSs single player story mode together. As they go, players will have to make their way through various areas, completing minigames (there are over 70 in total) as they go. As you'd expect, many of the games make use of the touchscreen and stylus, but you'll also find a few that use the old fashioned buttony bits and the DS microphone. DS wireless connectivity is fully supported, so up to four players can duke it out at once. One cartridge multiplayer is also supported, meaning that many of the games can be downloaded to other consoles from just the one cart.

Fun Game!

By Haywood (4 reviews) , 20 Dec 2012

Mario Party on the go! This is a really good game to keep you entertained. Not as good as console versions and story mode is quite short. Still lots of fun though.

mmmm not bad

By mEeeeeeeeeeeE (3 reviews) from Middlewich , 16 Mar 2009

This is a great collection of mini games that kept me going for days on end. The board game story mode is very short and will be over in a couple of evenings but the mini games will last a lot longer

excellent gaming

By a customer from London , 05 Dec 2008

I thoroughly enjoyed this game, an exciting game. The levels were quite hard to beat if you havent played it for a while. The only down fall of the game is that it is very short, I managed to complete it within 3days.

Definately going to buy it

Hope this helps
