My son loves this game. We have fun playing together as a family. It's like playing a board game without the mess. The mini games are hilarious and fun.


5 out of 5 stars Not easy to win   July 20, 2010

most kids say they don't like this game. As a parent, I like playing this with my child. I haven't won yet, it's not easy, and there is no setting that lasts less than an hour. But I don't hate it.


3 out of 5 stars coulda been better   June 28, 2010

I am a fan of the Mario Party games in the past, and I do enjoy this version as well. I just wish they would have upgraded it more for the Wii. The in game menus are slow and annoying after a while. The best new additions to the game were the new mini games that utilized the Wii-mote controls. Over all I thought this game could have been done a lot better.


4 out of 5 stars Not always pretty, but fun   June 14, 2010
Christine Casper (Westland, MI United States)
I love to play Mario Party, but sometimes it pains me to look at it. At times the styling, both visually (especially with the fonts and colors they use) and the music (both during board game play and for wins and such), are annoyingly bad. I don't remember being so bothered by the older versions of the game, but I didn't own them so who knows? That said, it's still really addictive and fun.

Also, I ordered it "used--like new" through fulfillment by Amazon (probably a return?) and the game looked brand new. I never would've known, had I not seen the order and had it not been shrink-wrapped. A+!
