Editing Bowser's Block Battle

'''Bowser's Block Battle''' is the final boss [[minigame]] featured in ''[[Mario Party 9]]''. This and [[Bowser Jr. Breakdown]] are the only boss minigames played on [[Bowser Station]], and players cannot choose from three other boss minigames. The same happens on [[DK's Jungle Ruins]]. [[Bowser]] fights as [[Giant Bowser|Super Bowser]] as he increases in size.

The view is on the players, who are standing on a stone platform floating in space. The view shifts to the front of the platform as the already enlarged Bowser appears, roars furiously, and pulls some [[Dice Block|dice]] out in his hand.

The players must attack Bowser by rolling dice marked with their own faces and Bowser [[emblem]]s on the remaining sides. These dice are not typical Dice Blocks but objects that players can pick up and throw if they want to change what faces up. After 10 seconds, the rolls are set and dice can no longer be picked up (dice that are held by players when the time limit expires are thrown automatically, and the rolls are included). The dice that show the players' faces are converted into energy balls that players can shoot at Bowser for [[point]]s. Players attack in decreasing order of number of dice with their faces shown, so those with the most dice make the first move, and those with the fewest dice take a turn last. Players with equal numbers of dice with their characters' faces attack together. After every player attacks, if any dice show his emblem, Bowser attacks by spitting a trio of [[fireball]]s once for each die, and anybody hit by a fireball loses one point. If no dice show his emblem, Bowser grabs the board in disbelief and groans in frustration. Bowser then throws a new set of dice onto the stage, and the process repeats.

*[[King Boo]] summons two separate groups of [[Boo]]s that spin in gradually expanding circles. The first group spins clockwise or counterclockwise, and the second group spins in the opposite direction.

*[[Blooper]] floats near the front of the arena (where Bowser is) and tosses 10 [[Urchin]]s at the players.

*[[Chain Chomp]] drops into the middle of the arena and charges at the players. When it hits a wall, it changes direction. Players must dodge a few charges before Chain Chomp leaves the arena.

*If Bowser rolls his own image on the die, he launches five waves of fireballs straight ahead. The waves alternate between three and four fireballs, forcing players to weave between them.

 

Whoever delivers the final attack on Bowser earns an additional three points, and the player with the most points at the end of the minigame wins. If Bowser is not defeated before five minutes pass, the minigame ends in a draw.

Once defeated, Bowser flies into the [[black hole]] behind the battlefield and explodes, revealing several [[Mini Star]]s in Party Mode and Solo Mode.

* '''Rules''' – ''"Throw the dice! The more pictures of your character that show up on the dice, the more damage you'll do to Bowser. Be careful: if Bowser shows up on the dice, he gets to attack!"''

* '''Controls''' – ''"Hold the Wii Remote sideways. Press {{button|wii|Pad}} to move. Press {{button|wii|2}} while standing next to a die to pick it up. Press {{button|wii|2}} while holding a die to throw it."''
