Cannonball Fun is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party 6. The name is a reference to Cannonball Run, the name of a few related movies.
The only difference between the day and night versions of this minigame is the decorations on the side of the arena; during the day, the decorations resemble suns, and at night, they are partially lit up to appear as moons.
Introduction[edit]
The first player flies in their hovercraft around the arena and comes to a stop before the camera zooms to the angle seen in the minigame and the screen splits in four.
Gameplay[edit]
Players pilot hovercrafts around an arena, firing cannonballs at each other. Each hovercraft has a cannon on the left and right sides, and the cannons fire alternately. When a player hits an opponent, that player earns a point. When a player is hit, that player is stunned for a moment. The first player to obtain five points wins. If nobody earns points within the time limit, the minigame ends in a tie.
Ending[edit]
The players are lined up, with only the winner in their hovercraft. The winner waves while the losers do losing animations. If a tie occurs, all players are lined up and do their losing animations with none of them being in a hovercraft.
Controls[edit]
- – Move
- – Fire
- – Tilt left

In-game text[edit]
- Rules – "Hop in a hovership and open fire on your opponents! Each hit on a foe is worth one point. Whoever earns five points first wins!"
- Advice – "The left and right cannons on your hovership will fire alternately. Aim carefully!"
