'''Capsule machines''' are objects that dispense [[Orb|capsules]] to players, appearing only in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''. If a player passes a capsule machine, they can get a random capsule for free. Capsule machines are based on the real-life ''{{wp|gashapon}}'' machines, sometimes known as capsule machines. Capsule machines have bolts for eyes and yellow mouths where the capsules come out. They also sport two yellow rod-like arms with blue balls on the end. In the official ''Mario Party 5'' guide, [[Mario]] mentions he introduced capsule machines because he wanted the capsules to be free. Despite this, a certain number of [[coin]]s is required to use a capsule, with its effect immediately taking effect after the player pays. However, coins are not required to throw capsules onto spaces to create [[Capsule Space]]s. After every [[minigame]], [[Eldstar]] can be seen with three capsule machines as the game saves. On the last turn on a [[Board (Mario Party series)|board]] game, capsule machines become unavailable. If the player has three capsules and uses the capsule machine, they must discard one of them. ''Mario Party 5'' is the first game where items can be discarded if the player has more than the maximum.

In ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', [[Orb Space]]s replace Capsule machines, also giving a free random Orb to players that pass it. [[Orb hut]]s also appear, allowing a player to buy a specific Orb for a certain amount of coins. Orbs obtained either way can be used for free.
