'''''Mario Party 3''''' is the third game in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series, released in Japan in 2000 and overseas the following year. It was the last ''Mario Party'' game to be released for the [[Nintendo 64]], as well as the last ''Super Mario'' game overall for the system in all regions except Australia, where ''[[Paper Mario]]'' was the last. The game is centered around the [[Millennium Star]], who replaces [[Toad]] as the host alongside [[Tumble]]. It includes 70 new minigames, as well as a feature unique to the ''Mario Party'' series: duel boards, on which two players fight each other using partners. In addition to the six characters from the previous ''Mario Party'' games returning, two new characters are introduced: [[Princess Daisy|Daisy]] and [[Waluigi]]. This game also introduces elements that would become standard in future ''Mario Party'' installments: it is the first game to feature a solo mode story campaign, mini-games that can be unlocked and played anytime without purchasing them first, and handicaps for players. In addition, more than three difficulty levels and choices of game length can be selected, and players can now hold up to three items instead of just one. | '''''Mario Party 3''''' is the third game in the ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' series, released in Japan in 2000 and overseas the following year.
