Pixel Perfect is a 2-vs.-2 minigame in Mario Party 6. Its name comes from the eponymous term.

Introduction[edit]

The camera zooms in on the display on the top of the screen. It then scrolls through pictures of a Star, Mushroom, and Fire Flower and stops on one of them.

Gameplay[edit]

There is a large black-and-white grid at the top of the screen that forms a pixelated picture. The two teams have to race each other in copying the picture by ground-pounding different panels to turn them black or white and match the part of the picture. Players must also be careful not to accidentally ground-pound their partners, or they are temporarily squished flat and unable to move. The first team to copy two pictures wins. If five rounds pass without a team scoring two points, the minigame ends in a tie.

Ending[edit]

The display above prints out the complete sprite shown on the screen. The winners and losers then perform their corresponding animations.

Trivia[edit]

  • The images shown at the beginning are the Super Mushroom, Starman, and Fire Flower sprites from Super Mario Bros. 3.
  • Characters who earn a point perform their animations for winning a minigame while the other teammates perform their animations for losing a minigame, rather than their standard happy and sad animations respectively. Clock Stoppers from Mario Party 5 shares this distinction, albeit only for characters earning a point.
