'''Snowball Summit''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''.
'''Snowball Summit''' is a 4-player [[minigame]] that is found during the events of the [[Nintendo 64]] game ''[[Mario Party 3]]''. It is also included in ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]''.  


==Overview==
==Gameplay==
[[File:Snowball Summit - Mario Party Superstars.png|thumb|left|Gameplay from ''Mario Party Superstars'', showing Wario lose Snowball Summit]]
In this game, players have to create snowballs and try to knock each other off of a frozen summit using snowballs.
Players create [[snowball]]s and roll them around, trying to knock their opponents off of the arena and eliminate them. The larger a snowball is from being rolled around, the farther it can push back an opponent. Snowballs can also be rolled in the direction of opponents. If two snowballs crash into each other, they break. If at least two players remain if time runs out, it is a draw, but in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'' and ''Mario Party Superstars'', each remaining player wins.

The player can build up a snowball, yet they are vulnerable to other player's snowballs, as it takes time to make one. Once done, the player is able to move the snowball around, and the more time it spends rolling, the greater the size of the snowball. Any contact sends players flying depending on the size of the snowball. Players can also fire a snowball to reach enemies far away without having to cross the entire battlefield. When two snowballs meet, though, they both cancel each other out, no matter if it is fired or being built up. In ''Mario Party 3'', if 2 or more players are still on the summit when the time runs out, the minigame is considered a draw.
In volume 28 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Wario]] participate in Snowball Summit. Mario rolls a snowball at Yoshi as the latter makes the snowman and pushes him off the cliff. [[Bowser]] stomps on a cloud to produce a snowstorm, causing every character to fall off except Mario. The big snowball produced by Bowser during the ensuing battle with Mario is revealed to be pumped by two Goombas, but Yoshi comes back and uses a spear to destroy the snowball.
 
Players left standing on the summit when time expires win.

Snowball Summit also appears in volume 28 of ''[[Super Mario-Kun]]''. [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Wario]] are involved in this minigame. Yoshi makes a snowman, but Mario rolls a snowball and pushes him off the mountain just as in the game. Bowser, however, interrupts them by summoning a snowstorm by stomping on a cloud. Bowser then knocks all characters off except for Mario, who latches on the cliff using his nose. Bowser calls for help, but his two [[Goomba]] minions are sleeping. A fight between Mario and Bowser ensues, and Bowser begins by creating a huge snowball. This is a trick, however, as the two Goombas are shown pumping the snowball, revealing that the snowball is just an inflated decoy. Yoshi explodes it by poking it with a spear. Mario then pokes from the snow, being okay.
