==Trivia is long==
It is. Shouldn't the minigame puns be somewhere else?[[User:Mechayoshi]]

== Mario Party 8 ==
Some of this just seems like fan dreams. Pauline? I'm fixing this up for now, but uhh. Feel free to correct me. [[User:Evan|Evan]]

I have seen no evidence of a Mario Party 8 (yet) where is this info coming from? -- [[User:Sir Grodus|Sir Grodus]]

It has been confirmed now that there will be a Mario Party 8 in 2007. It's even at [http://www.IGN.com IGN]! <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''aper '''Jorge'''</font></span><small> ( [[User talk:Paper Jorge|Talk]]<tt>&middot;</tt>[[Special:Contributions/Paper Jorge|Contributions]]<tt>&middot;</tt></small>) '''Paper Jorge''' was here at... 19:34, 18 September 2006 (EDT)

By the way, Pauline now has a chance in the game after her apperance in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]''. I'm putting her up again. <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''aper '''Jorge'''</font></span><small> ( [[User talk:Paper Jorge|Need to tell me something?

I'm confused. Are names supposed to be linked once in the article and once in a pic? --[[User:Yoshi626|'''<span style="color:green">Yoshi</span>''']][[User talk:Yoshi626|'''<span style="color:black">626</span>''']][[Image:Egg.PNG|20px]] 23:21, 2 January 2007 (EST)

Names are only supposed to be linked once in the whole article. <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''[[User talk:Paper Jorge|aper]] '''[[User:Paper Jorge/sig|Jorge]]'''</font></span>

:But what about [http://www.mariowiki.com/Mario#Humble_Beginnings this?] ''[[Donkey Kong (arcade game)|Donkey Kong]]'' is linked twice. --[[User:Yoshi626|'''<span style="color:green">Yoshi</span>''']][[User talk:Yoshi626|'''<span style="color:black">626</span>''']][[Image:Egg.PNG|20px]] 18:27, 3 January 2007 (EST)
*Yea Game and Character. There different. {{User:WarioLoaf/sig}}
**Why would this apply to characters, but not games? --[[User:Yoshi626|'''<span style="color:green">Yoshi</span>''']][[User talk:Yoshi626|'''<span style="color:black">626</span>''']][[Image:Egg.PNG|20px]] 15:19, 4 January 2007 (EST)

== Characters ==

Are There going to be more than 14 characters?--[[User:Fg|Fg]] 15:08, 16 January 2007 (EST)

Probably not.--{{User:Aipom/sig}}--

== Blooper's Appearance ==

Does anybody know if blooper appearance will be the standard blooper pictured in the blooper article or gooper blooper?I Hope It's the standard blooper.--[[User:Fg|Fg]] 18:56, 16 January 2007 (EST)

Currently it's a normal Blooper. <span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''[[User talk:Paper Jorge|aper]] '''[[User:Paper Jorge/sig|Jorge]]'''</font></span>

==Yoshi Pic==
Could somebody please add a pic of [[Yoshi]], there is just about everyone except him. [[User:YoshiFan|YoshiFan]] 23:42, 3 February 2007 (EST) [[User:YoshiFan|A Yoshi-loving user]]

What about Blooper, Hammer Bro, Dry Bones, and Birdo. There aren't any pics for them either.--{{User:Aipom/sig}}--

:I always thought that [[:Image:YoshiSmiling8.PNG|this]] was the Yoshi art... --[[User:YellowYoshi398|YellowYoshi398]] 23:50, 3 February 2007 (EST)

Well, I did not know about it. [[User:YoshiFan|YoshiFan]] 23:53, 3 February 2007 (EST) [[User:YoshiFan|A confused fan of Yoshi.]]

:I can't say that I'm even sure right now... I'm pretty sure that image was referred to as the Yoshi art when it was in use, but I've also noticed that it's on that [[:Image:Nintenopoly.jpg|Nintendo Monopoly board]], which came out two years ago. Mario Party 8 still isn't even out yet, which gives me doubts... [[User:Paper Jorge|Paper Jorge]] uploaded it; maybe he knows. --[[User:YellowYoshi398|YellowYoshi398]] 23:59, 3 February 2007 (EST)

::Never mind. He must know; he's added it to the article. Thanks, Paper Jorge! --[[User:YellowYoshi398|YellowYoshi398]] 00:00, 4 February 2007 (EST)

:::The pic was a scan out of a Mario Party 8 section...[[Image:Mayor.gif]]<span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''[[User talk:Paper Jorge|aper]] '''[[User:Paper Jorge/sig|Jorge]]'''</font></span>

== Mc and Hat ==

Are the eyes on the hat Mc's or it's own?--{{User:Aipom/sig}}--

[[Big Top|the hat has its own life]]. [[MC Ballyhoo|MC has his own eyes if you look closely]]. [[Image:Mayor.gif]]<span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''[[User talk:Paper Jorge|aper]] '''[[User:Paper Jorge/sig|Jorge]]'''</font></span> {{{1|}}}

== Candy Names! ==

I heard from a website (once again, forgot. Sorry!) that the Vampire and Airplane candies were called Wingo and Whirlo candies, respectfully. Should I add those names or wait until it's confirmed? [[User: Maxlover2]]

:Wait, as you can't site a source. -- [[User: Son of Suns|Son of Suns]]

Sorry!

It's confired! It says so in Nintendo Power. [[Image:Mayor.gif]]<span style="font-family:verdana; color:#red;"><font size="5">'''[[User:Paper Jorge|P]]'''[[User talk:Paper Jorge|aper]] '''[[User:Paper Jorge/sig|Jorge]]'''</font></span> {{{1|}}}

confired? what's that? [[User:Maxlover2|Maxlover2]] 20:22, 19 February 2007 (EST) I'm confused. really. did you mean confirmed?

== Character Artwork ==

Does anybody know where they got the artwork for the characters in mario party 8, and why didn't you add birdo, dry bones,hammer bro., blooper?--[[User:Fg|Fg]] 16:22, 15 February 2007 (EST)

:My guess is because they're unlockable, and Nintendo doesn't release artwork of unlockable characters. {{User:Monty Mole/sig}}

But, it shows Birdo and Dry Bones in the character selection screen in a movie on YouTube. [[User:YoshiFan|YoshiFan]]

Regardless, where did those images come from? --[[User:Stumpers|Stumpers]]

I said '''Nintendo''' doesn't release artwork of unlockable characters. Youtube lets anything on. {{User:Monty Mole/sig}}

:Actually, your wrong Monty Mole. In ''Mario Kart DS'', they released artwork for every character, including unlockable ones. How about ''Super Smash Bros.'' and ''Melee'', ''StarFox Command'', ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'', and I'm sure theres more. However, I do not think that there is artwork for ''MP8''. Possibly though. And yes, I would like to know where you got the artwork. --[[User:Bentendo|Bentendo]] 17:11, 5 March 2007 (EST)

Wait a minute! i saw on wikipedia on the Mario Party 8 page they showed the character selection and it had [[Birdo]] and [[Dry Bones]] there and two ? marks for [[Blooper]] and [[Hammer Bro]]! (P.S They have deleted it for some reason. By the way my username is [Super Yoshi 10])

== Not Released Yet ==

This game isn't coming out for at least a month, most likely 2-3 months. Not today, March 5th. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 23:37, 5 March 2007 (EST)

This game is already released.{{User:Fg/sig}}
:No it isn't. {{User:Wayoshi/sig}} 19:32, 7 March 2007 (EST)

Well, there is a pirated version, but it's REALLY cheesy. {{User:Maxlover2/sig}}

Gotta link? {{User:3dejong/sig|PIRATES! AAAR!}}

no... Its for Wii, not computor! and I don't now any sites that sell it. {{User:Maxlover2/sig|sorry!}}

:We don't wanna play pirates.... <big> '''[[Thief Wario|Silent but deadly!]]''' '''Super'''''[[User:Super Luigi 821|Luigi]]'''''821''''' '''''[[Fracktail|You lost everything. Way to go genious.]]''' </big>

== Mario Party 8 Gets a Make-over ==

There is a new version of the boxart of Mario Party 8. Go to your nearest GameStop or EB Games to see it: It has only Mario and Luigi with the carnival background. No other characters. Dang, and you thought the old boxart was bad? <big> '''[[Thief Wario|Silent but deadly!]]''' '''Super'''''[[User:Super Luigi 821|Luigi]]'''''821''''' '''''[[Fracktail|You lost everything. Way to go genious.]]''' </big>

:Umm...anyone care to find the newboxart? <big> '''[[Thief Wario|Silent but deadly!]]''' '''Super'''''[[User:Super Luigi 821|Luigi]]'''''821''''' '''''[[Fracktail|You lost everything. Way to go genious.]]''' </big>

*Dang, I can't find the new box art anywhere...are you sure it's official? I bet it's just store made... [[User: Fixitup]]

::No idea if it's storemade but you can find it at EB Games/Gamespot. <big> '''[[Thief Wario|Silent but deadly!]]''' '''Super'''''[[User:Super Luigi 821|Luigi]]'''''821''''' '''''[[Fracktail|You lost everything. Way to go genious.]]''' </big>

== Blooper's Apperance ==

Now that the game is out, can we get a screenshot of blooper? [[User:Waluigi Fan|Waluigi Fan]] 13:10, 1 June 2007 (EDT)
:''I'' didn't see him until I bought the game! Why should you??--[[User:Pseudo-dino|Gray Yoshi?]]

==Sorry==
Samantha Kelly acted as Peach for this game. (And maybe Toad and Toadette but this uncomfirmed.)[[User:Princess Butterfly|Princess Butterfly]] 15:29, 17 November 2007 (EST)
:May I have some proof, please. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

== Team Names ==

Are they really neccesary? {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}
:The only way I'd include them is a table, I've tried to implement one, but there are just too many characters. So I don't really see a place for them. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 06:25, 21 November 2007 (EST)
::I mean, do they really have to be here at all? {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}
:::That's what I was saying: Either as a table, or not at all. - {{User:Cobold/sig}} 06:27, 21 November 2007 (EST)
::::Oh, OK. I think we should get more opinions before we remove the list. {{User:Pokemon DP/sig}}

==Proof==
At then end of Mario party 8 when the credits roll the person whom play as Peach it show Sam Kelly I didn't see Ms. Mills. [[User:Princess Butterfly|Princess Butterfly]] 15:19, 24 November 2007 (EST)

I agree 'bout the table the teams names would look better in a table. [[User:Princess Butterfly|Princess Butterfly]] 16:06, 25 November 2007 (EST)

== Needs Improvements ==

Maybe it's just me, but this whole article sounded more like an opinional review with terms like "cool new boards" and such; but I fixed the most noticable problems there. The problem is, the article needs to be overlooked and tweaked. I found little errors everywhere, such as the use of 'you' instead of 'player' and incomplete sentences. It isn't that bad, but for how long the game's been out, someone should overlook this and do minor edits here and there. I do not own the game and don't want to do anymore than I have to. [[User:Kelt|General Kelt]]

:I actually gotta agree. {{User:MegaMario9910/sig}} I don't have the game either. And I don't wanna do it, since I just got into a "Flame War" someplace, so I'm kinda feeling bad...

::Hope you feel better bud. Remember, it's just on online fight with someone sitting at their computer and shouldn't be capable of hurting you in any way, even if it does cause emotional pain. [[User:Kelt|General Kelt]]

:::Good point. {{User:MegaMario9910/sig}} Thanks.

== Fact or Opinion? ==

In this sentence: "The game is more notable than its prequels for its strong use of the Wii Remote in minigames.", is that a fact or an opinion? {{User:MegaMario9910/sig}}

That seems like more of a fact because it explains why it would be more notable. {{User:Jaffffey/sig}}

== Japanese Version ==

Hey guys I have the Japanese version of this game! Anything about differences between versions U and J ask me! [[User talk: MarioParty8Japan]][[User:MarioParty8Japan|MarioParty8Japan]] 06:22, 24 November 2008 (EST)



== Candy Names ==

Hello. I just wanted to ask if Thrice is a real word. For example "Thrice Candy" Is in the game. Answers Please! [[User:Mariofan459]] 11:00, 26 August 2009 (EDT)
:[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/thrice Yes], though it's dated. {{User:Time Q/sig}} 11:20, 26 August 2009 (EDT)

==Critical Reception Section?==
Is that really necessary?

{{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

I don't think many other articles on here have one, so I don't think it is. --[[User:Turkishcoffee|Turkishcoffee]] 01:47, 5 April 2010 (EDT)

:I do think so. Such sections fit perfectly into an encyclopedia. {{User:Time Q/sig}} 06:20, 5 April 2010 (EDT)
::It's always good to have "real world" information about a game, including development and reception. More articles would need that. At least four of the featured game articles have a reception section. But the bad about this article's section is that I don't see any citations. --[[User:Grandy02|Grandy02]] 07:12, 5 April 2010 (EDT)
:::Both of those are really good points. --[[User:Turkishcoffee|Turkishcoffee]] 08:12, 5 April 2010 (EDT)

==Puns==
Why do we have a puns section? I thought it was the '''minigame''' section at first
>:( I think its completly irrelevant. To put it in a polite way, I don't think many people care about puns.
