Template:Justreleased Template:Infobox Mario Party DS will be the eleventh installment in the Mario Party series (thirteenth in Japan) and will be released for North America on November 19, 2007. It includes more than seventy new minigames and five new game boards. It's functions include touch control, microphone control and dual-screen challenges. It is possible for up to four players to play in wireless mode.

Story

The game begins with an average day in the Mushroom Kingdom. This is soon changed when Kamek drops off some fliers inviting Mario and the gang to a get-together at Bowser's Castle to have dinner. However, once there Bowser and Bowser Jr. entrap everyone behind bars and shrink them to the size of chess pieces; they seek five powerful crystals and shrink down the crew so they can’t stop them. They are then dropped off by sack in the middle of a neighborhood which leads them to the first board, Wiggler's Garden. Each of the tiny heroes wants to be the one and only Superstar that brings down King Bowser; from there on out it's everyone for themselves.
