Mario Party: The Top 100:

Pier Pressure is a Free-for-All minigame featured in Mario Party 9 and Mario Party: The Top 100. The name is a pun on the phrase "peer pressure," where one conforms to how their friends think or behave.

Introduction

An underwater shot shows Cheep Cheeps and Urchins swimming around. The camera then goes above water and shows the pier and the players.

Gameplay

Before the game starts, a "spinning" arrow chooses who goes first. The selected player takes a turn, and the players to their right follow in order.

Players try to pick fishing lines that they think have Cheep Cheeps on them. A player who picks a fishing rod with an Urchin is knocked into the water and is eliminated. The game is purely luck-based; there is no way of telling whether a rod has a Cheep Cheep or an Urchin hooked to it, even if the line moves in a different way from another. The player who survives the minigame wins.
