Pop Star is a 1-vs.-3 minigame in Mario Party 6. Its name comes from a term that refers to a famous person associated with pop music.

Introduction[edit]

The introduction shows the team and the solo player each inflating their balloon slightly.

Gameplay[edit]

Players attempt to inflate their balloons to the point where they pop. The group players work together to pop their balloon by ground-pounding their pumps, while the solo player tries to pop their own balloon by repeatedly hammering their pump. The group players can pump more air in their balloon if they ground-pound from the highest point of their jump. The side that pops its balloon first wins. If both sides pop their balloons simultaneously or if five minutes pass, the minigame ends in a tie.

Controls[edit]
