==Overview==
==Gameplay==
Both players compete to spin and then throw a [[Bowser]] doll, presumably inspired from how [[Mario]] defeats Bowser in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. The distance depends not only the number of times the Bowser doll is spun, but also on the angle. If a player is not spinning their Bowser doll when time is up, they drop it and get a "MISS." The player whose Bowser doll is thrown the farthest wins, but if both players get the same distance or do not throw their doll at all, it is a tie.
Both players have 10 seconds to spin their Bowser around repeatedly. Their Bowser is thrown when the 10 seconds is up. The angle and spin of the Bowser affect how far the Bowser is thrown. Whoever throws their Bowser the furthest distance wins the minigame.

Bowser Toss is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 3.

Overview[edit]

Both players compete to spin and then throw a Bowser doll, presumably inspired from how Mario defeats Bowser in Super Mario 64. The distance depends not only the number of times the Bowser doll is spun, but also on the angle. If a player is not spinning their Bowser doll when time is up, they drop it and get a "MISS." The player whose Bowser doll is thrown the farthest wins, but if both players get the same distance or do not throw their doll at all, it is a tie.

Controls[edit]

  • Control Stick – Adjust angle
  • A Button (Repeatedly) – Spin Bowser
