==Overview==
The player has to match three images by hitting a [[! Block]]. If not all images are the same, the player will not receive any [[Coin]]s and will lose the minigame. Unlike in other 1-Player minigames, when this minigame is lost, the player will not lose the usual five Coins.
The player uses a [[! Block]] to try and match three symbols. The number of Coins associated with each symbol include 20 for the [[Mario Cap|Hat]], 10 for the [[Treasure chest|Treasure Chest]], 8 for the [[Fire Flower]], 6 for the [[Mushroom]], 5 for the [[coin bag|Coin Bag]], 3 for the [[Koopa Shell]], and 1 for the Coin symbol. The Coins are not received automatically, so collecting them is required. Slot Machine uses a unique victory theme; however, if the result is the Hat, the fanfare from earning a new record or meeting a "perfect" condition plays. The player loses if they either do not line three matching symbols or if the object is not met within five minutes. Losing does not take away any Coins from the player.

Slot Machine is a 1-Player minigame in Mario Party.

Overview[edit]

The player uses a ! Block to try and match three symbols. The number of Coins associated with each symbol include 20 for the Hat, 10 for the Treasure Chest, 8 for the Fire Flower, 6 for the Mushroom, 5 for the Coin Bag, 3 for the Koopa Shell, and 1 for the Coin symbol. The Coins are not received automatically, so collecting them is required. Slot Machine uses a unique victory theme; however, if the result is the Hat, the fanfare from earning a new record or meeting a "perfect" condition plays. The player loses if they either do not line three matching symbols or if the object is not met within five minutes. Losing does not take away any Coins from the player.
