Snipe for the Picking is a Battle minigame in Mario Party 8.
Overview[edit]
In the introduction, the first player enters a small room filled with gears that a Ukiki is cranking. The player then shoots an apple-shaped target, after which the screen splits into four sections and the game starts.
In this game, 15 apple-shaped targets slide in front of the players, who need to shoot target zones attached to them that are worth 10, 30, or 100 points. Each target stays on the screen for one whole second, so the players need to shoot the targets quickly. The targets do not have the point zones in the same locations. Whoever has the most points after all the targets wins.
In the ending, losers are carried away by Ukikis behind winners, who do their victory poses.
