'''Settle It in Court''' is a Duel [[minigame]] (and a single-player minigame in [[Test for the Best]]) in ''[[Mario Party 8]]''. Its name is a pun on the phrase "Let's settle it in court", which traditionally refers to a judicial court rather than a basketball one. This minigame is similar in concept to that of [[Three Throw]] from ''[[Mario Party 4]]''.

==Gameplay==
The Shy Guy throws basketballs from the side, and there is a meter at the top of the screen, with a basketball going from right to left across it, one at a time. When the ball icon reaches the yellow marker at the center, the player must swing {{button|wii|Wiimote}} forward to make the shot. Occasionally, a Goomba icon slides across. When it reaches the marker, the player must press the {{button|wii|A}} or {{button|wii|B}} button, and the Goomba gives the player an assist. The speed the icon goes across varies. Whoever has more baskets after 30 seconds is declared the winner. If both players' scores are the same or nobody gets a point, the minigame ends in a tie.

Overview[edit]

In the introduction, the player is on a basketball court, among a Shy Guy and many Goombas. The Shy Guy throws the player a basketball, and they shoot it in the basketball court. The game begins after that.

The Shy Guy throws basketballs from the side, and there is a meter at the top of the screen, with a basketball going from right to left across it, one at a time. When the ball icon reaches the yellow marker at the center, the player must swing Wii Remote forward to make the shot. Occasionally, a Goomba icon slides across. When it reaches the marker, the player must press the A Button or B Button button, and the Goomba gives the player an assist. The speed the icon goes across varies. Whoever has more baskets after 30 seconds is declared the winner. If both players' scores are the same or nobody gets a point, the minigame ends in a tie.

In the ending, the winning player does their victory animation, as well as the Shy Guy and the Goombas, which are jumping. If a tie occurs, both players do their losing animations.
