[[Shy Guy Says]] is a 4-player mini-game in ''[[Mario Party]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 2]]''. Players have to raise the same color flag as the [[Shy Guy]]. If one of the players raise the wrong color flag or didn't raise up any flag, the Shy Guy kicks the player out of the mini-game. Sometimes, the Shy Guy will try to trick one of the players by raising two color flags at once, last player standing wins. There is also a very similar mini-game in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' called [[Flagging Rights]].

'''Shy Guy Says''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party]]'', ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''. It is also the third and final section of the Showdown minigame [[Mario's Three-peat]] in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''. Shy Guy Says is a parody of the game {{wp|Simon Says}}.


==Game Rules and Advice in ''Mario Party 2==
==Overview==
*''The Shy Guy will raise a flag, so just raise the same color flag. It's simple, right? The game continues until only one remains.
[[File:SMPJ Mario Threepeat Shy Guy Says.png|thumb|left|Shy Guy Says, as a part of [[Mario's Three-peat]], in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'']]
*''The sly Shy Guy will try to fake you out. Don't let him fool you. If you let him down, he'll shoot you down.
In ''Mario Party'', ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', and ''Mario Party Superstars'', a [[Shy Guy]] appears on a boat, and the players are in barrels connected by rope to the boat; in ''Mario Party 2'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', a Shy Guy stands on a rainbow and a platform, respectively, with a bow and a quiver, with the players being attached to balloons. The Shy Guy in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' is yellow because the red Shy Guy is playable.
 
Shy Guy raises either a white or a red flag, and players have to copy him. Each of the Shy Guy's flags shows the button used to raise that flag: {{button|n64|A}} in ''Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party 2'' or {{button|3ds|r}}/{{button|switch|r}} in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', ''Mario Party Superstars'', and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' for white; and {{button|n64|B}} in ''Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party 2'' or {{button|3ds|l}}/{{button|switch|L}} in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', ''Mario Party Superstars'', and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' for red. If a player either raises the incorrect flag or none, the Shy Guy eliminates them from the minigame by cutting their rope with a sword in ''Mario Party'', ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', and ''Mario Party Superstars'', or by popping their balloon by using a bow in ''Mario Party 2'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree''. The Shy Guy has a tactic in ''Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party 2'' of sometimes raising two flags at once before putting one of them away early, while in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', the Shy Guy sometimes takes out a flag and immediately puts it away. When raising two flags at once, the Shy Guy can also raise a flag after lowering it and lower the other one. Both of these techniques reappear in ''Mario Party Superstars'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree''. The last remaining player wins the minigame.
 
A bypassing [[Lakitu]] appears in ''Mario Party 2'' at one point, and if a player does not raise a flag before it goes offscreen, the Shy Guy pops their balloon. The same timer is not in the ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' version, preventing fakeouts from being relayed.
 
If at least two players remain long enough in the ''Mario Party Superstars'' version, a 30-second timer displays eventually. Once the timer reaches zero, all players still standing are declared winners, though in all games, a draw occurs when there are no players still standing whatsoever.
 
Shy Guy Says can be purchased from the [[Mini-Game House]] in ''Mario Party'' for 250 [[coin]]s when it becomes available, or from [[Woody]] in ''Mario Party 2'' for 50 coins.

Shy Guy Says is a 4-Player minigame in Mario Party, Mario Party 2, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party Superstars. It is also the third and final section of the Showdown minigame Mario's Three-peat in Super Mario Party Jamboree. Shy Guy Says is a parody of the game Simon Says.

Overview[edit]

Mario's Three-peat
Shy Guy Says, as a part of Mario's Three-peat, in Super Mario Party Jamboree

In Mario Party, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party Superstars, a Shy Guy appears on a boat, and the players are in barrels connected by rope to the boat; in Mario Party 2 and Super Mario Party Jamboree, a Shy Guy stands on a rainbow and a platform, respectively, with a bow and a quiver, with the players being attached to balloons. The Shy Guy in Super Mario Party Jamboree is yellow because the red Shy Guy is playable.

Shy Guy raises either a white or a red flag, and players have to copy him. Each of the Shy Guy's flags shows the button used to raise that flag: A Button in Mario Party and Mario Party 2 or R Button/R Button in Mario Party: The Top 100, Mario Party Superstars, and Super Mario Party Jamboree for white; and B Button in Mario Party and Mario Party 2 or L Button/L Button in Mario Party: The Top 100, Mario Party Superstars, and Super Mario Party Jamboree for red. If a player either raises the incorrect flag or none, the Shy Guy eliminates them from the minigame by cutting their rope with a sword in Mario Party, Mario Party: The Top 100, and Mario Party Superstars, or by popping their balloon by using a bow in Mario Party 2 and Super Mario Party Jamboree. The Shy Guy has a tactic in Mario Party and Mario Party 2 of sometimes raising two flags at once before putting one of them away early, while in Mario Party: The Top 100, the Shy Guy sometimes takes out a flag and immediately puts it away. When raising two flags at once, the Shy Guy can also raise a flag after lowering it and lower the other one. Both of these techniques reappear in Mario Party Superstars and Super Mario Party Jamboree. The last remaining player wins the minigame.

A bypassing Lakitu appears in Mario Party 2 at one point, and if a player does not raise a flag before it goes offscreen, the Shy Guy pops their balloon. The same timer is not in the Super Mario Party Jamboree version, preventing fakeouts from being relayed.

If at least two players remain long enough in the Mario Party Superstars version, a 30-second timer displays eventually. Once the timer reaches zero, all players still standing are declared winners, though in all games, a draw occurs when there are no players still standing whatsoever.

Shy Guy Says can be purchased from the Mini-Game House in Mario Party for 250 coins when it becomes available, or from Woody in Mario Party 2 for 50 coins.
