Weird Wheels

Template:Minigame-infobox Weird Wheels is a 1-vs.-Rivals minigame featured in Mario Party 9.

Introduction

The vehicles approach the starting line, and the camera zooms out slightly.

Gameplay

Players must move vehicles whose wheels are not round: square wheels for the solo player's vehicle, and triangular wheels for the rivals' vehicle. The single player moves their vehicle by pressing the buttons in the exact order shown onscreen. The rivals move their vehicle by pressing or one by one. If the solo player presses a wrong button, they must start another combination. If a player from the team presses a wrong button, they must simply try again. A total of five combinations must be done to reach the goal. The first side to reach the goal wins.
