Mario Party 4 is the fourth game in the Mario Party series, and the first for the Nintendo GameCube. It follows the original style of board-game-esque gameplay, as well as the use of many items and mini-games. The game's goal, as with most of the others, is to collect stars. It is also the first Mario Party game to allow players to team up.

Playable Characters

Note: This is the last Mario Party game in which Donkey Kong is playable.

Plot

Toad, Koopa Troopa, Goomba, Boo and Shy Guy all found the odd, mystical Party Cube.

Eventually, Bowser enters to ruin things with his own board, hosted by Koopa Kid (known in PAL regions as Mini Bowser).
