Gameplay
Single player
After the player bets three coins, Luigi serves a group of eight cards upside down, and the player must match them up with their twins. At the start, Luigi's cards feature symbols such as a Cloud, a Mushroom, a Fire Flower, and a Super Star. By completing a challenge successfully, the player gains six times the remaining bet coins in Super Mario 64 DS or nine coins in New Super Mario Bros. and receives a Star as a point. As the player earns Stars, the minigame gradually increases in difficulty by adding more cards and symbols, including Mario and Luigi, but also a Goomba, Bowser, a Boo, and Yoshi in the New Super Mario Bros. version of the minigame. For every five Stars earned, additional cards are introduced, and in New Super Mario Bros., some of the cards flip over for a few seconds when Luigi deals them before they flip again. If the player taps two different cards, a coin is given to Luigi from the bet number, causing the player to lose a Star if Luigi takes all these coins. If the player loses all of the money to bet, the minigame ends.
The New Super Mario Bros. version of this minigame incorporates the 16- and 20-card variants from Memory Master with some differences. When Luigi serves 16 cards, the player gets eight flipped cards compared to six cards from Memory Master. When he serves 20 cards, the player gets 12 flipped cards compared to eight cards.
The progression for both games is detailed in the tables below.
