Talk:Mario Party 9

Bowser Jr. Playable Status

I don't think it's confirmed he is playable. In the pipe game he could have been an NPC enemy. And in the propeller game, he's in the Koopa Clown Car unlike all the others, which to me implies he's some sort of boss. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 14:43, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

Yeah that's what I think too. He's probably going to maintain some nsmb like role where he interrupts the minigames. I mean he seems to either be running away or performing a boss fight. I think we should list him in a Boss/Playable? Characters sections. Propeller Toad

Now that I look at this image, I have to agree that Junior is not playable. (Or at least not officially announced.) DKPetey99^TCE 19:43, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

???

Why was this not mentioned at the press conference? I'd heard nothing of it until logging on here a while ago. Mario4Ever (talk)

I'm pretty sure it was. YL

Characters

Wait a moment,,, if Dry Bones and Toad are playable characters,so that means Birdo and Toadette are playable too!. Birdobeauties ^^

No... but they prolly will be Goomba's Shoe15 (talk)

I guess we have to wait! ^,^ Birdobeauties

Actually you are wrong their. Just because Toad happens to be playable (this goes for Dry Bones too) doesn't mean that Toadette and Birdo are characters. They have not been seen in any photos or videos. However, you are most likley correct due to the fact that they have been in prevoius Mario games.-User:FireFlower

One things for sure, Blooper's not coming back. -_- DK Fan

Thats weird cause theres a Blooper in one of the Screenshots Goomba's Shoe15 (talk)

I'm afraid Dry Bones is not playable, because you can clearly see there are 5 characters at the same time! (Peach, Mario, Yoshi, Wario and Dry Bones. Birdobeauties

Possibly a supporting character in minigames, like Penguins. DKPetey99^TCE 16:54, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

Or he could be playable in a story mini game where mario is the boss Goomba's Shoe15 (talk)

Hmm I don't think so, you can see more than one DryBones on the background Birdobeauties

Yes, there is broken Dry Bones on the side. DKPetey99^TCE 18:47, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

Maybe they are trying to head back to the more-than-four-players concept from Mario Party 7. DK Fan

Until there is an official source and more info is given, Dry Bones is not a playable character. DKPetey99^TCE 19:39, 7 June 2011 (EDT)

:O

noooo!! i dont think boo is in it anymore!! he was my favorite character!! - It's a me, Mario! -

I liked Boo too. :(. But not everything has been announced so there is a possibility. New Super Mario

Me three. Superfiremario (talk) (contribs) File:Mario.jpg

Me 4!!!! yoshiyoshiyoshi (talk)

All four of you, read the bloomin' template at the top of the stage. Mario JC

Should I say me 5 or me 6? DK Fan

New Super Mario Bros. Wii but party style

When I saw the trailer there were so many things New Super Mario Bros. Wii styled like at one part Luigi threw a shell at Goombas and in the Background there was a fortress on a hill like the one in the 1st world of NSMBW. Is this going to me like a NSMBW party game just with a different name?YoshiGo99

No, it's just the style of the board. The game also has other elements like from Super Mario Galaxy 2. --Mechawave 15:26, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

5 player Minigame?

I saw a 5 player minigame.Maybe it has WiiU exclusive content?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yoshiyoshiyoshi (talk).

Either that, or Dry Bones is not a playable character anymore. -_- DK Fan

No I don't think there are 5 player mini-games - one of the players must be an enemy. Mario JC

In that minigame with the Dry bones the one standing didn't have glowing pupils so maybe it is an enemy of some sort.YoshiGo99

Can you people seriously look at the image and apply common sense? This game is not related to the Wii U in any way, nor has 5 player minigames. Dry Bones is not returning as a character this time around, and those Dry Bones are there to make sure the players avoiding the one in the copter also avoid the Dry Bones. --Mechawave 15:25, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

Dry Bones isn't playable probably, as there is 2 Dry Bones' if your talking about this picture: File:MP9 10.png -- Superfiremario 21:08, 17 June 2011 (EDT)

Group art

Merged from this, this, this, this, and unknown artwork of Yoshi. SWFlash

And the solo Mario artwork is Mario taken from that picture by himself. DKPetey99^TCE 10:52, 7 July 2011 (EDT)

I know the release date.

Today, I went into gamestop, reserved mario party 9, and one of the staff said the game will come out January 3rd, 2012
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mario240 (talk).

This does not mean it's official. GameStop is notorious for giving out incorrect release dates. Also, there's no actual Internet source so it's automatically invalid. GameStop also does not say the release date itself on their website. --Mechawave 16:50, 14 June 2011 (EDT)

2 VS. 2 mini-games.

Does anyone think they will be returning? User:DK Fan

I don't see why not... they've been in every previous Mario Party. Yoshiwaker

Possible Content for Description

Shouldn't we add possible minigame descriptions or possible items? Kongo519 (talk)

If you are completely sure with what it is about and it is referenced, yes. YL

Not with out a source Goomba's Shoe15 (talk)

Infer

Not much is known about the story, but from what I can infer the gang will battle Bowser Jr. throughout the game.----KoopaMan

Mario Party tower

In the screenshot with the Bullet Bill mini-game, does anyone notice that the tower the players are on looks like the ones used in Mario Party? Tails777 Talk to me!

I just relized somthing

Hudson Software developed the first Mario Party games, but NOT this one. --Mario240 15:17, 5 July 2011 (EDT)Mario240
Yeah. Mariomario64! 15:32, 5 July 2011 (EDT)

Um, how do we know that this game is made by Nd Cube? The referenced page merely states that Nd Cube made Wii Party, it didn't even mention Mario Party 9. Isn't this just speculation? YL

Urchin?

I see an Urchin like thing in the Giant Blooper Image. Is it really an Urchin or not?YoshiGo99 20:15, 12 July 2011 (EDT)

Nd Cube?

The referenced article for Nd Cube only states that they made Wii Party. It didn't even mention Mario Party 9, and thus this is only purely speculation. YL
