Template:Series-infobox The Mario Party series is a virtual board game created by Hudson Soft (Mario Party to Mario Party DS) and by Nd Cube (since Mario Party 9). It features a cast of prominent Mario series characters, some of which have been Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Princess Daisy, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, Toad, Wario, Waluigi, and many more with each game featuring variations on the cast and storyline. The series can be played with four players, but computer controlled players may be selected as well. From Mario Party to Mario Party DS, and also in amiibo Party mode in Mario Party 10, players move his or her character across the selected stage by hitting dice blocks to gather a Star. Usually, the player must then pay a fee of twenty coins to the host, a non-playable character. After each player has completed his or her turn, a minigame then begins, in which the player may be awarded coins, based on their performance. In Mario Party 9 and in Mario Party mode Mario Party 10, the objective is to get the most Mini Stars in the selected board to become the superstar. In Mario Party: Island Tour, with the exception of two boards in the game, players have to get to the end of the board before the other players. However, some boards in Island Tour use cards to advance forward, but most of them use dice blocks.

At the end of the game, Stars and Bonus Stars will be tallied. The person with the most stars at the end of the game becomes the winner, or in this case, the Superstar. If Stars are tied between players, other statistics will be applied. These include the amount of coins collected, minigame victories, and so on.

The Mario Party series amasses 13 games, across the Nintendo 64, Nintendo GameCube, Wii, and Wii U consoles, as well as the Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, and Nintendo 3DS. The series even sports a card game that works with the e-Reader peripheral and has ported previous installments into Japan-only arcade games. The cast of characters, character cameos, and minigames are numerous. Thus far, the series has been very commercially successful, and looks to continue its success.

Title, Original Release and System Synopsis
Mario Party

File:MP1 Cover.png

In late 1998 and early 1999, Nintendo released the first Mario Party game — Mario Party, for the Nintendo 64, developed by Hudson Soft. The game is a whole new aspect on multi-player capabilities in the Mario series; most games up until now mainly featured a two-player versus mode, with the exceptions of a few sports spin-offs. The game mechanics work nearly identical to that of a board game: players would rove around the board, moving from space to space, and hitting a Dice Block in order to move said spaces. The players can earn coins by playing and winning minigames; with a certain amount of coins, the players could buy stars. Despite the fact that this is a party game, it also has a single-player mode, in which the player can play against CPUs. There are six playable characters in the game: Mario, Luigi, Peach, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, and Wario with Toad being the host of the game. Each character has one board modeled after them, in addition to two other boards in the game — one dedicated to the game's antagonist, Bowser, and the other unlockable after collecting 100 stars.

Mario Party 2

File:MP2BOX.PNG

The Mario Party series continued in late 1999 and early 2000 when Nintendo released Mario Party 2 on Nintendo 64, the sequel to the original Mario Party. The game re-uses most of the mechanics of the original: players go around a board, hitting dice blocks, to reach the star space and collect it. The story, however, is different; one day, the characters decide to create their own world, which is named Mario Land. However, they soon begin to argue over a good name for the world, and, while this is going on, Bowser invades the new world, taking an area for himself. Now the characters must go through the world, to stop Bowser and take back their world.

Mario Party 3

File:MP3BOX.PNG

The Mario Party series continued in late 2000 and spring of 2001 when Nintendo released Mario Party 3 on Nintendo 64, the second sequel to the original Mario Party, and the final installment on the Nintendo 64. The game re-uses most of the mechanics of it's sequel: players go around a board, hitting dice blocks, to reach the star space and collect it, while using items to help along the way. The story, however, is different; every 1000 years, the Millennium star becomes reborn. This time, it crashes into the Mushroom Kingdom which alerts its residents. A nearby Lakitu transports the kingdom into a toybox and now Mario and company have to fight to get back out and to save the star from Bowser. This is the first Mario Party game to have Daisy and Waluigi as playable characters, which would also continue in future installments with the exception of Mario Party Advance.

Mario Party 4

File:Mpp4.JPG

Nintendo's first Mario Party game for the GameCube was Mario Party 4 released in 2002. The game once again re-uses the gaming mechanics of the previous installments. Toad, Koopa Troopa, Goomba, Boo, and Shy Guy discover the Party Cube, and they invite the characters to celebrate the birthday of a character. However, the five have decided that the characters should win the presents, and, pretty soon, Bowser arrives to create confusion. It is the last Mario Party game until Mario Party 10 to have Donkey Kong as a playable character.

Mario Party 5

File:MP5BOX.PNG

The Mario Party franchise continued in 2003 with the release of Mario Party 5. The game once again follows the same old "go around the board to collect stars" mechanics, with few changes, the most notable being the new Capsule system for items. The story involves the Star Guards wanting to invite the biggest dreamers to the Dream Depot, and they choose Mario and friends. However, Bowser and Koopa Kid want to take over the dreams and ruin them, and it's up to Mario and the gang to stop him.

Mario Party 6

Mario Party once again returned in 2004 when Mario Party 6 was released. Unlike the past games, one thing was changed in the gaming mechanics: the inclusion of a microphone, which allows the player to speak and play in Mic minigames. Another thing that was changed was that every three turns, the time of day will change from day to night, and vice versa. The two game hosts, Brighton and Twila, were friends until Brighton asked who was more impressive. This sparked the feud between the two, which Mario and friends hope to stop by collecting stars and completing the Miracle Book.

Mario Party Advance

MariopartyGBA.jpg

The first Mario Party release on a handheld console was Mario Party Advance in 2005, released on the Game Boy Advance. The game has four modes: Shroom City, Play Land, Party Land, and Challenge Land. Shroom City involves the same gaming mechanics as past Mario Party games; however, players travel around inside a car, doing odd jobs for the inhabitants of the city to obtain mini-games and Gaddgets. Play Land allows the player to play the mini-games and Gaddgets they've earned. Party Land lets the player compete to earn coins, and Challenge Land is a multi-player mode where players can compete.

Mario Party 7

File:MP7BOX.PNG

Mario Party still returned when Nintendo released Mario Party 7 in November 2005, and the fourth and final installment on the Nintendo GameCube. The game once again incorporates all the mechanics from previous releases, including the microphone and mic-exclusive minigames. However, one feature is included, which allows up to eight players to party, with two players sharing one controller. The game's story involves the gang going on a cruise around the world. However, since Bowser isn't invited, he has decided to get his revenge, by trying to make the cruise horrible for the gang.

Mario Party 8

File:MP8Box.jpg

Mario Party 8, is Nintendo's eighth installment in the main Mario Party series, and the first installment for the Wii, released in 2007. This game introduces three new playable characters: Miis (only playable in the Extras Zone), Blooper, and Hammer Bro, and a new host, MC Ballyhoo. This game has an assortment of new mini-games and new game boards. There are five modes in the Star Carnival: The Party Tent, where players can have a classic game of Mario Party, the Minigame Tent, where players can play mini-games, the Extras Zone, where players can play extra mini-games, the Fun Bazaar, where players can buy mini-games, items, and various other things, and the Star Battle Arena, which acts as the game's story mode. Mario and friends have been invited to the Star Carnival to party, and the winner of their game gets a year's supply of candy. However, just as one of the gang is crowned the Superstar, Bowser steals the Star Rod they were to receive, and now Mario and friends must defeat Bowser and get it back.

Mario Party DS

For the first time, Hudson developed a Mario Party game for the Nintendo DS. Mario Party DS came out a week after Super Mario Galaxy and in the same year as its indirect follow-up, Mario Party 8. In this game, five meteorites fall from the sky. The next day, Mario and the gang are discussing this when Kamek drops invitations for the Mario gang; Bowser has invited them to his castle for a banquet. However, once Mario and the gang arrive, they are captured, shrunk to a microscopic size, and thrown out of the castle. Now, they have to get back to Bowser's Castle to be restored to their normal height, helping people along the way. This game features many mini-games and it has a unique storyline compared to the other games in the series. All of the playable characters that appear appeared in Mario Party 8. About a year and a half later, Nintendo released its sequel which is only available in Japan.

Mario Party 9

MP9Boxart.jpg

Mario Party 9 is Nintendo's ninth main installment in the Mario Party series and the second and final installment on the Wii, released in 2012. The game uses a similar gameplay mechanic as Mario Party Advance in that the players move around in a vehicle. Players take turns as the captain, rolling to dice to move the vehicle. Instead of attempting to collect Coins to buy stars, the players attempt to earn the most amount of Mini Stars on each board by collecting them from the board, winning minigames, and beating bosses. They must also avoid Mini Ztars, which decrease the player's current total of Mini Stars. The game also has two boss battles integrated into each board; the players try to take down a boss together, while also trying their best to increase their individual scores. The game's story first involves Mario and friends looking at the night sky when they suddenly see Mini Stars being sucked into a vortex; the ones behind this are Bowser and Bowser Jr.. Mario and friends then head off to save the Mini Stars by defeating Bowser. The game is developed by Nd Cube, and is the first in the series to not be developed by Hudson.

Mario Party: Island Tour is the twelfth installment in the main Mario Party series and is released for the Nintendo 3DS. This is the second Mario Party installment to be developed by Nd Cube. The game returns to the traditional individual player movement of the Mario Party franchise, but each board has its own unique style of gameplay.

Mario Party 10

File:WiiU MarioParty10 pkg.jpg

Mario Party 10 is the first Mario Party game for the Wii U, and the tenth game in the main Mario Party series released in 2015. The game reuses the vehicle mechanic, and players once again have the goal of collecting Mini Stars. However, in addition to the traditional Party Mode, a new mode called Bowser Party has also been confirmed. In this mode, a player using the GamePad plays as Bowser, while the other players play as the heroes. Bowser tries to make the heroes lose all there hearts. Another new mode, known as amiibo Party, also appears and is compatible with the Super Mario line of amiibo figures. In this mode, the classic style of collecting Stars with coins is once again used. It is the first Mario Party game since Mario Party 4 to have Donkey Kong as a playable character.

Playable characters are introduced in the first Mario Party. During the first two Mario Party games, Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Wario, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong are the only playable characters.

There are some exceptions in games like Mario Party Advance and Mario Party DS which do not introduce new characters. Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and Yoshi are the only characters to appear in all of the installments; Toad also appeared in all of the installments but was not a playable character until Mario Party 5. Wario appeared in all of the installments except for Mario Party Advance and Daisy and Waluigi appeared in all of the installments except for the first two Mario Party games and Mario Party Advance.
