Winner or Dinner

Template:Minigame-infobox Winner or Dinner is a 2-vs.-2 minigame in Mario Party 8 and Mario Party Superstars. It is the only 2-vs.-2 minigame in Mario Party 8 that focuses on earning coins.

Introduction

A plain desert is revealed in the first shot. A twister then whirls through, and when it passes, an oasis is revealed. This is where the minigame takes place.

Gameplay

The objective of the game is to collect coins that pop out of the Warp Pipe in the oasis center. Spiny Eggs also pop out, and running into one will leave the player paralyzed for a moment. Around the edge of the oasis are four Piranha Plants, which are near most landing points of coins. If the player gets too close, the Piranha Plant will chomp them and throw them out of the oasis. The next batch of items that pop out of the center pipe will include the players that were tossed out.

Ending

All players who have collected at least one coin perform their winning animations in the oasis (if a team earned zero coins, its members do their losing animations instead), and the screen zooms out to the original angle. The twister then returns, and the oasis disappears along with the players.
