Plot
Toad, Koopa Troopa, Goomba, Boo and Shy Guy all found the odd, mystical Party Cube. According to the instruction booklet, they have invited all of the game characters to celebrate the birthday of a character (the character is chosen by the player). However, instead of just giving the character the presents, they make the characters win the presents theirselves. Eventually, Bowser enters to ruin things with his own board, hosted by Koopa Kid (known in PAL regions as Mini-Bowser).
