Button Mashers
Button Mashers is a Duel Mini-game found in Mario Party 5.
This mini-game consists of two players who must button mash certain buttons in order to win. Blocks fall from the sky, and each has a button of the GameCube Controller on it. The player must press this button as fast as possible so the character can keep the weight. Things get more difficult when the second block falls. The player now must press as fast as possible the two buttons (Block 1 and Block 2) as fast as possible. Then will fall Block 3, and so on. The winner is, obviously, the one whose blocks don't fall. Upon winning, the victorious character will throw the blocks up back to the sky and do its trademark dance.
This mini-game takes place in a western-themed arena, common to many duel mini-games which consist of simple actions. The arena is surrounded by buildings. In the far background, a windmill and some hills are seen, as well as the entrance to the "town".
In-Game Instructions
Don't let the blocks crush you. Repeatedly press each button shown on each block to keep from being crushed.
Advice

Controls
