Coney Island (minigame)
Template:Minigame-infobox Coney Island is a 4-player minigame found in Mario Party 5. It is named for the famous amusement park in Brooklyn. The minigame takes place atop a statue of Mario holding an ice cream cone, which plays homage to another New York City landmark, the Statue of Liberty. Originally, the minigame was named Ice-Cream Catcher, and was included as part of a Mario Party 5 demo found on a bonus disk bundled with some copies of Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.
This minigame's object is to catch the scoops ice cream that fall from above by moving to where their shadow is. The player with the biggest ice cream cone at the end of the thirty-second time limit (and therefore, the one who caught the most ice cream) is the winner. There is a variety of ice cream flavors in this minigame, from vanilla to mint, and from chocolate to possibly orange. Here's a list of ice cream colors and their respective flavors:
- Light yellow: Vanilla.
- Green: Mint.
- Orange: Either Peach, Orange or a similar fruit.
- Brown: Chocolate
- Maroon: This looks like a popular mix between Berries & Cream.
- Yellow & brown: Most probably Vanilla and Chocolate together.
- Blue: Possibly Blue Raspberry.
As the player's pile of ice cream becomes bigger, it will be harder for him or her to walk and turn, making it more difficult to catch the falling scoops of ice cream. At the end of the minigame, the winning player's ice cream cone shrinks to an edible size for a reward along with the ten coins.
