Money Belts
- This article is about the Mario Party 4 minigame. For the Mario Party 6 minigame of a similar name, see Money Belt.
Template:Minigame-infobox Money Belts is a 1-vs-3 coin-collecting minigame in Mario Party 4 and Mario Party Superstars.[1] Its name originally refers to belts with pouches for money or other small items. This is the only coin-collecting minigame in the game not to feature the music "Full of Vigor"; instead, its music is "Try Hard, Folks."
Introduction
The camera shows two conveyor belts with boxes containing the solo player on top and the three other players on the bottom. The boxes wiggle, and the camera changes angle as the players jump out of the boxes. The game then begins.
Gameplay
The lone player starts on a small conveyor belt, while the team starts on a larger conveyor belt beneath it. The conveyor belts will start moving, and coins, cookies, and candy will start coming out. Players must collect the coins and Coin Bags. The cookies and candy block the players' path, possibly causing them to fall off the conveyor belt. If that happens, players must wait until their characters return via a box. At the end of 30 seconds, players keep whatever coins they collected.
Ending
All objects on the conveyor belts disappear as the players line up on their respective territories as the camera changes angle to the front. The players do their winning poses, but if no coins were collected at all, the players sulk in disappointment.
