Dust Buddies (Mario Party DS)

Template:Minigame-infobox Dust Buddies is a 4-Player and Duel minigame appearing in Mario Party DS. The name's title is a pun on dust bunnies. The game starts with the four competitors walking down a hallway when a vacuum cleaner comes. Players must run away from the vacuum cleaner in the hallway to avoid getting sucked up, dodging obstacles, such as fluffs and buttons, along the way. What obstacles are located in a given location and how many there are change in each game. If the player is on a ribbon or a photo negative, they are most likely going to get sucked up faster. If the player is on a dust bunny, they will slow down. If the player hits a button, they will fall down. The ball is just a regular obstacle. However, if it hits the vacuum cleaner, it will rebound, and will make those hit fall. Either the players who cross the finish line or the last player standing are the winners.

Controls

• D-Pad- Move
• A Button- Jump

Rules

Avoid getting sucked up by the vacuum until you reach the finish, or just be the last one standing.

Tips

Sidestep the buttons and balls. Be careful when you step on ribbons or film strips, because the vacuum will quickly suck those up.

Ending

In the end of the mini-game, all characters will be on top of a dresser. The winner(s) then does the dance they do whenever they win a mini-game.
