No cars

No movement gimmicks

No bullshit

DUEL MODE

Online multiplayer

Sure there's Joycon and motion control use, but almost everything has a physical button bypass and some of the minigames are really creative

I'm surprised how hard critics are being on it

I am surprised you're even giving this a nod when you know how limited it is lol


I really wouldn't want to play full boards with kids and salty adults when they can just rage quit and end the entire game

People seem to forget that possibility when complaining about no online multiplayer

Yeah it's great. I probably won't touch the online but I definitely dont think having full board play online is a good idea. People disconnect on Rocket League when you're down a point with 3 minutes left lol

Yep. Moment someone steals a star I guarantee there would be a disconnect in an online party game

It having only four small boards as of now is a knock against it, though.

Would be great with friends, though. It can be difficult to get together these days, haven't been able to since MP8 and even then only managed to squeeze in the one game.

New ones can always be added through free DLC

And online multiplayer with friends would be nice, but given Nintendo's unreliable netcode I wouldn't want games to be ended just because one person's internet hiccuped.

Sweet! Glad to see this topic. Not a huge Mario fan but the girlfriend is and surprised her with it tonight. Wanted a nice coop game for us.


Yeah you'll love it. It's new but different

And unless there's a drop in/out system (which there isn't even on local multiplayer), one person with inconsistent internet could ruin long games.

The boards look a bit basic, like they're all designed for really short games. Some of the really large ones from the past were more fun for how crazy they can get. I would say the "games as a service" mentality is also ranking it down a little. Not every game needs to have weekly rotation or free updates that probably could have been included in the base game if they wanted. They shouldn't plan on free updates from the get go, get a full experience out and then think of things that would be beneficial to add.

Well compared to the previous Mario Party entries, where they had "games as a service" sized content but with no updates, I think this game can go far with the right free maps.

Splatoon 2 had gotten a lot of free content since it came out and it has really helped keep people playing even after the paid Switch online.

It looks good, but the lack of online and having only 4 boards are some major flaws.

So then they could just add a drop in/out system?

Lol. It's like you guys are actively looking for reasons to suggest the game shouldn't be improved.


Of coir it's improved

It's the best Mario Party entry in years

But with how inconsistent Nintendo's netcode has been lately, I rather have no online and good local options than online with terrible reliability. Nobody would want online multiplayer that could potentially crash 60+ minute games without warning

I thought only having 4 boards that were small would be an issue, but it hasn't really been one
like, now the dice have lower numbers so it being smaller makes sense. and each board takes an hour minimum to play anyway, no ones gonna sit there and play 4 games back to back

You just came up with a solution to that yourself. Until these games get actual online multiplayer they're always going to be behind in the times


I'm telling you, it'll always be a feature that sounds great in theory, but terrible in execution.

I played it tabletop with 4 friends and it was a fucking blast

There's even a neat set of minigames where you "connect" two Switches together

It's Mario Party.

As long as you play with friends you'll have fun.
