Mario Party Superstars - Nintendo Switch

A bday gift for a 5 year old boy - made him super happy!

I purchased this game so I had a game to play with my five year old son. He and I absolutely love playing together. My wife and I will play with our neighbors too. Its a nice change of pace from Game Night board games.

Only 5 boards on the game but still lots of fun to play!

Absolutely love this game! If you’re a Mario Party fan this is the game for you it honors the past and does a great job with the five boards brought back. Horror land is the best! Even if you’re new to the series it’s easy to pick up. Great game with family and friends!

Game was still in great condition but the case was utterly destroyed. Im not sure if it was the packager or the shipper so would still buy from here again.

Great product. Nintendo online software is not so great. Very hard to stay connected for full game

I grew up playing Mario Party for the 64 so was excited to order this one! I’ve been kind of disappointed by other Mario Parties but had hopes for this. Overall, I would say it met expectations. Definitely had elements of nostalgia and I love that the games are all unlocked at the beginning of the game (versus having to unlock them as you play). Definitely a very “new gamer” friendly item and an excellent party game. I like how you can edit certain aspects such as giving out the “bonus stars” as well as the speed the CPUs move. They have a “sticker” option which may be fun if you’re playing online with people but I just found it annoying and tried to “hide” that feature. You get coins for playing games but the things you can “unlock” are mainly nostalgia things (such as songs) which is just “meh” to me. Wish it would’ve been costumes or something fun and unique like that! I played a few games (and one main game) by myself and felt content with that. I’ll probably only play with company but I know it’ll be super fun (and great for all gaming levels) when I do! Good staple game to have.

Been playing Mario Party since the first ever one and now I play it with my kids and this is by far the best one ever released. Its combined all previous games and features loved in previous ones. Absolutely will be playing this non stop.

Are you a Mario Party fan who has been let down by the series since 9, and felt Super Mario Party was a poor imitation? If so, this game is for you! The best way to describe Superstars is to think of it like a remixed greatest hits album. The game consists of five boards from the first three games, as well as 100 mini-games from all the games. One might hear this and think: why should I spend $60 on this when I can get Mario Party 2 for a fraction of that price? You would be right: but this game has full online multiplayer. Thats right, you can play Mario Party online with your friends. In addition, there are some nice quality-of-life improvements to the games: - Peachs Birthday Cake has the Bowser seed in a different location, and going to Bowser is actually a good shortcut to get to the star. - You can now fast-forward through the previously unskippable board cutscenes. - The items that the shops sell are now tailored to the board. There are a lot more warp blocks in Woody Woods, and more Chomp Whistles in Horror Land. - Some of the mini-games have been revamped. Dizzy Dancing now has several notes to collect, and Mushroom Mix-Up now has different patterns on the mushrooms, allowing color-blind players to play along much easier. - The game tells you how many spaces you are away from the star, and at junctions, will mark where you will land. - In the last five turns, the board music will change to a more frantic remix. Yet there are also some strange quirks in the game: - Some of the mini-games seem redundant. There are two count the enemies games, and two jump on enemies to ascend the highest games. - This one brings back the Lucky Spaces from Super Mario Party, where a roulette wheel gives you either coins, an item, or reduces the price of the star. Im not certain if I like this feature or not. There are so many of these spaces on the board that it seems to slow the gameplay down. It also makes winning mini-games not as necessary. - The AI in this game can be monumentally stupid, even at the highest difficulty level. Ive seen cases where they will miss shortcuts to the star, or use items for short-term gain instead of thinking ahead. - This game has achievements, and some of them involve being in the top 1000 on online records for certain mini-game feats. Knowing how competitive players are, some of these achievements are going to become downright impossible after a few months. Should you buy it? If you have never owned a Mario Party game before, and this sounds interesting to you, then definitely buy it. However, if you already own the N64 games, consider whether the online play and quality-of-life improvements make it all worthwhile. Perhaps wait until Black Friday for the price to go down.
