Time to apologize.

Island Tour is one of the worst 3DS games I ever played, and I got that shit for free.

I'm not buying another handheld Mario Party unless it's 10/10 material.

>even cody hates it

Mamma mia that's how you KNOW it's bad

Mario Party DS was amazing great. The 3DS version was god awful

Cool, tell me which one you'd rape and murder

He's fake.

He became Travis

I might give it a shot, but I won't buy it unless I know it's good

I don't get why people keep asking for Mario Party to go back to the "original style" and stop experimenting

like I can sorta get it with Paper Mario because you only had two games but damn motherfucker you've had E I G H T (nine including DS) Mario fucking Parties with the """original style""", aren't you fucking burned out of it? I mean looking at reviews from back then, tons of fucking people sure were

>need four (or more) systems to get a group playing
Missed the fucking point of the games.

>Daisy in the back where she belongs
I want Daisy in a mainline game just to piss you salty faggots off

Its because this experimenting is shit
Nintendo plays it way too safe now. Overusing elements, making things to easy or uninteresting, and bogging the mechanics down like they did to paper mario.

>Ndcube

I ain't apologizing just yet

ND cube is literally the "mario party team" from hudson soft, they didn't go anywhere as much as the memes want you to believe otherwise

why is peach standing like that

>shit experimenting or stale formula that was on its last legs

hmm

She look like she 'bout to drop some BARS

>Diddy

call me when Funky and Boo make the cut.

Waluigi is so cute, do you think he'll blow up some stuff together with his girlfriend Daisy?

also check my 6

>Diddy has a Mario series amiibo releasing soon
>as it turns out Diddy is playable in the game
>Boo has a Mario series amiibo releasing soon

gee I wonder

Why do cucks get so hype when it's confirmed C-listers like Diddy are playable, like get a grip who even gives two shits about Shiddy?

It's like how nobody gave two hot shits about Birdo in Mario Kart Wii but when she wasn't in 8 everybody suddenly cried foul(???)

Hey, if they have tag team names what would be Rosalina and Peach's?

>make bad game nobody wants
>make good game that people want
??????
Why do people think change always equals good and that status quo is always bad?

In mario party's case the status quo was pretty fucking bad by the time we reached 8, yes, don't try to revise history, change was needed but the way they did it was shit

What was so bad about 8? Sure it wasn't the best but it was certainly playable and enjoyable. I really liked most of the maps on it. Well, the pirate one, the tycoon one, and the train one at least. And the bowser one. It had based blooper and hammer bro. The minigames werent too bad either. It just cant shake the reputation of the wii and its wagglan memes.

But the status quo WAS bad in pre-Mario Party 9's case. There was a reason they changed it, the series was like Mario cowadooty with its yearly releases and by 7/8 it was like "woooooooow another mario party"

That doesn't mean the change was good though. The car is so bad it makes people like you try to pretend that the old formula was never losing its luster at all.

Because people who like certain characters are satisfied when they're in, but not when they aren't

Of course is was placeholder boxart
only shitposters thought it was final

still though
>handheld mario party
just not for me, although it does look better than 10

Here, let me draw you all the boards on Mario Party 8

I could've done a better job but whatever. they were all straight lines

Day 1 pirate.

Do you know that for a fact? It might have DS Download Play or whatever.

>v likes mp ds
Holy shit. Had that crap and played it for years on single player. It was pretty gud.
Then I lost it and didn't look back.

I've been playing a lot of Mario Party 2 recently, and after trying to play 4, 5, and even 3 again I've realized that in the later games too much bullshit happens in between turns such that the game becomes a slog to go through. Player movement speed was atrocious post N64 era MP and every board would introduce a gimmick that was activated damn near every turn. If the game's too slow, playing it becomes a chore for everyone involved, and it gets harder and harder to enjoy the game or see the joy in chance times because suddenly there's this factor of "Oh, I just wasted four hours of my life for my stars to all be taken on the last turn."

From what I understand, MP9 did a great job of changing the pace of the game, even if it meant breaking the mold, but I haven't played it yet to confirm that suspicion.

Download is confirmed
