    This is simply a drug, mini-games are hilarious, varied and never dull, Besides, it's enough replay value after finishing the main story.
    MPA is one of the few brave and special games for GBA.

    This Is The Most Unique And On The Go Mario Party Game.
    The Quests Are Fun To Do And Minigames Are Pretty Goo.
    It Only Has 4 Characters and is single player.
    You Can't Play With Friends or CPUs.
    But It Still Is Fun And Quests Are Fun And Mini games Are Fun!
    I Like This Game! 8/10!

    It's not like the other Mario Partys, but it's still a very good game!!! Maybe some additional charakters would have been good...

    DON'T get this game if you are looking for something similar to the other Mario party games. (which is what almost all of the other reviews are focusing on) this game is not that at all. if you want a portable Mario party, get Mario party DS instead (The best Mario party of them all).
    Go into this expecting a more solo-focused game. Minigames are AMAZING, The quests are fun and

    Go into this expecting a more solo-focused game. Minigames are AMAZING, The quests are fun and interesting. If you judge this game on its own merits, you're bound to have TONS of fun.

  2. The focus on creating a "game" out of the franchise is commendable and makes for a worthwhile purchase if you're a GBA owner looking for something to keep you busy on the bus.

    The GBA just isn't suitable for a party game the nature of how Mario Party is supposed to be, however the DS, equipped with wireless and forthcoming online play, is a whole different story.
