  • Summary: A Superstar collection of classic Nintendo 64™ boards - Calling all Superstars! Mario Party™ is back with 5 classic boards from the Nintendo 64 Mario Party games. Frosting meets flowers as you race to get the most stars (and sabotage your opponents) on the Peach’s Birthday Cake board fromA Superstar collection of classic Nintendo 64™ boards - Calling all Superstars! Mario Party™ is back with 5 classic boards from the Nintendo 64 Mario Party games. Frosting meets flowers as you race to get the most stars (and sabotage your opponents) on the Peach’s Birthday Cake board from the original Mario Party game. Or watch the countdown that unleashes Bowser Coin Beam and hold onto those coins on the Space Land board. The tides can turn quickly in Mario Party, so stay vigilant, partygoers. This and all other modes can be played online**, too! 100 classic minigames return from the Nintendo 64 and Nintendo GameCube™ games and more!

    Try your hand at a Superstar collection of minigames from throughout the Mario Party series. Whether you are saving up coins for stars in board game mode or practicing in free play, there is nothing quite like being the last one standing in Mushroom Mix-Up or Shy Guy Says. All minigames are played with button controls, so you can stick to the Joy-Con™ controller or bust out the Nintendo Switch™ Pro Controller or a Nintendo Switch Lite system.

    Party with superstars near or far

    Bring the party anytime, anywhere with same-system***, local wireless***, or online** play. Matches with friends in board game mode save each turn, so feel free to take a break and pick up where you left off. Use stickers to praise or pester fellow players as you race across the board collecting stars. All modes support online multiplayer, so you can hop in with friends for a few minigames or a marathon 30-turn match. Victory is just as sweet (and stealing stars is just as satisfying) from anywhere across the globe.

    With a great collection of classic mini-games and a surprising level of challenge, even for experienced players, there’s plenty to love about Mario Party Superstars. While it can be unfair at times, the randomness of the game keeps emotions high, spicing it up for everyone and making each new game fresh.

    Mario Party Superstars is the ultimate celebration of the franchise on Nintendo Switch. It takes the best minigames from past entries and creates a game that looks beautiful. New animations, useful features, and a very good online multiplayer makes this entry in the series the best Mario Party ever created.

    With Mario Party Superstars alongside Super Mario Party, the Nintendo Switch has two different but great series installments. While Superstars would benefit from more boards, it’s a charming nostalgia-laden trip with far-reaching multiplayer appeal for family and friends of all ages. It’s also replayable as ever, with online play, achievements, and unlockables.

    Mario Party Superstars is the best game in the series, bringing a better selection of minigames and fewer gameplay gimmicks.

    Mario Party Superstars is a blast from the past put into a very clean and modern package. It’ll definitely be more appealing to older generations of gamers who grew up before the early 2000s. The minigames and maps have aged well and showcase moments that truly defined the Mario Party franchise more than 20 years later.

    Mario Party Superstars certainly provides the highs that the series is capable of, but unless you're restricted to playing on the Switch Lite or itching to play with a Pro Controller, there's a better version of this game available for you and your loved ones to play in Super Mario Party.

This is that full on wildness we've been waiting for. I hate my friends. I hate myself even more. This is it. Mario Party Superstars brings the real energy. I understand they didn't want people dying from alcohol poisoning with 50 rounders anymore. Though, now we just do best of 3 30 rounders. Nintendo you can do a lot of things, but you'll never stop the party~… Expand

    I hate to seem biased by rating so many Ninty titles a 9 or 10....but jeez!!! They are doing so well! This is THE best Mario Party game everI hate to seem biased by rating so many Ninty titles a 9 or 10....but jeez!!! They are doing so well! This is THE best Mario Party game ever released. No more motion controls (which makes this way more skill based), the boards require actual strategy, the dice has been returned to normal (all characters get a 1-10), oh and the graphics are gorgeous. Everything has a true HD shine to it, character models along with level textures are high quality and the game has a certain polish. Even the most lame mini games are enjoyable due to how well the controls have been implemented. Speaking of mini games, I think the selection is truly worth the title, "Superstars". Do yourself a favor and pick this one up, you will see what I mean once you play it. : )… Expand

I also wish custom dice for each characters was still in the game as AN OPTION, but at the end of the day, most people would disagree with that.

The stable online mode, the charming graphics and of course the friendship-destroying gameplay of days gone by shows that there is still potential in the series. Mainly the small number of boards and characters gives hope for future support. With a little more variety, Mario Party Superstars could establish itself as a de facto party game.… Expand
