Honestly, this game feels like it was designed to be put in some museum of Nintendo. Expand

    I have played all 5 boards of the game two times by the time I am writing this review, the game is really great, if you ask me what is my fav MP games I would say 4,3,6 and then maybe MP superstars, I am glad this one is going back to it is original root.

    pros: - great qol on gameplay, it is so smooth almost no loading time, really great work. - good 5 board all in all, not GREAT!

    pros:
    - great qol on gameplay, it is so smooth almost no loading time, really great work.
    - good 5 board all in all, not GREAT! they could be much better.
    - great amount of mini games and very skilled based.

    cons:
    - money is easy to get in this game, the lucky blue circle are unnecessary in these boards.
    - shop items aren't great and they could use more advanced items.
    - game is so heavily in punishing the winner and going easy on last place player, yes this is how it was before, but now it is very obvious.
    - only 8 characters you can play with.
    - no story mode.
    - it is still possible for someone to buy a star and the next star will respawn right NEXT TO HIM!

    great game but could have been much better, if you want to play this game with fixed rule, I would say no one allowed to buy golden pipe and you can't buy 2 stars in one roll, have fun.

    - The game gives a lot of coins on the board. Lucky spaces are all over the place so it doesn't seem to be lucky to land on these.
    - A draw minigame result rewards players all players? If a game has some sort of competition and 2 players end up in a draw, why are they both being rewarded in the same way as they would have won? A fair result would be to split the reward in 2.
    - I think the game has a decent net code, but sometimes the other players have a very unstable connection that actually may affect the outcome. Especially survival that you may lose because of an unstable connection and lose the winning strike.
    - I am aware that there are bonus stars, but sometimes the categories could be more about rewarding effort than just rewarding randomness. People who won most of the games/coins, use/purchase more items, etc. instead of rewarding somebody that landed on red spaces?
    - Add the options to cancel the game search whenever you want.

    That's it. In general, is a good game that needs some game balance to make it more "fair." A must have for Mario Party lovers.

    After essentially feeling scammed by Super Mario Party, I was wary about going into this one. But this is easily one of the top 5 Switch games and has everything I wanted and expected from Super, and it just oozes soul.

    Complete online functionality, meaning you can play the actual boards online with friends or strangers, and is hands down the best online of any Nintendo game to date.

    Complete online functionality, meaning you can play the actual boards online with friends or strangers, and is hands down the best online of any Nintendo game to date. Most of the time it's been seamless gameplay with no lag or stuttering, almost like I'm just playing on the couch with friends. I've disconnected once, but was able to rejoin again (CPU plays your character in the meantime), however I've read the host disconnecting could mean you can't continue.

    Maybe it's not a good idea to praise a game too much on its nostalgia factor and to wear those "rose-tinted glasses," but it needs to be said that Mario Party Superstars really captures the essence of playing those classic games as a kid. Same old Mario Party games with a fresh coat of paint, the graphics are great.

    My only want right now is a way to open an online lobby for randoms. It is easy enough to start a room and post the room ID in an online forum to get more players together, but there should really be an online lobby list similar to Mario Golf: Super Rush. If you only have one friend who wants to play, there's no way to fill the other two spots with randoms unless they have your room ID.

    Anyway, love the game, and it's shocking that it seems to be flying under the radar a little, maybe because it's poorly titled. Super Mario Party and Mario Party Superstars are similar names, but Superstars is the best Mario Party we've had in at least a decade.

It did not disappoint and brought us away from our recent weekend staple, Mario Golf Super Rush, for a solid eight hours of gameplay in a few days. Classic minigames spanning all previous Nintendo console iterations with truly fun boards from the first three installments have made it a great purchase. Great graphics, immersive music and the fun gameboard-esque play that makes it easy to pop on a podcast and sip a couple drinks while laughing at what unfolds. I truly hope they continue support, as they do with Mario Golf Super Rush, with additional boards and content this will be a 10/10 in my eyes. Either way, a great buy and a highly recommended purchase for any couple, family or group of friends who enjoy a nice game night with the Switch. Expand

This game is a true homage to the original three Mario Party games for Nintendo 64, with lots of quality of life improvements and several of the better features from the later Mario Party games. It has the true spirit of the original trilogy. With friends, the game is easily a 9/10. Without friends, they did an excellent job by adding features to keep it entertaining, but it will always miss that magic of talking trash with your friends. The matchmaking is pretty solid, they implemented a chat system by being able to send various stickers during gameplay which makes it more interactive with the other players, and they added an experience system that allows you to get more unlockables (including chat stickers). Everything was implemented very well and definitely makes playing alone better, but it will be missing the true experience. All in all, I’m genuinely impressed with this game, they went back to the roots of what made the series special and added a lot of more modern features to improve on the formula. Definitely best enjoyed with friends. Expand

    I'm very impressed with this game. The magic of old Mario Parties has been recaptured, and this is definitely the best Mario Party in the past decade. There's a handful of issues with the in-game economy (coins are far too easy to come by, and a lot of costs have been harshly cut) but that's my only major issue.

First off is theThis game is good but not perfect like other reviews are giving out. I have eagerly been following since June as I’m big fan of original three MP’s and hated the last one (actually probably all from wii on but never played them). It’s good to see them do a “remaster best of” sort of thing and it all generally works with something’s holding it back from true greatness. First off is the fact there’s only 5 maps. Why? Why could you not add one more and make it 2 from every original MP but no, MP3 is shorted one. You see, in the original MP games there was always an unlockable 6th board. Even in instruction manuals it wouldn’t show you so here we all are thinking how cool of a throwback that will be but no, there is no unlockable board. What a huge disappointment and COMPLETE missed chance to throw in some more nostalgia nods. So yeah, there absolutely needed to be at least 6 boards how or why they decided this is baffling. But I’m taking off one full point right there for that non-sense. There economy isn’t also slightly broken. Not game breaking just annoying. While stars are back to 20 and golden pipe is 25, there’s still some other problems in which items are too cheap. Why is chomp whistle 7 coins? To move a star location upon your choosing should cost at least 15 maybe even 20. Skeleton key 3 coins? At least 5. Everything should cost more. Battle mini games should cost more. Playing a 7coin battle is very not threatening at all. It should be 10 min in be grinning and go 10, 20, 30 and 50 with values increasing towards the end game as in the original. Boo should cost coins to steal coins as well. There’s a few other examples like this you wonder sprinkled throughout as well Lucky spaces are overall not a welcome addition. This plays into last point of economy. There are an abundance of these spaces which are constantly landed on and constantly handing out an abundance of coins and items. This would have been perfect if there were FAR LESS. As in maybe 2 or 3 on the whole board. What the f*** were these guys thinking calling this lucky and throw so many in that everyone lands on them. That’s the opposite of luck when there’s high chance of landing on one. This has ruined my favorite map, horror land, as there as far too many on it. Me and many others were nervous watching pre release footage and unfortunately it turned out to be true; there’s far too many of those to land on. Lastly, there is no way for 2 people (co-op) via one console to jump online with random people. This is also mind blowing and one of the biggest disappointments for me. I had my brother over to play and showed clip of online mode, jumping into the pipe and going straight at it with randoms. So you think he’d be able to pick up controllers and jump into right? Wrong. There is no way to do that. You can in Mario kart and smash,right? A nice sexy option that says one or two online? Yeah let’s throw that nice option out the window here. You can make a room with two people but then you have to send out codes and all that bs. I just want to quickly join match with two people from same console and play online like you can on single player. All of these negatives hold this game back from being truly great but it’s still good. My hope is there is patch/dlc later that can address these issues. Problem is it’s not in the base game. So releasing a Mario party celebrating the first 3 with 5 maps is dumb, lucky spaces need far less, online needs local co-op random matches online and slight tweaking to economy and we could have had 9-9.5 experience here. But, this is ND cube who are infamous for making some of the worst. So for me to give an 8 is good. I really like this game here and I know it’s mostly a review stating the negatives but the OCD side of me tends to look at those because I want perfection, which I know is hard to pull off in MP. But aside from the gripes it does feel like the original Mario party, which many of us wanted, without motion controls, online and good graphics. I hope they continue with dlc and patches. Expand

    After the disappointment of Super Mario Party, this is exactly what I needed. Mini-games are great and varied, graphics are beautiful, and the boards are fun. I love how landing in an Item or another player's spot will trigger a mini-game. Having a 20 coin cost star again really helps to balance the competition.

    I have really nothing bad to say about the game. I would love to have DLC

    If you love to play Mario Party with friends this is a no-brainer, even if you have not played one before this is the best one you can get, you got all the best things about the previous games with the advantages of the switch. Even if you don't have a group to play with, you can start a new game Online! Try it out, you won't be disappointed.

    bland character selection
    only 5 boards sure these might have taken a while to remake but only 5?
    like why not at least 2 per game or gamecube boards
    not any extra modes like card party or fun things like that
    too many lucky spaces and you get to many coins

    is the game good yes but its lacking in a couple things
    this game is 10x more fun than super mario party and even tho its old content nd cube did a good job and i think this wil be my go to mario party for a while

    lets hope the next mario party is actualy good
    and that wil show that nd can make good mario party's
    if the next one sucks than nd cube just need to quit if they can only make a good mario party by using old content

    A great release overall, though it would have benefitted massively from some more boards; you'll play through the five here fairly quickly, some sort of story mode, and a more appealing art style (the minimalism is rather forgettable). The minigames on offer are mostly great (emphasis on mostly; looking at you, Bowser's Big Blast), and it of course has that classic friendship-destroying gameplay.

    A phenomenal party board game that does just what it sets out to do. I wish ND Cube developed new boards, but that's a minor nitpick. 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. Mario Party Superstars is the best of the modern installments and shines a bright light on the future of the series.

But here is Mario Party Superstars, a blast from the past and full of all that goodness that can cause the ultimate betrayals among the people you play with!

    Mario Party Superstars includes 5 total boards from the original 3 Nintendo 64 games. There is 2 boards from the first game, 2 from the second, and 1 from the third. Graphically, the game has been updated and all the boards look amazing, if you were a fan of the original games, this will be special for you. The boards themselves haven't changed in terms of how you play on them, aside from some differences here and there, it definitely has the newer Mario Party feel when compared to the more recent Super Mario Party and some additions that wasn't there in the original, like the lucky spaces, there is a lot of them though I feel this was to give casual and/or newer players more of a chance against the veterans who know their Mario Party. For the most part, it feels like the same boards as you remember.

    There are a total of 100 minigames, all taken from games across Mario Party from 1-10 which is pretty awesome. There was a lot of recognizable games here and some may have made me glance at the palm of my hand, I am still recovering from my N64 injuries of playing Tug o’ War, which is included here but also comes with a warning to NOT use the palm of your hand which got a giggle out of me. Overall I am happy with the game inclusions, I am sure there are people out there who didn't get their favourites but you aren't going to please everybody. There is a lot of variety in the games and plenty to enjoy.

    My time has only been spent playing it with my girlfriend at the moment with 2 CPUs. We have both played all the boards now and have had an absolute blast. I have not had the chance to play online yet though my girlfriend most definitely has, she is quite into the game and plays it against people online each day since it was released, to the point where I had to buy her the game for her own Switch as she kept using mine.

    Online inclusion is great and you can play full boards with other people from across the world, with stickers to help you communicate with them. Online play with the full boards was something that was missing from the last Mario Party so its great to see it in this one. For the performance online, even watching her I can see some regular lag during mini games especially that probably will be a little difficult to make the experience incredibly enjoyable, but overall it still seems playable.

    Final Rating - This is a fantastic game for a group of people to play or even just by yourself (though most fun with people), it brings you such a huge amount of nostalgia but is also great for newcomers too. Online being included is also a necessary and highly welcomed feature as there are people who are still in lockdown or have restrictions on groups of people in one place so props to Nintendo for that, its not something they typically do well. Definitely a game to pick up, you will have a lot of fun!

    Finally...
    I think this game can easily have a lot of DLC... add more boards and minigames... and maybe some originals, I mean, I'm happy with the old boards, but maybe they can do 1 or 2 completely new!

    Hands down the best Mario Party game we have gotten in over a decade (since Mario Party DS which released back in 2007 to be precise).

A true to form classic Mario Party experience, this is the Mario Party game we have long been waiting for. Any long time fans of the series will absolutely love this game for returning to its core gameplay mechanics, however when it comes to the newer fans who only started playing the series with Super Mario Party, I’ve been noticing a lot of them being skeptic about Mario Party Superstars because of things like its smaller roster of playable characters or its lack of originality, but I assure you that this game is a far better and more fun Mario Party experience than Super Mario Party or any other Mario Party game that has come out in the past decade, I guarantee it. The positives greatly outweigh the negatives, in fact the negatives are so small that they are almost negligible. In conclusion, Mario Party Superstars is a must have game for all Switch owners and should now replace Super Mario Party as your go to party game.

    Disclaimer: Most of the not so positive reviews I have seen are from people who are not very experienced or knowledgeable with the Mario Party series and thus have no understanding of what fans want with the Mario Party series so I would take their reviews with a grain of salt, but you can take my word for it as I’m a long time fan of the series and have been playing the series since the N64 games and have also played almost every game in the series.

    Loving Mario Party Superstars comes with the details. A short look from an unexperienced eye could led to think of this as a weak follow up to even Super Mario Party, the previous game in the series, and that is unfortunately because the game IS indeed short on content.

    Loving Mario Party Superstars comes with the details. A short look from an unexperienced eye could led to think of this as a weak follow up to even Super Mario Party, the previous game in the series, and that is unfortunately because the game IS indeed short on content. But for the fans this is the return to form we have always wanted.

    For starters, the classic rules are back, this time, truly back. Super Mario Party had the intention to resuscitate the series, yet Nintendo's stubborn desire to mix things up and make the series 'somehow' more accesible led to some questionable decisions that ultimately hurt the design awfully- couple that with some uninspired boards and Mario's first Party on the Switch was little but a mid step into stardom.

    Now things are back to normal. Stars cost 20 coins, Boo stealing cost 50 coins, important items like the golden pipe are more expensive and so on. Like I said, they look like small details, but all of them add up and ultimately make the game a lot more interesting, competitive, and super fun, just like it used to be.

    Better yet, this is a celebration of the series, meaning 5 classic N64 boards have been remade and modernized ensuring quality board design- for the most part, with Peach's Birthday Cake being possibly the lone exception (Not a big fan). But really, Super Mario Party's boards don't hold a candle to whats here , not only from a design perspective, but from just simply the absolute charm and personality that is displayed on both their looks and their sound, both magnificent.

    The mini-games are probably the only thing NdCube didn't messed up during the last decade of Mario Party, yet the return of 100 of a truly excellent selection of mini-games from the series past makes for what could be considered the best compilation the series has ever had. Almost all of them are extremely fun, and the developers really gave full care into remaking them- with all of them looking amazing. Whats more, all them have their original soundtrack remixed from each of their respective entry in the series. Its all great.

    Plus, and this is the BIG plus- for the first time ever, the game has fully operational online gameplay and it works incredible. Yes, Super Mario Party was added online a couple of years after its release, but its definitely clear that, that was only test to what ultimately the developers wanted to achieve here. This is one of the more stable, if not the most stable online experience currently on the Nintendo Switch and truthfully, such care was needed to bring this series online. its no secret that a Mario Party match can last a long time so having a bad online infrastructure and/or bad stability would have harmed the matches profoundly. Yet, it works miraculously well, and this is truly the best addition the series could ever had. If you are a Mario Party fan you know that playing with friends or other people for that matter its where is at, and with this, its finally possible to do it any time you want. Excellent.

    As of now, I have given this game much deserved praise, yet like I said the game still has one possible big issue. Lack of content. First with so much done well to bring back the series to its glory days, its somewhat disappointing to see some of its missteps. 5 boards is still one board less to any of the classic Mario Party titles up to the Gamecube (All had 6 or more) and there are no unlockable characters or mini-games. Some of the unlockables are fun, I enjoyed unlocking the Stickers to use them later at online matches, but aside from that, not much else.

    There is no single player focused mode either- I know Mario Party is a game to be played with other people but for the sake of variety, some of the single player story modes in the series past where very appreciated. On the other hand, Mini-game Island is honestly somewhat lackluster, I appreciate the Daily Challenges and Survival Mode (both single player- online experiences) but aside from that there are no good modes to challenge your friends competitively on the mini-games.

    This is why a naked eye could positively be confused at the time of comparing Mario Party Superstars to Super Mario Party which did had tons of extra modes to play, a single player mini-mode, and double the characters. This is definitely a fault, and I honestly do wish Nintendo decides to keep supporting the title- a new board or even 2 can go a long way, precisely because with the possiblity to now play online, it is meant to be played for a long time and 5 boards, as good as they are, can grow tiresome naturally.

    Still if the long review wasn't obvious enough I still think this is an incredible game. Really, it cannot be stressed enough how a great of a job Nintendo and Ndcube treated this return to form for a series that I deeply love. Like I said, its all in the details. Thank you Nintendo.

    Mario Party Superstars is essentially what I truly hoped The Top 100 could have been and a game I never thought they'd actually make; bringing back not only 100 mini-games from the series history, but also returning to the series true roots and bringing back five boards from the N64 titles.

As a series fan since the very beginning, Superstars is a true homage to what made the series great while also including quality of life changes that the more modern Super Mario Party introduced. The mini-game line up is, for the most part, phenomenal and the board selections were just as good, even if I would've rather seen a few others.

    There are a few nitpicks about this game, however, ones that I can deal with, but they are still details that could've made this game even better than it already is. I think the personal big thing for me is the somewhat imbalance of mini-game representation. I know it's clear that the N64 titles were the spotlight titles, but the rest of the series seems to take a back seat to them. Only Mario Party 6 managed to equal itself to an N64 title, but Mario Party 3 has literally double the amount of mini-games that both 1 and 6 have. And to address the MASSIVE elephant in the room, Mario Party 8 has only two mini-games in the entire roster. To say the least, the Wii/Wii U era was severely underrepresented. On top of the imbalanced mini-game representation, it's disappointing to see there isn't any sort of unlockable board or characters, something even Super Mario Party had. Beyond that, with the heavy focus on every mode having online, it leaves a lack of any sort of single player campaign. I'm not necessarily asking for a full story mode like in Mario Parties 3 or 4, but something as small as another Mini-Game Island would've been heavily appreciated, especially since The Top 100 did that so well.

    Overall, I think Mario Party Superstars is the best title in the series in a long time. While I still praise Super Mario Party and place it up there with the greats, Superstars manages to top it easily. After the strange directions 9, 10, Island Tour and Star Rush took, Super Mario Party was a breath of fresh air, but Superstars is the true party I've been dreaming of. I really hope Nd Cube continues on this path for future installments.

Also, I know this game is mainly targeted towards fans of the n64 games, but it has way too little emphasis on the newer games, which in my opinion has better minigames. Mario Party; The Top 100 had 12 minigames from MP9, but Superstars only has 4. That game had my favorite minigame collection, and I think a lot of newer fans such as myself won't get the full experience. In addition, this game feels a little too similar to The Top 100. I believe more than half of the minigames are the same, and while some popular choices were obviously returning like Pushy Penguins and Shy Guy Says, I feel like they could have had some more minigames that haven't appeared in a while. The Top 100 also had the decathlon and championship battles, while Superstars is mostly just boards and minigames. This game is definitely better because it actually has interesting boards, and I'm glad the boards are finally fun again for the first time in 8 years. I do wish this game embraced all fans, instead of just the older ones though. Expand

    This is a very good game. Easily the best Mario Party game in years. However, it's still a Mario Party game.

    The graphics are fantastic, and as good as anything I'd expect out of Nintendo. The game runs really well and the sounds are quite good. The game uses 5 classic maps and those maps still play exactly as they used to. Space Land, Woody Woods, and Horror Land are my favorite.

The game uses 5 classic maps and those maps still play exactly as they used to. Space Land, Woody Woods, and Horror Land are my favorite. The fact that the star moves so frequently adds to the fun. Peach's Birthday Cake and Yoshi's Tropical Island are also fun, but I don't like them as much as the first three.

    If you've never played a Mario Party game, it's like a board game with mini games in between each round of turns. Each person rolls a dice and moves that many spaces and the space you land on determines what happens. It also determines exactly how the mini game might play out. You could get a 1 vs 3, a 2 vs 2 or a 1 vs 1 vs 1 vs 1, depending on if people landed on good spaces, bad spaces or neutral spaces.

    All in all, it's a fun experience, but very multiplayer focused. Fun at parties with lots of people, but not something you'd want to play if you are just wanting to play by yourself. There is online play, which adds a lot to that aspect with both friends and random people online, but ultimately it really isn't a whole lot of content. A very fun game, but could really just use more of everything. More maps, more mini games, more playable characters, more content is really what's needed here. The basic gameplay is exactly what fans of Mario Party have wanted for years, but it just needs that extra bit of content to make it perfect.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. All in all, Mario Party Superstars is a great game with lots of mini-games, cool strategies etc.. But honestly, the previous game is way better than this game especially that there was a two-player mode, a four-player mode (rafting) and the single-player game where you have to beat all minigames. Unfortunately, both games only have 5 boards which is a bit poor. The achievements forces 100%-player to buy 20 € for an online service and some of these challenges are literally impossible or easy when you cheat. My most-hated item: Chomp Call. They have intended this item in Mario Party 4 anyway but it wasn't necessary to include in this game too. But for the rest, we finally got the 10-sided cube, double cubes, triple cubes etc.. So, this game doesn't gain all points in my opinion due to the ridiculous achievements and somehow absurd coincidences. Expand

    The 9 that I give this game is based on assumption that we get more boards. As the game stands now, I think an 8-9 is an appropriate score. If we get 2-3 more boards, then Superstars deserves somewhere between a 9-10.

    Yay finalmente um verdadeiro mario party, um dos melhores multiplayers que eu joguei em anos! Minigames, multiplayer online, multiplayer local, tabuleiros, gameplay, tudo muito bom. Acho que a coisa que mais me incomoda no jogo inteiro é o fato de ter poucos prsonagens e tabuleiros, mais o resto não afeta a diversão e qualidade do jogo, muito bom mesmo!

    This is a very fun and great looking game to play with only a couple of negatives which you can forgive.

I love the boards all 5 are fun and look amazing it will be great if Nintendo add one or two more in the future. My only issue is that some of the mini games are just not that challenging and can be over In 2-3 seconds which almost makes them pointless. With a few tweaks these mini games could become as good as the others but in their current form you will probably end up never playing them again. The only upside is that with 100 to choose from you can get away with missing the rubbish ones as fun and playable ones far outweigh the poor ones. I would say after Mario kart this would be tied second with mario golf as my second favourite game on the switch so far.I didn’t expect to like or play it as much as I have done so far. It would be good to see some extra or tweaked mini games added in the future as a DLC. Expand

    Now THIS is Mario Party.

    Let's see... Regarding gameplay, it's fantastic! The only thing I dislike is the amount of Lucky Spaces. You're not even "lucky" if you land on one because there's just so many of them! As a result, everyone always has enough coins to buy stars and items. Other than that, the game feels great! Local multiplayer is lots of fun. You'll definitely have a good time

    Local multiplayer is lots of fun. You'll definitely have a good time with all those minigames! Surprisingly, online works pretty well (considering the bad reputation Nintendo's online service has). There's some lag now and then, but at least it's playable. The stickers are also a nice touch!

    The design is amazing, although I wish there were more boards. Don't get me wrong, having 5 boards is definitely an improvement from the last entry. However, I believe that 6 boards would be ideal. I also wish the characters wore different clothes depending on the board, like in the original series.

    As a matter of fact, the content is somewhat lacking. For example, I've found it way too easy to reach max level and collect all the items from Toad's shop. Once you've collected everything, there are basically no more ways to spend your gold coins.

    Hopefully we'll get future updates with more content, such as boards, minigames, stickers and other unlockables... oh, and less lucky spaces!

    Overall, excellent game and perhaps the best Mario Party entry, IMO.

I believe that Mario Party Superstars truly proves NDCube's worth as a developer and as the babysitters of the Mario Party series. Graphics, sound, design, minigames are all great. I love how many more options we are given compared to their previous entries. However, I had one problem. Only 5 boards? And only the n64? I think that nintendo should at least add DLC to add some later classic tracks(specifically Koopa's Tycoon Town). It's a strange decision, given that the minigames(btw i think the selection is GREAT) are from all the different mario parties(handhelds excluded). I wish they tried to include a board from every Mario Party 1-8. Overall, this is sublime, and if this game got DLC to truly make it the all in one definitive all in one Mario Party experience, it would be an easy 10 and probably the best game in the series. Great job NDCube. Expand

    It’s been so long since we had a great Mario Party game, and so this does not disappoint! This game brings back the magic of the series in the good old days, and it’s a true return to form. We have some remastered boards from the N64 era as well as 100 classic minigames. They brought everything back to the way it was in the past, such as 20 coins for a star and dice that go up to 10.

The only big problem I have with this game is that it’s lacking in content. There are only five boards which is too low, there should have been at least one or two more. There should have been a few more characters too (like Diddy Kong or Dry Bones). The minigame selection is fantastic, with hardly any bad ones. I would have liked to see a few more from the GameCube and Wii games though. The graphics are amazing, they did a great job at updating all the boards and minigames into glorious HD. I know some people say the remixed music is worse than the originals, but I really like most of them. Another problem this game has is the amount of lucky spaces, there are too many of them and you can still get coins from losing minigames. But overall, this game is the first truly great Mario Party game since ND Cube took over. If they had less lucky spaces and more boards and characters, this could be the best Mario Party of all time. Hopefully they will add DLC to this game in the future, it can really use it. Expand

    Great and best game in it's series in years. My only issue is lack of maps (only 5) and mini games that are too similar too eachother. Feels like some are a cop out.

    Good overall game. Certainly nostalgic, as it compiles a lot of the game modes and levels from previous Mario Party titles. Loads of fun playing with your friends locally, also can play online which is a nice addition.

    Definitely a great blast from the past filled with N64 and a bit of GC, Wii and Wii U goodness. The game has only five boards and 10 characters which is a shame but it doesn't boggle down the experience too much. Waaaaaaaaaaaaay better than what Super Mario Party ever could be. (Also the online is pretty much lag-free.)

    I am really glad that Nintendo came up with this to pretty much address the (joy-con only and no online support) problems of the previous game "Super Mario Party" title, furthermore it also catered to nostalgic fans of the series by reviving the beloved mini-games from the Mario Party games of the past.

    It should've been perfect, but I have a minor problem with it, personally I feel like this is a kind of game you can't be seriously competitive, as "luck" plays a major part here, no matter how much you perform well on the mini-games (which I think should be merited higher) but sadly too much occurrences luck based results taking over with the dice rolls and luck/bad-luck tiles.

    Nonetheless, while competitive gaming is not balanced here, it is still definitely a fun party game to play with the family with all those great great mini-games.

    Mario Party Superstars is the twelfth million remake of the all-time classic Mario Party. It features five remade boards from the original N64 version and some new mini games, while including all the mini games from the other thousands of installments in the past. This game is the FIFA of Nintendo, it comes out every year and gives you one new or improved feature at a time for a quick fill of the pockets.

    But despite this, it is still a fun game to play with your family or friends. The goal is simple, as always. Collect the most stars before the final round is over and you are a winner. It is that simple. To do this you throw dices, buy special power ups to help you get to the star’s location faster and play a mini game after every round to earn some extra cash (when you win of course).

    The mini games are always great and never bore me, this game got them all, from 1998 until now. And they even added some more in this installment. It is just good fun.

    This game, like the other editions, can destroy friendships and tear families apart because of the constant torment you can inflict on your opponents by stealing their money or even stars. You also can limit their movement to 3 spaces max and to top it off, send the star to a new location when your opponent gets really close to it. Mario Party Superstars can be intense and sometimes I asked the question to my wife: “You think this is a f*cking game?” And then I realise, it is.

    My only complaint is that it needs to be remade almost every year, instead of just upgrade it with new content, like many other games. I know that the magic of money plays a part in this, but still.

    Mario Party, whatever the edition, will always be the ultimate party game with friends and family and remains fun to play.

    I'll give it up - this game is good! As always, playing with friends is much better than playing alone. While it would have been nice to get a few more boards, it is certainly a step up from Mario Party: The Top 100.

    As a total package, Mario Party Superstars is indeed pretty super. But is it more super than Super Mario Party? That's the real question, now that the Switch is hosting two distinctly different Mario soirées. [Issue #57 – January/February 2022, p. 71]

    A great party game that threw away the chains of unnecessary and counterproductive innovations from the previous episode. It relies on proven content from several previous Mario Party games, which works almost flawlessly in the new jacket. Maybe it would need more content, especially plating boards.

    Mario Party Superstars is basically a celebration of the Mario Party franchise. But technical issues still haunt the online multiplayer, besides the lack of attention regarding minor details, which ends up hindering the fun factor.
