Mario Party 9 Review

By Anthony Severino

Ain't no party like a Mario Party.



It’s been almost five years since Mario Party 8 appeared on the Nintendo Wii, and that’s because Nintendo went back to the drawing board after a mixed reception post-release. New developer Nd Cube is now at the the helm with Mario Party 9, and they’ve brought some new favors to get the party started right…

  • Mini-games are the best in any party game... ever.
  • Party mode matches don’t last two hours anymore.
  • Boss battles are an excellent addition.
  • The new star/zstar system.
  • Luck > Skill
  • Players travel the board together, taking away individual progression.
  • Sub-HD graphics look like complete crap in 2012.
