TIME FOR A HOOTENANNY!!! This game is epic. My favvy maps are western world and the pirate one of course

Favvy mini games: platform peril, bumper balls, hexagon heat, toad in the box, cake factory, day at the races, face lift, crazy cutters, bowsers big blast, look away… yea.. good games 😻

nem sabia que era possível zerar esse jogo

This game is a classic for sure, but I hate that you can only hold 1 item.

Questo gioco è più divertente dei Mario Party moderni, dei Party games in generale e della carne di vitello tritata.


it still sucks but luigi gets a cowboy hat so it’s a definite improvement

THE BEST ONE. IT HAD THE OUTFITS

The song that plays on Space Land, is a Space Jam.























I hope you cringed when you read that

This is a fantastic party game and in my opinion, the best in the franchise. The graphics have aged as expected for a Nintendo 64 game, but when you play you forget about them entirely. I've played with family and with friends and every time it was amazing. Only downside is that friendships may be destroyed by the Honeycomb Havoc minigame...

Call me crazy but I didn’t care for this one compared to MP 1 & 3. Was able to play this one shortly after it came out and wasn’t impressed then, a few years later the family owned the game and still didn’t like it. I’ll play it, but not my jam.

they really peaked early but ya know what thats okay

Oh heck yeah. I am not at all good at Mario Party 2, as is documented in the Tarvould's Quest Mario Party League. But I'm all right with that. So much of the heart of what makes Mario Party good really hits its stride in the second game. Great board design, great mini-games (many of which are salvaged from the first game, true, but they're uniformly improved here), fun item balance, ample opportunity for inter-player politics... I don't know that I'll ever have the patience or interest in becoming good at a Mario Party, but I am very happy to return to this one as a favorite among friends.

Most of my issues with the game come in retrospect: one item allows for less strategy than three items, more interesting items are waiting a little further down the series, more characters are generally more fun, etc. But what's here, especially for its placement in the series, is really damn strong.

This is a great time but honestly I don't see it as "the best" in the series personally.
Has some fun mini games, but several are reused from Mario Party 1. Half the maps are great, but the other half are bad. Item were introduced but you can only carry one so there's hardly any room for strategizing.

Mario Party 2 is good but was still at that phase of trying to perfect the formula that Mario Party 3 achieved later on.

*actually on switch vc

this is effectively a better mario party 1. i love the gameplay so much i find myself replaying boards time and time again. really looking forward to playing mario party 3 when it comes out on switch virtual console.

Mario Party 2 is definitely an improvement over the first game for sure. For starters, the boards don't suck ass now. In fact, I'd go as far to say that they're the best part about the game (except Mystery Land, that one's awful). The mini games have gone from shitty to...mixed. Some amazing ones, some poopy ones, it's a mixed bag but still an improvement over the first. Also a lot of the bullshit rules that made no sense from the first game have been fixed, thank GOD. I don't think Mairty Pairty Dos is the best one like most people do, but it's still pretty decent

Mario Party peaked with this one

MARIO PARTTTTTYYYYYY

When you've got 3 friends and this game. You're in for a very good time. No asterisks, no concessions, it's just a great time. This game makes many improvements off the first game with more balanced boards, better aesthetics and cool theming for each board, a better minigame selection, and classic music.

I can understand why some call this the best Mario Party game but I personally believe Mario Party 6 and Mario Party Superstars have it beat. This is still a great one and always has good vibes for multiplayer fun.

nothing better than permanently scarring your familial relationships with your siblings by playing either this or monopoly

im the sheriff of sucking you off!

Still the pinnacle of the Mario Party series. Refined what the first game did well and threw out what it didn't. Great board design, good balance of skill and luck-based minigames. While future games have more variety and modes, this is the essential Mario Party experience


O Mario Party que mais joguei na infância, e o meu favorito da trilogia de 64.

Nothing will ever top Western Land. You can run over other players with a train and throw a Hootenanny for 20 coins that fucks up everyone's spaces.

Love the theming. Maps and minigames are fun. I think the switch emulation holds back the controls a little bit tho.
