Mario Party with only minigames is like icing without cake or toppings: it tastes great and it’s essential to a lot of great recipes, but by itself? It’s hardly nourishing and you get sick of it after a bit. That perfectly describes this game, nostalgia-baiting shovelware with a pathetic selection of modes. Everybody has fond memories of certain minigames, but they work mainly when they have something at stake, like coins in the board game or points in one of the competitive mini-game modes. Apparently Superstars renders this obsolete anyway, and has a better selection of mini-games, so there’s no point to this game anymore.
