A Huge Dissapointment...

When I saw the commercial for this Mario Party 4 I almost jumped out of my seat. 50 mini-games?! I took my hard earned $..., and purchased the game. Five minutes into the game, I realized that I had made a mistake. Mario Party 4 is boring at best. Gameplay is constantly interrupted by text-boxes full of meaningless information. 75% of the time is spent watching the animated characters move around. To top it off, the mini-games that I was looking forward to turned out to be quick little dissapointments. If you are looking for a great game with hours of potential game play, get yourself a copy of Super Monkey Ball. That should hold you over until a new version of Mario Kart comes out.

Can this game get much worse??

I'm sick of mario party titles. The first one was fun, the second one was weak, but still good, and from there on the series hit rock bottom and dragged it's way across it. It may entertain someone who's never played the series, but everyone else will be dead sick of it. Mario party should have stayed Mario Party, and there shouldn't have been any sequels. Obviously Nintendo's in this franchise for the money and only the money.

NOT FOR ANYONE OVER 4 !!

This game is such a waste of money!! You had to be a brain-washed Mario "fan" to Love this game!!! Only my 4 yr. old LIKES this game!!! You CAN"T Leave the game when you Want to...You CAN"T save the games YOU want to save... You just , hop around a Monoply type game board, without much brain work or control of YOUR character.... WHAT IS THE POINT to Mario 4?

Mario Party 4 is a waste of $

I bought my 5 year old this because it was a multi player game.
This game is like a board game, the players rolls the dice and move in turn. It is extremely boring and slow moving. If you want to play a game like this any $ board game would be more fun. I was not able to sit thru it for more than 10 min. The mini games are a bit less boring than the actual game, but they are not enough fun make it worth torturing yourself by playing this game. I dont understand how anyone gave it more than one star.
DONT waste Your $ on this game. Your money can be much better spent on - probably anything!

Bad

I bought this game after reading reviews that said it was great - i was very disapointed! If you have never played a Mario Party game before heres the deal - you and 3 other players COM or friends take turns on a board game...after all 4 players have had a turn you play a mini-game...The main problem I had with this game was the fact that you have to wait for the game - you have to wait for intros and movies etc and it just gets boring beacuse everything takes too long! If you want some fun multiplayer action and still be able to play by yourself buy monkey ball!

Where is the real Mario

My kids received Gamecube for Christmas and Mario sunshine and Mario party 4. Since then, I have returned the Gamecube and both games. My 5 year old and 8 year could not play them. My sons thought the games were confusinig and not any fun.

Waste of $money$

This game was addictive to me for a while, but it got real old FAST. The storyline is stupid, I mean really, who wants to work their back off trying to get presents for YOUR birthday?! Also, the game way too easy, and the game is a repeat of Mario Party 3. No new character and character voices, it's once again just a bunch of annoying squeaking animals. In addition, there are only 6 boards in total, and they are so plain. This game seriously needs to take advantage of the Gamecube features. Apparently, Hudson and Nintendo are still living in the Nintendo 64 era. The only thing OK about the game is the graphics. Beside that, it's a waste of money. Don't get it, I warn you, you'll want your money back very soon after purchase! You can also see my review on Mario Party 5 if you visit that page.

These games get worse and worse...

Back when the first Mario Party was released, I thought that it was a very fun multi-player game. When the sequel came out, I enjoyed it as well. The third time however I was getting bored with the series, thinking that it was getting very repetitive. This 4th edition doesn't many bring many new changes to the gameplay. It's the same exact set-up it has been, and probably always will be. Nintendo needs to get it that that the Mario Party games just aren't fun anymore. Finishing a board is now a chore to do. So are some of the mini games. Don't get me wrong though, I actually enjoyed some of the mini games very much, which saved this game from getting no stars. But all in all, if you're going to get a Mario Party game, get one of the first two for the Nintendo 64. Those are better. Oh, and whatever you do, don't get the 5th one. I can tell it's going to be a re-hashed version of this edition.
