IT'S THE BEST GAME EVER, IT GOT MANY MANY MINI GAMES IN IT. "GET IT, OR GET OUT"

Mario Party 2 is the BEST party game ever!

I highly enjoyed Mario Party 2. The minigames are addictive, the boards are interesting, and the minigames you dislike don't turn up a lot. There are also items you can buy, which can help or hinder. There are battle minigames, where you have to put a certain number of coins in a pot, and whoever wins gets those coins, and item minigames, where you can win items. The only bad point is the one player game. It gets boring after a while. I would recommend this game to anyone.

Far superior to mario party 1. I think my wife and I enjoy playing more than my 6 and 11 year old. Unlike the first Mario party you aren't penalized any coins for losing mini games, which makes it less dissapointing for the kids. The new boards are original and fun to play (with the exception of mystery land which is like running around in circles). Buying the special items adds an entirely new dimension to the game and allows players to really use strategy to win. I also appreciate that no mini games require spinning the joystick. No more unsightly hand indentations

By far the best Nintendo game to date.

You won't be disappointed

When the first MP came out it really looked corny, but because I rent alot of video games I decided to give it a shot. From the first moment, I was hooked. When MP2 came out, I rushed to buy it. It is definetly the best party game out. I have had hours of enjoyment already. The rule that sequels are not as good as the first does not apply here. Now if they could only follow up Goldeneye with as good an effort!

Much Improved Sequel

I have played both Mario Parties ad infinitum with my son and his friends. This game is a real improvement because it does not penalize and has real challenge and variety. My son says: I love the game because you do not lose coins in mini games and no twirling the joy stick in mini games. Many better boards and mini games and the new mini games are awesome. I like items that help you on the board(my favorite item is the Dueling glove).

A lotta Plumbin'

When I played this game I was totally captivated by the totally and extremely spiffy graphics and this excitement came to the point where I had a heart attack followed by an out of body experience I finally got inside my body again because without use of my hands it would be hard to play. To put a long story short.... ...its a good game.

No need to attend this party

I bought this game because of all the hype. Yet,that's all it was. The first game I played was exciting and new. After that it's the same old thing. It is basically an electronic board game with no real excitement. There are four different settings horror, mystery, western and space. You can play 25, 30 or 50 turns. You can also select at any time human or computer players and you have to watch all of their moves. It is repetitive and boring after awhile. I have owned it 2 days and that's enough for me.

Entertaining outside of solo play but can be long

Got this game for a friend who thoroughly enjoyed Mario Party. The mini-games are definitely fun with more than one player but it can be rather long even on the shortest setting (20 rounds). We did manage to go through all of the "lands" and had fun in each of them (we had our favorites) and being able to "purchase" mini games so that we can go and play the one's we enjoyed the most was entertaining. This game may be a great way for 2-4 kid's to gather and play together. Some games do require a lot of button mashing while other's take a bit more concentration so its a nice mix of games. I can see where it may become boring which is why its recommended to get several friends together to play. Overall, its a fun way to pass some time - for many, it will pass a lot of time!
