Mairo party 2 is better.It has new mini games and boards.Also it has better sound too.You are proable wondering how I know all this.Well I am a person who gets nintendo power.The best sorce on games.It told me things.So I know all this becase of np.So this is one hot game of the year.And one more thing.If you had the first one.You remeber that you had to twirl the joystick on the controler sometimes.Well you will not do it again on the new game.But the new ones are hard though.

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).

great for family play

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.

MARIO PARTY 2

From Rules Land which teaches you how to play the game to the mini-game rollercoaster this is definitely the best game I've played. If you didn't play the 1st mario party, Rules Land is a good 1st stop. Once you've learned how to play, it's time to conquer all five worlds, Pirate Land, Western Land, Space Land, Mystery Land, and Horror Land. Then if you beat every world, Baby Bowser kidnappes Toad and tells you to go to Bowser Land, Bowser's very own theme park. Then there's mini-game land, Where you can buy mini-games from Woody, play the games you bought in mini-game park, play the mini-game stadium and compete with your friends, and play all the mini-games in mini-game rollercoaster. Last of all is the option lab, where you can check your game records, erase all game data, view the credits, and listen to sounds and songs from the game. I recommend this game to anyone who enjoys board games or mini-games.

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.

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!

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.

Great game to play with family

I love nintendo and the great games such as Zelda, Madden 2000, WWF Attitide, etc., but my wife hates those games. So we got this game. She loves it because it is not hard and you don't have to memorize some complicated button combination to be good. As a result, this game lets us spend time together and have fun. I agree that this game is not by itself all that great, but the fact that I can enjoy the game with my family makes it a top choice for me.

My son, who is 4, also can play as well and again its a game that the whole family can play together.

In this day and age of advanced games that are often one player and have incredibly complicated button combinations moves, etc, this game brings back the simplicity and excitement that many of us felt when we first played Ataria in the 80s.

If you have young kids ( age 5- 12) and you want to play games with them, this game is a good choice.

Mario Party 2 is the best game to buy!

Mario party 2 is the best game I have ever played,(followed by Mario party 1!)I prefer to buy this game or rent it. Either way, you will really enjoy it. There are about 64 mini-games, some that have been updated from Mario party like Handcar Havoc. There are 6 worlds, western,horror,pirate,mystery,space and Bowser land. It is a lot better than the original Mario Party. It Rocks!

Great family fun!

I have an 11 year old and a 9 year old. We have been enjoying this game for the past week. I can't get my kids away from it. More fun than Mario Party- more mini-games, new lands, new fun! I recommend it for the whole family!
