Mario Party 10

[n64king]

Honestly, I wish Hudson Soft didn't kick the bucket too soon.

Then again, after 5, the Mario Party series started to slow down in quality.

Ugh I agree, I was so disappointed that Hudson Soft died. So much good came from them.
I felt like 5 was the start of the boring. 6 & 7 had their charm but they were nearly identical in many ways and they came out really quickly after one another too if I recall which was weird. I already didn't really like 5 when they changed it from items to Orbs. More than half of them were luck based because someone had to step on a space you threw orbs at.

I'm really curious what MP10 will have for single player mode, it seemed like they wanted to change last time so you pretty much need more humans. Riding around in the cart with computers was boring.

Well, at least Donkey kong is back, and Rosalina will be in too for all the people who want to play as her.

also it looks like there will be throwback minigames, such as the one with the ghosts being like Running of the bulb from #1, and the sled one being Bobsled run from #1 and #2

Oop, and the bowser minigame where he rolls the cylinder you are inside is Shock, drop and roll from #2.

There's probably more but I'm tired so I forgot the names

Why did they even remove Donkey Kong? If it's related to the Rareware loss that doesn't even make sense at all. I never hated those DK Mini games but he poofed right when I was gaining appreciation for Donkey Kong.

Have you guys seen the official artwork yet? I really like Rosalina and Peach's designs, they did something different with the faces I like it.

Spoiler: Artowrk

That's some nice artwork. It raises some questions about Spike. We can assume he's playable being shown with the playable characters, but I don't know.

oh man why Spike? there are many better characters like Petey Piranha, I was so sad that Petey wasn't playable in MK8

Why do all of the newer games have to hvae one or two enemies playable that never appear again?

Blooper, Hammer bro
Shy guy, Kamek

I kinda don't want Spike playable

- - - Post Merge - - -

It would be cool to have Nabbit, though!

 

[The Hidden Owl]

I've only had 8, it kinda sucked...

If they made an actual interactive board you could place amiibos on that would be cool. Like hook it up to the gamepad.

nabbit is confirmed non-playable board thing in bowser party :L

With the info we have, what do you guys think about the game so far? Does anyone think it will be better than 9? It looks nice, and I like the character selection so far, but I'm not sure if it will play any better, which makes it hard to justify buying it even though I want to.

 

[a potato]

I have mixed feelings. I never actaully played MP9, but I know how bad it was. I may get it for the other modes though. (And the Toad amiibo hehe)

 

[Dreamy Luigi]

I played MP9 and I miss the old style. Trying to get more tight on money so i wont be buying this.

 

[Jinglefruit]

I bought 9, played each board once and returned it. And so far looks like if I buy this I'll end up doing the same. Might wait and see if I can get it pre-owned or something in a year or so, but not making the mistake of forking out full price for it again.

bump for new info (from jubs)!!

New japanese website is up! http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/abaj/index.html
Go browse the pictures and videos to see how amazing it looks!

Some things I've/(and jubs) noticed:

- Rosalina, DK and wario will get their own amiibo boards as well
- amiibo boards will have minigames(!!!), I deduced this from the amiibo symbol under some of the minigames, see here - http://i.imgur.com/oxyNidT.png?1
- The minigames look so fun!!! Go look at some of the videos for them

I'm still reading it for now but If i see anything else interesting I will share it

also just found this!! http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/hardware/accessories/index.html

TOAD WII MOTE

some more on playable characters

I assume this is all the playable characters which could also mean future amiibo, which might involve rereleasing rosalina etc. Now the hidden ones, a safe bet would be to say that they are toadette and spike, as they are the other character artworks that we have seen but who knows...

the hype is real

 

[Javocado]

These minigames are lookin sweet!
My favorite is the photo pose one!

 

[Tinkalila]

I'm so relieved that Daisy is confirmed. She's my favorite mario character, and I always played as her when I got my first mario part game, Mario Party DS! Hopefully this also means a Daisy amiibo.

 

[Yoshisaur]

Meh 10 looks too similar to 9 for me. The most recent Mario Party game I've liked was Mario Party DS. I still play that one ALL the time. I'll never get tired of it.

 

[DarkDesertFox]

I'm excited, but also a little unsure. I haven't looked at the gameplay, but it will bother me if sharing/using the Gamepad is a big part of the game.

 

[Rasha]

I heard in a comment somewhere that the game actually comes with a free amiibo, is that true? I wonder where people get their info from because there's nothing to back that claim or at least I haven't seen any :/

The Petey Piranha boss is from Mario Sports Mix .-.

Yes! I saw it for pre-order on Walmart's website. It came with a Mario Amiibo. I don't know if you can get other characters in a game bundle.
