With this new save feature, it is possible to enjoy longer games, which introduce new strategic ways to play. When playing previous games, I rarely ever touched 20-30 turn games because they could take hours.

You can also save your board game adventures, and return to them at a later date. Other new additions to the game are completely new to the series, including the ability to speed up AI text, a fantastic quality of life improvement for longtime fans of the series.

This will come as a great relief to Nintendo Switch Lite players, who for Super Mario Party, required Joy-Con purchases to play the game. Also gone are mini-games requiring motion control, which wasn’t available during the days of the Nintendo 64. This is a change from the last few Mario Party titles which have featured boards that have a beginning and end, with no complete loop to round-and-round for up to 30 turns. Unlike more recent entries in the series, all the courses in Mario Party Superstars will be looped, like traditional board games. Gameplay will mirror previous entries in the series, although with a few notable exceptions. Players will be able to enjoy Peach’s Birthday Cake and Yoshi’s Tropical Island from Mario Party, Space Land and Horror Land from Mario Party 2, and Woody Woods from Mario Party 3. While a few fan favourite boards might not make an appearance, the five selected are pretty beloved by Mario Party fans as a whole. Mario Party Superstars features 100 mini-games taken from previous entries in the series, and 5 boards from the Nintendo 64 era of Mario Party titles. Mario Party Superstars Detailsīrand new gameplay mechanics and features Whether you have played these titles in the past, or are trying them out for the first time, this collection of the earliest Mario Party games is outstanding fun. While almost everyone will find a favourite mini-game or board not available in this new release, the overall package hits home in so many ways. While straight remakes can be controversial with fans, compilations of multiple titles are generally well received. Nintendo is king at remastering old titles into new packages.
