Mario Party Superstars

[Khaelis]

One of the reasons why I skipped out on Super Mario Party (besides clearly not being too great) was the fact it did not support Pro Controllers. JoyCons are so uncomfortable for me to the point where I cannot use one for more than 15 minutes before my hands get extremely painful.

But, Mario Party Superstars is basically Mario Party: The Top 100 done right. AND it supports Pro Controller. Definitely picking it up. Can't wait to experience all the ragequits.

Never was big into Mario Party, but I enjoyed Super Mario Party enough after being “influenced” into getting it. The fact there’s actually online play means I can have fun with all my faraway friends is just a delight.

All I can say is I can’t wait for the Mario Party Superstars mayhem that will come in a future tbt event

i will absolutely be picking this up! despite how interested i’ve been in smp, i’ve refrained from buying it as i only have a switch lite and no joycons, which the game requires. i’m genuinely so ecstatic that i’ll be able to play this on my lite. i can’t wait!

Kinda wished they would've added some boards from different mp games throughout the years but I'm certainly not complaining about the 5 from 64! This will definately be a purchase for me!

I'm really interested in this! I've never played any of the old Mario Party's before so it's all new to me. I was actually planning on getting the current installment in the franchise but now I don't know if I should get that one or this one..

It's still a full-priced game and the new one is only four months away so I would personally recommend waiting for this one to come out.

Wasn’t thinking we’d see something like this!

I‘m hesitant that we continue to see games revitalized, but to see ‘best of’ games from the classics included into one package with new boards, better visuals, and the added multiplayer/save bonus makes this something I’ll probably pick up.

I grew up with the original MP and MP2 on the N64 - used to play them all the time with my younger cousins, and I mean ALL THE TIME. We had so much fun! The mini-games were the best. But as the years went by, they lost interest, and frankly now, so have I. I was pretty much done with MP by the 6th installment on the Gamecube. After that, I haven't played another MP game. Though Super Mario Party did make me feel happiness towards the fact the series isn't quite dad yet, it wasn't enough for me to drop $60 on a game I have no one IRL to play with. I'm not playing online with a bunch of randoms either, with crappy internet connection no less since Nintendo never has any dedicated servers.

Even so, MP still has a special place in my heart. Heck, I occasionally watch playthroughs of the OG Mario Party game just for nostalgia's sake - plus that soundtrack is just sooooo good!

With this upcoming installment, I'm happy to see the love for MP continue for all the fans!

I actually had no idea about the whole mess with controllers with super mario party! I think it's good to just forget about super mario party after this release. It was lacking in quite a few areas. I absolutely LOVED the older mario party games and am so pumped for this. Just seeing that peach birthday cake board and a few of the older mini games gave me a wave of nostalgia. I seriously can't wait to play this with my family online and the random matching feature is also an awesome idea. Seriously love that Nintendo seems to be catering to what fans want with this release. It's really unexpected and makes me happy to see.

I could definitely see Superstars getting DLC content after release.

I think a lot of us felt that way with SMP, I’m not so sure Nintendo is interested in that.

That's what I was thinking! But are they the same minigames or completely different or with overlap with Top 100? I wanted to get it but didn't want to play a boardless Mario Party for handheld. Stoked for Superstars!

I like what I am seeing with this one more than the last one.

Thank you! I think I'll do that ^_^

This actually looks awesome! I've played super mario party with a few friends before and it was decent, but this, oh man I'm actually hyped for this and might buy it for myself. The only other mario party game I've played is 7 so that's where my baseline is

 

[Croconaw]

This looks fun. I most likely won’t be getting it, but I’ll watch gameplay of others playing it.

I am really glad I held off on getting Super Mario party switch, this looks awesome! Huge nostalgia from the space land board and some of those mini-games. I have been looking for a new multiplayer game so this couldn't be better timing on Nintendos part. Probably also my favourite E3 announcement.

Mario Party 2 is one of my fave games of all time! As we speak, the cartridge is nestled in my N64 console right now. I still play it every year.

I'm really tempted by this. But I'll be disappointed if Horror Land isn't on it - I love that board more than any other in the entire franchise (and I'll admit, Space Land has always been my least favourite from 2, unfortunately - the mechanics on that board frustrated me more than Bowser Land's did). If Space Land is the only board from Mario Party 2, I may not buy it straight away, and instead, wait to see if they release DLC. I hate buying DLC, but I'll gladly do it for that board alone!

The highlight of E3 2021! ...or at least this is the consensus within the TBT staff team.

Who else is excited for this game?​

I was already excited when I first saw the showcase, but now that I know not only can you play with more than just the joy con but autosaving is now a thing, I am even more pumped for the release and can now be rest assured that pre-ordering it for me and family members/friends is the right decision.

Bonus is that it comes out on my mom's birthday.
