Dcubed Posted June 18 Posted June 18 (edited) Looks utterly sick. The new boards look insane, love the gimmicks going on here! Also crazy that it's taken this long to finally do the Mario Kart thing of bringing back Retro boards as extras... speaking of which, that Mario Kart board looks nuts! Also... @Glen-i PLAYABLE BOO IS BACK! Edited June 18 by Dcubed 1
Hero-of-Time Posted June 18 Posted June 18 20 players online...yeah, I'll be surprised if that actually works. The previous game couldn't run in a stable fashion with 4.

Glen-i Posted June 20 Posted June 20 Well, I don't know what to say other than it worked fine for me. Were you playing with random people? That would explain a lot.
Dcubed Posted June 20 Posted June 20 Yeah, my online experience with MPS was very solid. Very rarely did I ever get any bad connections, whether playing online boards with friends or on Survival Mode with randoms; though you're always gonna get the occassional blip with online play, that's just the nature of the beast. I was shocked at how well it was done, no complaints here with MPS!

I was shocked at how well it was done, no complaints here with MPS! Well considering Glen nicks Dcubed's internet, of course your experiences were the same. Yeah, I played with random players. This isn't an isolated incident though. A lot of Nintendo games run like garbage for me when it comes to online. Most of the Kirby games that featured online modes ran terribly with 4 players and the NSO games are very hit or miss with how they perform. I have zero issues with online games that I play on my PS4/PS5 so it ain't a connection issue. It's 2024. A game should not struggle to run an online mode that only features 4 players but excuses are made and the issues tend to get waved away or dismissed because it's Nintendo. 1

Your connection will only ever be as good as the guy with the weakest connection. Doesn't matter how good your connection is if someone is playing handheld at a McDonald's.
Julius Posted July 8 Author Posted July 8 (edited) Max with the best Mario Party reaction from the Direct "2 boards from previous Mario Party games make their return!" "FUCKING HOW?!" Totally his reaction to Mario Party btw, not something else in the Direct. And spoiler tags aren't working so...yeah it's totally for Jamboree Edited July 8 by Julius 1
Julius Posted August 15 Author Posted August 15 Some pre-order bundles have been added to the Nintendo Store: The Nintendo Store always has some really nice pre-order bundles, shame I don't have the space
Glen-i Posted August 30 Posted August 30 (edited) Pauline's in. Why you'd ever pick her over the likes of Boo, Monty Mole, Spike, or Shy Guy is beyond me, but there you go. Edited August 30 by Glen-i
Dcubed Posted October 12 Posted October 12 With Jamboree coming out next week, I figured it was time to fill out my tierlist of the Mario Party Superstars Sticker List (given that the stickers will be making a return in Jamboree)... It's not only tiered, but ordered too! Nobody likes You Got This Will be interesting to see how the Sticker Metagame changes with Jamboree... We already know that current reigning champion Betrayal! has been hit hard with the nerf hammer... Even with the Bayonetta-Smash-4-To-Ultimate style nerf... it's still Betrayal! at the end of the day though There's a LOT of new characters... so the metagame could change pretty substantially... Ninji alone brings about a lot of new potential! 1
Glen-i Posted October 12 Posted October 12 I must give my thoughts on this very important subject. I mostly agree with that list, but I would swap "But...Why?" and "Fweet!". I would also bump "There it is!" up a tier. Other then that, yeah, pretty accurate, exciting times coming though. Hopefully, a whole bunch of Boo stickers are incoming!
Glen-i Posted October 17 Posted October 17 Boo gets special dialogue when you use Boo on it Didn't have time to finish a game. The pace is a tad slower then previous games. Might have to play 15 turns on this one. It's great though, Even with @Dcubed stealing a star from me when I'm in second, who does that!?
BowserBasher Posted October 17 Posted October 17 I may be tempted to get this if we end up playing a lot of NE games. I have £50 in Amazon gift cards so may use them to get it. Just won’t see myself playing a lot of single player. 16 minutes ago, Glen-i said: Even with @Dcubed stealing a star from me when I'm in second, who does that!? Yeah who would do that? 1
Dcubed Posted October 17 Posted October 17 Yeah, we’re part-way through our first board (which we’ll finish off later tonight), but this is tits so far The Buddy characters are so stupid broken that it’s hilarious. Fancy stealing two stars with Boo in one turn? I do!
Glen-i Posted October 17 Posted October 17 (edited) OH GOD! YOSHI'S POSTURE IS UBER WRONG! I HATE IT! EDIT: BOO HAS POCKETS! I LOVE IT! Edited October 17 by Glen-i

Glen-i Posted October 18 Posted October 18 OK, I'm mad impressed at 20 players in one online minigame running so well! Koopathalon is a riot! Don't sleep on it.
Glen-i Posted October 18 Posted October 18 Over 25 years later, and they still insist that Mario's Rainbow Castle is "1 Star Difficulty". 1
