Another Party game. |
| creepy_lizard from Bahrain says (23/Nov/2005): |
graphics:The Graphics were clear and made the game look really good.8
Sound: Well, all the songs in the game sound the same...meh, the characters voices weren't bad though.6
Gameplay: you will see your GameCube Handle on fire after atleast playing 10 Minigames, none stop botton-pushing fun!10
Originallity: Well, Many other Party games were created before Mario Party 5, But for a Party game...It's pretty original I guess.8
Plot: Party Games don't usually have a plot, but the story mode of the game does...not a bad plot, but not that good as well.5
Characters:um...Mario Characters!, deserve to be loved!.10
Time: The story mode is pretty short, but you will have a long time trying to unlock all the Mini games!9
Idea:Well, Mario Party games are not the best thing Nintendo can make featuring Mario, They should stop making them for a while and make more Action Mario games.7
Addictation: Yeah, You may get addicted to it, Even though I didn't 7
My thoughts after closing the game: Wow, That game is really good, But I played better.8

THE CAPSULES RUINED THE GAME!!! |
| A gamer says (18/Aug/2005): |
The mini-games are great, BUT the fact they replaced the items and the item shop with some weird capsules; it completely ruined the entire game. The problem with the capsules is that the player cannot choose which type of effect to have on the capsules because the machine gives it to you randomly; when there were items; the player was capable of choosing what to buy. Also capsules are placed on any desired block; whoever passes of falls into this block is affected with the capsule’s special effect. When there where items, I didn’t have to wait until someone passed or felt onto one of my blocks, I could of used the effect whenever I desired, like the Reverse Mushroom, which would reversed the desired opponents steps for the next turn, or like the Magic Lamp, which would of have taken me directly to the buyable star. I rather play Mario Party 2, 3 or 4 that does contain many useable items!!!

This games the best!!!!! |
| Ryan from U.K. says (10/Dec/2004): |
Mario Party 5 is one of the best games i have ever played.Everyone i know loves the game.There is a big improvment from Mario Party 4 one being the brand new super duel mode.In this mode players make thier own machines and battle it out in a wide range of arenas.The highlight of the game is party mode where you and three other people(either computer or human)battle on a board game style map.The objective is to collect the most stars in a certain amount of turns.This game never gets boring because of the wide range of mini games and all the styles of gameplay:)

Its a fun game |
| Ariana from Round Rock, Texas USA says (5/Jul/2004): |
Yeah, I like this Mario Party. I just cant beat the last stage in Story Mode =(. Its preety cool and the graphics and sound is ok. I like all the mini games, but some on them are a bit easy. Its only a 7 because its not the best game out there but its one of the tops. I hope i can beat this game. Its a really cool game and I think you should buy it. Its cool that they made more games for Mario. Well, I hope you enjoy it! =) have a great time playing and hopfully beating this game.

hip mom from tn says you just got to have one |
| wendy from church hill,tennessee says (2/Jul/2004): |
this game is the greatest for children and adults... there is several reasons why,,,, one is everyone can play together i feel that childern do not spend enough time with thier parents these days and with this the kids and the parents can play something hip together.. and two it is good clean fun that i feel as a parent teaches our children to think a little and use thier hands for something besides getting into trouble. now the game is to be the best one that they have came out with besides the first one. i would really like to see that one come out again on a newer machine or a game with them all on it like a combo of some sort. but if you have big or small childern or if you like gaming then try it i know you will love it if you play like i do any where between 1 to 10 hours a day

this game is alright |
| Jeromy from WV, USA says (22/Jun/2004): |
I, for one, thought this game was alright, the first one is the best and you can hardly beat the first of a series of games and movies. The cast of characters for one wasn't all that great, I did like the fact you could play as toad, toad is my favorite, but come one daisy? She is one of those players that you really dislike, ALOT! But she is one of those characters nintendo came up with and I guess she should be recognized. But I didn't fully hate this game. it was fun, some of the games were a little weird, and some childish, but its a mario.

THIS GAME IS SOOOO CALLED AWSOME! |
| Mystery Dude from Rome says (1/May/2004): |
this game is really so called COOL!!!! i dont know what you other stupid people are saying that this game stinks but you know what? U GUYS STINK, STUPID, AND OLD GEEZERS!! the graphics in this game are much more better than most of the mario party games. i really love to play every mario party games that come out because i have every series of the mario party games!!! i dont really consider myself a mario fan but a luigi fan, but mario party games really rock and are so called totally fun! you should really get this game if you want to party all day and year long!

This game rocks! |
| Ryan from Portland, Texas says (17/Mar/2004): |
This game has great mini games and items in the party mode. The Super Duel Mode is really fun and pretty challenging. The bonus mode has excellent games, such as the ice hockey game. I may not have much to say, but this game is the best Mario game yet! The graphics are pretty good also. This game also has a great story mode with an ironic twist. This game also has classic characters, who are Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, Daisy, Waluigi, Wario, DK, Toad, Boo, and Bowser Kid. All of their mini games except a few are extremely addicting.

its all over for old, washed up mario |
| mish from melbourne says (8/Mar/2004): |
Mairo should have finished while still in his prime, but seeing as he didden't he is now his games are out of style, and each time the new mario comes out the creators just look more silly and out of the times. Seeing as all modern day mascots (EG coco the monkey) try to be cool where as mairo is out of the time and that is shown by the poor crafts manship of this games creators

Come on! It's getting a bit stale, nintendo morons! |
| Matt J from Melbourne, VIC, Australia says (8/Mar/2004): |
After its 5th crappy installment with huge overpricing I begin to think you gamecube lovers are extremely stupid. I mean, come on, this game is exactly the same as the last FOUR titles. And you nintendiods are still lapping it up!
The graphics are as nintwndoey as usual! 3/10.
The sound is as gamecube pop fizz as usual. 1/10
The gameplay completely stupid nindendo bull. 2/10
Lifespan reeks of gamecube. 1/10
Fun factor is the only saving grace. 4/10
Originality LOL 0/10
Value is just blatent supidity! Premium price for a junk game!
Overall just plain unoriginal gamecube crap.

Mario Party 5: Pros and cons |
| Joey I. from woodbridge, nj, united states says (7/Jan/2004): |
Mario Party 5 is a great game, but like any other game, it has its downside. I will list the pros and cons of this game in a non-essay form (who would read it if it was an essay?)
I'll start with the pros. The mini-games are all new. A lot of them require tapping A as quickly as possible (which is sooo easy) The boards (maps) are also all new, and are laid out very well. The graphics and the sounds are great. Wario even speaks German! (what is Wario, a German?)There are also some new added characters. The teams even have names! Mushroom Stinkers (Toad and Wario) are the best team!
Now for the cons. DK (DG) is not a playable character!!!! I found this out while I was in Kmart playing the demo waiting for my girlfriend to get out of school. I almost cried when he wasn't there. ( I was DG ever since MP1) I'm just glad that at least he is still in the game. If you land on his spot, he will either give you coins, or even a star! (He is such a generous fellow) Other than that, this game is great!
So go out and buy it for hours and hours of heartache and fun!

The Best Yet Mario Party Game!! |
| DaveDaBomb from South Carolina, US says (1/Jan/2004): |
This is a great game! I give the graphics a DEFINITE 10. Thw music isn't great but goes along so well with the gameplay, it's great! I would give all the stats on this game a 10, but their are to many luck and chance games. Oh well, it's good!

I Think This Game is Best Compared To All The Others. |
| Gloria Weaver -14- from Waterboro, USA says (28/Dec/2003): |
This game has its good points and its bad points. The whole plot in Mari Party 5 is that you are in a world of childrens dreams. In story mode, bowser is (As always) trying to cause trouble and make them nightmares.In all the other mario parties there was a very repeatitive plot and the story mode tended to get very boring. Sadly, I also think the same for Mario Party five. The plot repeats itself and there is only an easy goal. The reason why I decided to give this an 8 though, was because of all the new and interesting games, features, and boards. The game is much more interactive and it move along much faster. In story mode, the games are very repetitive, and it still tends to get boring, but there are many other modes that you can choose to play in. There is now a Card mode, where the board is hidden under cards you have to flip over. There is also a battle mode where you can create and drive your own car and battle friends, or computer players. Although the game has some very boring aspects to it, all of the new things account for it. Such as the fact that there is no more items. Items, in my mind were a pain, and also having to watch the computer players buy them was a pain. Now there is capsule machines where you get a free capsule every time you pass one and you can place it on a square. Stars are very easy to aquire which makes the game fun and easy. The game doesnt give you a headache or even make you stressed anymore. All in all, I really love this game. There could have been a wider selection of characters, but this is fine enough. And the fact that Donkey Kong is nice to you and helps you out is the BEST! Some of these new ideas are great. The graphics are much better, lifelike, and smoother, the sound is crisp and accurate to the expressions on peoples faces, and all and all, this is the most original mario party created. Well, if you really want to know more about the game, I suggest you buy it! It is well worth the money!

mp5 WOW! |
| TyLeR. from USA says (26/Dec/2003): |

Mario Party 5 In The House! |
| James McLelland from Jersey says (15/Dec/2003): |
Mario Party 5 is the best I've played. Now that there is no item shop, you now get capsules. You still have to pay even though you use one on yourself. I'm just gonna carry on playing this until I get all Mini-games. Pity about Donkey Kong, though. He is not a playable character. If anyone likes any Mario Party games, but this one! All Super Nintendo players are back on it!

this game is sweet!!! |
| A gamer from toronto ontario canada says (25/Nov/2003): |
