Mario Party 6 looks like it could be a very fun game.
...
So you play Mario Party 6 using a tampon?
Interesting, the first actual innovation in the series isn't even all that innovative :D.
Still, you know I'll be playing it when it comes out. I won't BUY it, oh heavens no, this is the sort of game you let your FRIENDS buy and you just play it with them :D. I suppose online play (won't happen) is coming along with Mario Party 7.
...Then comes Mario Party 7-2
They should just start naming the games by year. Mario Party 2005 instead of Mario Party 8.
And what if we two in the same year?
Then all hell breaks loose!
Two in the same year? I don't know if even Nintendo would do THAT... :)
But yes, I think it is well past time to start a yearly naming thing with this game, like Epic has done with Unreal Tournament... it might make it look not quite as ridiculously over-remade...
As for the microphone, I guess it's okay. Whatever. It's not like I'll be getting Mario Party ten million anyway.
I hate it when new releases of software are named by year. It's just about as silly as sticking the version number in the title. There's a reason MS stopped doing that (at least with the OS's). I mean, I wouldn't want new Zelda games named by year, it would RUIN it.
(Just, just go with me on this, okay? :D)
It only works well if it's a yearly product, I think. Mario Party would be much better off as a game which shows up a couple of times per generation, definitely, but as long as it IS a yearly thing, it starts getting stupid when they're at Mario Party 6 or 7 in 6 or 7 years, I think. As I said, using years disguises a little bit the fact that they are horribly over-using the franchise.
Exactly. Imagine having Madden 17.
It'd be even more obvious that the primary purpose is exploiting their customers for more cash.
I haven't played any Mario Party games beyond 1.
I've played, and owned, 1-4.
I've only played one of them I think, in a store demo...
They're fun games if you can find 3 friends to play with you.
