Because 4's board design and items are blech. 1 has really good boards (that are prime for dicking over everyone else) on top of being able to turn on random dice blocks like warp blocks, 1-3 dice blocks, 8-10, minus and plus blocks, boo/koopa/bowser block, etc etc. More RNG on top of the already punishing stuff 1 does is great.

Truth. MP4 fans need to go back and remember those ugly boards and slow movement. It's not bad, but no series highlight.

 

[Strimei]

Kind of hard to believe you can condense it all into 11 minutes. There was just so much.

Also wow I forgot how chipper they were at the start.

edit: Oh man the music is a perfect choice.

 

[Luigi87]

I love how Jeff finally won at MP9.

Though they omitted the best part of MPP5, which was Brad getting revenge on Dan for a Star steal, handing Drew the win.

He won at 10. The last one.

Woops, meant that

An era has ended. Time to find the next game to torture the guys with!

Shame all of them besides 1 are locked behind their subscription. I loved the first one, but I ain't paying to watch the rest.

Mario Party is responsible for everyone being assholes

 

[RBH]

Mario Party Party is one of the reasons I got Giant Bomb Premium.

No regrets

I approve of this for obvious reasons...

Same here. I was already a huge fan of Dan Ryckert from when he did videos at Game informer, but this pushed me over the edge

This is still the best Mario Party Party video:

I absolutely love how this video is 30 minutes long lmao

 

[Bluth54]

I love seeing the souls of the Giant Bomb crew getting crushed by Mario Party.
If (or more likely when) Nintendo puts out a new Mario Party for the Switch I hope they're able to get the gang back together for another Mario Party Party.

never forget

Hey, I used to do that when I was a kid. Or throw the controller to the wall...

 

[MechaX]

To be honest, knowing that the song in the video was originally used for makes this even better in my eyes.

Mario Party Party meets Eurovision

Look at all these Mario Party haters in this thread. Must've all been the younger sibling who always got their stars stolen.

Look at all these Mario Party haters in this thread. Must've all been the younger sibling who always got their stars stolen.

Or the people that got fucking blisters and tore their palms apart because some degenerate at Nintendo thought it was a good idea to greenlight that shit Tug O War minigame.

Spoiler

Fuck Mario Party.

 

[jobrro]

Cool video.

Kinda surprised they squeezed 3 Mario Party titles onto N64 and 4 for the Gamecube. I didn't pay much attention between Mario Party 1 and 8.

Sort of want a Switch Mario Party now. I know the bread and butter is local MP but would like if they add online. In some ways might be a step back from the Wii U game, I felt the GamePad added some fun twists.

Id love for gbeast to do the mario party knockoffs

Your loss man. They deserve the money for their suffering.

 

[Death Metalist]

Ah yes

It's better with Careless Whisper.

 

[Fahzgoolin]

This is hilarious lol. Thanks for sharing.

It's an End of Evangelion reference.

Basically it's the happy song with depressing lyrics that plays during the end of the world in typical Eva mindfuckery.

The song definitely made me wish the world was ending.

 

[PtM]

What a bunch of wankers.

 

[Jopie]

I love Mario Party. Pushy Penguins in Mario Party 5 is phenomenal. I need to get some friends together for a 50 turn run, or two.

This part with Jeff's blank expression during Hot Rope Jump left me laughing

Man, does that dude ever crack a smile?

 

[Luminaire]

I forget if Dan actually liked Sonic Shuffle or not.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Man, does that dude ever crack a smile?

 

[OnionPowder]

I want Dan to go through minigame island in MP1

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Brad is a big fan of Shenmue?

 

[Blues1990]

Nope, Jeff is still immune to happiness.

Not that I'm complaining, as he produces great stuff for Giant Bomb and his deadpan, emotionless face is hilarious in of itself.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

They should play a REAL boardgame like Culdcept

Damn straight.

 

[Psychoward]

Not to derail the thread too much but it honestly blows my mind that people show up to a live event to watch other people play a virtual boardgame recreationally for an hour or so.

 

[Phu]

Id love for gbeast to do the mario party knockoffs

They gotta flip the script and do a series of games Dan would find insufferable.

Not to derail the thread too much but it honestly blows my mind that people show up to a live event to watch other people play a virtual boardgame recreationally for an hour or so.

 

[OnionPowder]

They should play a REAL boardgame like 100% Orange Juice

FTFY

Man, does that dude ever crack a smile?

Are you happy now!?

More like four hours.

[Onivulk]

Ya know, Jeff ain't a bad lookin guy.

 

[OnionPowder]

Ya know, Jeff ain't a bad lookin guy.

He's really not. He's lost a lot of weight when he got married, and as he's gotten older he looks a lot better. Proud of him and Brad for getting a bit healthier.

Brad is smoking now-a-days.

 

[Aselith]

Ya know, Jeff ain't a bad lookin guy.

I feel like this is a backhanded compliment since you are seemingly arguing against all the people saying the opposite

You don't know how long a basic Mario Party board goes, let alone the 50 turn boards, do you?
