Because they'd have the stigma of numbering them in double digits like an 80s slasher movie.

They need to maybe theme them somewhat. But I agree the newrly annual iterations were getting a bit stale, considering they reused a lot of the minigames all the time.

Maybe they want the next game to have minigames that uses the Wii Remote, Nunchuck, Classic Controller, Wii Zapper, Wii Wheel, Balance Board, WiiSpeak, MotionPlus, and the Vitality Sensor?

Publisher: Capcom
Developer: Hudson Soft
So Hudson's still making it while Capcom releases it.
It's kind of funny how it seems like this doesn't involve Nintendo at all. Kind of like Mario and Sonic in Japan.

Seems like they're using a mixture of Mario Party 7 and 8 as the basis for the port. Seen boards and minigames of both titles in that trailer.

So then, this is more or less like that Mario Kart Arcade-only game from a while back, except it's Hudson and not Namco responsible for development.

Nintendo really doesn't seem to have any qualms about farming out some projects onto other developers onto other "platforms," so to speak.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
This is probably the 'new Mario' game Charles M said he was going to Seattle to do VO work for not too long ago.

Isn't Hudson responsible for a lot of the Mario Party games? My surprise is with Capcom publishing and not Nintendo. Wtf?

Edit- Oh it's an arcade game. I thought it was something for Wii. Heh.

Not really. GP was an arcade adaptation of Mario Kart. This is a completely different type of game, with Mario Party shoehorned in. Medal games in Japanese arcades are huge, but don't go believing this is going to be anything more than gambling for idiots with a thin veil of mario cuteness.

Hudson developing isn't really any surprise. In addition to the Mario Party series, the did do Sonic Shuffle which is basically Sonic Party, so a sensible assumption is that Hudson is quite familiar with board game-like game design.

Capcom publishing is weird though. Maybe it's because of Capcom's more notable presence in the declining Arcade culture that Nintendo decided to have them publish this game.

If you guys knew the pedigree for medal games, this thread would probably be deserted aside from a few hilarious fail photos.

Heh, I thought this came out ages ago (Capcom released a DKJB esc game in Japanese arcades too)

What a weird matchup though. Capcom publishing a Hudson made Mario Party game with no involvement from Nintendo :lol

Wait wait wait wait wait.

A MARIO Party developed by Hudson... PUBLISHED BY CAPCOM? How the hell did that happen? Oh shit... Nintendo sold Mario to Capcom!!! Megaton!!!!

Nintendo is the ip producer of the game. Nintendo has continually partnered with SEGA, Namco, and Capcom in Japan when it comes to publishing their software in the arcades.

For the record I don't think Hudson Soft is involved in this port. The developer listing is simply a GameTrailers guy assuming it.

I misread the op at first as "Mario Kokoro Catcher" and thought that it was going to be some crazy Mario dating sim. Now I know its just some crummy mario party thing. My dream of dating Mario is ruined :(
