Mario Party 9 Nintendo Wii

The latest game in the smash-hit Mario Party™ series, Mario Party™ 9 is bigger and better than ever! Bursting into stores on March 2nd, players of all ages will love this fast-paced family favourite.

The perfect way to get the party started, there’s 80 exciting new minigames waiting for you to discover. Whether you’re using your Wii Remote™ to escape from Mechakoopas in Mecha Choice, bashing buttons in Launch Break or racing for the line in Speeding Bullets, up to four players can join the Mario madness at once!
Featuring a host of your favourite Mushroom Kingdom characters, players can compete with and against each other to collect the missing Mini Stars. Travelling thorough the unpredictable Game Boards together, no two games will be the same. You’ll take turns to roll the dice and decide the fate of your party, and even need to work together to overcome intense boss battles at the end of each stage.

On top of all this amazing action, Free Play offers the chance to perfect your skills and get an edge over your opponents, while Extras mode lets you try your hand at something different with Gombah Bowling and the puzzle-based Castle Clearout.
There’s something for the whole family in Mario Party 9.

Features:

• For the first time in the Mario Party franchise, each stage culminates in a Boss Battle. Collectively, players must combine their strength to defeat classic foes such as Bowser™ and King Boo while still playing competitively to boost their own individual scores.
• In another first for the series, players ride across stages together in special vehicles. Players take turns as Captain of the vehicle by hitting Dice Blocks to move the party forward, hoping to land on lucky spaces.
• The vehicles also help to streamline game play and keep everyone involved in the action. Unique Captain Events on each stage give players a new way to change the shape of the game.
• In Mario Party 9, each themed stage has a clear destination point but with multiple paths along the way, so no two games will play the same. From Toad Road to Boo’s Horror Castle, players will encounter a wide variety of familiar Mario™ franchise elements in new environments that can be enjoyed solo or with friends.
• Includes 80 outrageous new minigames that find players making pizzas, escaping haunted mansions, and racing snowmobiles.
• No time to play through an entire stage? New minigame modes let players enjoy the action in smaller chunks of time. They can hone their skills at any minigame in Free Play mode or try the Extras mode that includes Goomba Bowling and the puzzle-based Castle Clearout.
• Every time they play, players can earn Party Points that are used to unlock special items and features.
