Synopsis

You went to Mario's last Party and had tons of fun — so much that you thought a gig like that couldn't be topped. Think again. The guests are all here — and so are the bosses. With a slew of exhilarating new features, modes and adventures that mix cooperative and competitive gameplay, Mario Party 9 delivers fun like you've never imagined. Put on your party pants.

Mario Party 9 takes the fun and excitement you know and love from the Mario Party series and kicks it up a notch. For the first time, you'll get to show your stuff in thrilling Boss Battles. Form a bond with your teammates — but don't let it be too strong. You're going to have to work together to achieve a common goal — while showing that you're the team's top contender along the way. Play nice with your crew during one adventure, and then scheme against them during another. Just be careful — you're all riding in the same vehicle as you journey across the action-packed stages. Take turns as Captain of cool vehicles like a submarine, convertible, flying carpet and more. Immerse yourself in the thrill of the game using your Wii Remote's motion-sensing capabilities as you steer Bullet Bills through races, go bowling with Koopa shells and more. Fire cannonballs at Bowser Jr., and create a masterpiece by shooting balls of paint onto an oversize canvas. With the endless adventures of this new Mario Party you'll have 9 times as much fun as you've ever had.
