“Nintendo has never used these controls for Tug of War ever again.” Superstars: “We’re going to pretend we didn’t hear that, but we will put a warning label up”
At least Superstars doesn't want speed, but rythem. If you time your spins properly, you don't actually need to rotate in either rotation game very fast at all.
@@ravenfelter3055 That's a very good question, although I don't know the exact answer to that one, other than I woke up one day, and it was there. Maybe somebody drew on my nose or something.
i've honestly been hearing a lot of nice things about it in the past month or so around superstars' release, it's been a surprise but a very welcome one ! i will always defend that it had some really amazing boards especially the train.

...how can someone not enjoy Mario Party 3? It's probably the most creative out of the three. While it is a nightmare to complete, you only really need to complete the story mode once to unlock everything in the game. The boards are some of the most consistently good between all the original boards, the minigames are fun and without recycling unlike 2 which is mostly 1's best minigames with a coat of new paint and the Duel mode, while not something to pop out everytime, is a fun little experience on one against one, with strategies and randomness making a nice mix. It may not be as memorable as 2, but, at least for me, it's the best out of the 3.
Mario Party 3 is my favorite in the series. Duel mode was also such a cool addition that changed up the game. I absolutely loved it! But I also played with my brother and friends over the course of years. Lol I can’t imagine the grind if it was done in such a short manner.
I hope that at some point in the future, Superstars would add DLC, not only for new boards, but alternate outfits for the characters, like back in 2. I would love to see Daisy, Waluigi, Birdo, and Rosalina dress up in Space, Mystery, Cowboy, Mage, and Pirate Outfits.
@@Tast3Th3Pain6ow Yeah it's called a post-release roadmap. Pretty much every game needs to have them. But also it's a fairly shallow package with 5 boards from 18 to choose from, so the content is pretty lacking in terms of what they can pull from so DLC sooner than later would be critical so you don't repeat the mistakes of Super Mario Party
I actually _did_ fall for the "Gold Mountain" lie, and was so frustrated when I realized it wasn't true... but you know what? Despite that, MP3 is still my favorite of the bunch! The amount of strategy you can implement is unparalleled in the series, yet the chaos is in no way lessened!
Agree! MP3 is the meta of living room-multiplayers. Insanely fun! It just got little to none attention because of it release date, being one of the final installments on the N64. The game is unmatched when it comes to items (most variables AND you can hold 3 of them!). Mario Party 2 is the casual fans favorite mario party-game.
I was just thinking about this the other day. Outside of playing the maps, Mario party 1 isn't even necessary to play. So then it's a toss up between 2 and 3. I really like the costume gimmick in 2 but I'm most nostalgic for the mini games in 3, plus of course the addition of waluigi and daisy. Eatsa pizza is king in my brother's and my opinion. He was always waluigi and I was always wario and that hasn't changed in 20 years
Mario Party DS definitely feels more like a "completionist" experience than any of these. Still risks being repetitive but it IS one of the best Mario Party games anyhow!
The reason I feel some people hate these games is because they don't play them properly. Mario party isn't supposed to be a grind game its supposed to last a long time and be a game you just play with friends when you want. Mario party 1 has a special place in my heart because I played it with friends more than any other game. Meanwhile mario party 3 is definitely the best MP game objectively.
13:06 Actually, they brought back Tug of War in Mario Party Superstars virtually unchanged. The only thing added was a warning label not to use the palms of your hands.
They did change how rotation works though. Instead of amount of rotations, its rotation based on rythem. So you don't need to rotate very fast at all to beat even master level computers and you'll often beat players that rotate fast.
And after playing both Super Mario Party & Mario Party Suparstars on my Switch. I really want to play the original three, even the third on either actual N64 hardware or Switch Online.
Mario Party 3 will always be my favorite! I played the story mode with every single character, and absolutely LOVE the duel maps! Miracle star isn't too terrible once you realize you can save scum your way through!
Can we have a special Tedd appreciation episode? He is part of the team and we all know it's a bit, I just want to see the guy having his hard work appreciated, he deserves at least a pat on the back
Man this just feels like Spyro 3 all over again. Mario Party 3, in my opinion, is the best of the N64 games and might possible be the best in the series.
It isn't forgotten though. If anything, the first game is the one nobody talks about save for some of its boards every now and then. And even with all that, many people consider the later games to have better versions than the ones in the first game.
I will not tolerate all of this Mario Party 1 slander. I still play it and I’m 26yrs old and it’s still so much fun. All of my favorite mini games are in it
Once again Jirard finds himself having to play games in a way the developers never intended and then comes away with a negative opinion because, turns out, doing that isn’t fun. Mario Party 3 is great, both because it has great mini games, fantastic boards, and refined item mechanics, and because it’s Story Mode is about as good of a single player experience as Mario Party has ever provided… but of course you wouldn’t realize that if you spend most of your time replaying that story mode over and over again for high ranks. It’s a fun one and done, “Oh cute story, and oh hey two unlockable boards and some secret mini games” type of thing. Also Duel Boards and Game Guy both rock and I will fight anyone who disagrees.
My biggest girpe of MP3 is the themeing of the boards. They are by far the worst of the trilogy. It's litterly... Snowland, Forest, Desert, Ocean, Cavern, Island. While Waluigi island is great... the board's designs felt abit dull.. but.. the mechanics of the boards were top notch. (Cept the ocean one, I hated those happening spaces) If MP3 had the themeing of MP1 or MP2... it would by far be the best MP on N64 no questions asked. Imagine the board design of 3.. with the themeing/costumes of 2 and the personality linked for MP1. Mario's Batlte Fort. (Knights) Luigi's Fire City (Firemen) Peach's Milk Farm (Farmers) Wario's Deep Sea Treasure Hunt (Divers) Donkey Kong's Ski Mountain (Winter/Skying) Daisy's Desert Tomb (Egyptian?Explorer? Im going egyptian) Waluigi's Island (No outfits!)
Agreed. I always liked the N64 Mario party games, but Mario party 3 was always my favorite. So hearing him lash out on the games because he chose to grind all of them back to back by himself was pretty annoying to listen to. Additionally, for those that haven't played the first three games but watch his content might take what he says to heart and think that the first three games are bad and boring, which is far from the truth.
Like, I wonder if he should try to complete games in parallel, some are one-and-dones like some arcadey games, some are repetitve because they are meant to be done in between other games...rushing completion is like rushing development, it's not gonna show its full potential.
My favorite has always been MP3, so it kinda hurt me when Jirard said it deserved to be forgotten. I even though the dual mode maps were a great addition to the game, as I had a lot of fun playing them. I would never try to complete the game though. Farthest I went was unlocking all the minigames and doing the Game Guy challenge.
I feel like Mario Party 1 got the short end of the stick because the only real single player element was Mini-Game Island, everything else was meant to be collected as you played with other people with Bowsers Magma Mountain and The Eternal Star being the real completion bonus as they were more maps to play.
Hearing you talk about the single player stuff for these 3 games really brings me back to the summers of my grade school and junior high years. See I had friends and stuff and we actually liked to play Mario party together... but I was the morning bird among us and nobody else got up early. Plus sometimes I would beg to wait until the evening before my mom would let my friends come over (unless I took my cartridge somewhere else). So I used to spend a lot of mornings by myself playing the solo modes just to unlock stuff mostly or just to try to feel the joy of my friends being there when they weren't. This really took me back. Thank you.
I can't help but think that doing the review in a period of time when the Party game can't be done in multiplayer, or as a collab, unfairly coloured your opinion.
Mario Party is an underrated franchise to say the least, i think what hurts it is the lack of Solo Play, sometimes there's no one to play with, especially nowadays with the Pandemic about, we need quality Single Player to go along with the MP.
You're 100% trippin. Slotcar Derby is easy af. You're too concerned about your place based on positioning but fail to realize that because certain parts of the track differ, you may appear close hut actually be seconds ahead. For instance. If you're at the top lane of the bottom arc and somebody is on the bottom lane right below you, it may seem that you're neck and neck but you're actually ahead. They must slow down to make the sharp turn and once they circle to the top, you have the short path and they have the long path. You're literally seconds ahead of them. Computer players also wipe out all the time.
That's not the problem. His problem is that sometimes he spins out without warning or that he can only go so fast without spinning out, and that leaves him moving too slowly. I have this exact same problem.
@@ethnictendo our brains just work differently I suppose. I'm definitely not misremembering and I don't think you're lying about your struggles. I owned this when it first came out so I was about 13. This was one of the easier games. I don't even remember any hard games tbh. I'd have to look.
@@dreddscott3873 I've been playing this game since I was at least four years old, and I still have the game and a working console. So yeah, if anyone is misremembering anything, it's most likely to be you. I'm not saying you are, I'm saying this is the most likely explanation.
Mario Party 3 deserves to be forgotten?? That's got to be the most blasphemous thing said on this channel to date. We're still playing Mario Party 3 over here since the day it came out!
easiest way to complete them: play though an entire campaign, and on last turn, switch the computer players to players. And swap controller inputs to play for the computers, then all the coins and stars collected go towards completion instead of just player 1.
I think my max there was 8. I do remember doing a 50 turn game and set all players to hard CPU, at the end of the game most of them had about 15 stars, so there was a good collection at the bank that day.
"Mario Party 3 deserves to be forgotten" No it absolutely doesn't! (Yes, the duel mode does, but that doesn't make the rest any worse) I think Mario Party 3 is the best multiplayer experience the series has to offer. I know everyone praises 2 more than 3, but I'm such a huge fan of some of the changes they made in the third. The biggest thing that makes 3 better than 2 for me is the fact that you can hold three items. That goes a long way for more interesting strategies. Mario Party 4 has this as well, but what absolutely ruins 4 for me are the mega and mini mushrooms. 3 is also the only one, as far as I know, that has paths that lead to a dead end, making you walk back the way you came. This makes for interesting strategy because you can use them in order to waste steps, which makes it possible to further strategize where you land with your roll. Yes, it has some weird mini-games, but I think the overall experience of the boards are better than 1, 2 and every newer entry.
Idk, i prefer mp2 but as someone who is in an mp community mp3 is considered the favorite. Mostly because of it having the best strategy and usage of items. Also good minigames
Of the three in this video, 3 felt more of an "completionist" experience due it actually having a story mode, not to mention attempting to get S-Ranks across all boards as well as "playing" all of the mini games for it to appear in the library
My alt account here is Typhloquil and I'm one of the few who did a marathon run speedrun of All Face Statues in MP3. It's absolutely one of the most grueling things you can do casually in Mario Party, let alone through speedrun, so good job getting through dude.
It’s been awhile since I made this request. Please consider Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling. If you’re going to complete indie games in the future then this masterpiece shouldn’t be overlooked.
We still have a picture of my brother and I unwrapping the original Mario Party at our birthday at the skating rink. Still fun to play with my family 20 years later, we are always down to a game of Mario Party. 🤗
If Donkey Kong was the first game to feature Mario, does that mean by extension Mario is a Donkey Character and this game should be called Donkey Kong Party?
Can't wait to see the Mario party advance completionist video, thats gonna be real interesting as it's a Mario party game designed with single player in mind
The whole "Mario Party is not fun by yourself" thing is one of the biggest reasons I love Mario Party DS so much. While it's still at its best with friends, it's Story Mode is still very enjoyable imo, giving it a single player experience that's far better then any of the other Mario Party games I've played.
Mario party 2 was some of the best times with my family as a kid. Good times. I was actually curious if u have already my bad but could u complete final fantasy 3 aka 6 for snes. With your completionist skills im curious on how quickly u could 100% complete it. I feel like u could review and complete it the best.
Uh if he ever reviews ff6 he will retire the next week. He said that DKC2 will be his last review and ff6 will be second to last if you didn't know this is like vintage completionist info so I guarantee you it'll happen but hopefully when he's ready to hang his hat
While 2 is historically my favorite perhaps because of nostalgia, 3 might be a better game. I really wish 3 would've been released on virtual console because I honestly forget how the boards felt. I remember great mini games and the coop mode was so fun and different. 1 had some great mini games that we probably won't see again either. I really wish they would release the original games along side the re-releases. I love the new remix, but not everything made the cut.
@@LuffyMcDuck Not according to all the lists I can find. I'm sure there is a way to emulate it, but it's not available to purchase anymore aside from the cart.
It looks so crunchy 😭 these games were such a huge part of my childhood. Me and my brother played them all the time. I really need to revisit these. WE NEED MARIO PARTY SUPERSTARS DLC
I haven't watched a Completionist video in quite some time but I gotta say, damn your production value is fucking fantastic. It's as good as watching a TV show. Congratulations on your staff and on you Jirard for keeping up this long running, probably exhausting, series and making it better and better as time goes on. Your fantastic and keep up the good work. I'm glad to know that some things from my childhood only got better as opposed to worse, like the rest of the world is.
"Each one of you roll a six sided dice number one through ten..." Not gonna lie, I knew that this statement was true, but DANG if my brain didn't overheat for a second trying to make the math work out. Good episode. That intro makes me smile every time.
I remember my time completing Mario Party 2 & 8 in the past. And after having loads of fun with Super Mario Party, I'm more than ready to have Mario Party Superstars. Let's see if you'll complete all the rest of the main home console Mario Parties in the future soon.
I have many fond memories playing the first three Mario Parties and Super Smash Brothers with my cousins growing up. They had N64 and I had a Playstation, so whenever I went to their house for sleepovers we'd play the N64, and every one in a while I would bring my PS1 and show them RPGs like FF7 and Tactics Ogre. Good memories. Video games really brought us together through some rough times growing up
Man.. I honestly thought that 3 switched things up enough to keep the series feeling fresh (or as fresh as you can for a party game series). Replayed it with friends, during the past 5 years, and we had a blast with it, despite getting clobbered by hard mode DK.
The first three Mario parties hold a special place in my heart. I would beat the entire first Mario party game in its entirety and them start over to get that satisfaction of 100%ing it once again
"Nobody plays Monopoly by themselves" I honestly needed to hear that quote because I couldn't understand why Jirard didn't enjoy playing these games single player. I still play Mario Party 2 by myself to this day just because I enjoy it that much, but I also will fire up my SNES copy of Monopoly for the same reason. The single player in these games honestly was really nice from an introverts perspective.
I played a lot of 2 as a kid, all by myself, and it was fun. But finally at age 24, I managed to play with some friends irl, and there's no comparing the two. I'm so glad to have made a friend as good as this one, because he brought his friends to the party. It's like Batman's line to the Flash in Justice League, only instead of _Save _*_one_*_ person._ it's _Befriend _*_one_*_ person._

I feel like Mario Party 1 got the short end of the stick because the only real single player element was Mini-Game Island, everything else was meant to be collected as you played with other people with Bowsers Magma Mountain and The Eternal Star being the real completion bonus as they were more maps to play.
Hearing you talk about the single player stuff for these 3 games really brings me back to the summers of my grade school and junior high years. See I had friends and stuff and we actually liked to play Mario party together... but I was the morning bird among us and nobody else got up early. Plus sometimes I would beg to wait until the evening before my mom would let my friends come over (unless I took my cartridge somewhere else). So I used to spend a lot of mornings by myself playing the solo modes just to unlock stuff mostly or just to try to feel the joy of my friends being there when they weren't. This really took me back. Thank you.
I can't help but think that doing the review in a period of time when the Party game can't be done in multiplayer, or as a collab, unfairly coloured your opinion.
I agree. Mario Party wasn’t really remembered for its solo mode campaign, like… ever. It was never about that.
Mario Party is an underrated franchise to say the least, i think what hurts it is the lack of Solo Play, sometimes there's no one to play with, especially nowadays with the Pandemic about, we need quality Single Player to go along with the MP.
How the heck can someone dislike MP3's duel mode? That's literally the best part of the game. D:
you can't argue with the lugmilord the n64 god
If you're looking for a good Solo Mario Party Experience try playing Mario Party DS 👀
I want to play on a TV not a tiny screen...
@@SuperPeterok Have you heard about this thing called Wii U Virtual Console?
@@ilan_profile yes but I don't have a Wiiu
@@SuperPeterok Theres also 🤫Emulation🤫
Mario party 3 is without a doubt the best mario party.
Play it with friends and You've got the best time of your life.
"So I got together with some friends and Ted"
"Just sitting next to some people whose company I enjoy (and Ted)"
ouch.
The amount of work out into your videos is insane
Alone, its understandable. But with friends, love 2 and 3 the best.
Referring to Mario Party 3 as "The Ugly", I just have three words...
How dare you.
You're 100% trippin. Slotcar Derby is easy af. You're too concerned about your place based on positioning but fail to realize that because certain parts of the track differ, you may appear close hut actually be seconds ahead.
For instance. If you're at the top lane of the bottom arc and somebody is on the bottom lane right below you, it may seem that you're neck and neck but you're actually ahead. They must slow down to make the sharp turn and once they circle to the top, you have the short path and they have the long path. You're literally seconds ahead of them. Computer players also wipe out all the time.
That's not the problem. His problem is that sometimes he spins out without warning or that he can only go so fast without spinning out, and that leaves him moving too slowly. I have this exact same problem.
@@ethnictendo sounds like you don't know how to play the game very well. The mechanics are fine. The problem is the person holding the controller.
@@dreddscott3873 No, I'm pretty good at controlling my speed, I've practiced a lot. It's just bad.
@@ethnictendo our brains just work differently I suppose. I'm definitely not misremembering and I don't think you're lying about your struggles. I owned this when it first came out so I was about 13. This was one of the easier games. I don't even remember any hard games tbh. I'd have to look.
@@dreddscott3873 I've been playing this game since I was at least four years old, and I still have the game and a working console. So yeah, if anyone is misremembering anything, it's most likely to be you. I'm not saying you are, I'm saying this is the most likely explanation.
The whole trilogy is great, but _Mario Party 2_ is one of my favorite games of all time! Also, first time seing the new intro, love it!
I don't like the intro
@@SuperPeterok everyone has their taste
@@Wonker_ old one was better
@@SuperPeterok yes mr cranky kong
@@Wonker_ you young whippersnapper! Back in my day I could pass Mario Party 2 in 1 hour no continues!
Mario Party 3 deserves to be forgotten?? That's got to be the most blasphemous thing said on this channel to date. We're still playing Mario Party 3 over here since the day it came out!
easiest way to complete them: play though an entire campaign, and on last turn, switch the computer players to players. And swap controller inputs to play for the computers, then all the coins and stars collected go towards completion instead of just player 1.
Trying to complete Mario party 3 sounds terrible but honestly Mario party 3 is the absolutely best of those 3 imo. Those mini games were amazing
“I got some friends, and Ted, together…..” 😂😂 that really got me!!
"Bowser has become something scarier than ever before, a COMMUNIST!"
-The Completionist, 2021
I remember one time I got 10 stars in Mario party 1 on Wario’s battle canyon, and I felt like a god!
I think my max there was 8. I do remember doing a 50 turn game and set all players to hard CPU, at the end of the game most of them had about 15 stars, so there was a good collection at the bank that day.
"Mario Party 3 deserves to be forgotten"
No it absolutely doesn't! (Yes, the duel mode does, but that doesn't make the rest any worse)
I think Mario Party 3 is the best multiplayer experience the series has to offer. I know everyone praises 2 more than 3, but I'm such a huge fan of some of the changes they made in the third. The biggest thing that makes 3 better than 2 for me is the fact that you can hold three items. That goes a long way for more interesting strategies. Mario Party 4 has this as well, but what absolutely ruins 4 for me are the mega and mini mushrooms.
3 is also the only one, as far as I know, that has paths that lead to a dead end, making you walk back the way you came. This makes for interesting strategy because you can use them in order to waste steps, which makes it possible to further strategize where you land with your roll.
Yes, it has some weird mini-games, but I think the overall experience of the boards are better than 1, 2 and every newer entry.
Idk, i prefer mp2 but as someone who is in an mp community mp3 is considered the favorite.
Mostly because of it having the best strategy and usage of items. Also good minigames
Of the three in this video, 3 felt more of an "completionist" experience due it actually having a story mode, not to mention attempting to get S-Ranks across all boards as well as "playing" all of the mini games for it to appear in the library
The 10th Anniversary intro is so good
I love Mario party. Just wish I had friends to play with me.
My alt account here is Typhloquil and I'm one of the few who did a marathon run speedrun of All Face Statues in MP3. It's absolutely one of the most grueling things you can do casually in Mario Party, let alone through speedrun, so good job getting through dude.
I had Mario Party 2, I played it by myself a lot. I stinkin loved it, especially the “story”
It’s been awhile since I made this request. Please consider Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling. If you’re going to complete indie games in the future then this masterpiece shouldn’t be overlooked.
5:28 A six sided die numbered one through 10... this confused me so much as a child.
We still have a picture of my brother and I unwrapping the original Mario Party at our birthday at the skating rink. Still fun to play with my family 20 years later, we are always down to a game of Mario Party. 🤗
If Donkey Kong was the first game to feature Mario, does that mean by extension Mario is a Donkey Character and this game should be called Donkey Kong Party?
Can't wait to see the Mario party advance completionist video, thats gonna be real interesting as it's a Mario party game designed with single player in mind
The whole "Mario Party is not fun by yourself" thing is one of the biggest reasons I love Mario Party DS so much. While it's still at its best with friends, it's Story Mode is still very enjoyable imo, giving it a single player experience that's far better then any of the other Mario Party games I've played.
Mario party 2 was some of the best times with my family as a kid. Good times. I was actually curious if u have already my bad but could u complete final fantasy 3 aka 6 for snes. With your completionist skills im curious on how quickly u could 100% complete it. I feel like u could review and complete it the best.
Uh if he ever reviews ff6 he will retire the next week. He said that DKC2 will be his last review and ff6 will be second to last if you didn't know this is like vintage completionist info so I guarantee you it'll happen but hopefully when he's ready to hang his hat
Wow I can't believe he showed *SNOWBOARD KIDS*. I haven't seen that game in forever and I still have a copy somewhere 😃
Ah, Mario Party.
Jeff Gerstmann's "Favorite" series. Lol
While 2 is historically my favorite perhaps because of nostalgia, 3 might be a better game. I really wish 3 would've been released on virtual console because I honestly forget how the boards felt. I remember great mini games and the coop mode was so fun and different. 1 had some great mini games that we probably won't see again either. I really wish they would release the original games along side the re-releases. I love the new remix, but not everything made the cut.
3 was released on Wii U right? Shame it missed the Wii release.
@@LuffyMcDuck Not according to all the lists I can find. I'm sure there is a way to emulate it, but it's not available to purchase anymore aside from the cart.
Well they brought back tug o war and castaways so….
Jirard's beard is looking particularly thick, must be the winter coat coming in!
It looks so crunchy 😭 these games were such a huge part of my childhood. Me and my brother played them all the time. I really need to revisit these.
WE NEED MARIO PARTY SUPERSTARS DLC
I haven't watched a Completionist video in quite some time but I gotta say, damn your production value is fucking fantastic. It's as good as watching a TV show. Congratulations on your staff and on you Jirard for keeping up this long running, probably exhausting, series and making it better and better as time goes on. Your fantastic and keep up the good work. I'm glad to know that some things from my childhood only got better as opposed to worse, like the rest of the world is.
Mario Party 3 isn't forgettable bro its the best one on N64 😭
but great video tho
Mario Party 3 is still my favorite game of all my life.
Mario party is ingrained in my body, litterly! The button controls are carved into my brain!
"Nintendo would never use [control stick spinning] ever again." Oh ignorant Beardman...
"Each one of you roll a six sided dice number one through ten..." Not gonna lie, I knew that this statement was true, but DANG if my brain didn't overheat for a second trying to make the math work out.
Good episode. That intro makes me smile every time.
19:19 This was my first Mario Party game. It was a chance encounter at Mcdonald's in the playplace back then. I found it existed in a player's guide.
It was *Chance Time,* huh?
I remember my time completing Mario Party 2 & 8 in the past.
And after having loads of fun with Super Mario Party, I'm more than ready to have Mario Party Superstars.
Let's see if you'll complete all the rest of the main home console Mario Parties in the future soon.
That intro gave me goosebumps
Oh man seeing Crash Bash again for a second there made me feel real good. I wish they rebooted or remastered that game. Just bring it back...
Jirard: Mario Party Games aren’t ment to be play alone
Mario Party Advance: Am I’m A Joke To You?
Yes
Yes. That game is a joke to everyone. Lol
Superstars is amazing. My favorite still is MP6
I have many fond memories playing the first three Mario Parties and Super Smash Brothers with my cousins growing up. They had N64 and I had a Playstation, so whenever I went to their house for sleepovers we'd play the N64, and every one in a while I would bring my PS1 and show them RPGs like FF7 and Tactics Ogre. Good memories. Video games really brought us together through some rough times growing up
I had to play this game by myself back then. No one else wanted to play. I wanted to play against my friend's mom as she was unstoppable.
Mario Party 3 deserves to be forgotten because of its 100% completion? Seriously? And Duel mode is fire fym
Marty party 3's 1 v 1 mode is underrated IMO
Man.. I honestly thought that 3 switched things up enough to keep the series feeling fresh (or as fresh as you can for a party game series). Replayed it with friends, during the past 5 years, and we had a blast with it, despite getting clobbered by hard mode DK.
"And Ted" killed me! 🤣👍🏻
The real superstars were the friends we made along the way
Mario party series is fun on n64 is classic
HOLY SHIT nice intro there! I loved the Mario Party series, glad you had a better time with friends.
The first three Mario parties hold a special place in my heart. I would beat the entire first Mario party game in its entirety and them start over to get that satisfaction of 100%ing it once again
.... I actually did most of this as a kid and I still have a ton of nostalgia for them, especially 3. How lame was I when I was younger? Lol
Truly the friends make games like Mario Party amazing.
13:05 “because of this and a lawsuit, they never used these controls again.” Except when they brought those awful mini games back in Superstars
"Nobody plays Monopoly by themselves" I honestly needed to hear that quote because I couldn't understand why Jirard didn't enjoy playing these games single player. I still play Mario Party 2 by myself to this day just because I enjoy it that much, but I also will fire up my SNES copy of Monopoly for the same reason. The single player in these games honestly was really nice from an introverts perspective.
"We got some friends, and ted.." omg I almost cried!
I played a lot of 2 as a kid, all by myself, and it was fun. But finally at age 24, I managed to play with some friends irl, and there's no comparing the two. I'm so glad to have made a friend as good as this one, because he brought his friends to the party.
It's like Batman's line to the Flash in Justice League, only instead of _Save _*_one_*_ person._ it's _Befriend _*_one_*_ person._
You gotta do the GameCube mario parties next
