      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.

      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.

  • @Specter053
    @Specter053 2 года назад +219

    ...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.

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 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.

    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.

    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.

    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)

      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.

    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.
