I'm still not 100% on board for this one. Now cooking mama 2, there's a set of minigames I will be picking up quite soon! Too many other games I'm interested in for DS and *gasp* PSP before I pick this up. The only mario party I've ever liked so far is the first one.

The lack of Wifi logo on the box art is a huge, neon 'don't buy me' sign.
Single player looks like it's going to be a REALLY time consuming (do we really need to watch computer's take their turns?) mini game collection.
The only reason to play Mario Party is to have fun with friends.
FACT: It's not a party if you're alone.

This is going to be epic. Why?
You only need one card for the FULL four player mode. And I have DS-playing friends!
Aha! Hooray for friends!

Played the Japanese version of Mario Party DS and I can safely say that this game is actually worth it. The Minigames feel like a normal Mario Party game, the normal boards feel a bit strange given I've only played Mario Party 8 on the Wii, however is quite entertaining and makes good use of the microphone, touchscreen and controls on the DS. And in true Mario Party style, the CPU is bias towards computer controled players. =P

The box art does rule. Get some friends, yo! You are only alone because you feel like you're with people when you're not!

Gotta agree with HellsHammer. Initially it looked like a must-buy, but the lack of wi-fi knocks it down to "might buy someday maybe not we'll see."

Yep, even if I get four people over with DSs...Mario Party is only fun on the big screen with everyone sitting around drinking. This game just isn't meant to be played alone. ...Or completely sober. I tried playing Mario Party alone once, not fun, not fun at all. Hence the name!

It's pretty awesome that you only need ONE CART to play with a group
of friends (who also have a ds).
I'm getting it. My husband and I will save money from having to buy
two games, and we'll still get to play at the same time!!
I think the reason it is not wi-fi is because it would be hard to keep a random person to stay in the game for the entire time, possibly causing problems for the people who did stay to play. I think it's good judgement that Nintendo didn't add wi-fi.

Online isn't everything. It's good to play with friends in person. So it supports multi-card AND single-card multiplayer then? (In case I wanna buy two: one for me, one for a friend)
