Even with the new ones out, Mario Party 4 still takes the cake as the best.

Pros:
Booksquirm. You'll see.
A good variety of fun minigames.

Cons:
Boardgame is still slow paced and not that much fun.

Mario Party 4 can be seen as primarily a showpiece to the Gamecube, and the game sticks to this. The Gamecube is the best for multiplayer party games, and follows with an introduction to changes from the N64 to the Gamecube; However, the lack of Items is prevalent to those who have played the later mario parties. The games items also lack usefulness. The mini mushroom can allow you to explore a different section of the board, but rarely is there a use for it. The positive about this game is the innovative minigames, which can be fun and challenging. Also this game does sport a high replayability even with the single player story mode, which you will play over and over again. All in all, I liked this game. It shows the fun aspects of the Gamecube and is alot of fun single or multiplayer. Call up a friend and play this one, just don't spend alot of money on this bargain bin find.

this game is very fun and I would reccomend this over party 8. (see my review on party 8 for Wii) even though it's only half-way right now it was good. BUT, they could've done a lot more with it.
I know you've probably seen this A-Hundred times, but.......

Pros:
awesome multiplayer, fun Mini-Games, cool extras, thwomp's & whomp's Mini-Games, CPU difficulty settings, handicap setting.

cons:
only 5 levels, not very many Mini-Games, nothing good to unlock, 1 player mode is pointless, only 8 characters, VERY slow paced, Graphics are'nt too good, & EXTREMELEY repetitive.

My other family members enjoyed this much more than i did. this game has little to no replay value, unless you wait 23 1/2 years.
I "KNOW" they could've done better 'cause look at party 7, it has way more stuff & the graphics are as good as sonic heroes! what's their excuse? "GameCube disc advancements?! I don't think so! they were obviously saving their money for a game that most of the people didn't even like! what nintendo (notice I did'nt capitalize the "N" in nintendo?) needs to do is buckle down and actually say "what do the people want? NOT "How much money can we make?"! but other than all that politician like stuff i just said, this game is good and i would reccomend it over party 8.

I forgot to say that EVERYONE around me absoluteley loved this game and wanted to give it 9s & 10s. ( Look for more reviews by the biggest "Loozur" in town! )
