Really impressed they managed to fit this on a DS. Also why do DS and 3DS Mario games always have story modes on handhelds like this or Mario & Sonic? Oh well?
Somehow better than 8
The only childhood memory I have of this game was walking barefoot at night outside my porch playing the Kamek level where you shoot flying books.
This is the first real portable Mario party game, and for what it's worth this game carries over all the traits of the original quite well. Each of the boards are fun and varied, the minigames are diverse and interesting, and there are a lot of modes to play through both by yourself and with friends. The best part about this game is that you only really need one copy of the game to play with as you can send download codes to your friends so that they can play on the board with you.
With that said, this is still a Mario Party game, so if you are not a fan of these kinds of games then you won't get much out of this. Other than that, this is easily one of the better titles in the franchise.

This game forced me to learn how to button mash (index finger, not thumb). Also, ztars are pretty funny. When I went through my mario-obsessed phase as a kid I used to fantasize about making an EPIC mario game where you take down the evil Ztar Lord.
ningun juego me ha dado mas horas de entretenimiento
Mario Party DS is the first Mario Party game I've enjoyed enough to play singleplayer and I loved every second of it. There's so much charm in this game, especially in the story mode which has a cute storyboard-like art style to tell a narrative between levels.
The boards were relatively simple and fun, nothing too complex like I've seen in other entries of the game but they have enough going on to make them unique and stand apart from one another. After each board, there is a boss fight you must beat before progressing to the next one, and these are so cool and a nice reward for beating a level; the only one I didn't love was the last one which felt a bit underwhelming.
I recommend this game to anyone who has yet to give the series a try. A series with as many entries as Mario Party can be quite overwhelming, especially when hearing how hit or miss they are but this one seems to be a great place to start.
