 * I counted the spaces on the boards and Sweet Dream is the smallest. Bowsy 19:34 6 December 2006

Cleanup tag
Why has another cleanup tag been issued when there was already one tagging the entire article? I have replaced the mini-game categories with sub-headings in case it was because it was hard to find the mini-game you were looking for. Henchman 2000 19:32, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Minigames
This section is really crufty, and I think it should be removed. Any objections? –The Gr e at Llamasign here 23:50, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Okay, I really see no reason to object, so I guess I'll be bold and remove it now. –The Gr e at Llamasign here 00:11, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

What is that brief, almost non-existent, sentence doing under the heading Minigames. Even the list in your eyes would be better than that! Henchman 2000 19:01, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm not an expert on the subject, but as an outside observer a list of the mini games seems like perfectly reasonable content for this article. - SimonP 02:26, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Ack!! What exactly does this list contribute to the article?? a short paragraph would do so much more. as per WP:CRUFT such information is only interesting to a fan of the game, someone who's never played it is not going to have any interest in such a list, and besides, Wikipedia is not Gamefaqs (someone should add write an essay on this and submit it under Wikipedia is not...). Anyone looking for the specific minigames can go see a game-centric website for such info; it's unencyclopedic. Gene S. Poole  02:34, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Since the article shows Sweet Dream as an example of a board, perhaps one minigame could be chosen as an example as well? For instance, if there was a screenshot of the minigame Coney Island, the blurb could say, "One 4v4 minigame, called Coney Island, has players catch falling scoops of ice cream to have the tallest ice cream cone". 23.228.173.149 (talk) 17:13, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

Neutrality
The list of minigames is from the point of view of the player, instead of the neutral point of view. –Llama mansign here 17:28, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * ahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah! that's hilarious!! :D

Remove the "japanese" name?
"Mario pati faibu" is just a mispronounced version of "Mario party five" and has no meaning in Japanese. Why keep that? 91.86.30.69 (talk) 11:42, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

What is Pokemon World?
I was wondering why there is Pokemon World in that page? Could someone provide information about that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.27.0.251 (talk) 14:48, 15 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Passed per above comments. —Giggy 01:25, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Banana Punch?
Why does "Banana Punch" redirect here? The page doesn't even contain the word "banana" anywhere. 91.105.18.89 (talk) 00:38, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Reception of the soundtrack, etc
GameSpot gave this game a 6.9/10 which implies they've played it before, yet they comment that the soundtrack is "largely recycled from Mario Party 4?" Anyone who's actually played both games know that is absolutely false. Aya Tanaka composed for this game, Ichiro Shimakura for Mario Party 4. Tanaka did not recycle much music at all, and the game has its own unique aural identity. Tanaka feels more laid back, her arrangements are more open/spacious (while Shimakura makes great use of frenetic/frantic melodic lines and drum parts), and she makes excellent use of double bass to impart her own flavor (while Shimakura uses that squelchy fretless electric bass that makes Mario Parties 3 + 4 so uniquely his).

Also, has anyone taken a good peek at the Japanese version of this page? It's long as heck!! OsoBearMan (talk) 19:49, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
