A whole new experience
I recently got the new Mario Party Superstars game for the Nintendo Switch and it is nothing short of amazing. This is a great party game and one that is even better with a little bit of cannabis to go along with your gaming experience.
It is the same premise as all the previous Mario Party games. The object is to travel around the game board, collect coins so that you can buy yourself some stars and compete against your friends and family in over 100 different mini games.
The mini games is where this game really shines. They are super creative and a ton of fun. During the mini games, you can compete all each other, team up with a partner or go 3 against 1. In the screenshot above, one person is at the top of the hill controlling an excavator or something and hurls boulders down at the rest of the players as they try and make it up to the top of the hill. This was a pretty fun one and when we played it, I was controlling the excavator and dumped boulders on everyone and flattened anyone that got near the top.
Last night when we played, I tried out the bubblegum that I just started curing. It is in the VERY early stages of its cure, but holy shit balls, this stuff is strong. I loaded up my Volcano with it and took a few puffs from the bag and then I was blasted off into a whole new world.
This stuff allowed me to sit back, focus on the game and have an amazing time. I was a bit worried that it would impair me as I played, but it really made me one with Waluigi as he ran all over the board collecting coins, stars and dominating the mini games.
There are 5 different game boards in this installment of the series, and the one we played on last night was Peach's Birthday Cake. This was such a fun level to play. It was super bright and colorful, had amazing background music that was fun to vibe to and wasn't a massive level that took a million turns to get around the board. On some of the previous boards, it could take forever to get around the board to the star space, but this one was pretty quick, so we all got a bunch of stars.
One thing I really love about gaming while stoned is that I take time to slow down and appreciate all the little things that the devs have taken the time to put into their games. This board really did look like a delicious candy land straight out of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Even when you slid down the cracker slide, there were very subtle crunching sounds. It really felt like I was one of those little characters running around the board and I just wanted to bend over and scoop up some of that icing off the cake and eat it.
One of the funniest mini games was this snowboarding game where you push the buttons in a clockwise pattern. Before each mini game starts, you have a chance to practice the game before it starts. While we were practicing this one, we didn't really make our characters spin that much. My wife and daughter went before I did and I think they may have gotten like a 720 or something, but when I went, I started pushing the buttons as fast as I could in a circle, and my dude started spinning kind of fast, and then I just started mashing them in a circular motion and Waluigi started spinning so fast like a top. I am not even sure how many spins I got, but it was a ridiculous amount of twirling around in the air.
Overall, this game is a ton of fun to play and even better with some weed. The boards are a lot of fun and the mini games can get pretty insane. There are also so many different events and stuff that can really change the game and there really isn't a clear winner until after the bonuses at the end of the game. My wife and I lost against a computer character that had zero stars once the game was finished because they got all the bonus stars at the end.
If you have played Mario Party games in the past and loved them, this is a good one that remakes a lot of the classic boards. If you have never played Mario Party before, you should give this a try because you will have a blast. It is a really good family game to spend some quality time together having a great time,
Dude, I bet you were so damn fried. Mario Switch is already fun, but getting zapped before/during just makes it that much better.
I played the shit out of the last Mario Party, I think it was the first one to come out on Switch. It was amazing but eventually got old since we played it so much. The mini-games became too repetitive.
I forgot they were coming out with this new one that you now are playing. That boulder game reminds me of the old school Mario Party games. I feel like that was definitely one of the old mini-games. I'm all for them remaking some old stuff and mixing it with new.
That cake board is so satisfying to look at. Reminds me of the food world in Mario Odyssey, another great Switch game. That was another thing the Mario Party that I have lacks, boards. I feel like there were only 4 or 5 maybe and one you had to unlock by playing a ton.
Ya, I was pretty high when I was playing it. A lot of the mini games on this one are remakes of old ones and there are some new ones as well. It was fun playing because it reminded me a lot of the old school N64 and GameCube boards and games.
Mario Party definitely plays different while high.... well i guess all games.
i do love play open world and survival games while high.
But Mario Party... this is just too goood. have fun !
Ya, open world games are super fun to play while high. I love exploring the worlds.
Dude Mario has to be the greatest game franchise ever! So let me get your opinion. Nintendo switch, or something else? I think I am certain I will get the switch for my boy, but just curious on your opinion.
That's a tough question. If it is for your son, than I recommend a Switch. The games are great and more kid friendly. The graphics on the other consoles are way better and have a lot more games for adults to enjoy. But I do have all the consoles, so it is hard for me to pick just one.
Even the new Mario Party could be enough for me to get the Switch. I was stupid enough to get Wii U before I knew it would fail. Now I'm trying to hold into it, pretending I don't need anything else.
The Switch is an amazing console. It doesn't compete with the graphics of the newer consoles but the games are a ton of fun and have that classic Nintendo feel.
Cannabis and Mario Party, thats an awesome plan dude, but talking about Mario Party, i think that those games are at the top of "games for playing with your homies" because all the elements that make up Mario Party its like several games in one.
Ya, this is definitely a game to play with friends. My wife and kids are my homies though, so we have a blast whenever we play this one.
I remember when I played in Mario, when I was a child was in 90's.
I played in television game what a gold good times :D
Ya. This game is pretty awesome.
