'''Orbs''' (known as '''capsules''' in Japanese and in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'') are special items found in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]]. [[Hex]]es from ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' are similar, in that they can be laid down on [[space (Mario Party series)|space]]s. The design of the orbs is based on that of ''{{wp|gashapon}}'' capsules. The orbs in ''Mario Party 5'' are also obtained similarly to a ''gashapon'' dispenser where the player can receive a random capsule from the machine.
'''Orbs''' (known as '''Capsules''' in ''Mario Party 5'') are special items found in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]], in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', and ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. However, in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', they are replaced by [[Candy (Mario Party 8)|Candy]], which are used by a player only on him- or herself. [[Hex]]es from ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' are similar, in that they can be laid down on spaces.


==History==
== Capsules ==
===''Mario Party 5''===
Capsules are seen in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''. Players receive Capsules from [[Capsule Dispenser]]s for free. Capsules are never obtained through a purchase. A player may use the Capsule on him- or herself for a certain number of coins, and consequences will take effect immediately. For example, a player can use a [[Mushroom Capsule]] for five coins, then immediately roll two Dice Blocks. Players can also use Capsules on themselves even if the effects would be negative. A player can also throw a Capsule up to ten spaces ahead, where the space will become a [[Capsule Space]]. Thereafter, any player landing on that space will be subjected to the effect. If a player did not wish to spend five coins to use the Mushroom Capsule, he could throw it onto a space ahead of him and hope to land on it. As Capsules cannot be thrown backwards, there is always a certain risk in placing one on the board.

As capsules cannot be thrown backwards, there is always a certain risk in placing one on the [[board (Mario Party series)|board]]. If used on a player, the capsule will cost a certain number of coins to activate, ranging from 5 to 20 in most cases.
If used on a player, the capsule makes effect to cost a amount of coins.


===''Mario Party 6'' / ''Mario Party 7''===
== Orbs ==
Orbs are available in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Specific Orbs can be purchased from an [[Orb hut]], and random ones can be obtained from [[Orb Space]]s for free whenever a player passes one. Some Orbs, such as the [[Mushroom Orb]], can be used on the player, always for free. Some Orbs, such as the [[Spear Guy Orb]], can be thrown onto a space to create a [[Character Space]]. Orbs can be thrown up to five spaces ahead or backward. Unlike with a Capsule Space, a character is immune to the negative effects of the spaces they (or their teammates) create; instead, they earn five coins for landing on them. Some Orbs, such as the [[Zap Orb]], can be thrown onto a space to create a [[Roadblock]]. Roadblocks affect any player who ''passes'' by the space (not just those who land on it), and the effects occur immediately, though, unlike other Character Spaces, the space will revert to normal after activating once. Players are immune to the effects of Roadblocks they place.
