Balloon Busters

Balloon Busters is a 4-Player Mic minigame in Mario Party 7, and returns in Mario Party: The Top 100.

Introduction
The last player blows into the balloon and runs behind the barrier as the first player steps up to take a turn.

Gameplay
The players must say "Bigger" into the microphone in order to inflate it or "Stop" to end the turn. If players lack a microphone,, when enabled, opens a menu for two options: "Bigger" to inflate the balloon or "Stop" to end the turn.

They can do this up to five times per turn, however they can stop blowing after they've put in at least one breath. If the timer runs out, then the player automatically blows into the balloon as many times as they have remaining. When the balloon gets near bursting, the players will begin to cringe and the character who blows in will run much faster when their turn is over. The winner is the player who had their turn directly before the turn when the balloon burst.

In case of Mario Party: The Top 100, there are 3 rounds, and only one player is knocked out each round. The controls are different - instead of saying "Bigger", one blows on it or presses, and instead of saying "Stop", is pressed. When the balloon bursts, the round is over, the player taking their turn is out, and another balloon inflates, starting a new round. The minigame ends once one player remains; that player is the winner.

Mario Party 7
The balloon explodes, sending the losers flying offscreen. The winner does their victory animation.
