Editing[edit]
Is it okay if I edit the "Mario Party series" section on History of Mario to fix grammar? Dwhitney (talk) 22:39, August 27, 2025 (EDT)
- Yeah you can, feel free to do this. I don't own the article. I'm on a busy schedule, so I'm prone to some mistakes now and then.

THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION EVER!!![edit]
We have only the most substantial and intense question about the recent edit to Mario Party 4... What part, exactly, is the Mourning Dove's call heard at in the intro cutscene? We ask this because we watched the opening cutscene and couldn't pick up on it, and as someones who have lived their whole lives in places particularly dense with Mourning Doves, we feel like we should've been able to pick up on it if their distinctive "coo-ooo! hoo~ hoo~" sound was there. ...Also, yes, we're genuine in asking for a source on this. While we realize this is a very silly thing to ask about, we're also trying to make sure we aren't going nuts because we couldn't hear the bird. ;P

- The very beginning where Mario "skips" into the crowd, you can hear a faint "hoo~ hoo~ hoo~" in the background of the bird call. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9_qOu87-9w you can hear it around 0:14. That being said, I don't know the birdsong accompanying the mourning dove. Doesn't sound like a bird I'm familiar with.

That gosh darn Wario! 😡[edit]
Wario has been installing Mario Kart World on mods on Gamebanana which give him INFINITE Blue Shells and make all other racers penguins! What does he have against penguins? Note that FanOfYoshi has already reported him throwing penguins off the cliff. You can stop this by reporting Wario's use of mods to Nintendo so they can ban him from Nintendo Switch Online.
Conkdor! (T|C) 07:06, September 24, 2025 (EDT)
- I know you're pinning the blame on Wario, but we should not neglect the fact that Waluigi is a well known hacker in the Mushroom Kingdom, so I think Waluigi is just using Wario as a means of distraction. It's really a testament to Waluigi's skill that he could somehow break through all the Switch 2's robust security system AND somehow upload mods on Gamebanana AND trick everyone into thinking Wario was actually smart enough to do this. Too bad Waluigi won't share his secrets, as I think it'll be a great boon to user content generation if the Switch 2 can be hacked like this. As for penguins? Well, Wario lost a game of Romance of the Three Kingdoms 11 to the Mushroom Kingdom faction (Waluigi hacked that game to make Wario playable there, versions of ROTK11 in Mushroom Kingdom do have a Mushroom Kingdom faction playable, fyi). Badly. So he's paying back by throwing the penguins off a cliff, but in the ROTK11 fashion of course (beating them at debate).
- I'm a bit confused why, of all things, Blue Shells? Ice is penguin speciality, they're not getting frozen any time soon by those things.
As for mods, it's not a bannable offense sadly. Nintendo is still trying to figure out how to implement anticheat in their ink shooter game thing, so until then, you have to deal with the Waluigi shenanigans.

- No, no, no.
not
. Plus, you only have to make an account to upload Gamebanana mods.

- Then why didn't you just call it that! Everyone calls it the Spiny Shell where I'm from (Mushroom Kingdom).
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 11:34, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- Nuh uh, no one does. have you ever actually seen someone (apart from you) call it spiny shell?
Conkdor! (T|C) 14:17, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- I mean everyone in the kingdom calls it that. If you just say blue shell, people are going to assume it's the regular blue ones. I suppose the legacy media did a poor job disseminating the terminology in your world.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:17, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- Um, what about the blue shell himself? What does he say when he launches himself at Mario? Spiny shell? Nope, blue shell.
Conkdor! (T|C) 16:31, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- You have to consider that guy is a maniac.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:33, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- He ain't a maniac if he's correct.
Conkdor! (T|C) 16:40, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- Idk screaming "BLUE SHELL" when no one calls it that and going in a seemingly suicidal mission and destroy a part of Rainbow Road. That's not something a normal person would do. Wario and Waluigi blew up a golf stadium. No one takes their opinions seriously.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 16:46, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- Go outside, pull up this image on your phone, and ask a random person walking down your street what it is. THEY WILL SAY BLUE SHELL.
Conkdor! (T|C) 16:50, September 27, 2025 (EDT)
- I asked some Toads on the street. I think I scared off most of them with the picture. The ones that weren't scared off just wanted my autograph. Oh, and all of them were screaming about Spiny Shells. Checkmate.
It's me, Mario! (Talk / Stalk) 17:17, September 27, 2025 (EDT)

Talk page message[edit]
I've noticed a lot of other people doing the same thing I have. I don't apprectiate being singled out. PrincessPeachFan (talk) 19:46, September 28, 2025 (EDT)
- As I mentioned in the comment,[1] there has been an emergent pattern of more light-hearted comments. However, the tone of your vote and your comments were a noted complaint by several users, such as Talk:Hurricane_(move)#Hurricomments and according to complaints from users in our Discord server. Please heed to what I said.

You didn't "thank you" my response to Wario's latest tomfoolery[edit]
I mean, I don't mind it, but Mr. Stinkbug here has been whining and crying non-stop about it. Do something. For instance, take a look at Gallery:Miscellaneous stars and tell me if I got the hang of your organization method from Gallery:Mario (miscellaneous). Pleeeease? -- KOOPA CON CARNE 17:23, November 5, 2025 (EST)
- I admire your inspiration to organize the page. However, I was half-expecting you to organize the Wario page as payback for my insolent forgetfulness.

Question 4 U[edit]
How many videos am I allowed to have on my user page? ˜˜˜˜Sunny12345
- Technically there isn't an established limit but it's better to be choosy about what to showcase, and be mindful that people may browse your userpage. Maybe don't go too much over 5 or 6.

OK, I just got the answer. No more than 6. ˜˜˜˜Sunny12345
Mario Party 4-8 animation ripping[edit]
Hey! I have a question: How do you rip these animations for the characters in Mario Party 4-8? It seems geniunely interesting to me!
Yoshi18 (talk/contribs) 18:23, January 10, 2026 (EST)
- File:Mario (Swim) - Mario Party 5.webp description shows the kinds of hoops I jumped through to make the animation, but you absolutely don't need to convert it to a Garry's Mod compatible asset to use it. What I recommend is you have the game's files and Dolphin Emulator which can extract the game's files. Once you extract your game partition, the real fun begins.
You have several programs:
- Party Studio
- Metanoia
- A modeling program. I've used 3DS Max 2020 (paid program, not cheap, don't recommend) to read the
.daefiles, I think Blender suffices since tutorials call for using Blender anyway. There is a tutorial where you need to use a converter for Blender usage, which I'll provide at the end of my post. - An image editing program that can clean up possible backgrounds, crop the image to content, and export to an image animation format like .gif or .webp is recommended. I used GIMP.
- What you do is you open a file you want through Party Studio, so in Mario's case, there is
mario.binlocated indata/mario.binfrom the game partition. The high poly Mario is found asMESH_mario00.z.hsfinmario.bin - Right click -> archive -> export raw data. Do not export model directly from Party Studio; I believe there will be problems if you do.
- With Metanoia you can open the resulting
z.hsffile and then you export it as a.daefile. This file should then be readable in the modeling programs and it should automatically export textures if you enable that setting. Make sure you export your files to somewhere you can find it and manageable to locate, so I don't recommend putting them on, like, desktop. - If you're able to open it, you can proceed exporting animations from Party Studio. For swimming Mario, I've exported
MOTION_Mario_35.z.hsf. Party Studio also previews animations if you double click on any file with the MOTION_ prefix and open the Animation folder, click onopt_evalSceneand then scroll up and click on yourMESH_file, but the models aren't very lined up with the bones afaik. You can also navigate the model display with WASD keys and mouse buttons). Double click any of theMOTION_files, open the Animations folder, right click onopt_evalSceneand export any of the animation formats your program can open. I've exported.daefiles. - You import the models and animations into your program. In 3DS Max, I first import my
.daemodel, THEN I import the.daeanimation. Before you import animations, however, I do recommending checking your imported model for seams and whatnot that usually result from converted models, which you can fix by either editing normals or merging vertices and applying smoothing IF the model doesn't have smoothing already. I do make sure my scale factors are correct or at least set to default while importing, but idk if this is going to be an applicable problem for anyone new to this. - I haven't done this personally but the final step is to set up how your scene is illuminated (simple ambient lighting controls with minimal shadows is probably best since Mario Party doesn't have particularly advanced lighting), set up your model's angles to see which best fits for upload to MarioWiki, and render out an animation with the program's rendering tools, and make sure you don't have a background enabled. Not sure how reliable your program is at rendering animation out but I personally rendered a sequence of png images I later put into GIMP as separate layers and then exported as a .gif for MarioWiki and tried to find out the best framerate and whatnot.
- If you want to know what each animation describes (there's over 200 animations to parse through), the spreadsheet from the Mario Party Modding Discord server (link to server: https://discord.gg/MNVTGGqGW5) should help. You can find information for the respective games at the bottom part of the spreadsheet.
- You might find this video tutorial by Niment helpful which deals with modding Mario Party 4-8 by importing characters with custom proportions.
