Fun Bazaar

The Fun Bazaar is one of the many tents found in Mario Party 8. Here characters can spend the Carnival Cards that they have collected via playing through the Party Tent, Star Battle Arena, Minigame Tent, and Extras Zone.

Records Board
The Records Board compiles all of the information on the player's best records on minigames, the player's score in Test for the Best and records in the minigames of the Nintendo staff members.

Minigame Wagon
The Minigame Wagon is a place where the player can buy a whole bunch of minigames for 50 Carnival Cards. After completing Star Battle Arena, the player can buy any minigames they didn't unlock yet for 50 Carnival Cards each.

Carnival Wagon
The Carnival Wagon is an area that lets the player view all of the figures of different things that they can purchase in the Surprise Wagon. The player can choose to view the carnival figures either marching in a parade or lined up on a shelf. When marching in a parade, each figure will appear in random order each time, and will do something based on what they are when the player clicks on them. For instance, the Bowser statue spins around and shoots flames out of his mouth.

Surprise Wagon
The Surprise Wagon sells Extras Zone minigames, Test for the Best, staff records, music and sounds, taunting sounds (shake the controller during an opponent's turn to taunt), staff credits, and carnival figures.

Carnival Calliope
The Carnival Calliope is the place where the player can go to listen to music and sounds that they have purchased from the surprise wagon. It plays all music and sounds from the entire game; however, they must be bought at the Surprise Wagon for 30 Carnival Cards each.

Staff Credits
The Staff Credits booth will show all of the credits of the game to the player when they are purchased at the Surprise Wagon for 100 Carnival Cards, MC Ballyhoo and Big Top will appear and ask if the player if they would like to see the credits.
