Mario Party Point

Mario Party Points, as the name implies, are points that players can gain in the game Mario Party DS, Mario Party 9 and Mario Party: Island Tour. There are many ways to gain Mario Party Points, and they are rewarded for almost every aspect of the game. For example, the player may gain Mario Party Points by moving through spaces. Mario Party Points are used to achieve badges and Character Figures seen at the Gallery in Mario Party DS. When reaching a certain amount of points, the player may win one of these prizes.
