I also think the latter is better, for practical reasons. Instead of looking at the MP2 minigames and having to process what type of minigame each is, it would be easier to look at all the 4P minigames and then read which game they're from.

The latter option is also my preferred choice, for consistency, like CrashBash said. But, I would arrange the games so that they appear in the order of type in the 100 Minigames mode (as in, Free-for-All, 1-vs-3, 2-vs-2, etc.). – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 10:58, 14 November 2017 (EST)
So, I assume that we're talking about separating the minigames for its own Minigame page. When that happens, how should the minigames be listed on this page? We can't keep identical information or else the Minigame page would have no reason to exist besides uniformity with other Mario Parties. Any thoughts? [[User:MarioComix|MarioComix]] ([[User talk:MarioComix|talk]]) 20:12, 14 November 2017 (EST)
Aren't the minigames going to be put with their original counterparts? Or is this something else? [[User:Chat Man|Chat Man]] ([[User talk:Chat Man|talk]]) 21:47, 14 November 2017 (EST)
:Other Mario Party games have a dedicated page for their minigames, such as [[List of Mario Party 2 minigames]]. I was under the belief that our discussion on minigame separation would be for a page like that, but for The Top 100. If so, we would have to have either that kind of page and the Minigames section on this page different in some way, or else remove one or the other. (Only have the page and do this page's Minigames section like other Mario Parties, or not have the page at all.) So I was asking for any thoughts on this matter.

::Well, there's also the fact that mini-games seem to be split into "packs", at least in Multiplayer. I've counted the following from a video...
*'''Nintendo 64 Pack''' - Shy Guy Says, Bumper Balls, Dizzy Dancing, Mecha-Marathon and Shell Shocked
*'''GameCube Pack''' - Booksquirm, Coney Island, Pushy Penguins, Catch You Letter and Balloon Busters

*'''Action Pack''' - Hexagon Heat, Mush Pit, Snowball Summit, The Final Countdown and Bumper Bubbles
*'''Skill Pack''' - Trace Race, Leaf Leap, Aim of the Game, Crank to Rank and Soar to Score
*'''Racing Pack''' - Slot Car Derby, Rockin' Raceway, Mario Speedwagons, Paths of Peril and Speeding Bullets
*'''Sports Pack''' - Chip Shot Challenge, Three Throw, Dinger Derby, Triple Jump and Snow Whirled
*'''Brainy Pack''' - Honeycomb Havoc, Roll Call, The Beat Goes On, Strawberry Shortfuse and Jigsaw Jumble
::Those in itself could be worth a mention. [[User:CrashBash|CrashBash]] ([[User talk:CrashBash|talk]]) 10:19, 17 November 2017 (EST)
:There's more packs besides those ones. They are:
*'''Lucky Pack''' - Deck Hands, Pier Pressure, Bowser's Big Blast, Balloon Busters and Hide and Go BOOM!

Those are all the rest! – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 15:26, 17 November 2017 (EST)
:::Those packs definitely deserve a mention somewhere. Who wants to, uh, organize them? {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 15:52, 17 November 2017 (EST)
Now that I'm organizing minigames on how they appear (they should probably be split off into a list of minigames article, the list will be bigger and more comprehensive than all other Mario Party minigame lists), I'm thinking we might need to organize this by pack. Create an article "List of packs in Mario Party: The Top 100", list pack as a header, then list minigames underneath it. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 20:08, 21 November 2017 (EST)
== Party Mode? ==
The game has been released, but I don't own it yet.  I noticed that there is no information about a Party mode on this page, but I remember that it was supposed to have a "turn-based party mode", according to the official website in September.  What happened to that party mode? -{{User:YoshiFlutterJump/sig}} 10:00, 14 November 2017 (EST)
:It's in the Minigame Match mode, where 4 players play on one game board and attempt to get the most Star Balloons, like in Star Rush. – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 10:39, 14 November 2017 (EST)
== "Critical" reception ==
The reception is mixed, making neither critical good, or critical bad. Shouldn't it just be reception? [[User:Chat Man|Chat Man]] ([[User talk:Chat Man|talk]]) 22:45, 19 November 2017 (EST)
:Critical means "by critics." Not "criticized." [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 22:48, 19 November 2017 (EST)
True, but on some pages it just says "Reception". [[User:Chat Man|Chat Man]] ([[User talk:Chat Man|talk]]) 22:51, 19 November 2017 (EST)
:Honestly, I don't think it matters. -{{User:YoshiFlutterJump/sig}} 00:53, 20 November 2017 (EST)
::Reception can both mean critical reception (by professional critics) and sales reception. Sales isn't that well documented though, outside of Japan, so it's rarely documented in the wiki and not much said about it, unless your game is big like Mario Kart or Mario platformers. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 20:05, 21 November 2017 (EST)
== Character descriptions ==
Finally snagged the time to ask this, but the "descriptions" for the characters in this article - shouldn't they be mainly for the character articles themselves? Because the person who put them on this article got it from the official website itself. No doubt that said content should stay in the wiki, but IMO it is more like character article statistic material. --M.

:I've taken inspiration from how ''Mario Party 10'' does it, but honestly, I think it's fine in the article too. I like it more than a simple gallery. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 14:05, 27 November 2017 (EST)
== The Beat Goes On ==
The Jingle Was Not Changed, It Was shortened. I've Heard Both Themes Back To Back. So Please Replace "Changed" With "Shortened" On The Mini Game Audio For The Beat Goes On.--[[User:DTVRocks|DTVRocks]] ([[User talk:DTVRocks|talk]]) 03:12, 29 November 2018 (EST)
:Well if it was shortened, that means it was changed, but yeah it should be more specific. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 05:12, 29 November 2018 (EST)
