Item Bag: Difference between revisions
Posting my findings. This is how the game's code works.
(I looked into the game's code, and it is FAR stranger than what was described here...) |

In ''Mario Party 3'', Item Bags can be purchased at [[Item Shops]] for 30 coins. When purchased, the Item Bag is immediately used, and the player is allowed to hit it a number of items equal to the amount of room for items they currently have: three hits if the player is carrying no items, two if they are carrying one item, and one if they are carrying two items. Each time the player hits the Item Bag, they will acquire a random item chosen from the items potentially sold by the shop that the Item Bag was purchased from (excluding another Item Bag). If the Item Bag was bought from [[Toad]]'s Trading Post, the Item Bag may also contain one of the rare items: a [[Koopa Kard]], or a [[Barter Box]]. If purchased from [[Baby Bowser]]'s Joint, the Item Bag may contain a rare item: a [[Lucky Charm]]. It is not possible for an Item Bag from either shopkeeper to contain a [[Wacky Watch]]. In this game, the Item Bag is adorned with the face of the shopkeeper it was bought from: Toad's when bought at Toad's Trading Post, or [[Baby Bowser]]'s when bought at Baby Bowser's Joint. | In ''Mario Party 3'', Item Bags can be purchased at [[Item Shops]] for 30 coins.
