*If one of the veteran playable characters wins as the solo player, they will perform one of their small victory poses from the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]]-era ''[[Mario Party (series)|Mario Party]]'' games (with [[Mario]]'s and [[Luigi]]'s being slightly different) instead of the new ones they received in this game. [[Blooper]] and [[Hammer Bro]] will perform a different victory pose as opposed to their normal ones. This is also the case in [[Thrash 'n' Crash]].
