'''''Mario Party''''' is a [[Genre#Party|party game]] released for the [[Nintendo 64]] as the first installment in the titular [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'']] series. Players select one of six ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' characters and move around the board, collecting [[coin]]s and various other items to help themselves or hinder others in their quest to collect [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]]s. Players participate in mini-games after each turn, in which they compete for extra coins. These mini-games vary widely, from free-for-alls to pairs to three-on-ones. They test players' reflexes, puzzle-solving skills, and even luck. Certain mini-games allow players to steal coins from each other, while others grant the winner five coins from their rivals.

To sort things out amongst members of the gang, [[Wario]] theorizes that a Super Star must be strong. [[Donkey Kong]] abruptly agrees, while bragging about his strength. An argument and fight ensue between the two, with [[Luigi]] finding himself quite literally stuck in the middle. It is also suggested that Mario would make a good superstar, or [[Princess Peach]], or even the energetic [[Yoshi]]. | ||
The gang begins to close in on [[Toad]], who jumps and shouts out that he has an idea of what they should do.

Three [[Whomp]]s are guarding the junctions; to pass, a player must pay 10 [[coin]]s. Landing on a [[Happening Space]] triggers a rolling boulder which in turn chases down any players standing in its way to the path near the start of the board. If a player happens to meet [[Bowser]] on this board, they are "awarded" a useless Golden Bowser Statue and are forced to pay him 10 coins. | ||

|align=left|[[Peach's Birthday Cake]] | |align=left|[[Peach's Birthday Cake]] is the smallest map of the ones available in ''Mario Party''. Its main feature is the Flower Lottery, hosted by [[Goomba]], where a player plants a red, blue, yellow, or green seed (at the cost of 10 coins) and grows a flower. Three flowers have a [[Toad]] face, while one flower has a Bowser face on it. After all four seeds are planted, four new ones can be chosen. This is run by a Goomba, who says if a player gets the Bowser face, they will go to Bowser, who will sell him the Bowser Cake, one of Bowser's bogus items, for 20 coins. If a player gets a Toad face, they will go in the direction of the Star. If a player lands on a [[Happening Space]], they have the opportunity to plant a "Strawberry Seed" at the cost of 30 coins, which grows into a [[Piranha Plant]]. Once planted, if another player with stars lands on the Happening Space with the Piranha Plant there, it will steal a Star from that player, and give it to the player that planted it. | ||

|align=left|[[Yoshi's Tropical Island]] | |align=left|[[Yoshi's Tropical Island]] consists of [[Watermelon]] Island, [[Melon|Cantalope]] Island, and a small island in the middle; it was said that many [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshis]] live here, but only two are shown in the middle of the board. A Pink [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] is on the small island and is surrounded by whirlpools, with a Blue Yoshi who cannot do anything about it. Players aim to collect stars to get rid of the whirlpools and reunite the two Yoshis. The [[Happening Space]]s make [[Cheep Cheep#Mario Party|Bubba]] the fish take [[Toad]] to the opposite island, Bowser taking his place. Bowser sells defective [[Bowser's bogus items|Bowser Tube]]s to players for 30 coins. Two [[Thwomp]]s block both ways to the opposite island, and request fees from players if they want to pass. The fee always starts at one coin, but goes up by one coin each time until it reaches the limit of 50 coins to pass. | ||

Players aim to collect stars to stop the feud between the [[Bob-omb Buddy|Bob-omb Buddies]] and the [[Bob-omb]]s. To get around the board, players are placed into cannons and fired to another area; the area they are sent to is determined by a spinning wheel. If a player lands on a [[Happening Space]], the Bob-ombs will switch the directions of the cannons. Bowser's area can only be reached by asking the [[Fly Guy]] in the northeast area to carry the character conversing with him to Bowser for ten [[coin]]s. Bowser also has a cannon in this area to replace his [[Bowser's bogus items|bogus item]]. However, instead of firing at a specific part of the board, Bowser will just fire a character at a random spot. | ||

|align=left|[[Luigi's Engine Room]] | |align=left|[[Luigi's Engine Room]] features an engine in the middle of the room (but actually in the back of the playing board). The main feature is the board-wide system of red and blue doors. One set rises up to block specific paths while the other set goes down to open other paths. The doors switch at the start of every turn, when players land on certain [[Happening Space]]s, or if a robot on the board is paid 20 coins to switch them. ? spaces on steam generators near the engine make steam rise out of the respective generator, propelling players to a higher section. Players that go to Bowser will see his "Make As Many Coins As You Want Mecha" in action. They will get a coin from Bowser, at the cost of 20 coins. No matter where the players go, all paths end in [[Warp Pipe]]s that lead to [[Boo]], who is near the start. | ||

|align=left|[[Mario's Rainbow Castle]] | |align=left|[[Mario's Rainbow Castle]] is placed on clouds with multiple towers and is sky-themed. The main feature of this board is that the location of the Star does not change each time a player receives one. Instead, it is always located on the main tower of the map. Each time a player does receive a Star, however, the tower rotates, revealing [[Bowser]]. When the player reaches the tower while Bowser is there, he charges 40 coins for a [[Ztar]]. Unlike their later appearances, they do not affect the star count, merely serving to waste the 40 coins. The tower can also be rotated by any player landing on a [[Happening Space]]. | ||

|align=left|[[Bowser's Magma Mountain]] | |align=left|[[Bowser's Magma Mountain]] takes place on the summit of a gigantic volcano. The main feature of the board involves various stone heads that offer shortcuts throughout the board for 10 coins. If the player accepts, a roulette block will appear containing either Bowser's face or a Star. If the latter is hit, the player is allowed to take the shortcut. However, if they choose Bowser's face, the player is forced to continue on their original path. Eventually, the player will reach a purple-colored Stone Head, who will offer the same roulette block, except free of charge. This time, however, if the player selects Bowser's Face, they will automatically follow a path directly to Bowser, who will steal 20 coins or a Star (depending on the roulette) from the player. This board is only available if bought for 980 coins and after all other boards are played at least once. If the player lands on a [[Event Space|Happening Space]], Bowser's volcano will erupt, turning all Blue Spaces into Red Spaces. | ||

|align=left|[[Eternal Star]] | |align=left|[[Eternal Star]] is unlocked by collecting 100 Stars and completing all the boards at least once. On this space-themed board, Koopa Troopa is kidnapped at the very beginning of the game by Bowser, and players move around the star using warp stations and must retrieve Stars from seven Baby Bowsers. Upon reaching a Baby Bowser, players must pay their 20 coins and roll higher than him to get a Star. The player's Dice Block can roll 8-10 but Baby Bowser's can roll any number. If the player wins, they get a Star, but if they lose, they lose a Star. In the center of the star is Bowser; upon reaching him, he takes a Star from the player who reached him (or 20 coins if they do not have any Stars) and sends them back to the start and changes the routes of the Warp Machines. If a player lands on any Happening Space, Bowser will send everyone back to start, though the Warp Machine routes remain unchanged. | ||

*''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'': The opening theme sounds similar to the [[Mario Bros.' House|Mario's Pad]] theme.

*''[[Super Mario 64]]'': Peach's Birthday Cake is based on Princess Peach's letter that she baked a cake for Mario, and the layout of the board and background surrounding it are based on the photograph after the credits. Also, Mario's Rainbow Castle board is based on the secret course [[Tower of the Wing Cap]], and the [[Wing]] Cap is used as a prop on his board map, and finally, the board game's ending cutscene is based on another secret course [[Wing Mario Over the Rainbow]]. The ending cutscene for Luigi's Engine Room has the board reveal itself to take place inside a flying ship much like the Rainbow Cruiser from the course [[Rainbow Ride]], though however with a completely different design. The Cheep Cheep in Yoshi's Tropical Island takes its English name from [[Cheep Chomp|Bubba]] from [[Tiny-Huge Island]]. Mario's title screen (if he wins the board game under the title of being a Superstar) depicts him with the Wing Cap flying with the other playable characters. Mario's scream from this game is also reused. In the minigame [[Face Lift]], the logo in the background reads "Super Bowser 64". [[Wario's Battle Canyon]] features a feud between the [[Bob-omb Buddy|Red Bob-ombs]] and [[Bob-omb|Black Bob-ombs]] similar to [[Bob-omb Battlefield]]. | *''[[Super Mario 64]]'': Peach's Birthday Cake is based on Princess Peach's letter that she baked a cake for Mario, and the layout of the board and background surrounding it are based on the photograph after the credits.
