Bumper Balloons is a 2-vs.-2 and Duel minigame found in Mario Party 8. Its name is a pun on "bumper cars." This minigame takes place in a similar setting to Kartastrophe, albeit on a differently shaped track more fit for battles.
Introduction[edit]
The camera focuses in on each team/player before zooming out to show the entire driving area, at which point the minigame begins.
Gameplay[edit]
Players must hold the Wii Remote sideways to play this minigame. The objective for the player is to pop all of their team/own color's balloons before the opposing team/player can pop its/theirs. To pop a balloon, a player must simply drive into it. The player must be careful not to pop the other team's/player's balloons. Whichever team/player has all its/their balloons popped first wins the minigame.
Ending[edit]
The vehicles are parked in the center of the track, and winners do victory poses while losers do losing poses.

- Wii Remote: Turn steering wheel
- Buttons
– Accelerate
– Decelerate/reverse
