*'''Minigame Star:'''{{anchor|Minigame Star}} {{anchor|Mini-Game Star}} The Minigame Star (originally spelled '''Mini-Game Star''' and '''Mini-game Star''') has appeared in every ''Mario Party'' game to date. It is awarded to whoever collected the most coins in every [[minigame]] altogether. Coins won from Battle (pre-''Mario Party 5''), Duel, [[Game Guy]], and [[Donkey Kong]] minigames are not accounted for. In ''Mario Party 9'', ''Mario Party DS'', and ''Mario Party Superstars'', the number of minigame wins is counted instead.
'''A Plumber's Lament''' is the name of a piece of art created by master sculptor [[Garro]] of [[Nimbus Land]] for the kingdom's usurper queen [[Valentina]] during the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]''. The gold-colored statue is a depiction of a seemingly ordinary, working-class male [[human]] plumber. According to Garro, the sculpture's thick mustache covers the "sad, innocent smile of a simple fool," the sideburns serve as a reminder of the plumber's "blue collar roots," and the strong, muscular legs represent the "legs of the masses." While Valentina was initially repulsed by the sculpture, after Garro's analysis of his masterpiece's proletariat symbolism, the queen-to-be lauded ''A Plumber's Lament'', calling it a piece of "gentle beauty" and "raw power." Valentina quickly has the statue put on display by her servant [[Dodo]] next to gold sculptures made in her likeness, which were also created by Garro.
*'''Coin Star:''' {{anchor|Coin Star}}{{anchor|Rich Star}} This Bonus Star first appeared in ''Mario Party'' and appeared in every subsequent game up to ''Mario Party 5'', returning in ''Super Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party Superstars'' as the '''Rich Star'''. In the first five ''Mario Party'' games, it is awarded to whoever held the most coins at any time during gameplay. In ''Super Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party Superstars'', it is instead awarded to the player who collected the most coins total throughout the game, including coins spent and stolen from them.
 
*'''Happening Star:'''{{anchor|Happening Star}}{{anchor|Event Star}}{{anchor|Green Star}}{{anchor|Action Star}}{{anchor|? Star}}{{anchor|Eventful Star}} Also known as the '''Event Star''', '''Green Star''', '''Action Star''', or '''? Star''', the Happening Star has appeared in every ''Mario Party'' game until ''Mario Party 9'', returning in ''Super Mario Party'' as the '''Eventful Star'''. It is awarded to whoever landed on the most [[Event Space|? Space]]s during gameplay.
Unbeknownst to Valentina, ''A Plumber's Lament'' is actually [[Mario]] in disguise as part of a plan to infiltrate Nimbus Castle in order to restore [[King Nimbus|King]] and [[Queen Nimbus]] to the throne and topple the regime of the false queen Valentina (who had manipulated the [[Nimbus (species)|Nimbus population]] through various political schemes, setting herself up as ''de facto'' ruler of Nimbus Land). In order to expose Valentina's ruse to the greater population, King and Queen Nimbus need to be extradited from the confines of the castle. However, only those with official business with Valentina are allowed entrance to the castle by her guards, the [[Birdy|Birdies]]. Therefore, Garro, Valentina's private sculptor but secretly an ally of Mario and the King and Queen's son (and true heir to the throne) [[Prince Mallow]], devise a plan to get Mario past the guards undetected by turning him into his "latest masterpiece" ''A Plumber's Lament''. To do so, Garro actually applies a coat of gold dust all over Mario's face and clothes in order to make him ''appear'' to be a gold sculpture. Mario, standing perfectly still in order to mimic a statue, is then delivered to Valentina along with several gold sculptures made in the image of the usurper queen, thus allowing Mario to safely and covertly infiltrate the castle.
*'''Orb Star:'''{{anchor|Orb Star}}{{anchor|Candy Star}}{{anchor|Item Star}}{{anchor|Dice Block Star}} Appearing in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', ''Mario Party 7'', ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' (as the '''Candy Star'''), ''Mario Party DS'', ''Mario Party 9'' (as the '''Dice Block Star'''), ''Mario Party: Star Rush'', ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', and ''Super Mario Party'' (as the '''Item Star'''), this Star is given to whoever used the most [[Orb]]s, items, [[Candy (Mario Party 8)|Candies]], or Special Dice Blocks during gameplay. It replaces the Coin Star in ''Mario Party 6''.
 
*'''Red Star:'''{{anchor|Red Star}}{{anchor|Unlucky Star}} This Bonus Star appears in ''Mario Party 7'' and ''Mario Party 8'', returning in ''Super Mario Party'' as the '''Unlucky Star'''. It is given to whoever landed on the most [[Red Space]]s during gameplay. In ''Super Mario Party'', it also counts the number of [[Bad Luck Space]]s and Extra Bad Luck Spaces landed on.
[[File:BSSMUSA Mariostatue.png|left]]
*'''Running Star:'''{{anchor|Running Star}}{{anchor|Far Star}}{{anchor|Sightseer Star}} This Bonus Star appears in ''Mario Party 7'', ''Mario Party 8'', ''Mario Party DS'', and ''Mario Party 9'' (as the '''Far Star''' to fit the vehicular movement mechanic), returning in ''Mario Party: Star Rush'' and ''Super Mario Party'' as the '''Sightseer Star'''. It is given to whoever moved the most [[space (Mario Party series)|space]]s altogether by rolling the [[Dice Block]].
A similar statue appears in ''[[BS Super Mario USA]]'' as an item, found three times in each level. Each one gives the player an extra life.
*'''Shopping Star:'''{{anchor|Shopping Star}} This Bonus Star appears in ''Mario Party 7'' and ''Mario Party 8''. It is given to whoever spent the most coins at [[Orb hut]]s and [[Candy Shop]]s, respectively. Shops that [[Bowser]] runs (through [[Bowser Time]]) count towards this total.

*After Valentina and Dodo flee Nimbus Land, and King and Queen Nimbus (along with Prince Mallow) are restored to the throne, Garro sculpts an ''actual'' gold statue of Mario (along with statues of Mallow, [[Geno]], [[Bowser]], and [[Princess Peach|Toadstool]]).

[[File:SMRPG Mariostatue.png|frame|left]]
'''In Search of Lost Brother''' (originally called '''A Plumber's Lament''') is the name of a piece of art created by [[Garro]] of [[Nimbus Land]] for the kingdom's queen [[Valentina]] during the events of ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its Nintendo Switch remake]]. The gold-colored statue is a depiction of a plumber, which resembles [[Mario]]. According to Garro in the original version, A Plumber's Lament's thick mustache covers the "sad, innocent smile of a simple fool," the sideburns symbolize the plumber's "blue collar roots," and the strong, muscular legs represent the "legs of the masses." In the Nintendo Switch remake, however, Garro describes the sculpture's thick mustache as a depiction for "his kind feelings for his younger brother," that the sideburns convey "his strength of heart," and that the legs are well defined, strong and "can leap any distance in a single bound;" this description, along with the new title of In Search of Lost Brother, matches closer to the original Japanese description and title of the statue, and in turn references Mario's relationship with [[Luigi]]. While Valentina initially disliked the sculpture, after Garro's analysis of his statue, she lauded In Search of Lost Brother, calling it a piece of "gentle beauty" and "raw power." Valentina has the statue put on display by her servant [[Dodo]] next to gold sculptures of herself.
 
Unknown to Valentina, In Search of Lost Brother is actually Mario himself, in disguise as part of a plan to break into Nimbus Castle to restore [[King Nimbus|King]] and [[Queen Nimbus]] to the throne. To expose Valentina's plot, King and Queen Nimbus need to be freed from the castle. However, only those with official business with Valentina are allowed entrance. Therefore, Garro and Prince [[Mallow]] devise a plan to get Mario past the guards by turning him into In Search of Lost Brother. To do so, Garro applies a coat of gold dust all over Mario to make him look like a gold sculpture. Mario, standing perfectly still to add to the effect, is then delivered to Valentina, allowing Mario to enter the castle. The statue's title and description were therefor made up on the spot when Garro was being interrogated by Valentina in regards of the statue, similar to when Garro was being interrogated by two [[Birdy]] guards at the castle entrance (to which Garro stated that the statue was a sculpture of Valentina's cousin, '''Mariotta''', instead). After Valentina is removed from the throne, Garro creates a true sculpture of Mario.

This page contains two revisions on a article on [[Donkey Kong Jr.]]'s second-player palette swap from ''[[Donkey Kong Jr. Math]]'', which has since been merged. This palette swap, referred to in the game's manual as '''Junior (II)''' and formerly known by the conjectural name '''Pink Donkey Kong Jr.''', has become a running gag on this wiki, and was even the primary subject of [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/April Fool's 2019|its April Fool's joke in 2019]]. The first revision is from the article's creation, the second is from April 6, 2014 and is the last to use the conjectural name "Pink Donkey Kong Jr.", and the third is the exact revision before its merge.

Magikoopa receiving the Minigame Star in Mario Party 9
  • Minigame Star: The Minigame Star (originally spelled Mini-Game Star and Mini-game Star) has appeared in every Mario Party game to date. It is awarded to whoever collected the most coins in every minigame altogether. Coins won from Battle (pre-Mario Party 5), Duel, Game Guy, and Donkey Kong minigames are not accounted for.
