Mario Party 5: Difference between revisions

''Mario Party 5'' is developed by [[Hudson Soft]], the primary developer of the ''Mario Party'' series until ''[[Mario Party 9]]''. [[CAProduction]] is also involved co-developing this alongside Hudson, who also has a history of developing for ''Mario Party'' games as well. The game is directed by Kenji Kikuchi, who has also directed ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. Syuichiro Nishiya, who is a planning advisory for this game, would go on to be the director of much of the later ''Mario Party'' installments, starting with ''Mario Party 6''.

The music in ''Mario Party 5'' was composed by Aya Tanaka. It is different from the other games in that the music sounds sophisticated and (despite being synthesized as in most ''Mario Party'' games) has the illusion of being played by a professional symphony orchestra. This may be caused by the use of sounds that sound like true instruments, especially the harpsichord. This apparently didn't catch on, however, as Aya Tanaka has not composed any other ''Mario Party'' game. However, this game's sequels, ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]'' have progressed to an orchestrated musical score.
