The players must say "Bigger" into the microphone in order to inflate it. If players lack a microphone, {{button|gcn|R}}, when enabled, opens a menu for two options: "Bigger" to inflate the balloon or "Stop" to stop the turn.
The players must say "Bigger" into the [[Nintendo GameCube#Nintendo GameCube Microphone|Mic]] in order to inflate the balloon or "Stop" to end the turn. If the game is played without a Mic, they can use the {{button|gcn|R}} button to open a menu for two options: "Bigger" to inflate the balloon or "Stop" to end the turn. Players can inflate the balloon up to five times per turn, and they must put in at least one breath before they can choose to stop. If the timer runs out during a player's turn, they automatically blow into the balloon the maximum number of times. When the balloon gets near bursting, the players begin to cringe, and the character who blows in runs much faster when their turn is over. The last player to inflate the balloon without bursting it wins.


They can do this up to five times per turn, however they can stop blowing after they've put in at least one breath. If the timer runs out, then the player automatically blows into the balloon as many times as they have remaining. When the balloon gets near bursting, the players will begin to cringe and the character who blows in will run much faster when their turn is over. The winner is the player who had their turn directly before the turn when the balloon burst.
In ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', there are three rounds, and only one player is knocked out each round. The controls are different as well—instead of saying "Bigger," the player blows on the 3DS mic or presses {{button|3ds|L}}, and they can press {{button|3ds|B}} to stop. Popping the balloon ends that round, and the player that burst it is eliminated. Another (bigger) balloon inflates, starting a new round, until the last player remaining wins.
 
In case of ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', there are 3 rounds, and only one player is knocked out each round. The controls are different - instead of saying "Bigger", one blows on it or presses {{button|3ds|L}}, and instead of saying "Stop", {{button|3ds|B}} is pressed. When the balloon bursts, the round is over, the player taking their turn is out, and another balloon inflates, starting a new round. The minigame ends once one player remains; that player is the winner.
