-'''Capsule Dispensers''' (also known as '''Capsule Machines''') appear only in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', and as their name implies, dispense [[Orb|Capsules]] to players. If a player passes a Capsule Dispenser, they can get a random Capsule for free. Capsule Dispensers look like giant orange gumball machines, with Capsules instead of gumballs. Capsule Dispensers have bolts for eyes and a yellow mouth where the Capsules come out. They also sport two yellow rod-like arms with blue balls on the end. In the official ''Mario Party 5'' guide, [[Mario]] mentions he introduced Capsule Dispensers because he wanted the capsules to be free, although later in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', [[Orb Hut]]s replace Capsule Dispensers and the capsules now need to be bought; however, free capsules can still be found on the board.

+'''Capsule machines''' are objects that dispense [[orb|capsules]] to players, appearing only in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''. If a player passes a capsule machine, they can get a random capsule for free. Capsule machines are based on the real-life ''{{wp|gashapon}}'' machines, sometimes known as capsule machines. Capsule machines have bolts for eyes and yellow mouths where the capsules come out. They also sport two yellow rod-like arms with blue balls on the end. In the official ''Mario Party 5'' guide, [[Mario]] mentions he introduced capsule machines because he wanted the capsules to be free, although later in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', [[Orb hut]]s replace capsule machines and Orbs now need to be bought with [[coin]]s. However, free Orbs in those two games can still be obtained from [[Orb Space]]s. After every [[minigame]], [[Eldstar]] can be seen with three capsule machines as the game saves. On the last turn on a [[board (Mario Party series)|board]] game, the capsule machines are unavailable.
