Rumble Fishing is a Battle minigame in Mario Party 4. Its name is a pun on the title of the book Rumble Fish by S. E. Hinton.

IntroductionEdit

The camera shows a shot of the sun before tilting down to the four players on a dock, backs turned and holding fishing poles.

GameplayEdit

Each player has a fishing line. When the players each feel a bite (indicated by the Rumble Feature, hence the name), they must press the   button to reel in a Cheep Cheep. If the Rumble Feature is turned off, an exclamation mark is shown onscreen instead. The player who presses   the fastest reels in the biggest Cheep Cheep and wins the minigame. If everyone presses   too early or no one presses it within a certain time limit, the minigame ends in a tie.

EndingEdit

The players turn towards the camera, and the winner performs their victory animation while the losers perform their losing animations. If a tie occurs, everyone performs their losing animation.

ControlsEdit

  •   – Reel in
