Hey guys, just got Mario party ds today and so far I am completely satisfied with it. Here is my quick review:
Gameplay: Gameplay is that of a full-blown mario party game. Everything that I could wish for is there, with the exception of bonus stars, which still might be available at some point. There are items, duels, and extremely inovative mini-games. All the mini-games I've played so far are terrific and make great use of the touch screen as well as buttons.
Graphics: The graphics are great. The boards and characters look great and there a few mini-games in which the scenery is just amazingly detailed. There are a few ugly textures on some of the boards, but it didn't bother me in the least.
Sound: A standard mario party soundtrack with some catchy tunes and standard mario character shout outs.
Value: I think this game is going to last me a LONG time. There are so many modes including story mode, party mode, puzzle mode, and mini-game mode. So far I've only checked out story mode mostly but I'm sure the others are great.
One thing that I was really happy about was that the computer players aren't as dumb as I thought they'd be! On hard difficulty you'll get beat a lot of the time and there is even expert difficulty to unlock!
I strongly suggest this game if you are a fan of mario party of if you just have a DS!
