Top 10 Biggest Problems with Mario Party Superstars
Mario Party Superstars is a decent game but there are definitely lots of flaws. Some of my opinions will change if the game gets DLC. I do not think this game is bad but I think it is very stale. I am just not a huge fan of this game. If you love the game that is fine. We all have different opinions.
There are just five boards to play classic Mario Party on, and that's it. There are no extra modes besides playing minigames. At least Super Mario Party had some things besides the main board mode, like Partner Party and River Survival. This makes the game super stale, and I got bored of playing it after one month.
When you buy everything, you are done. There is not a variety of courses, and some of the courses stink.
Hudson Soft made 6-8 original boards in the older Mario Party games, so is it really that hard for Nd Cube to make at least 6 remade boards on the Switch in 2021? I know that they are absolutely capable of doing 8-10 boards, but they don't want to because they know people will give it a 10/10 because of nostalgia.
I think that the character roster is very important in Mario spinoffs. It is a massive disappointment that it is mostly just the human characters and lacks variety. Mario Party 6 has a bigger character roster, and that game came out in 2004. There are so many characters that could have been playable, but no, they decided to make the roster very basic.
They are not "lucky" if they take up almost half of the board.
This is a bit of a problem, but it could've been worse.
Most of the 1 vs 3 minigames are unbalanced and always favor the solo player. If they don't favor the solo player, then they favor the 3 players.
True, but then again, they've always been like this, so it's nothing odd in this game.
This is a problem, and I wish Nd Cube paid more attention to them. As someone who grew up primarily with these games, the N64 is harder to come by, so it's obvious to prioritize the harder-to-get games.
I know this game is focused on the N64 titles, but instead of including very few minigames from the later installments, they should have made them equal or only included minigames from the N64 games and called this game Mario Party 64 All Stars.
Who's gonna win? The person I give a gift to. I just hate the dialog, not the feature.
This is the only real problem. The only things you can really unlock are info pages, songs, and other irrelevant stuff no one cares about. If there was a story mode of some sort and you'd unlock Horror Land and Birdo, that would be great.
After you buy all the backgrounds and music from the shop, you are done and stuck with 5 mediocre tracks.
Breaking News: Mario Party is a luck-based game, where people have considered RNG rigged since 1999.
This makes the game seem like a port instead of a new game. There is nothing that makes this game stand out as its own game.
Since you get so many coins from the lucky spaces and coin minigames, 7 coins for a Chomp Call and 5 for Double Dice are absolutely nothing. You would always buy them because they are so cheap. In the last turns, getting Golden Pipes is easy because you will usually have over 100 coins.
With the exception of the Chomp Call, every item in the game is about the same price as the others.
The only badly priced item is the Chomp Call. Everything else was acceptable.
At least from what I experienced, stars seem more rare to come out of hidden blocks in Super than in this game. One time I got 2 stars from hidden blocks in a 15-turn game.
