Because we know it's coming...

-This is apparently the first installment in which Boo appears as a playable character. Hope at least one of them takes this opportunity to mix it up and pick him (and at the very least, he's at least 10 times the character Waluigi is).

-Rootin' for Jeff this time around, since he's now the only one who hasn't gotten a victory yet, RNG God willing. And god bless Dan, but I hope he ends up last again to make Jeff's victory all the sweeter.

I doubt they'll pick different characters, but here's to hoping. When do people imagine this will happen? Probably a few weeks after E3 during the long summer. July maybe?

Still can't wait. Easily one of my favorite features right now. So long as Dan doesn't win, I'll be happy. Jeff winning would be especially funny.

How many of the "75 all-new mini-games" do you think they will get to play? More than half of them I hope.

I'm really looking forward to this one. 5-7 were always my favorites to play with my family back in the day, so it'll be interesting to see how much of that enjoyment was just young ignorance.

I think Mario Party 5-8 are real bummers, because they get rid of the item shop.

Instead, there's an item capsule machine, and every time you pass it, it just gives you a random capsule for free. Since the capsule itself is free, the coins are spent to activate the capsule when you actually have someone to use it on. I feel like it makes the game significantly more random, because you can't even convert a coin lead into a Magic Lamp or Boo Crystal Ball (item shop usually has one of these in Mario Party 4), because the capsules are random as shit, and the good ones are ridiculously rare. To be fair, they make it easier to ditch items you don't want by letting you just throw any capsule onto the board, and if someone lands on that space you threw it on they get the effect of the item. Also, Mario Party 5 has like 4 or 5 different items that just steal/rearrange/destroy the capsules other players are holding, which would be nuts in Mario Party 1-4 where they might actually have a good item, but in all likelihood the capsules you're holding at any moment in Mario Party 5 probably suck, so it doesn't matter.

Seriously, prepare for every fucking item to be "other players lose 10 coins, swap places with another character, etc.", because you almost never see any of the really power item effects. If you ever end up with like 150 coins, there is almost nothing to actually spend it on, and all it's good for is the end of the game for a tiebreaker or maybe you'll get the bonus star for most coins.

Given that Jeff already hates that even 49 turns in, minigames only reward a trivial 10 coins, I expect him to hate that there are very few ways to actually make use of having a 100+ coin lead in Mario Party 5. Winning the minigames (thus getting coins) becomes almost irrelevant, as all you really need are the 20 coins to buy a star.

Mario Party 5 being an odd numbered installment will see a Ryckert victory again!

Mario Party 5 and 7 were the ones on GC I didn't play a lot. I really hope they get a GC Mic for 6 and 7. My friends and I had a blast with 6 with the dumb Mic stuff.

I've been hoping that one of these days they all secretly team up against Dan then reveal their treachery at the end of the show.

This implies that the people playing Mario Party actually have control over the outcome.

I guess they're leaving it up to the community to send them a copy. I highly doubt any of them have a copy.

Starting to wonder if we are ever going to get this. MP 7 is my favorite of the series so I hope they get there. Also, I agree that they better get a mic because I doubt they are going to want to play with a used one sent in by a Duder.

I think the loser of the Rocket League Rematch has to do MP 5. Basically Dan will then try to lose on purpose tearing GBWest apart.

According to the wiki blurb, there are 75 new minigames.

According to the wiki body text, there are 75 total games, with 25 being new.

Can we get a confirmation from someone who knows?

Serious business here folks...

Expected Mario Party Party 5 to happen a couple weeks after E3, still eagerly waiting. I'm rewatching the BioForge playthrough in the mean time.

When GB inevitably does this, I have to warn them to not, for the love of god, do Toy Dream.

I did it on a 20-turn game and it's so badly designed I ended up with somewhere around 12 stars.

...It's a bad map.

We're hitting the territory where I'm super unfamiliar with the next few games and that's exciting for me, because I want to see how shitty they get. I've seen a lot of the first 4 on other websites, and played a bit of 8 and 9 (which are both horrid, in my opinion), but I have no knowledge of 5-7, so this should be fun! I really hope this is coming up soon :)

@dilkington: These are so good, I'm not sure why but I just love the dynamic of Dan being super excited and everyone else just not giving a fuck.
