Mario Party 8 - Baseball Screenshot
Hours Played: over 12 hours

Mario Party 8 – the Wii edition of the Mario Party series. This game, like the others in the series, is much like a board game but better. Players take turns hitting the dice block and trying to get to the star (or other objective). At the end of each turn (after all players have gone) there is a mini-game between the players with a coin prize.MP8 has a variety of different gameplays including battle royale (regular), duel battle (quick 1-on-1), and tag-team battle (regular, but pairs combine stars). Duel battles are played between two players on modified maps.
