Do you think the Mario Party series needs a reboot?

I think they shouldn't add a storyline to them. It really just ruins the game, like it did with Mario Party 9.

I'm fine with the story. I actually liked Mario Party 6's story

Man I miss Tag Team battles.

I know right? They don't even have 2-vs-2 mini-games anymore =(.

Yeah

Just screw Mario party 9 and Island Tour

9 was still fun without them, but Island Tour is unforgivable. I even gave it a bad score on Metacritic!

Anyway, I don't exactly love the stories:
DS: OH NO NOW WE'RE SMALL!
8: OH NO BOWSER STOLE THE STAR ROD! (cheap ripoff of Kirby's Adventure)
9: OH NO WE CAN'T STARE AT THE CONSTELLATIONS ANYMORE!
IT: OH NO SOME RANDOM ISLANDS LOOK UGLY!

Well, this IS Mario Party we're talking about. The stories never really got that good, people just play for the gameplay and whatnot.

The reason I love the story is how cheesy they can get, lol

They just need to remove all the luck-based gameplay that's defined the newest Mario Party games. Add a bit of strategy to it. Not too much, but enough that I can still beat the computer players by over 3 stars if their AI is set to easy.

Hell, they should just return the ability to set handicaps at 9 stars, so I could get 9 stars, Daisy and Waluigi 5, and Wario 0

if they can remake the amount of sheer chaos and luck based things from 1-3 again thatd be the best thing
the games either really frustrated you sometimes or make you feel like youre the king of the world. i guess the gcn ones weren't so bad either but they weren't as memorable as the n64 ones
the gba was realy bad imo and ds was ok
8 wasnt so memorable, i didnt really like 9 with the everyone travels as a group, and island tour i dont really know much about but from the looks of it i dont think ill like it

The Mario series in general was never really known for story. It was always about the gameplay. You just need to know what your goal is and do it. That's generally what Mario is about.

Trust me. YOU DON'T WANT TO GET IT.
