Hi, I was just curious what you guys think the best Mario Party game is. Personally, mine is Mario Party DS.
 
Mario Party DS is also my favourite (but that may be due to the fact that that's the only one I've played).
 
Mario Party 6 has the best board gameplay. Orbs are versatile (perhaps not as interesting as Mario Party 3's) and are an improvement over Mario Party 5's Capsules (you can also get them for free as how capsule machines give you stuff for free). The duel system is the same as Mario Party 5's duel system, where you actually put things through a stake rather than let a roulette determine your award. It's also the last game where you can have CPU-only matches and the tag team battle isn't constrained as Mario Party 7's. It also has a day-night system to spice things up a bit. Also, Brighton and Twila are the best hosts.

Mario Party 7 has a superior minigame selection due to most of its luck-based minigames being restricted to battle minigames. It also has character-specific orbs, though it kind of ran against the idea that you should pick your favorite rather than use Peach for her broken flower orb.

Ayy cool
I like it the most because the minigames just feel so fun compared to the more recent games, and it just feels more like a "Mario Party" game which I don't really know how to explain.
 
Mario Party 3 was the best N64 Mario Party, because it introduced Duel minigames and lets you carry up to three items (on top of having an expanded item system), as well as introducing punching bags Daisy and Waluigi to the Mario Party series. The minigames were pretty fun, I had fond memories of Aces High, End of the Line (I dunno why I found that minigame so much funny when I was a young child), etc. Mario Party 3 also had an interesting duel mode that I wish wasn't thrown out in later games.

Out of the GameCube ones, Mario Party 6 was the best one for reasons my sister explained.

Out of the ndCube Mario Party games, Mario Party: Star Rush is my favorite. I wrote a review in GameFAQs regarding my thoughts on it.

All of them.

Because they are all tied for last
 
Of the six I've played, Mario Party 9 is my favourite, the minigames are fun, I like the board designs, which are also long to compensate for the car mechanic (The ones in Mario Party 10 are far too short). The minigame modes I think are the best part though, particularly things like Boss Rush and the garden one that's name's escaped me right now. Also it didn't have MC Ballyhoo, which is always a good start for any game.

Mario Party DS is my second favourite.

Wouldn't this also mean they're all tied for first?
 
Yes but since it's all rubbish it's nothing worth being celebrated for.
 
The characters in-game seem to be really really happy to throw a Mario Party
