Mario party 4-7 were released for the Nintendo GameCube. Mario party 4 was released in 2002. Its my least favorite.
Mario party 5 was released in 2003. I like it much better than 4. Mario party 6 was released in 2004 its my favorite one.
Mario party 7 was released in 2005. Its my favorite also.

How about you guys?
 
i think the minigames are what i enjoy the most about mario party 6, thus far the only one of these mario parties that i have played
 
The GameCube Mario Party games were certainly my favorite, from 4-7. If I were to rank them, 6>7>4>5 but all of them have their own strengths and weaknesses that set them apart: 5 even has super duel mode and the best minigame in the series, Mario Mechs. I really liked 6's day and night system and Brighton and Twila are my favorite hosts in the series and it also introduced Toadette as a playable character. It was also the last Mario Party to use a good dueling system before we got the stupid randomizer in later Mario Party games afterward rather than putting your items at stake initially. Mario Party 6 also has Faire Square, which is my favorite board in the series. 6 also refined the orb system and made it better than 5's wonky and random capsules.
 
I definitely like orbs the best too....more than capsules or items. And i definitely like the idea of duels too.
Pyramid park is my favorite board ever....i like how you get to ride chomps to steal stars, and Pyramid park is also the toughest board too....and i like that, and also Snowflake lake,
 
They're probably my least favorite games in the series. With the exception of Mario Party: Island Tour, I like the Mario Party games made by ND Cube the most (10 and Star Rush are my favorites).

Even the N64 Mario Party games are more fun because of what you can do with Gameshark codes. I use a Dice Roll modifier so that my character rolls a 7 every turn and that way I don't have to worry about getting crappy low numbers. I also use Character Modifiers to change my opponents mid-game. What I like to do in Mario Party 3 is start the party with characters that I like (I play as Peach, my opponents are Daisy, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong), and then on the last turn I change my opponents to Wario, Waluigi, and Luigi so that they're the ones that lose at the end. I can't do this in the Gamecube Mario Party games because I haven't been able to find any Character Modifier codes, and that's why they're not as fun to me.

There are other problems besides that, for example, I really don't like the board gameplay in Mario Party 4 and 5. Both games are painfully slow since the characters move across the board at a snail's pace, and some of the items have really long animations. Also, all of Mario Party 4's boards have some annoying gimmick that makes it difficult to get to where you need to (teacups in Toad's Midway Madness, the roulette and Goomba dice block duels in Gooma's Greedy Gala, the banana peels in Koopa's Seaside Soiree, etc.).

Mario Party 6 and 7 have much better boards and the gameplay has been sped up, but their minigames are mediocre. Both games have a few minigames that I really can't stand playing and make me want to reset the game whenever they get chosen (Cannonball Fun and Same is Lame in MP6, Bubble Brawl and Sphere Factor in MP7). Mario Party 7 also has one of the laziest and least creative minigames ever, which is Cointagious.

So yeah, sorry to the fans of these games but I really don't like them anymore. I said that they're probably my least favorite games in the series, but I think that I actually dislike Mario Party: Island Tour more.
 
I never really played any of these games, so I'm not really sure. What I do know is that all the GameCube games haven't been re-released for years.

I do agree with you about the minigames Cointagious and Same is lame....i don't like those either.
How do you do those cheat codes to roll a 7 every time?
