Very Fun Family and Friend Game!
I have been playing this with my family a couple fo times a week, and it is a blast.
For those of you new to Mario Party, like I was, it is basically an animated board game style of play with mini games after each round. There are a few different boards to play on and tons of mini games that most any age can handle. My kindergartener has no problem competing against "normal" difficulty computer opponents, and easily beats the "easy" level in the mini games.
I fully recommend this for family entertainment. The only down side to it is the minimum number of turns is 10. For two players playing as a team against the computer, that means your game is going to be about 1 hour minimum. On the positive side, even my 6 year old does not get bored with it in that hour.
As an adult party game, it can be just as entertaining and very challanging. You will enjoy all the smack talking and strategy as you try to gather those stars. Just remember to never give up because you can spin around and win with just the right role or piece of candy.

Party time: Great, Alone time: Average
If you are playing with 1 or more firends this is an A+ game. There is a lot of text that is involved and no quick way to by-pass it (even on fast message speed) or eliminate it. It would have been nice for Nintendo to have a disable option or actually have the guy talk to you as other platforms do. When on a single player mission the play is the same but just not as fun. After unlocking the 2 hidden characters and buying the extra games there is really no lasting appeal. Over all a very nice game that can be enjoyed alone or with friends. I hope the newer version will support online play as some of the games are going that way.

Great Family Game
My family and I really enjoy playing this together. The only real disappointment is that you have to play with a computer. So you either set is on Normal and except it will win all mini games when it is on its own but will help you when paired up. or set it to Easy and except if you have it as a partner you will have to do all the work.
