Today’s agenda: Why Mario Party Superstars Is Still SUPER


Mario Party Superstars is quite the enigmatic entry to the Mario Party franchise— nobody expected its announcement, and yet, as soon as it came out, Nintendo’s interest in it faded away faster than your stars during Chance Time.


Advertised as a celebration of all the mainline Mario Parties, Superstars has a collection of minigames and boards from past titles (which is quite the step up from the previous “collection” installment, Mario Party: The Top 100). As such, it’s a great way for retro Mario Party fans & Mario Party newcomers to enjoy the charm of the original games. It even totes a landmark achievement as the first Mario Party game to release with fully-functional online play right from the start, allowing for Mario Party lovers all over the world to play together.


However, it’s been over a year and a half since the game came out, and there hasn’t been anything in the way of updates or DLC. Most people expected more boards, minigames, or even new characters to release over time, yet the game hasn’t changed at all since its October 2021 debut. But people still love to play this game all the time, including us! Join SpiderStaryu, Dreadianz, and special guest DirtyDan_DG as we discuss why we love Mario Party, what we still love about Superstars, and how the game could be even MORE super in the future.
