Anyone pick this up? I'm curious if the pro controllers work well with it, or is it made for the wii motes...

Dude that works at the GameStop I go to has been hounding me to buy this. I'm just not interested unless my friends are playing.

I was planning on playing with gf and kid, but all I have is the pro controllers

IGN gave it a 6.5 and they normally blow their load over Nintendo games. Must have been really bad

The fact that you all move at the same time instantly turns me off to it. The fun part about the original games (1-3) is that you had to use strategy and a bit of good luck to win. When you won, you felt great satisfaction like you did something and beat out whoever you were playing. Now it's just video game socialism.

Spot on.
We used to play the shite out of these games.
The fact that you all move at the same time is bullshite.

How does someone win if everyone moves together? I don't get it.

IM not getting it if I have to use wiimotes and I disagree with the car thing

It's not good unless you're young.

The mini games are actually quite enjoyable. Yes, you all move together, but it's not who makes it to the end first that wins, it is who has the most stars. Also, the new Bowser mode is pretty fun as well. The whole concept of this "everyone moves together" is that Bowser is chasing you and trying to steal your stars. It's much better than 9 which tried to do the same thing, and most of the mini games are pretty good. I'd give it a 7.5/10.

Yes, I believe so. The knumchucks are not however. Also, with the new Bowser mode, one player uses the gamepad while up the 4 use the wii motes.

they've been pretty down on Mario Party for a while now though.
that said, the review basically said it should be good for kids but adults might get bored so if OP is going to play with his kid a bunch it might be a good buy.

I just got it, but haven't had a chance to play it just yet. Reviews are very mixed, but from what I've read it's the same as it ever was...by yourself it's meh, but it's fun to play with kids and/or have a bunch of friends come over to play while drunk/high.
Haven't experienced the cart dynamic. Haven't really played it since the N64. So I'm sure it's different, but I feel like people blow it out of proportion because it doesn't conform with their nostalgia. Let's be honest, Mario Party always relied on a shite ton of chance and luck. Hell, you could be in 1st all game, then BAM, the person in last steals a star from you on the last turn and gets a bonus star for landing on most question marks (complete luck) and they win. It was never a "fair" game where the best player always wins. That's what made it so fun.
And I don't think strategy is completely out of it...from what I've read there's still ways you can sabotage other people with different kinds of dice, etc. Plus I think this speeds games up, so they don't end up taking 2+ hours to play with 4 people.
