No worries, Vern will defend it. Honestly, aside from the graphics being kinda ok, I think it's really good. It's brutal, the minigames are fun and intuitive but require practice to master, and the boards are very unique.
Trust me dude, I get it. Nowadays, my main problem with 8 is that the minigames as a whole aren’t as good as I remembered, but I think everything else about it (boards, characters, items, music, modes) is rock solid. It’s still one of my favorite Mario Party games
My parents didn't quite understand video games, so it wouldn't be terribly often we'd play one together. However, Mario Party 8 was something my mom loved, and would suggest we play it time and time again. Fantastic memories.
The best map is Koopa’s Tycoon Town by far. One of the best maps in the whole series because of how chaotic it is. Also the music in this game is way too good
Mario party 8 definitely has its flaws but it also has a lot of strengths. The soundtrack slaps, the boards are fun and varied and it has a ton of cool items to use with unique forms for each character.
agreed! Soundtrack and board variety are extremely good in this one imo. I also kinda love how like half of the minigames show the losing players getting punished during the results screen, alwasy was funny to me.
Man, the nostalgia of Mario Party 8. I remember back when the Wii was the hottest thing, and I wanted one so bad but it was sold out everywhere lol. I remember my father driving around stores asking for months. I think sometime in early 2009 though he came home one day and surprised me and my older brother. He had the Wii, an extra wiimote+ nunchuck, the Wii zapper, and several games for us. It was a good day to be a kid, and man I still feel so nostalgic for that day. My father's really cool. :)
I love how they clearly don't know you can transfer all of your Wii data to your Wii U. Also, MP8 was a huge part of my childhood. It was one of the rare times me and my 3 sisters would get along... until I beat them in Shake It Up and Punch-a-Bunch.
@@agentblackbird9435 It is a pretty niche thing. It required you to go into the Wii's Wii Shop, get the Transfer application, and follow a bunch of instructions, and then wait and watch a bunch of Pikmin carry your Wii Data to your Wii U.
Man MP8 will always be my favorite Mario Party, It was one of the first Mario games I've ever played, it got me introduced to Dry Bones who is my favorite Mario character of all time, and the game itself being such a nostalgic masterpiece 🙏🏽
"I feel like when you land on a Bowser space, it should be catastrophic." Three words: Shy Guy Express. Honestly, Mario Party 8 is my favorite, and if there's one thing that makes this game stand out to me, it's its unique style of bullshit.
This game was my first ever game. It always had it’s flaws, but it still had some of the best mini games, some of the best maps, and the most toxic boards.
Honestly, if you have perfected motion control, Mario Party 8 has great minigames. And the Maps are very nice and original. Also the object are very nice too (except the shop system). But frl, with some minor adjustments, this game can be one of the best
Mario party 8 was in that mixed bag. The game ideas and how it runs as a mario game was a banger, but the smoothness of the game and trying to deal with the damn sensor bar was not though. One of my favs and the more games ive seen more of the trauma came into light 😂
I was wondering why the title was implying that it was being hated on. And then I noticed that they chose DK Treetop Temple and it makes sense. Nah seriously, if you want a good Mario Party 8 board, Koopa's Tycoon Town
Dry Bones Dub!! Less go Choc! 👑 Couch playing Mario Party 8 gives me such a wave of nostalgia, its very flawed compared to its previous games but there are a few high notes for this game. Also that board is one of the basic ones compared to the rest
say what y'all want about MP8, but it'll always have a special place in my heart since it was my 1st MP game (plus I quite liked it as a MP game and a video game in general) XD
I’ll probably get hate for this but I actually prefer Mario Party 9 over 8 because the minigames are straight up fire 🔥 and I feel like they utilised the motion controls gimmick better than 8, in my opinion.
I love The Wii eras of Mario Party. Despite the games being flawed, I enjoyed playing them every chance I got to. Can't wait to see you guys play Mario Party 9!
Mario Party 8 is my childhood game. I play that game a lot nowadays too. This game and Mario party 9 gave me the enjoyment of the Mario Party Series. No matter how bad or good it was to others, I’ll love Mario Party No matter what. (Except Advance) Also, you should’ve played this game with Vernias, he loves Mario Party 8.
17:07 Simple math wise, 3 players have the advantage. 9 is 3 panels for three players. 4 is 4 panels for one player. This technically means that the person alone has to do more to get each panel before the 3 players. The problems are coordination and it’s slightly harder to recognize the correct squares.
You guys should find a way to do Mario party 10. I play this with my parents and friends on our Wii U, and it is absolute chaos and I think that it would be comedy gold if you guys were to do it.
honestly i love this game bc of my childhood ANDD beating bowser to unlock blooper and hammer bro (i think he comes with it too) was the best part. i was in my living room sweating my ass off, playing over and over until i got it
mario party 8 will always have a place in my heart it's one of my favorit mario party because it's on the wii and the wii is a goated console my other favorite mario party is the 6 because the day and night mechanics is so good
I literally traded my copy of 9 for a friend's copy of 8 because I was so disappointed at the car mechanics and such. 8 was at least a traditional Mario Party
Man I love Mario Party 8. I bought it for the Wii recently and mum and I play it a LOT. Favourite character is Blooper, I just wish there were more maps
Depending on the board you choose can be chaotic like I know the Koopa board you can buy banks and if someone lands they can give a certain amount of coins and if say you give like I think 20 coins you get Star and if someone lands on your bank they can do more coins and steal your star and upgrade your bank or any bank and the higher the bank or upgraded the more stars you get and you can steal others banks and steal their stars which is fun
Mario Party 8 was my childhood... Despite how flawed it was, I still can't help but love it.
No worries, Vern will defend it. Honestly, aside from the graphics being kinda ok, I think it's really good. It's brutal, the minigames are fun and intuitive but require practice to master, and the boards are very unique.

Yeah I still go back and play it with my friends and I we always have fun with the great mini games
The mini games might just be good to me because of my fond memories of them but I digress
My parents didn't quite understand video games, so it wouldn't be terribly often we'd play one together. However, Mario Party 8 was something my mom loved, and would suggest we play it time and time again. Fantastic memories.
The best map is Koopa’s Tycoon Town by far. One of the best maps in the whole series because of how chaotic it is. Also the music in this game is way too good
YES. The most strategic Mario party board imo
I agree
STONKS
@@TehGenericGuy True, though king Boo's map is more fun
What about the shy guy train map?
8:07 The irony of Meg winning that minigame is purely artistic 🤣
take it out of context!
I personaly really like Mario Party 8. Idk why but the boards and minigames just kinda stuck to me. It's fun.
It's one of the most unforgiving games with really good mini games and maps. It's Vern's favorite.
Tycoon Town
@@Endershock1678TH-cam is full of dumb@$$es that need to hold their hand all the time and act like babies
I loved it so much
the reason is nostalgia bias

The boards are copied from 7 and the candies are easily the weakest items in the series
NOOOOO. MY CHILDHOOD BEING HATED 😢
So. Many. Comments.
I never played Mario party 8, so I can’t relate. I have played 9 tho. I know true pain.
Same
It makes me upset how many people dislike this Mario party😢. (But to be fair they chose the worst map)
Fr :(
@@Isa-vs9iifr. They should've chosen the island one with only one star location

Excuse me? That’s not cool.
Blooper and Hammer Bro are unlockable after you beat the story mode but I totally forgot the name of it.
I want to see if they will try to play Wii Party, if they will, I get the popcorn ready.
It’s called Star Battle Arena and I will be down to watch the gameplay if they ever do it.
@@Bombexplorer thanks.
Oh yeah, and if you want to specifically get both, you have to play it twice with a random one and the character you got I think
I love how they clearly don't know you can transfer all of your Wii data to your Wii U. Also, MP8 was a huge part of my childhood. It was one of the rare times me and my 3 sisters would get along... until I beat them in Shake It Up and Punch-a-Bunch.
Same with me and my brother, we always had to play in team mode because otherwise we would start arguing and getting mad at each other
I transferred my Wii data to my Wii U back in like 5th grade, kind of surprised they don’t know that
@@agentblackbird9435 It is a pretty niche thing. It required you to go into the Wii's Wii Shop, get the Transfer application, and follow a bunch of instructions, and then wait and watch a bunch of Pikmin carry your Wii Data to your Wii U.
The only thing I hate about this game is that you can only play as your Miis in extra mode.
That title has me concerned, but I’ll watch on with excitement. I still love this game despite the flaws I’ve discovered over the years
MP8 was my Childhood, I love this game
they have GOT to play this again, but on the King Boo Board
they would lose their minds
All maps are great choices
@loganawesomeytTycoon Town is Windmillville but lame
Choctapus: Going to a Bowser space should be catastrophic in this game.
Me: You clearly never played Shy Guy Express.
Or the King Boo and Bowser maps
The jungle board in MP6 had a similar function with some of its Happening Spaces and yet it also had Bowser/DK spaces hehe.
As a professional Mario Party 8 enjoyer, this hurts me
same
same
Man MP8 will always be my favorite Mario Party, It was one of the first Mario games I've ever played, it got me introduced to Dry Bones who is my favorite Mario character of all time, and the game itself being such a nostalgic masterpiece 🙏🏽
“This game is so slow!”
Picks the literal worst board
Ooooh I love it when you guys play games that were pillars in my childhood.
Sidequest never fails to entertain us
How dare they dunk on my 4-5 year old memories 😢
Ok but Koopa's Tycoon Town, that's one of the greatest Mario Party boards ever
It's Windmillville but lame 😕
I'm surprised y'all rolled higher than TheRunawayGuys did.
Choc and the boys just drinking beer during a game.
This is the way to live
Bro if they hate Mario Party 8, wait til they play Mario Party 9's Magma mine, you lose half the stars if caught by Magma
I would’ve loved to see them play the Boswer board, that one would be more chaotic with the whole stealing stars mechanic of that board
MP8 is TOP TIER no one can change my mind.
That's what I'm saying
Megan beating all the boys at the... questionable minigame is funny alright
MP8 is important because it was a lot of people’s only exposure to ‘classic’ Mario Party.
Man, I believe that 8 has the best mini games, plus the sounds, I love the UI, it’s just so nostalgic for me, and I still love the game.
My favorite Mario Party game…being spit on like dirt by such a great group channel…my hearts in pain auuuugh…
This was the last mario party i got to play with my grandma before she became like half blind and cant see rlly, we would play all the time
Just because your bad at Mario Party 8 does not mean it is a bad game
Just because you got lucky and you are willing to shake the wii remote for an entire Board game doesn't mean it's a masterpiece of a game.
Just because you think your right doesn't mean you smart
6:34 idk why but this minigame used to terrify the shit out of me as a kid
I used to play it in my wii when I was a kid, good memories 😢

they should've played the monopoly map tbh
this was my childhood around 8 when friends were over we go CRAZY on this game
Oh my god this game was my CHILDHOOD. I remember playing this game with my sister, babysitter, and a random cpu. Ahhh love it
WHERE THE HELL IS THE MOST IMPORTANT SIDEQUEST MEMBER?
WHERE THE HELL IS DANNY
I was wondering why the title was implying that it was being hated on.
And then I noticed that they chose DK Treetop Temple and it makes sense.
Nah seriously, if you want a good Mario Party 8 board, Koopa's Tycoon Town
I agree by a lot
The king boo board and goomba board are cool too
More like almost any other board that isn’t this one haha
@@SleepyBuggo the shy guys are the only cool part
@@Csep1579 so true. Shy guy is always a based guy :D

Huh, so thats explain why vern was on the descripción
8 Was the only good Mario Party I played until superstars
Dry Bones Dub!! Less go Choc! 👑 Couch playing Mario Party 8 gives me such a wave of nostalgia, its very flawed compared to its previous games but there are a few high notes for this game. Also that board is one of the basic ones compared to the rest
loving these mario party videos!
I absolutely love this game; the boards are all so unique. The Donkey Kong board is the worst though.
The boards were copied from 7 tho 😕
@@jdmathews312where’s the treasure chest gimmick in 8 then.
Oh! You've got an early copy! Later print runs removed the blue pillarbox border (in favor of basic black bars) due to burn-in issues.
say what y'all want about MP8, but it'll always have a special place in my heart since it was my 1st MP game (plus I quite liked it as a MP game and a video game in general) XD
Mario part 8 is my second favorite Mario party and for good reason.
Honnestly, DK’s Jungle is the weakest map in 8. It’s the only one that works on normal Mario Party rules buuuut 8 doesn’t thrive with that.
I’ll probably get hate for this but I actually prefer Mario Party 9 over 8 because the minigames are straight up fire 🔥 and I feel like they utilised the motion controls gimmick better than 8, in my opinion.

DK map was the easiest board, but like king boos map, that is a very toxic map, please play that one it is amazing
Perfect time for y’all to play this! My little bro and I just got back into playing this one, along with MP9!

You could say it's over8ed.

At least it isn’t Mario party 9
Now time for part 2 where you unlock everything
Idk i always liked 8 because of the font and artstyle.
A Mario Party game, and you didn't haul Vern out, kicking and screaming?
This was my childhood. Literally my inteoduction to mario party and i stand by it being my favorite one
8:15 its funny how the places in game is their player number on their Wii remote 😂😂
Mario Party 8 was like a MOVIE to me
this is my favorite mario party it has so many strengths that so heavily outway the weaknesses
mario party 8 will always have a place in my heart it's one of my favorit mario party because it's on the wii and the wii is a goated console my other favorite mario party is the 6 because the day and night mechanics is so good
I have not played Mario Party 8 since I turned 10 or 11, I'd do anything to play this one again for childhood nostalgia
Now we wait for Mario Party 9, which I think has the most content out of all the games.
Koopa’s tycoon is in my opinion the best
They need to play Mario party 7
I literally traded my copy of 9 for a friend's copy of 8 because I was so disappointed at the car mechanics and such. 8 was at least a traditional Mario Party

You posted this video when I became 8 years old in July 8th
Mario party 8 was swag af,stop the cap
The only bad part of Mario Party 8 is the climbing monkey minigame.
Flip the Chimp must be avoided at all costs.
To unlock Blooper and Hammer Bro, you have to do two Star Battle Arenas.
i love this game too much it was my childhood and bowser spaces and donkey kong spaces are different on each map
best mario party, i don’t care

Still better than Mario Party 1 and 2
Well... i mean you have not tried Koopa's Tycoon Town yet, so
Mario Party 8 was my MP childhood. It has some big issues but I love it dearly.
