Mario Party: The Top 100 Reviews
Mario Party: The Top 100 is a game that, even though it has 100 of the best minigames of the saga, it feels very short. Very uninspired game mode and very little content make this game uncapable to be on the same level as Nintendo has been this year. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-ldb4'); });

On top of quantity, Mario Party : The Top 100 gathers quality minigames that were wisely chosen, nicely updated and carefully ported to the portable console, although this nostalgic selection also results from the eventual compatibility with the original controls, consequently creating a few issues. Worse, the main modes are too simplistic and almost void of content. Whether those underline a lack of inspiration or development time, such shortcomings prevent this compilation from expressing its potential further than brief multiplayer sessions.

Mario Party: The Top 100 could have been so much more. The minigame assortment is a strong one and a fun nostalgia trip for fans of the series, however thanks to the game’s underwhelming selection of single and multiplayer modes that enjoyment is short-lived. A rushed release that sadly squanders its potential. Here’s hoping an inevitable Switch entry can get the series back on track.
Mario Party: The Top 100 is a nice mini-game collection, which quickly runs out of steam despite the large selection.

Mario Party: The Top 100 values quantity over quality, with a huge array of different events tied by a very basic connection. The overall result is basically an opportunity to regret how good and passionate the old chapters were.

Mario Party: The Top 100 is a game made with great diligence. Its party game nature, however, fails to take off and express itself fully, especially if you've played a lot of the mini-games re-proposed. Although it's a sort of mecum vate of the Nintendo saga, the game is very derived and essential, slipping too soon into oblivion.

Mario Party: The Top 100 does a very good job at bringing previous minigames of the Mario Party series to the 3DS, thanks to an exquisite conversion job whose result is a long lifespan, very good control systems and a fun and involving solo mode. The other side, though, is that Mario Party's multiplayer component misses out in this game, and it certainly feels like a lesser party game than its predecessors.

Mario Party: The Top 100 delivers on what it sets out to, providing a modern way to play 100 classic minigames, each legendary in its own right. Where the game falls short is in delivering what fans yearn for, almost teasing them with half of what made the series so brilliant. Were this game to embrace the chaos and beautiful madness many have come to love the series for, it would have potential to be the greatest entry yet.
Mario Party: The Top 100 is sadly mediocre. What should be a wonderful commemoration of the friendship-breaking party experience turns into a bland rehash of different minigames from the series. While this is still fun with friends, it's probably better to just grab an older Mario Party and dig in there.
Mario Party: The Top 100 is an awesome opportunity for new players to know the past of this series, even when the lack of the board game shows strong differences in playability.

I do hope they bring Mario Party to Switch soon, but until then, this honestly isn't a very good replacement. Not worth it unless it's a gift for a younger gamer, or you happen to get together with friends and 3DS consoles often.
Let's be clear about Mario Party: The Top 100. Its mini games are superb although not every fan favorite made it into the list. But the main and single board is boring and nothing like Mario Party used to be in the old and fun days. At least you only need one module to play four player sessions.

Mario Party: The Top 100 is an unnecessary project that was thrown into the market on a residual basis. Perhaps it is worth trying to play with the children, but in this case, several consoles of the 3DS family are needed. Game lacks online mode.
