“Mario Party: Island Tour” Nintendo DS Arrives

Disclosure:  I did not receive anything for this post but couldn’t pass up for my readers!

Nintendo is a brand that really sums up part of my childhood.  I can still remember the day I got my first regular Nintendo game system and how exciting it was to own it before all my friends.  I played it for hours and hours…and hours.  Since then I have owned almost all the other other Nintendo systems and its a brand I will probably always own something of.

Well last month Nintendo released a new game for the Nintendo DS handheld system, Mario Party: Island Tour.  This game is the newest in the Mario Party series, which is probably my favorite game series next to classic Mario Bros.  The Mario Party games are awesome party games or just family night games!  I admit that my husband and I used to play one of the older versions of Mario Party almost nightly before kids!  I have honestly never played a DS party game like this before, but it seems like it is going to awesome, especially since you can connect to your friends DS and their game.

Face off against friends and family in an all-new Mario Party game for the Nintendo 3DS system. Connect up to 4 players* via local wireless and take on 7 new game boards, new modes, and 80 new minigames, all perfect for portable play.

In this ultimate showdown you can take on the road blaze through the 7 new game boards, some of which take just minutes to play. Wrangle goombas and blast out of cannons as you tilt, tap, and draw through new minigames harnessing the unique functionality of Nintendo 3DS. Compete in new multiplayer modes including mind bending puzzles, minigame challenges, or enter a whole new reality with AR Card play for up to 4 players*. Whether in single or multiplayer, this is a portable party that never ends.

Key Features

• Join 4 players locally in new multiplayer modes.
• 7 new game boards, each with different rules and characteristics.
• New boards and modes that take just minutes, ideal for portable play.
• 80 minigames exclusive to Nintendo 3DS.
