Mario Party 9 (Selects) /Wii

Take your friends and family and crew captain to victory!

The party is back and bigger than ever in Mario Party™ 9 for Wii with new ways to play!

For the first time in the franchise, boss battles bring the party to life and challenge players to compete to defeat a common enemy.

In addition, players now travel through stages together in a vehicle to achieve a common goal - overcoming obstacles, fighting bosses and collecting Mini Stars stolen by Bowser™ and his minions.

With 80 new mini-games, new adventurous stages and all-new game modes that blend cooperative and competitive action for up to four players*, Mario Party 9 is the perfect way to get the party started.

- For the first time in the Mario Party franchise, each stage culminates in a boss battle.
- Collectively, players must combine forces to defeat classic enemies like Bowser™ and King Boo, while playing competitively to increase their individual scores.
- In another first for the series, players traverse stages together in special vehicles.
