Let's talk about this one.
After that piece of crap, known as 8, Hudson made one last Mario Party game before they stopped completely, and that game was Mario Party DS
This one is one of my favorites. The boards were pretty well-designed, the minigames were great, and made good use of the DS's touch screen (with a few exceptions, *coughs*Trace Cadets*coughs*) and it had the best item system in any Mario Party game yet.
My only issue with the game was the smaller amount of boards, but I can forgive that since it was on smaller hardware.
What's your thoughts on this one?
