Bounce 'n' Trounce (Mario Party 3)

Z button (in air) - Attack

I loved this one. Bounce 'n' Trounce is a game where you basically have to knock your opponents off the stage. How? By jumping in the air, and then attacking them; you attack them by first pressing A to jump, then, hit the Z button to do a twirl move that pushes your opponent forward. The more you do it in a row, the stronger and higher it'll be. I thought this one had a great resemblance to the old MP1 and MP2 mini-game; Bumper Balls. (What? It does sort of lol) What do you think of this mini-game?

I feel like I lose this mini-game more times than I win. The opponents try to push me off too quickly, giving me little time to fight off. The added difficulty of having the panels sinking down makes the room too tight.

This doesn't remind me of Bumper Balls that much, but hey, still fun.

I remember sucking b.c. I timed the jump then air-spin really badly, or just didn't get the necessary spring height. xD Or I fell off. xD

Off the topic - Mega Man, if he were playable, would knock everyone off stage with the Top Spin in like one hit? xD (MM inside joke)

Yea this isn't similar to Bumper Balls at all. I was meh at this game, I was always confused from the start and won like 25% of the time.

I hated this mini-game yet I win
Everytime I play MP3 I always hope for this mini-game not to be chosen

I have mixed feelings on this, I thought it was easy, yet it is one that you can die just for playing too long. But yeah I guess it is pretty fun.

Pretty fun to play. But only one problem...I lose too easily. I can never seem to time my jumps and air-spins accordingly, resulting in death.

Ahhh!!!
One of my favs but I was almost always eliminated pretty early...

Btw, love the background of this minigame!

The reason why it reminds of Bumper Balls cuz it has the same formula; Knock your opponent off the course with a circular object. But that's just me.

Well, bumping into them would make sense somewhat, but you're also attacking them in the air, which Bumper Balls didn't have.

I know

I didn't mean like it's exactly a like, I just think it's sort of similar to Bumper Balls.

I think its a fun minigame, but the way it works is slightly confusing to me!

It is waaaaayyyy better than bumper balls(Since you can jump and attack), and it is my favorite minigame in Mario Party 3!

I liked Bumper Balls better, I felt I had more control in that game. Then again I suck at this game.
