Unlocking characters in future Mario Party games

[Mario Sports Mix]

Smash Bros: Meet the requirements in unlocking a character, then beat them in a minigame (or a one stock match in the case of Smash Bros). If you lose, you have to meet the requirements again for another shot.
Mario Kart: Simply meet the requirements. The character will be unlocked afterwards.
Mario Party 6 and Mario Party 7: Buy the character from the game's bank.
Mario Party 8 and Mario Party 9: Beat the story mode once (or twice in the case of 8).
Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Super Sluggers: Find the character in the story mode and he or she will be unlocked after beating the challenge given to you (or the level in Brawl's case).

I'll say either Smash Bros or Super Sluggers, but make the adventure mode a little more challenging and not too long.

"Mario Kart" and "Mario Party 6 & 7"

Which is "Meet the requirements to unlock the character (or whatever) in the shop, them buy them there".

Mario Sluggers/Smash Bros. Brawl.

I'd say just unlock it, I don't want to have to meat requirements, then go against the computer, lose and not get them.

I love the way you unlock characters in Smash Bros. I love having to meet the requirements and then having to annihilate them in a battle ;D. The computer should be master and the mini-game should be completely random so it is not impossible to unlock them. I hate having to collect coins to unlock characters because it is long and tedious. Then, all you do is click 'buy' and nothing happens... How boring...

I think the shop is fine. It makes to better since you aren't forced to unlock a certain character you don't want.

I agree, but I think that it should be a predetermined minigame and the CPU level should be the last level you selected. So if I last selected Master, the CPU I'm fighting is that level.

I like to just purchase the characters I unlock.

Purchasing items are very cool - if characters are available this way, many other things would be as well.

I love the unlocking of characters in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Super Sluggers!

I could go for about 5 unlockable characters.  Buying them in a shop could be pretty good and the Brawl idea is also very original.  I would not mind seeing this formula.
