Mario Party 8 customer reviews:

Fun, buy only in groups really..
This is a great game for all ages - Though some of the games can be difficult for young children which seems to be where Nintendo would be aiming with this title.
It's fun when you have others to play with, but without partners the game play can get stale, because it's really a "party" game.
It makes good use of the Wii controls - But doesn't offer the option to NOT use them which not everyone likes. I am not a fan of the Wii motion sensor controls, and prefer the Gamecube controllers when I play it at my cousin's house.
What about Mario Party 8?
The videogames has a normal level of fun, my only complain it's about the languages, it just have english option, and there's always text, you can't hear the voices.
A little lacking
My son and I have enjoyed the Mario Party games but with the Wii Mario Party we feel that the mini games were lacking, they could be a lot better so we were disappointed. It seems that some of the mini games that are in previous games could of been incorporated with the 8 but weren't. There are a couple of mini games that are impossible to beat when playing against computer characters.
We also think the game itself doesn't play as well as the others, for instance you get candy pieces that do different things when playing and we find that this feature doesn't really add anything to playing the game. We are just hoping that they will improve the game for when Mario Party 9 comes out.
Party Game
Fun party game I play with my siblings. Has a monopoly inspired board. A great game to bond with.
WORST MARIO GAME THAT I HAVE
When I played Mario Party 8 at a relatives house, I thought it would be very fun to have. I WAS WRONG. First, pretty boring game play. All you do is run around a board with whatever character you chose and play mini-games. Second, there is not really much to unlock. There are really only 3 main things to unlock. So pretty much it is just a board game on your TV. I am a Nintendo fan, but this is [...]. My advice is to play it at a friends house or rent it. I bought Mario Party DS, and it was better than the Wii version.
