Fun if your playing four player, otherwise don't bother.
The graphics look like GameCube, and don't look an better than the last mario party.
The sound doesn't differ much from the rest of the series. but fits the mood.
Value is excellent... you can play this with other friends and still have a fun time playing it. I would highly reccomend it to the younger game players, as the mini games are quite simple.
Overall, it's a pretty good buy.
