'''''Mario Party''''' is a [[Genre#Party|party game]] released for the [[Nintendo 64]] as the first installment in the titular [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'']] series. Players select one of six ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' characters and move around the board, collecting [[coin]]s and various other items to help themselves or hinder others in their quest to collect [[Star (Mario Party series)|Star]]s. Players participate in mini-games after each turn, in which they compete for extra coins. These mini-games vary widely, from free-for-alls to pairs to three-on-ones. They test players' reflexes, puzzle-solving skills, and even luck. Certain mini-games allow players to steal coins from each other, while others grant the winner five coins from their rivals. Dueling mini-games in later installments would serve a similar purpose. This game is known for pioneering an iconic and renowned sub-series of the ''Mario'' franchise, which continues to this day, becoming one of the most well-known series in gaming.

*This was originally the only ''Mario Party'' game to have a title screen that changes; namely, depending on which character wins a board, except for Mini-Game Stadium. This concept returns in ''Mario Party Superstars'', with the title screen changing depending on the last board played.

*In [[Bombsketball]], as well as in [[Tug o' War]] if the three players win, the winning text will be shown with a grammatical error, with the singular "wins" being used instead of the plural "win" or the past tense "won". This was fixed in subsequent games.
