I agree with Mario Party 8 being "ehhh", but I thought MPDS was pretty good (it was actually fun :p) I don't think the series is the most popular thing ever, but the fans of the series are still alive, and the games sold well, so I don't think it's dead yet.

Seeing how the last game got good reviews and sold over 5 million it's definitely not dead. Having a development cycle does not mean it's dead =P

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah NO!

There's no chance for a new MP, MP8 was a failure, Wii Party was a failure, MPDS was another failure (not as big as MP8)... so no, I don't think so.

Huh? What are you talking about.

MP8 and MPDS both sold great. I think we will still see at least one MP per console.

I just don't see how they can constitute as failures when they sold very well and got decent reviews (8 had a 62 on metacritic and sold over 7.6 million, DS had a 72 and sold over 5.85 million).

I would not be shocked to see a new MPDS revealed in the next 2 years for either 3DS or Project Cafe.

Wii Party has nothing to do with Mario Party seeing how it wasn't developed by Hudson Soft. And it sold 5.77 million which isn't a failure... and has a metacritic average of 70%.

Agreed. MP8 is the best selling Mario Party game to date, ranking 10th best selling for the Wii overall. MPDS also did well.

I would hope for a new MP for 3DS and/or Cafe, just don't expect it to be the typical MP outing (comparing it to the likes of MP6 going to MP7).

Why? http://www.mariopartylegacy.com/news/08102010/has-mario-party-found-its-grave

Thats why I said if anyone is going to make a new Mario Party, it's NdCube.
 
If ND Cube decides to make a Mario Party, and they had all this time, they had better been reading those reviews involving the negative aspects of MP series, because fixing those issues will ensure a better Mario Party, I hope. But I would say that there's a sliim chance of announcing another Mario Party. But I wouldn't call the series dead because Nintendo/ND Cube hasn't ever stated such a thing.

If these games sell so well, why do I have over 20 copies (which I just shipped out) in my store of MP8?

Are you seriously trying to dispute that a game that sold over 7 Million copies isn't selling well?

Seriously?

It was forced upon consumers who got the Wii at the time, so I wouldn't be surprised.
