With or without classic mode, this game definitely stomps out MP8. Having over 80 minigames does make up for it, though. 
NEW TRAILER + NEW SCREENS

Regarding their change in the article. Notice how it says "another addition": to me, that does not sound like they are taking anything away or replacing anything, to me that sounds like they are adding another mode to the MP series. I think the car mode is an addition to the game alongside classic mode.

They have been phrasing these press releases in so many different ways. All we really have to do is wait a few weeks for one of the official sites to go live (usually the JP site) and we will get a ton of new info.
Also, welcome testing!

As SZ said all the news release places are wording things arbritarilyso no-one knows for sure
I would think that since NOJ gets the game last (unless AUS gets it later) they might not release so much info. Heck their release schedule page doesn't include April at all so I would keep an eye out on NOE and NOAm
Minigames and board mechanics all look well polished EXCEPT for the Lucky Space which we still have no clue about

You guys do know that in the first trailer they has a split second where they showed Peach playing the classic way. Right?
^Everyone's assuming that it's just a small event that Peach landed on as captain of the car. That's what I'm thinking it is, too.
Well I don't think they would take away the main way to party in Mario Party. Its been around for years why take it away? I have no doubt that Classic is still there. The car is new so they are focusing on that instead of showing old things like classic mode.
I think that's the case as well. Car Mode is something new, so obviously, they are going to focus on that the most.zacktheninja300 said:
I don't see hiw both modes can be intertwined and we have yet to see a board not be one way really.
There is no classic mode!!!!
The main focus of that game is Party Adventure mode, and there were no cutscenes showing classic mode! None at all! Also, if there were a Classic Mode, how would that be mixed onto a board like those! It will be like a MAIN ONE-WAY yet several intersections board map. And how will you buy stars!?

Unfortunately I think your right. They would have showed off at least a picture of stars in coins on the characters HUD instead of just the ministars. Plus the boards are mostly just one straight path classic cant work on them. The path leads to the boss and thats it. Unless they have different boards for classic than I highly doubt classic mode will return even though I want it to. The new developing group wants to try something new.

This is what iv'e been wondering. I think they can add a couple spaces to the boards and then it won't be one straight line.

Yea I guess they could do that but I guess the question is are they willing to do that. Cause that could end up being a lot of work depending on the board.

Game is looking sooo awesome. I might just buy it sooner than I was going to!

For classic mode, all they have to do is modify the boards slightly so it is continuous like all other MP game's boards. That won't be hard to do at all and it will barley take up any memory space I am guessing. Developers modifies enemies in some games when more than one person is playing.

I agree. Personally I think its a dumb idea for them to just completely wipe out classic mode. There has been only two trailers and a few screens of minigames. How is that enough information to rule out Classic anyway? I'm going to wait for the games release before saying for sure there isn't a classic mode though. With the car thing I don't think there will be stars. You will just drive to the end of the board and beat the boss and whoever beat the most minigames or collected the most coins and other stuff will be the winner or there may not even be places or winners just a celebration at the end for beating the boss.
I want to fight bosses alone with a damn health bar, not with teamwork! *Sigh*. Oh well, it won't be so bad fighting alongside with my friends with the bosses.
And it's still competitive since each player has his or her own score as well!TheWolfBunny said:
Possibly everyone will get Mini-Stars, but the more points you have than others, the more stars you get.Yoshiman222 said:
I do not think it's safe to rule our classic mode completely, but I am inclined to say that there may be no classic mode. After seeing this newest trailer though, I'd be fine with no classic mode; this looks just fine!
