Mario Party DS (Japanese: マリオパーティDS Hepburn: Mario Paati Dī Esu?) is a 2007 party video game for the Nintendo DS. It is a title in the Mario Party series, and was released in Japan on November 8, 2007, in North America on November 19, 2007, in Europe on November 23, 2007, and in Australia on December 6, 2007. It is the last Mario Party game developed by Hudson Soft, who was taken over by Nd Cube for development in 2012. It was also released on the Wii U Virtual Console in April 2016. Mario Party DS was followed by Mario Party 9 for the Wii.

As with most Mario Party games, an emphasis is placed on the game's multiplayer aspect. A new element to the series is the use of the Download Play functionality of the Nintendo DS to allow four people to play wirelessly using only one game card. Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Yoshi, Princess Daisy, Toad, Wario, and Waluigi are the playable characters.
