Wii Party (Wiiパーティ Wī Pāti?) is a party video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii video game console. The game heavily borrows game play elements from the Mario Party series, another Nintendo franchise. It is also the first game in the Wii series that Shigeru Miyamoto did not produce. The game was released in Japan on July 8, 2010, in North America on October 3, 2010, in Australia on October 7, 2010, and in Europe on October 8, 2010. Wii Party was first revealed by Satoru Iwata in a Financial Results Briefing on May 7, 2010. It has met with mixed reviews from critics and sold 9.24 million copies worldwide as of September 2016. A sequel, Wii Party U, was released for the Wii U on October 25, 2013.
Wii Party features 9 different game modes divided between three categories: Party Games, House Party Games, and Pair Games. Most of the game modes integrate use of Wii Party's 80 mini-games. The game also offers additional modes that make exclusive use of the mini-games.
Party Games are games in which four players compete against one another. In all party games except Spin-Off if the minigame ends in a tie, a die roll decides.
A player roll dice(s) and proceeds the indicated number of steps (Mii characters are used as players' game pieces). The order players roll the dice each round is decided by a minigame. Players who come in first, second or third win a bonus die to roll along with the standard die. The player who reaches the top of the island first wins.
