Mario Party DS Music - Bowser's Pinball Machine

[DryBonesandSilver]

love the homage to the super mario bros underground theme

[74SonicMario]

This board was fun but boy, was it hard in Story Mode. :/

Also, considering your hatred for Bowser, I'm surprised you likie this board.

[mrbenio]

@74SonicMario I'm surprised myself. This is the only board that doesn't have anything to do with heat all over it (not counting the Zero Flame in the Zero Area, mind you. Bowser Land had cooled magma in the final cutsceene, and Warped Orbit was near a sun, so those boards count to being HOT HOT HOT). Not only that, but it's even more surprising that this was the most fun board in the game for me as well, but of course not the easiest (I have the countless turn restarts to prove that).

[bowzerbrawler789]

the only bowser board that is NOT LAVA THEMED!

[mrbenio]

@bowzerbrawler789 That could be another reason why I like it, despite the many grueling turn restarts.

[bowzerbrawler789]

@mrbenio now that I think about it bowsers warped orbit isn't as much lava themed as is space themed the only thing fire themed there is the sun in the background

[mrbenio]

@bowzerbrawler789 Well, that's close enough...

[flametorch37]

the best music of the game!

[paperthugpunk]

land on Bowser Zone AND YOU LOSE EVERYTHING!!!!

[jmario232]

Fawful is unfortunately most likely sharing a prison cell in the Underwhere with his mistress as of now. He probably won't come back unless there is extremely high demand for him to reappear. The Shroobs may come back though as hinted in Preservation Room in Bowser's Castle.

[ComJacker]

When you unlock the left and right flippers, it mentions that Bowser and Bowser Jr. play Pinball differently...

[MarioMaster9664]

There are Bowser Spaces on this Board. If you land on some of the Green Spaces on the right, they might send you to the Bowser Zone, which is an area that leads to the left side, consisting entirely of around five Bowser Spaces.

[mrbenio]

Those aren't Bowser Spaces, those are Happening (the green) Spaces that causes players who land on them to lose all their coins and Stars (by Bowser's Zero Flame).

[MarioMaster9664]

@mrbenio Really? Actually, now that I think back, I seem to recall that. I need to check, but don't feel like futilely trying to get to that area, seeing as when you want to do that kind of stuff, luck just isn't on your side.

[mrbenio]

Why not just check the map during your turn?

[MarioMaster9664]

@mrbenio I remembered it not going that far unless someone was there, like the Lucky Space areas in Mario Party 8.

[Folutu]

@MarioMaster9664 Actually, I found it pretty easy to get out of the Bowser Zone. (Then again, I always had spare Double and Triple Blocks with me at all times!)

[ramlood]

@Folutu I never went into the Bowser Zone or the Star Zone. I just, don't land on that happening space :P

[ramlood]

@ramlood Actually I did land there once but I didnt get 0 flamed.

[Folutu]

@ramlood I think we can agree that Bowser Zone won't mess you up too badly as long as you have spare Double or Triple blocks. Pinball themed courses in Mario spinoffs are always awesome!

[KWtheAcer]

@MarioMaster9664 sometime you can get to the Star Zone

[bowzerbrawler789]

so you preety much hated the bowser boards due to the detail.

[mrbenio]

That, and I'm sick of Bowser appearing in every Mario game, only to lose to the guy every time. I don't care if it's the law of video games to have the final boss (or just boss in general) lose to the protagonist, I'm SICK of Bowser. Where's Wart? Where's Tatanga? Why couldn't they remake Smithy or something? I just want a new game where Mario doesn't fight Bowser or DK (who doesn't deserve getting his rump kicked by toys) again! And furthermore, you misspelled "pretty"!

[AndrewR5D42]

@mrbenio Bowser's a good villain, although I think he hit his peak in Paper Mario where you get to see his entuire army. You want new villains, Fawful was one of the best and he's recurring, although I think he's dead as of Bowser's Inside Story.

[mrbenio]

Well, of course he's dead; he practically self-destructed.

[ramlood]

@mrbenio Litteraly all of the RPG Mario games have another person as the bad guy. Might be another RPG Mario game coming.

[mrbenio]

@ramlood Yes; Paper Mario for the N3DS.

[ramlood]

@mrbenio Oh yeahhhh XD

[MudkipYoshi]

My favorite party board! Especially the Coin Wheel and the machine that gives you ten times the coins if you hit the right picture. Hate the Bowser Zone though...

[mrbenio]

Mine too...for this game, anyway.

[Peachmagali]

Ooh...!

[Luigis1upstand]

How could you NOT think there are Bowser spaces?!?!!? IT HAS THE MOST BOWSER SPACES IN THE SERIES!!!!

[mrbenio]

But I saw many times, and there are none on this board.

[Luigis1upstand]

So wrong...You haven't been in the Bowser Zone,Huh?

[mrbenio]

Yup, and it's worse than any Bowser Space.

[Luigis1upstand]

Yeah,0 flame. I hate it,Exept when it hits someone else!

[mrbenio]

Exactly.

[SonikkuHedgehog]

I like this tune. I also like the very subtle Super Mario Underground theme slipped in there, from 0:29 - 0:38.

[mackiewackie08]

i like the part where it sounds like a carnival!

[mrbenio]

"Come one, come all!"

[pkreu008]

You actually like this board? Who would have thought that? Just try to stay away from the Green Spaces that are in the Bowser Zone.

[mrbenio]

No kiddin'. That's why they decided not to put Bowser Spaces on this board. Still, there's always a chance to land in the Star Zone instead...

[bowzerbrawler789]

what? I thought you hated bowser! and why would his board be a pinball machine?

[mrbenio]

I do hate Bowser. I'm just saying that that is actually a decent board. It's actually more arcade themed than the usual lava castle crud. Also, the players can be treated like the pinballs...getting hit by flippers, shot ouf of a cannon, being sent to the Bowser Zone via the plunger... Think about it. Oh, and technically, Bowser's not there either, so that's also a plus.

[bowzerbrawler789]

hmph! I dont have this board why? yes its because I didnt beat the story mode but another reason that reason IS THAT ITS ALL THANKS TO THAT STUPID PARANA PLANT! IM STILL ON THAT HARD BOSS! UGH!

[mrbenio]

I hate to break this to you, but none of them are really that hard. Did you even bother to read the instructions first?

[bowzerbrawler789]

hmph! for the boss? yeah. but first hit of the boss is easy the next hit is harder and the third hit is harder than the second fight with lancelot in sonic and the black knight to do! or at least thats what I think.

[PokeMagyk]

Who is the stupid to hate bowser appart from peach???
