Mario Party: Star Rush - Full MiniGame Rankings

- Hello everybody, SlimKirby here, and it's time for another minigame ranking video, this time for Mario Party: Star Rush!
More people need to play this game, lol. Seriously, this is one of the most underappreciated Mario Party games, and sure, it probably didn't help that Nintendo probably turned people away due to their last few titles, but still, definitely a diamond in the rough as far as Mario Parties are concerned.
As I mention in all of these videos, as usual, this list is purely my opinion, so we may not see eye-to-eye on some placements and how I ranked certain mini-games, and that is absolutely ok. Feel free to discuss your own changes or placements in the comments section below. Also, i am back to streaming Mario Party on Friday for "Thank God, It's Mario Party Friday" on my Twitch channel! Check the links section below for the link if you want to check that series out!
I think that's all I got to say, so let's get things moving with the Mario Party: Star Rush MiniGame Rankings!
Note: For those wondering about the thumbnail for this video, on Twitter I asked what minigames come to mind when thinking about Mario Party: Star Rush. The responses were very few, but some standouts came to light and I found some ones to go with!

I remember when I first played Star Rush I went into it thinking that it would be rubbish because of it rejecting the standard gameplay seen in the usual Mario Party games, which was present in Mario Party DS. However when I had played the Balloon Bash mode, I was more hooked to that than I was to Toad Scramble. If that was the actual mode of the game and players took turns after rolling their dices as they’d move across the big boards, then I think that it could’ve gained a better reputation. As it stands, I think it works as a proof of concept that carried over well into Super Mario Party.

lol, glad you approve of the game more than a majority of people.
This game is definitely underrated in the MP series. The Toad Scramble mode was a cool new take on the board gameplay, and if it had new boards as DLC, I probably would have paid for them. As for the ranking itself, my list would be similar, with my only major differences being Block Busters, which I actually enjoy because of the risk and reward of shooting the others' blocks to reach your own quicker, Piece of Cake, which I dislike because it drags on way too long for my liking with the timer and the transitions, and Piranha Planetmonium, which I'm mostly neutral on since it can either go pretty well or not so well depending on who gets the big golden plant.
Best Mario Party for the 3DS.
I see this game as the most potential as an appreciated formula of Mario Party. Maybe I’ll expand on it. Who knows?
33:24 you got your wish
Dang, it looks our lists were more different compared to the others lol. That’s alright though, everyone has different opinions. Not surprised that Fruit or Foe and Blowboat Battle are at the bottom two, I never even liked those two minigames anyways. I think Fruit or Foe is visually really cute, but yeah, it’s just another bad and underwhelming luck-based crapshow. That’s especially coming from someone who loves and is a defender luck-based minigames. There are exceptions however, that I can’t just overlook or even defend those games because even I don’t like them. Great list overall Slim, can’t wait for The Top 100 Ranking, I’m going to predict that Pier Pressure will be at the bottom, and Dizzy Dancing is at the top spot. Maybe even Strawberry Shortfuse will be at the bottom. While I love Strawberry Shortfuse dearly, I can understand why many people don’t like it.
31:10 darn was hoping you'd say that Hit or missile mania was more of a missile than a hit. ... That is all.

To me, Star Rush and Island Tour have always been opposites. Island Tour has a fantastic selection of minigames (one of the strongest in the series imo), but everything else about the game flounders and makes it one of the bottom Mario Party games. Meanwhile, Star Rush has amazing main game modes that makes it one of the best in the series, but a pretty mediocre minigame lineup. There are certainly good ones, but way more bad or at least "eh" minigames than usual. And even the great ones don't really stick in my mind too much as being standouts.
Wish this game got the credit it deserves. It's one of my favorites in the series.
As a Mario party star rush speedrunner I agree of the last place that main games suck ass
