Daily Debate: Should Link be Added to Mario Party?
Posted on November 07 2021 by Chakell Herbert
In light of the recent release of Mario Party Superstars, which is filled to the brim with all of my favorite nostalgic mini games and boards, I got thinking–what would it be like to have Link join in with the Mario gang for all the shenanigans of Mario Party? Considering that our favorite hero in green has already sped down the raceways of Mario Kart and blended in beautifully, I don’t see how busting dice blocks at the party as well could be that far-fetched! Perhaps even more of our favorite Nintendo characters could join in the fun of mini games, chance time, and the bonding (and sometimes friendship-ending) glory that is Mario Party. Maybe there could be a Zelda-themed board or mini games? I would be all for it!
But what about you? Do you think it would be fun to have Zelda crossover with Mario Party? Let me know in the comments!
