A hyperactive emcee has invited Mario and the rest of the crew to his carnival, where players will be using the Wii remote to get through dozens of new mini-games. In addition to the 14 classic main characters, you also upload your Mii character and use it in "extra-large" minigames like Star Carnival Bowling and Table Menace. However, the biggest change in the game is the engaging view of action that puts the player "on the board" with their traveling character, no longer far above the whole board looking down. Whether you're shaking up cola cans or lassoing barrels, players will be drawn into the action like never before.
