Mario Party 7 shot glasses

by Vladimir Cole { Jan 18th 2006 at 9:29AM }

Venturing through the Nintendo World store in New York City last week, we were surprised to stumble upon a shelf full of Mario Party 7-themed shot glasses.

You know, we hadn't really considered owning the game until Nintendo's little nudge got us thinking about the possibilities. Serious question: is there a game better suited than Mario Party 7 for proper use (and abuse) of this here beverage container?

Yeah this is a blast to do. I used to live in a house with 3 other roomates and man there was nothing quite like starting a game at 7 pm and taking shots everytime someone stole a star. By midnight we were hosed, screaming at the top of our lungs at each other for stealing stars and taking coins.

All I can remember from one night was me putting a empty beer case on my head and my roomate saying "What do you say to me stealing that star" I then proceeded to rip the box off my head and slam it on the ground while my other roomate pronounced "THATS what he says to that!"

Good times.

Warioware... insanity my friend :)

Well actually, myabe it's just great to play Drunk rather than get drunk playing. What with the whole not having any opportunity to drink... lol

It'll take a bigger glass than that to make Mario Party appear even HALFWAY worth playing, if ya know what I mean.

Curiously enough, I was taking tequila shots out of my Donkey Konga shotglass last night. :) I got it from a friend who works for Fry's Electronics. Apparently the Nintnendo rep had handed them out to them, and he got an extra. It looks pretty much exactly like those MP7 shot glasses except with the Donkey Konga logo of course.

I hear you need to be drunk in order to enjoy Matrix Online.

hahahahha shots are too painful the way my friends and i play this game. one 20 turn game for us = 30 pack.

Bomberman, but here's the catch: the winner is the one who gets the shot. That way it's more fair - the loser doesn't keep getting more and more drunk, thus making him worse of a player, and losing again, getting another shot, etc. The winner would eventually get drunk enough that sucky players actually have a chance at victory.

Best game with shots ever: Warioware

My summer favorite was "Smashed" Brothers - a shot for most kills and a shot for 1st place (out-surviving all others). Even if you are playing with novices and pros, this rule system evens out the players pretty freaking fast - by about round 4 we were all playing about the same, and when the novices started owning they got drunk just as fast.

Then, on to Army of Darkness "shot for every classic line" - yeah, you're libel to get alcohol poisoning with a rule like that.
