** "Dust Buddies" can refer to two minigames in the series: a free-for-all minigame in ''Mario Party DS'' where the players must run away from a vacuum, and a 1-vs-3 minigame in ''Super Mario Party'' where two separate teams have to compete to vacuum up the most dust. The same thing also applies to "Rumble Fishing", which can either refer to a battle minigame in ''Mario Party 4'' where the players must reel in Cheep Cheeps to the Rumble Feature of the [=GameCube=] controller, and a free-for-all minigame in ''Super'' where the players must reel in a Dragoneel as quickly as possible. It also applies to "Shock Absorbers", which can refer to a duel mini-game from ''5'' where two players must avoid a multitude of Amps, and an 8-player mini-game from ''7'' where the players must press buttons when they light up or risk getting electrocuted.
** "Frozen Frenzy", a minigame from ''5'' where the player must collect 5 crystals before the other players, shares its name with a level in ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountryTropicalFreeze'', while "Cog Jog", a minigame from ''6'' where two players must race across a series of moving cog platforms, shares its name with a level in ''VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountryReturns''.
** ''4'' has a mini-game named “Money Belts” and ''6'' has one called “Money Belt”. Both appear in ''Superstars'', with the latter renamed to “X-Ray Payday”, likely to prevent confusion.
** A few music tracks share names across games, most notably, as noted above, "Slow and Steady".
