* DropTheHammer: Hammer Heads is a whack-a-mole style mini game where the four players walk around an arena scoring points by whacking the moles that pop out of the holes with large hammers. They can also use the hammer to whack their opponents, which doesn't earn them any points, but does temporarily stun them.

Minor fix.


* SpeakingSimlish: While Party Phil (and Party Penny in the sequel) does have dialogue written on-screen for the player to read, their actual voice acting consists of incoherent gibberish.

* CuteButCacophonic: The host of the game himself, Party Phil, can be on the receiving end of this thanks to his falsetto and [[SpeakingSimlish Speaking Simlish voice]] and his Muppet-like design.

Replacing inaccurate terminology. NTSC and PAL are solely used to refer to the analog connections, not the different regional releases themselves.


* AlliterativeName: Many of the minigames have alliterative names: ''Saucer Snap'', ''Pearl Plunder'', ''Tippy Traverse'', ''Feathered Frenzy''... The list goes on and on. Interestingly, the PAL version of Wii Party has far more minigames named like this.

** Rope Sling (also known as Lofty Leap in the PAL version) gives each player a chance to swing from a rope hanging from a tree, with the objective of launching themselves as far forward as they can. Players raise and lower the Wii Remote to swing forward and back, and press A to let go of the rope, with the direction in which their momentum sends them being dictated by their timing.

* MemoryMatchMiniGame: "Face Flip" is a variation on this type of minigame. The game features three rows of four cards, each featuring one of the players' Miis. Players can only turn over cards on one row at a time, starting with the top row and continuing to the next row if the chosen card features the player's Mii. The first player to find the card on each row that features their Mii is the winner, while the last player left after all other players have found their cards comes last.



* OurZombiesAreDifferent: The minigame "Zombie Tag" involves Mii getting trapped in a CreepyCemetery with seemingly classical zombies running amok and trying to turn them into other zombies. The twist is that the whole zombie thing isn't permanent: at sunrise, every single Mii (even the ones that were already zombies in the first place) turn back to normal.

** Hide-and-Peek is a 1 vs 3 mini game that is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: the team members have a choice of 7 hiding places to choose from, and the solo player has 5 chances to find everyone or the entire team wins. The fact that one of the hiding places is so small you can see any hiders without even checking does nothing to alleviate the randomness, as searching there still uses up a search that could have been used elsewhere. The team isn't completely safe either, since [[ArtificialStupidity a CPU can potentially pick the same hiding place as a player (or another CPU).]]
** Fruit Focus can potentially become this: if both players have perfect memory, the win will go to whoever the game chose to go first.

* FeatheredFiend: The ostrich in Hide and Go Beak will relentlessly peck any player it sniffs out.


Added DiffLines:

* LuckBasedMission: Yes, the sequel has these types of minigames too:
** Hide and Go Beak involves each player choosing a Bbush or patch of tall grass to hide behind, before an ostrich appears and essentially scares off random players one by one until the winner remains.
** Run to the Sun can be described as "Dicey Descent, but [[RecycledInSpace in space.]]" Pick a side, and pray your Mii isn't taken out by meteors/solar flares.

* ExtendoBoxingGlove: Tropical Punch gives each of the participating Miis an extending boxing glove as a weapon. The objective is to be the last player standing while punching the other players out of the arena. If the punch connects with an opponent's boxing glove, it will block the attack, so players must punch their rivals from the side or back to send them flying.
