1	* AccidentalInnuendo: "Team Tuna" from ''7'''s 8-Player Mode.
2	* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation:
3	** Waluigi has polio, and any coins he wins in the games that don't go towards Stars are for the Polio Fund.
4	** According to events in King Boo's Haunted Hideaway, Boo is a deadbeat dad who ran out on his ex-girlfriend Pink Boo and their kids, and has a strained relationship with his father King Boo.
5	* DesignatedVillain: PlayedForLaughs with Mr. Doom. Anyone who's doing well is likely to get called a villain as well.
6	* EpicFail: In the Pirate Dream board in ''Mario Party 5'', [[https://youtu.be/m23g-iJFIEA&t=76m11s both bombs blew up at the same time in Defuse or Lose]], causing a draw! [[note]]Starts at 1:16:11, the start of the minigame. The explosions are at ~1:18:00.[[/note]]
7	* GameBreaker: In the series metagame, Faire Square, thanks to its star mechanics-one can buy up to five stars at a time, and at nighttime the price is randomly set, with the chance of it being as low as five coins, meaning if someone was lucky with both coins and the price of stars, they could build a sizable lead of stars that the others couldn't catch up on. (Incidentally, their [=SuperSalt=] playthrough proved their point, as Mr. Doom ended up with 26 stars.) This, along with the star stealing boards, was why they changed to determining the series winner by a points system rather than amount of stars won for [=SuperSalt=].
8	* HilariousInHindsight:
9	** At the start of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PZr_rCMrbM Toy Dream]], Holms comments that "In the next game, they should have a 0 dice block." One year later, ''9'' delivered just that.
10	** During their ''Mario Party 10'' playthrough, Steeler said Petey Piranha should be in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. Petey Piranha's later revealed to be the Final Smash of the Piranha Plant in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate''.
11	* ScrappyMechanic:
12	** To wit, Steeler's main issues with ''5'' are: the lack of shops forcing players to rely completely on the [[RandomNumberGod luck of the draw]] from the capsule machine; the fact [[HoistByHisOwnPetard you can be hurt by traps you set yourself]]; and the fact [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking he can't play as DK or Toadette]].
13	** They weren't particularly fond of ''9'', either, for many of the same reasons. No item shops, fewer mini-games, and the absence of Toadette and Boo.
14	** The voting mechanic in certain titles to decide what battle minigame to play. If two people vote for one game and two others for a second, the game will automatically [[TakeAThirdOption choose the third one]]. It's not unusual to see the guys deliberately delay voting as long as possible, as they're well aware that whoever votes last can be the ''real'' decider.
