* CommonKnowledge: A very common misconception about the series is that the disliked gameplay changes after ''Mario Party 8'' and ''Mario Party DS'' were due to the developers switching from Hudson Soft to [=NDCube=], this is actually incorrect. After Hudson Soft merged with Konami, various of its developers moved to [=NDCube=], including most --if not all-- of the core ''Mario Party'' team (such as [[https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Kenji_Kikuchi Kenji Kikuchi]], the series creator and director until ''Mario Party 5'', and [[https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Shuichiro_Nishiya Shuichiro Nishiya]], the series director since ''Mario Party 6'') as well as former Hudson president Hidetoshi Endo, who became the president of [=NDCube=]. This means that all gameplay changes that happened in ''Mario Party 9'' and ''Mario Party 10'' (as well as the spin-offs) and later ''Super Mario Party'' were all deliberate changes made by the original developers of the prior installments to switch things up, and not the result of developers changing. Likewise, the return to the original gameplay in ''Mario Party Superstars'' was a conscious decision to return to the roots made by the original developers, who remained involved with the series.

* OlderThanTheyThink: [[https://www.mariowiki.com/images/5/53/MPSR_Boxart.jpg The preliminary box art]] for ''Mario Party: Star Rush'' was mocked for using a [[https://www.mariowiki.com/File:Mario_Characters_-_Simon_Mall_Promo_Artwork.png stock image]] from Campbell's Spaghetti-Os in collaboration with Nintendo. However, despite what people believed, said stock image was already in use not long before the collaboration occurred in November 2013, with its earliest use being in June of that same year.
