No, there will NOT be a TL;DR. Read the whole thing if you do care, otherwise don't.

Mario Party 6 is one of my favorite games EVER. It's my favorite of the GCN Mario Parties. Actually, it's my favorite Mario Party of the WHOLE SERIES!!
It all started when I was 6 years old. (Was in Grade 1) (Currently 14
) My childhood friend came over. She said she had a new game to bring. I was EXCITED as hell to try it out! That game was Mario Party 6. We played it along with my sister and her sister. It was one of the best times of my life.
So we do a Party Mode. We played Faire Square, 20 turns. (Unfortunately we couldn't finish it
) At first, I didn't understand the mechanic of this board, nor the new features in this game. So I was pretty lost. XD
We play mini-games after every turn. (duh, that's how it's been in all except for Mario Party 9 LOL) From what I remember, we played Granite Getaway, Ball Dozers, Crate & Peril, Full Tilt, Daft Rafts and Control Shtick. I was having a LOT of fun playing, even if I lost most if them. (It was my 1st time playing and my friend played it before, what'd you expect XD)
So when my friend finally got to the star space, she bought multiple stars. I was like "WTF YOU CAN DO THAT?!?!?!?" because no Mario Party I've played before had that mechanic. So when I got there, I bought as many stars as I could. Which was 3.
(I had 67 coins XP)
My friends begin to use their orbs and sets them on the board. I was like "Huh?" then I learned that if you landed on someone's character space, you will suffer. I loved the concept of it. I tried to get as many orbs as I could and set them on the board. XD
So then Night falls. I learned about another mechanic: Day & Night. During the Night, Twila could change the price of the stars. When she hit a 5, I was like "OH. MY. GOD." My friend got as many stars as she could. I unfortunately lacked coins from buying them in the daytime and plus I was after the star space so I had to make that long circle. XP
So then... My friend unfortunately had to leave. I was sad that we had to stop because I was amazed and was having the time of my life and didn't want to stop. But I was VERY, VERY, GRATEFUL for her bringing this game over. So I was like "Someday, I'm going to get this game."

So one day... (Was still in Grade 1) I got a bit sick. I couldn't go to school. It was just me and my mom. We had to go to the mall. (She had to do shopping and I can't be home alone
) I was impatient for her to finish buying her stuff.
...But then. We walk buy an EB Games. I asked if I could buy a game. We go inside, I frantically searched for Mario Party 6. It was there. I was like "OH HELL YEAH, I'M SO GETTING THIS!!!!! :D" We finally get home. I rush to turn on my Gamecube and start playing.
I was having like the best time of my life. I play Towering Treetop, 20 turns, CPUs on Normal. (A completed game this time ;p) I was having SO MUCH FUN!!! So then after everyone takes their turn, I was excited for my 1st mini-game. (By myself
) Guess which mini-game it was? It was... DAFT RAFTS. I was a bit confused on the rules a first, but after a few practices, I got the hang of it. My first few practices, I fell into the water/touched a Spiny. XD I do the real game, where it counts. I won the 1st mini-game. :D
I also remembered I played Cannonball Fun and Same is Lame, but that's it. XD Though Same is Lame frustrated me and still does to this day. XP
I finally get my 1st star. (and was the 1st one to get it :D) But then the star goes to a faraway location...
When I got my first Orb, I was like "OMG YES ORBS!!!!". I'd set my Red/Yellow Orbs ASAP and laughed when my rivals paid the price. It filled me up with Joy and Excitement.
Night falls, then I learn about the Pink Boo house. I was like "Oh hey that's like Chain Chomp from Mario Party 5". I visit him, and be devious and steal stars. :D Fortunately my rivals never got to visit him. XD
At the end of the game, guess who won?!?! IT WAS ME!!!!! I had 6 stars and 70+ coins. (Approximate, don't remember how much exactly XD) I was so happy that I tried another board. Faire Square.
So, I do Faire Square. I was like "OMG I REMEMBER PLAYING THIS BOARD WITH MY FRIEND!!! :D" I remembered the Slot Machine, the Orbs, the buying of multiple stars... I was in Heaven. :D
It was like the best time ever. And whenever Twila made the stars 5 or 10 coins, I was like (Gold) MUSHROOM, GO GO GO!!!!! Because of that, I ended up with like 30+ Stars. It was fantastic and had the best time ever. I had won again. :D
__________________________
I loved this game so much to the point where I'd study which Orbs appear on which boards, where the set Star Space locations are... Yes, I am that nerdy about this game. XD
I loved PRACTICALLY EVERYTHING about this game. The boards, the Day & Night, the Orbs, the mini-games, the music and more!!!!! My favorite boards are E. Gadd's Garage and Faire Square. E. Gadd's Garage might be a simple board, but the Orbs available and Scientific theme made it amazing!!!!! And for Faire Square, I love the concept of buying multiple stars and the Orbs (though not as good as E. Gadd's Garage, but still good :D) and it was the 1st board I played with my friend.
Though there are mini-games I hate, like Same Is Lame, luck based games, Ray of Fright (on the Team) and Conveyor Bolt (Only at Night and if I'm the Lone player) Those mini-games I can only win if I'm lucky. XD
Mario Party 6 is a game I LOVED AS A KID AND STILL LOVE IT TO THIS DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
