'''Snow Go''' is a Free-for-All [[minigame]] featured in ''[[Mario Party 9]]''. The name is a pun on the phrase "no-go," which means something failed. The main objective of the minigame is similar to that of [[Slot Car Derby]] from ''[[Mario Party]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', [[Water Whirled]] from ''[[Mario Party 3]]'', [[Later Skater]] from ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', [[Kart Wheeled]] from ''[[Mario Party 7]]'', and [[Kartastrophe]] from ''[[Mario Party 8]]''. The concept of avoiding snowballs that [[Mr. Blizzard]]s throw at players was also used in the ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' minigame [[Mr. Blizzard's Brigade]].

Snow Go is a Free-for-All minigame featured in Mario Party 9. The name is a pun on the phrase "no-go," which means something failed. The main objective of the minigame is similar to that of Slot Car Derby from Mario Party and Mario Party 2, Water Whirled from Mario Party 3, Later Skater from Mario Party 5, Kart Wheeled from Mario Party 7, and Kartastrophe from Mario Party 8. The concept of avoiding snowballs that Mr. Blizzards throw at players was also used in the Mario Party 4 minigame Mr. Blizzard's Brigade.

Introduction

The camera zooms in on the players, then zooms out to show the entire course.

Gameplay

Players in snowmobiles try to be the first to complete five laps around the track. About every 4.5 seconds, two Mr. Blizzards in the middle of the course throw snowballs that freeze any player they hit. A frozen player must shake Wii Remote to escape. About halfway around the track, there is very thick snow that slows down any player that goes through it. Players can avoid this section by taking the dash ramp. The minigame ends after one player completes five laps.

In Time Attack, the player must complete ten laps in the snowmobile. The bonus objective can be accomplished by using the dash ramp on every lap.

Like 10 to Win, Logger Heads, and Pizza Me, Mario, this minigame ends when one player reaches the goal.
