'''Orbs''' (known as '''Capsules''' in ''Mario Party 5'') are special items found in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]], in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', and ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. However, in ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', they are replaced by [[Candy (Mario Party 8)|Candy]], which are used by a player only on themselves. [[Hex]]es from ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' are similar, in that they can be laid down on spaces. | '''Orbs''' (known as '''Capsules''' in ''Mario Party 5'') are special items found in the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]], in ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', and ''[[Mario Party 7]]''.

== Capsules == | ==Capsules== | ||
Capsules are seen in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''. Players receive capsules from [[capsule machine]]s for free. Capsules are never obtained through a purchase. A player may use the capsule on themselves for a certain number of coins, and consequences will take effect immediately. For example, a player can use a [[Mushroom Capsule]] for five coins, then immediately roll two Dice Blocks. Players can also use capsules on themselves even if the effects would be negative. A player can also throw a capsule up to ten spaces ahead, where the space will become a [[Capsule Space]]. Thereafter, any player landing on that space will be subjected to the effect. If a player did not wish to spend five coins to use the Mushroom Capsule, they may throw it onto a space ahead of them. As capsules cannot be thrown backwards, there is always a certain risk in placing one on the board. | Capsules are seen in ''[[Mario Party 5]]''.

If used on a player, the capsule will cost a certain amount of coins to activate, ranging from 5-20 in most cases. | If used on a player, the capsule will cost a certain amount of coins to activate, ranging from 5-20 in most cases. | ||
== Orbs == | ==Orbs== | ||
Orbs are available in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]''. Specific Orbs can be purchased from an [[Orb Shop]], and random ones can be obtained from [[Orb Space]]s for free whenever a player passes one. Some Orbs, such as the [[Mushroom Orb]], can be used on the player, always for free. Some Orbs, such as the [[Spear Guy Orb]], can be thrown onto a space to create a [[Character Space]]. Orbs can be thrown up to five spaces ahead or backward. Unlike with a Capsule Space, a character is immune from the negative effects of the spaces they (or their teammates) create; instead, they earn five coins for landing on them. Some Orbs, such as the [[Zap Orb]], can be thrown onto a space to create a [[Roadblock]]. These affect any player who ''passes'' by the space (not just those who land on it) and the effects occur immediately. Players are immune from effects of Roadblocks they place. | Orbs are available in ''[[Mario Party 6]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 7]]''.
