Pachinko Wizard (Egg Drop in the British English version) is a luck-based General minigame from Mario Party: Island Tour. Its name is a reference to the song "Pinball Wizard" by the band The Who.

Introduction

Purple Toad and Yellow Toad are inside a pachinko machine. A Lakitu throws a Spiny Egg down the pachinko machine though it does not hit anybody before cutting to the players.

Gameplay

The players must choose the pachinko slot they think is the safest. A Lakitu will drop a Spiny Egg down the machine, and the player in the slot the Spiny falls into will be eliminated. The process continues until there is only one player remaining.

Controls

  • A Button/B Button/X Button/Y Button – Choose slot.
