Wii]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', and to a lesser extent, ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', is "pretty much the game's central theme," and that it feels more like an "honest-to-god" ''Super Mario'' game than the other entries, but complained that the game is still determined a lot by chance.<ref>[https://www.destructoid.com/review-mario-party-9-224500.phtml Destructiod score for ''Mario Party 9''.] ''Destructoid''.
