Which Mario Party game was released for Nintendo Switch on October 29, 2021?

Mario Party Superstars was released for Nintendo Switch on October 29, 2021.

Developed by NDcube and published by Nintendo, Mario Party Superstars is a retrospective entry built around earlier parts of the series. Its main board-game mode brings back five boards originally associated with the Nintendo 64-era Mario Party games, while its minigame collection includes 100 selections drawn from across the franchise’s history.

The release date is especially useful for separating it from Super Mario Party, which launched on Nintendo Switch in 2018. Mario Party Superstars followed three years later and emphasized classic rules, boards and minigames rather than introducing a completely new structure. It also included online multiplayer for board games and minigames, helping modernize the older-style content.

Another frequent mix-up is Super Mario Party Jamboree, a later Nintendo Switch installment released in 2024. Mario Party: The Top 100 is different again: it was released for Nintendo 3DS in 2017 and focuses on minigames rather than serving as the 2021 Switch title. The October 29 date applies specifically to Mario Party Superstars, which launched worldwide for the Switch family.
