How Long does it Take to Get 999 Stars in Mario Party? 

Trying out some new kinds of shots for the B-Roll. Just got a gimbal and I tried filming my first "Stop Motion-y" kind of shot; let me know what you think! Still have a ways to go with improving on that, but it's been fun trying out new things.

Mario Party DS is also a good option, although it would require several games and tallying everything. Stone Statue has a star space that lets you buy up to 99 stars at once and if you get lucky on the final 5 turns the star price can get knocked down to 5 coins

4:11 I love how carl is using the gamecube keyboard controller

SimpleFlips and friends actually had the exact same experience with that minigame at 22:10, I think the game chose Simple to win and his friend's response was: "I would've been WAY less pissed if he just landed on the thing."

Holding the mic meta 🙏🏼

20:43 *"IMAGINE BEING IN LAST PLACE WITH ZERO STARS!"*

This is insane. Love the dedication to getting max stars and all the little optimizations along the way. Totally feel that outro. Please Nintendo!

2:17 "Or Does It" *vsauce music plays*

I wanna give some Mario Party info. I think the best option for this kind of challenge, is in Mario Party DS. Specifically on the board DK’s Stone Statue. I would do this. Set the game to 30 turns, set cpus to easy (easiest way to win minigames), and when going through the board, do not buy ANY stars. No stars. 0. Just collect as many coins as possible. When it comes to the final 5 turns, Bowser will cause 1 of 5 events to happen. 1 of them being “Stars for 5 coins.” Here’s why this is important, just like Fair Square, you can buy however many stars you want, but the only difference, is the DK’s Statue, has no cap limit on how much you can buy, so theoretically, you could buy all the stars you need with 1 single purchase. So here is the big strategy: Save all of your coins until the final 5 turns (just restart the turn if you don’t get stars for 5 coins), get a star pipe (only 15 coins lol), then once the game ends, rinse and repeat. I think this could be possible to do this in less than 24 hours. I wanna see it. Also, turn on bonus stars just to make things easier as well. It’s that simple. If you read this entire comment thank you 🙏.

15:32, 245 coins on a single turn is insane, but I got a pb of 396 coins. On Mario Party DS, on the Bowser Pinball Machine Board, theres a space where you can land on a wheel where you can gamble away 99 coins, and then if you land on the ×5, you get a total of 495 coins. The reason why it is 396 and not 495 coins is because you use 99 coins to activate the wheel, not to mention the risk of missing the x5 and losing 99 coins.

7:52 everytime Nathaniel says “yeah” with that expression I always say to myself well man is nice knowing you because the nightmare has just begun

This is why Faire Square is one of the best boards in the series even if it can be broken as something as this video tells it

I'm more surprised the game even accounted for someone getting 999 stars. Also it was funny seeing the challenge go from collecting coins to mugging boo and toadette for just playing

I want to see what happens when everyone loses/ ties every minigame, has 0 coins, 0 stars, and has no bonus stars turned on.

10:01 Steals all your money, spends it immediatly in a bad deal, refuses to elaborate. What a Chad.

If Nathanial decides to rank EVERY MOON in Mario Odyssey then that just SHOWS his dedication to his job🤯🤯🤯

15:02 this is the perfect way to use the P rank OST

I love when Nathaniel pushes videogames to their limits,It's very entertaining to watch

For a split second, I thought you were doing Mario party games in one week! (It would also seem very tiring to do though)

I knew this was gonna use Fair Square before even clicking on the video, but the strategizing actually got pretty engaging. Never would have thought about how useful it'd be to plaster paths after orb spaces with toadies, or that you'd purposefully avoid DK spaces to prevent your enemy from getting coins. The infinite turn code seems like it could lead to some really fun Mario Party marathon battles of who can reach a certain star threshold first.

I could never even get all 999 stars in all the Mario Party games and I only own the first Mario Party, most of the Game Cube Mario parties, and Mario Party 10! Also, nice job Nathaniel and everyone else who participated with him! Great video as always!

2:18 Vsauce reference was gold

Nathaniel’s thumbnail is the definition of a Professor being disappointed at one of their students. 😂

if DS had an infinite turn code, I think that board would of possibly been a better place to go for. since you basically have uncapped stars to buy you would just need to trick the game into letting bowser lower the price to 5 coins a star before activating infinite turns to really go nuts.

5:36 We interrupt Nathaniel Bandy to bring you Failboat

Taking being the superstar to the next level...

Imagine if someone made a fan game where you can activate infinite turns and get 999 Stars and there's an achievement that references this challenge.

I love how for RPG analogy you played Bug Fables music, and Bug Fables is a great RPG.

This is a super interesting video and format, I love the new B-Roll!

You have the best concepts. Thank you for the content!

I love when you do these silly challenges! Mario Party 6 is one of my favs, and this was so fun to watch :)

The highest star count I got was on DS with getting over 100 stars for completing the achievements. It was interesting watching this done on Mario Party 6 and surprisingly faster than I was anticipating.

Love your vids. Very interestingly random challenges. Would love to see more.

This was awesome!!! Id love to see try and 100% all the paper mario games!!

1:38 the board part lets you strategize plenty in the good games

I miss nathaniel swearing... I mean c'mon it's Mario Party

10:19 Fantastic renders!

Surprised you were able to get 999(+) stars that fast. Nearly the equivalent of 19 full length games (50 turns) + 1 lite game (20 turns). Congrats on getting that goal. Nice to know another person was willing to take on this kind of Mario Party challenge. I've seen several others do similar natured challenge for Mario Kart, but you're only the 2nd person I know that's done this for Mario Party

I’ve been watching you since 2019. I love your content keep it up.

nice speedrun Nathaniel!👍

Imagine King of Skill doing this

Any Nathaniel Bandy video with Carl in it is a great video! And yeah, Nathan, I agree with what you said at the end credits of doing dumb stuff until Nintendo makes new games. Here's a suggestion; playing Mario games with your teeth. I think I'm going to do that as well.

For those who don't know. This is the game where you can do multiple turns in one turn

I think this is probably one of my fav videos from you in a while. This was really fun to watch, especially with how you turned into greedy capitalists.

Great vid! I just wanted to let u know that I’ve been watching u for 7yrs and I’ve never gotten bored!

It was not a dumb challenge it was interesting and fun @nathanielbandy I love the challenge videos and watching you attempt new video game stats it's a whole new way to play these games!

I really hope The GameCube Mario Party games will become repayable on Switch or maybe the next Nintendo console, this was the golden age for Mario Party.

you somehow turned this game into the equivalent of farming certain commands on the command board in birth by sleep

999 wow! I remember playing Mario Party DS on DK's Stone Statue and reached 99 stars which is the limit of how many stars you can get in that game I didn't even know there was possible to get more than 99 Stars in a Mario Party game I never got even close to 99 in any of the other Mario Partys I've played tho with that said Mario Party DS would be another great choice for this challenge due to the chances of getting stars for 5 coins in the last 5 turns and DK's Stone Statue makes it the easiest board in that game to do such a challenge ...with multiple playthroughs on the same board

Cool! Now marathon the whole series.

LETZZZ GOO BANDY IS BACKKKK

You're crazy. In a good way. Awesome video! Really really enjoyable and well done!

Sweet! A video dedicated to Mario Party 6... It came to me in a dream some time ago and then it came!

Insane that you actually did this Bandy - insane. great show. Thank god yo udidnt do Pagoda XD as you said wouldve been miserable

WOAH THE EDITING IN THIS VIDEO WAS SO GOODDD

Amazing video.I am amazed on how quick it took and how unlucky the computer players were at the end.

Mario Party 6 is one of the best games in the series! This is a good video right here!

I love the live action responses to the slot machine

You know, Nathaniel, you can also get 999 ministars in Mario Party 9 too. No matter how many players you use, it works for all four players.

I can't wait for the sequel....how long does it take to collect 999999 stars in every mario party game. (Also here's hoping this video is a test for every mario party game 100% in 1/2 weeks....)

those orbs were startlingly high quality

“I bet you haven’t collected 999 Stars before.” [Meanwhile, at Chuggachonroy’s] “WHAT I DIDN’T KNOW YOU COULD DO THAT”

Nothing like oppressing computers to become Bill Gates in Mario Party

Omg is Carl using the GameCube keyboard 😂

It’s a great day when NB uploads

1:04 He is indeed a cool guy.

You know it’s gonna be a long vid when it says “day one” instead of hour one

Nathaniel Bandy got that Sigma mindseet ! Always hungry for the grind.

Jesus christ, you bullied those CPUs harder than an elementary school bully

7:13 YO! SO LUCKY!! CONGRATS!

9:03 I love this logo lmao. :DDDDDDD

Wow. It's incredible to me that you guys were able to find a way to make the Chance Time space a non-factor. xD

Such a cool and crazy vid. Love it!

What a really fun and entertaining video Thank you

The psychotic orb strategy you guys came up with is just, WOW

6:00 Geico Gecko!! 😂😂😂

bro nice editing

I am blown away that you did this

So you finally got all of the GameCube Mario Parties!!

Nathanial is the best Nintendo RU-vidr out there

Yoshi can finally pay his taxes

This would 1000% feel better than Sonic '06's Loading screens fr

Hi Nathaniel. I've been loving the content recently. Not too sure if you take video suggestions but a potential Pokémon Nuzlocke Marathon (I know you play it more casually) could be a cool idea given the longer, more thought out and longer to edit videos. It's a strong challenge and can be time consuming but it's an idea I'd love to see come to fruition.

18:43 FISH 🐟

i’ve been watching this channel for three years yet today i realized it’s nathaniel bandy and not bradly

Wowie zowie! So many stars! ⭐️ Wonder if there is a similar way to get infinite stars from other Mario Party games?

I was honestly expecting Boo/Toadette to land on chance time and just steal the 500+ stars. Also, I'd like to see this kind of thing for the other Mario Parties.

Nathaniel Bandy does the craziest things for us :)

"Twih-luh?" Are you insane?

You freaking Ding Dong might be the best insult I heard in a while. XDDDDDDD

Closer and closer to the next minus world Mario party video

5:35 I don't need to say it, we're all thinking the same thing.

so cool how you did you can always do this

I think it would have actually been faster to do this in Mario Party DS. The Donkey Kong board lets you buy stars at an uncapped rate, and during last 5 turns, you can get stars to go down to 5 coins. Pair that with how many coin minigames are on the board, I've seen TAS max out the star count in a single game. Obviously you aren't TAS but you could certainly get close.

You won't unsee it but... Yoshi does the MR.BEAST pose when you select him in Super Mario Party or whatever it's called.

Babe wake up, Nathaniel Bandy uploaded

I’m really curious what other games and franchises he’ll choose for these marathon challenges

That’s a crazy challenge!
