Nintendo piques interest in "Mario Party 6" by coat-tailing recent election news.
Mario Won't Concede Election, Declares 'The Mario Party Is Just Getting Started'
Despite recent events in Ohio, video game icon and presidential candidate Mario™ is refusing to concede victory. The leader of the Mario Party vowed to continue his campaign through Dec. 6, when his new game, Mario Party® 6, launches.
Mario launched his campaign a year ago, and early exit polls indicate he did especially well among princesses, apes and residents of the Mushroom Kingdom.
"After a long political season, people need a party that offers something really unique," explains Mario. "Mario Party 6 meets the global test for fun."
Mario Party 6, made exclusively for Nintendo GameCube™, plays like a board game on a television. The boards change as the clock shifts from day to night. The game also includes more than 80 new mini-games, sure to delight players from all corners of the political spectrum.
Mario Party 6, Rated E for Everyone, will sell at an MSRP of $49.99.
