  • Since the dawn of CZcams, we have always seen Luigi win through smoke and mirrors by doing absolutely nothing... but is it REALLY possible for Luigi to win by doing absolutely nothing in Mario Party?

      I had 2 games in a row of Bowser's Big Blast where it ended with my brother and I being the last survivors, and in both games we went 9 times each (18 presses) before one of us found the bomb. And we did this without ever changing colour. I chose yellow every time, and he chose green every time. So the bomb was in purple every time.
      You think that's unlikely? After that I had a game with my mother, and 2 CPUs. We went 24 turns before ANYONE was eliminated. All 4 players got to press a switch 6 times before the first player exploded.

    To be fair Luigi didn't do absolutely nothing since a lot of strategy went into the board play. Alpharad bought and used a lot of items very strategically, and he also carefully chose who Boo should steal from. So It's more of a "Luigi won by losing every minigame" challenge, but it's still very impressive nonetheless. I think it would have been impossible to win by doing truly nothing.
