Mario Party 2 is kind of an overrated game, in my personal opinion — everything it did, its sequel (Mario Party 3) did much better. The only backup support I’ve seen for MP2 is for the costumes.

While on the subject of Mario games, Mario Sports Mix is - dare I say - the best Mario game ever made. This may just be bias due to my childhood nostalgia, but it was - and still is - an incredibly fun game that has aged very well after 13 years. Not only does the game see competitive play, it also has a speed-running scene that is sadly not very active at the moment.
