Nintendo has done a great job in reflecting and making a great status for the Mario Party game series. Yet, it is just a shame that they haven't made any strategy guide for these games, and let the third-party companies try their luck with these guides. Unfortunately, that is just a mixed grab bag. Prima's Mario Party 5 startegy guide a great display of all the different kinds of games there are to unlock for the Nintendo Gamecube classic. Although it does give a great job at portraying each game, it sometimes gripes about the use of turbo functions on third-party controllers other than Nintendo, and how you can makr and break so many different records. Which is unfortunate and constantly annoying, considering some third-party controller devices don't work very well for the Gamecube. Still, Prima's Mario Party 5 strategy guide gives a good sense of the game, when you don't have instructions for the game.

This review is from: Mario Party 5 (Prima's Official Strategy Guide) (Paperback)

I dont own this and still i can come to the conclusion, WHY THE H*** WOULD ANYONE WANT THIS??? this is mario party guide, since when do you need a list of minigames and tips, you could get that anywhere, this is a waste of money, only get it if its free in some garage sale.
