Cruis’n USA has to be one of the most popular arcade racing games of all time. If not the most popular of all time, definitely in the mid to late ’90s. With all of that being said, you’d think I would have been happy and pleased with Cruis’n USA and the ability to now play it at home without having to pump quarter after quarter into it, right? Unfortunately no! Actually, HELL NO!

Mario Party Advance is a truly unique entry in the Mario Party series. So unique in fact, that it’s difficult to discuss it in comparison with its brethren.
