'''''Mario Party 6''''' is the sixth game in the ''Mario Party'' series of board game-style video games by Nintendo and is the third title in the series made for Nintendo [[GameCube]]. It is the first GameCube game to make use of a microphone add-on.
'''''Mario Party 6''''' builds upon the style and mechanics of its predecessors by offering furious four-player fun rooted in board game mechanics. The new additions in ''Mario Party 6'' include day and night cycles, new characters and mini-games, and of course, the new microphone. Two of the new characters, named Brighton (a sun) and Twila (a crescent moon) get into a heated debate over who's better. The dispute creates a day/night dichotomy that comes into play whenever playing on any of the six game boards. When you're ready to play, a pop-up book springs open and highlights your options. Party Mode is where you'll find the different board games, which you can play solo or with friends. Instead of just collecting stars, though, each board features different objectives. ''Mario Party 6'' features over 80 different mini-games.
 
== Emulation Information ==
=== Microphone Configuration ===
To enable Mic support go to Options -> Configure -> GameCube, and set Slot B to "Mic". Set its button to GCN Pad 2, it does not work on Pad 1.
 
=== Network Mic ===
Dolphin is currently unable to support microphone input with networked play. This can be worked around by reconfiguring the Mic to use a controller input under the games options menu.

=== Mowtown ===
When the Mini-game "Mowtown" begins, the grass texture will delay a few seconds to update, making the players' progress invisible for a while. This can be fixed by set the '''Texture Cache Accuracy''' to "Medium" or "Safe".  Refer {{issue|10703}}. Fixed in {{Revision|5.0-7714}}.
