Identifying Luck: Mario Party 5

The longest Identifying Luck yet! Hope you enjoy!! Any "broken" timestamps are intentional so YouTube's chapter system doesn't count them. THERE IS NO STAR CYCLE; PLEASE DISREGARD THAT PORTION OF THE VIDEO (Phanpy Ken) CORRECTIONS: I'm bound to make a few mistakes with a video of this much length. If you find any issues then feel free to let me know and I'll correct them down below, along with giving you credit! 50:07 - The Bubble and Wiggler Capsules should've been grouped here with the Movement Capsule Icon (IceGrill _) 1:13:35 - When a player is on the same space that the cannon sends to, they lose 5 coins (YoshiYay!) 1:22:20 - Should've mentioned that the Taxi will still take you to the other side even if you don't have 10 coins, in which case you'll lose everything you have (BöseJörgeli) 1:46:17 - Gold Cheep Cheeps are actually worth 3 points! The game's advice screen incorrectly states 2!! (GoldMario777) 1:53:55 - "Hotel Goomba Level Three's Top Right solution has a redundant input"; input number 2 is not necessary, you are free to make input number 1, followed by number 3 and 4, clearing the puzzle! (Gaming_Bigfoot) 2:37:36 - The statistics on the screen aren't meant to be 100% accurate; Fate's Decision can win, it's just that in all of Spongyoshi's testing, it never did, meaning it's a pretty bad vehicle to choose! (Trisbit) 2:52:10 - "For Pound Peril the buttons that have already been hit have the star on the center stop lighting up. It’s a small difference but it’s noticeable." The best example is at the timestamp shown, where the leftmost button is the only one that hasn't been pressed; you can see it has a faint glow when compared to the others! (Vibe Master) 2:56:37 - "You accidentally said 'Thwomp' instead of 'Whomp'" (PAWPatrolFanatic)

Somewhere out there are VERY lucky groups of four people watching these videos, and then immediately jumping into the games with all the info they learned, and I envy them.

“Who’s gonna watch a 3 hour long video about a child’s party game?” “*OH BOY A NEW MARIO PARTY LUCK EXPLAINED VIDEO*”

"Draw your last pathetic capsule so I can end this board, Koopa Kid!" "Eldstar's Capsule Machine has no pathetic capsules, Waluigi. But it does contain... the unstoppable Miracle Capsule!"

I love how he just breaks down when talking about Sweet Dream's party Happening space

I had to rewatch all the previous "Identifying Luck" waiting for this one to be released.

I love how in every intro the "Mario Party" sounds like a mix of drunk and dead inside.

1:28:30 absolutely classic. My favorite moment of this whole series. The sweet dream mental breakdown will undoubtedly be one of the best things on zoomzike on 2021.

"It's free, this really is the future!" "They take your money and yeet you to the other side... this really is the future." I'm dead

FINALLLLLLLLY Edit: zoom you don’t understand how much these videos help me, I watch one almost every week either to fall asleep or just to learn something

Ah yes! The first of the "Capsule Mario Parties" When we were younger, my step brother and sisters and I made a few house rules when playing MP5... "No using ANY Capsules on yourself, and no covering already placed capsules until EVERY space was covered! Furthermore, you must place a capsule the first turn you can, unless there are no blank spaces to cover up" Lemme just say, it turns the entire board into a MINEFIELD by the end, ESPECIALLY on 50 turn games!! 10/10, would HIGHLY recommend!

Can we just give this guy credit due to the fact that there were no ads whatsoever?

Hi Zoomzike! I’m Kaitosage’s girlfriend and just wanted to say thank you for giving him an awesome shoutout! We watched the video together and I just about screamed when we saw his name and research pop up! I know it was a great experience for him to work with you and share his knowledge, and I’m impressed you were able to take such a complicated system of the item capsules and turn it into something understandable to a layman like myself. Keep on making great content and thanks again for giving him a chance to show off his skills!

Faire Square sounds like a nightmare when doing your “Identifying Luck: Mario Party 6” video.

This is gonna be interesting. 5 is such a mess of luck and weird mechanics.

1:01:48 The closest star spaces in Mario Party history are actually in Bowser’s Enchanted Inferno in Mario Party 7. On the right island, the star spaces have zero spaces between them, meaning you can get two stars in one turn by simply rolling a one. Truly the peak of board design.

crushes someone “All capsules are lost.” melts into nothingness

Me: "Mom, can we go watch the Mario movie?" Mom: "No, we have the Mario movie at home." The Mario Movie at Home:

I like how Mario will float up ladders while his ass is burning to a crisp

I would like to give you a strange shout out: Thank you for this series for it's original purposes, but your even cadence/ speaking tone crossed my mind while I was sleep deprived socializing and taming a group of kittens I caught, I needed someone/something to keep talking in a conversational tone while I dozed off to keep getting these guys used to TVs and people. So I popped you on my desktop and let the playlist play all night. So thank you very much for being a part of socializing these babies for their future homes :]
