Mario and friends are transported into a toy box by the mysterious Millennium Star, set to duke it out in board game like competitions to see who can become the "superstar of the universe". The third entry of the N64 Mario Party trilogy, Mario Party 3 features 70 mini-games, two more characters, and all new gameplay modes like duel boards.
Where Mario Party 2 was a clear upgrade over the original, Mario Party 3 becomes more an 'alternative' to its own predecessor. There are various changes and additions throughout, such as the new story mode, which makes single player gameplay more appealing (albeit still painfully slow). Ultimately, in choosing between the second and third games, you can't really go wrong with either.

Mario Party 3 is about on the same level as 2, but with less memorable maps. There are a few new mini games, but none of them really stood out and there are some new characters. This is one of the first Mario games to introduce Waluigi, I think the 2nd actually, and well I don't think anyone likes this character. But there's not much to say since this almost feels like Mario Party 2.5, it hardly improves anything from the previous game and only adds a few insignificant mini games and characters. The main thing for me was the maps in this just weren't as fun and the improvements weren't big enough where this felt necessary, every time I played Mario Party 3 with my friends I always hoped we'd go back to 2 the next time.

Kinda wish they brought back costumes and cute storylines from the previous entry, but overall this adds even more to the formula, making this probably my favorite entry in the series. Music is still fantastic as well. Screw Creepy Cavern though, that map is obnoxious to play on.
imagine saying that "nobody likes Waluigi" and that "he's by far the least attractive of the Mario cast"
anyway tbh I think Mario Party 3 is kinda mid, the artstyle just doesn't work compared to MP2, the boards aren't that great and don't hold much creativity, and the power-ups aren't that well executed imo
