7. Super Mario Party Jamboree + Jamboree TV – Best Party Game
Super Mario Jamboree – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV goes on sale tomorrow, Thursday, 24 July 2025. Tech Advisor received an early copy to test for consideration for this chart.
If you want to get your friends and family involved in playing this console, Super Mario Party Jamboree is a brilliant title for that. Choose from an array of Mario characters and go head-to-head in a series of challenges to determine the ultimate winner. Plus, the Switch 2 Edition includes some key upgrades to expand this title even further, especially if you have the accompanying camera accessory.
CameraPlay means that your feed pops up above your character, capturing your live reaction as your closest loved ones stab you in the back by stealing your stars and besting you in the mini-games. It’s wildly entertaining, especially on replays – and parents, rest assured that screenshots and screen captures are banned when the camera is in use.
The mini-games have been expanded with 20 more that use mouse controls, the built-in microphone and more, while Tag-Team and Frenzy rules give you new ways to play the main game. Outside of Party mode, the Switch 2 Edition also adds Carnival Coaster and Bowser Live. While both are fun, the latter does encourage players to shout as loud as they can to win… give your neighbours a heads up first so they know someone isn’t dying.
As this is a Switch 2 Edition, you can buy an upgrade pack for £16.99/$19.99 if you already own the base game. For that price, it would have been nice to see another map added to the world, or for CameraPlay to be implemented in the main section of the game, rather than through the Jamboree TV menu.
But these niggles don’t detract from what a great collaborative game this is, especially if you want the whole household involved.
