Development
Like previous Mario Party Titles, Mario Party 8 was developed by Hudson Soft. It was first shown at E3 2006, which the Nintendo World demo of Mario Party 8 had six samples, including Barrel Lasso were players roll the controller like a lasso to grab barrels that are rotating around on a platform which different barrels give different point values, Can Shake which the goal is to shake a can of soda and make it shoot out the tallest stream by shaking the Wii Remote, A split-screen game called the Colored Ball Game were players are seated in a ship and marbles either green or purple in color fall from above and players hold the Wiimote horizontally in their hands and tilt it to tilt an on-screen platform that filters the marbles into like-colored tubes, Flag Raise, Jet Ski were players ride jet skis by steering by rotating the controller up and down like a steering wheel, and a 4-way split screen Shooting Gallery which players use the Wii Remote to aim at a target which the bullseye is different for each target.

Famous quotes containing the word development:
“John B. Watson, the most influential child-rearing expert [of the 1920s], warned that doting mothers could retard the development of children,... Demonstrations of affection were therefore limited. “If you must, kiss them once on the forehead when they say goodnight. Shake hands with them in the morning.””
—Sylvia Ann Hewitt (20th century)
“Creativity seems to emerge from multiple experiences, coupled with a well-supported development of personal resources, including a sense of freedom to venture beyond the known.”
—Loris Malaguzzi (20th century)
“As a final instance of the force of limitations in the development of concentration, I must mention that beautiful creature, Helen Keller, whom I have known for these many years. I am filled with wonder of her knowledge, acquired because shut out from all distraction. If I could have been deaf, dumb, and blind I also might have arrived at something.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
