Goomba's Booty Boardwalk (JP) is one of 6 boards in Mario Party 8. A Star can be accessed on the course by reaching Captain Goomba on the other side of the course. There are a lot of obstacles on this stage as well, including an Event Space near the end of the course that if you land on it, some Goombas will grab you, throw you in a cannon and blast you back to the beginning of the course. The course itself appears as a boardwalk over the water, with lots of obstacles and helpful features. A secret area can be accessed on this course by landing on the Lucky Space. A dolphin will bring you to an island with 7 Blue Spaces to a secret Star, all of them covered with coins.
In the Star Battle Arena, the player (or the opponent) wins by acquiring one star. But the star is 50 coins. The player or the opponent must collect 50 coins and make it to Captain Goomba first. If they reach him and don't have 50 coins, he allows them to roll a coin block. Then the Pirate Goombas will use their cannon to launch them back to the start. The board (in Star Battle Arena version) is also a completely linear path with no alternate paths to take (and no longer has the small village), the Candy Shop is closed (Candy can only be obtained from the Candy Area), and Dolphins --via the Dolphin Expresses-- can only be occur if players land on one of the Event Spaces (which is a free of charge).
Events[]
- If a player land on an Event Space next to a yellow Pianta, the Pianta will throw them ahead on the board.
- If a player lands on an Event Space next to a fishing blue Pianta, the Pianta will fish up a piece of Candy, which he will then give to the player. However, if the player's inventory is full, the Pianta will keep the Candy.
- If a player lands on the Event Space next to the shipwreck, they will go inside it and find a chest that contains Coins.
- If a player lands on the Event Space next to Captain Goomba's ship, the Goomba Pirates will pick them up, throw them into a cannon, and launch them back to the very beginning of the board.
- When you reach one of the arrows on the board, you have the option to trade a dolphin a random number of coins in exchange for riding ahead on the board on their backs.
- If a player lands on the Lucky Space, a dolphin will take them to a secret island. The Lucky Space area is 5 Blue Spaces long. There is a small path of Blue Spaces (each with 3 coins) and it leads them to a free Star. When the player summons the Goomba idols, they (angrily) tell the player the gods need their beauty sleep. Then they give the player a star --begging the player to take the star and go away-- and order the seagulls to send them back to the Lucky Space (so they --the Goomba idols-- can get back their beauty sleep and the player can continue from the Lucky Space).
- If a player lands on a DK Space, Donkey Kong will appear and make the player deposit 5 Coins into a DK Barrel, which the player must then shake with the Wii Remote to get more Coins back. The player can get between 11 and 25 coins. If the player has zero coins, Donkey Kong gives them 10 Coins instead.
- If a player lands on a Bowser Space, Bowser will arrive and summon three Podoboos to attack the player three times, causing them to lose 30 coins (10 coins for each hit). To avoid this, the player must use the Wii Remote to jump the Podoboos at the right time. If the player has zero coins, Bowser gives the player 10 Coins instead.
