It retains the basic gameplay aspects from previous ''Mario Party'' titles, where up to four players roll dice to move around a board, earning coins from landing on [[Space]]s, events, or winning [[minigame|mini-game]]s played at the end of every turn to buy [[Star (Mario Party series)|stars]]. Features introduced in previous ''Mario Party'' games such as the introduction of the usage of [[List of items|items]] from ''[[Mario Party 2]]'' to assist players against their opponents and the ability to carry up to three items from ''[[Mario Party 3]]'' return. New elements introduced in ''Mario Party 4'' include the ability for players to team up in pairs in Party Mode, creating a custom mini-game pack selected entirely by players of the game, and the first ''Mario Party'' game to introduce side-collectibles in the form of presents. It is also the only ''Mario Party'' game so far to have pre-rendered cutscenes. The game is notable for introducing boards fully rendered in 3D, though the navigational board space layout remains flat until ''Mario Party 5''. Additionally, the game completes a revamp in the 3D art direction of the ''Super Mario'' franchise that started with ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'' and continued with ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. ''Mario Party 4'' requires two blocks to save on the memory card, and it contains up to three save files. | It retains the basic gameplay aspects from previous ''Mario Party'' titles, where up to four players roll dice to move around a board, earning coins from landing on [[Space]]s, events, or winning [[minigame|mini-game]]s played at the end of every turn to buy [[Star (Mario Party series)|stars]].
