The lights are on
If you're a fan of Replay, you're probably familiar with the difficulty I've encountered when trying to get my co-workers to play Mario Party with me (although I succeeded twice). When Mario Party 9 released earlier this month, I tried to rally some folks to play it with me for a video on the site. I was met with the usual resistance, so I decided to turn to someone with no lack of enthusiasm for partying.
Watch below to see the world's foremost party expert join Tim Turi, Andrew Reiner, and myself as we play the newest entry in the long-running series.
If you enjoyed this video, you might also want to see that time GWAR came to GI to play Dance Central.

This is pretty cool!
Reiner really looked annoyed at Dan's winning pose.
Well wait, I understand not being able to get Matt H. or (that jerk) Joe Juba, but how the hell did you get Reiner into this? He hated that Replay!
He picked it up fast for someone who hadn't played since the NES days.
WK... GI should be ashamed...
Get more guests to come on the show!
slow news day huh.
I had to google who Andrew W.K. was... I can see why Dan wants to play this...he wins every time..probably because he is the only one that cares!
I loved how Andrew W.K. tried to make sense of Mario Party at the end.
nice
That was awesome. WK's deadpan commentary was great, and it was fun seeing everyone sarcastically mock a Mario Party game without Juba just trying to sabotage it (which is fun too, but I lol'd more in this).
Ha. Andrew freakin' WK.
So. Epic.
Best video yet
Haha Dan your ridiculous, keep up the great Mario Partying. Very cool seeing Andrew W.K. swinging by the GI offices for some great gaming.
www.youtube.com/watch Andrew WK is a beast.
I love Dan's enthusiasm at having Andrew W.K. in the office to play Mario Party.
PARTY TILL YOU PUKE!
that video was both beautiful and hilarious.
This was an unexpected yet pleasant surprise!
