Short answer

Mario Party 4 runs natively on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android phones and Meta Quest through Party Board, a port built on the GameCube decompilation, with online play for four, widescreen and up to 240 FPS. You need a disc image of your own copy. Latest release: 0.21.0, 30 October 2026.

What it is

Mario Party 4 came out on the GameCube in 2002 and has never been re-released.

The marioparty4 decompilation by the mariopartyrd team rebuilds the game’s code; its README says “the two USA versions are completely matching”. The team is building its own PC port, partyboard, and states there is “NO working PC port yet” from them.

Meanwhile Party Board by zeranemesis offers “Mario Party 4, natively on PC, phone and Meta Quest, with online play for up to four players”. Its README stresses: “Party Board is a native port built on the GameCube decompilation, not an emulator.”

Current status

  • Status: Working. The repository started in August 2026 and releases come out every few days.
  • Latest release: 0.21.0, 30 October 2026, for Linux (AppImage), macOS (Apple silicon and Intel), Android phones, Meta Quest and Windows.
  • Switch: a homebrew build exists in source form but “not run on a console yet”, per the README.

What you need

  • A disc image of your own Mario Party 4: USA rev 0 or rev 1 (GMPE01) or European (GMPP01). ISO, RVZ, WIA and GCZ are accepted and checked by hash. Japanese discs are recognised but not supported yet.
  • A device: Windows, Linux, Mac, an Android phone or a Meta Quest.

We do not link, host or explain how to get a disc image.

FAQ

Is there a Mario Party 4 PC port?

Yes, unofficially. Party Board, by zeranemesis, is a native port built on the Mario Party 4 GameCube decompilation, running on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android phones and Meta Quest. It is not an emulator, and you need your own disc image.

Can I play Mario Party 4 online?

Yes. Party Board has online play for up to four players through its lobby, opened from the Party Board menu (F1). The README says the USA rev 1 and European discs are supported online.

Which Mario Party 4 discs does Party Board accept?

USA rev 0 and rev 1 and the European release (in English, French, German, Spanish or Italian). The Japanese disc is recognised but not supported yet. ISO, RVZ, WIA and GCZ images work and are checked by hash before launch.

Is this the official decompilation project's port?

No. The mariopartyrd team, which made the decompilation, is working on its own PC port called partyboard and says there is no working port from them yet. Party Board by zeranemesis is a separate project built on their decompilation.

Does Party Board have widescreen?

Yes. An adaptive widescreen HUD fills any aspect ratio up to 48:9 without stretching, and you can lock 4:3. The frame rate can go from 60 to 240 FPS while the game logic stays at 60.
