Mario Party DS[a] is a 2007 party video game developed by Hudson Soft and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. It is the second handheld game in the Mario Party series, as well as the last game in the series to be developed by Hudson Soft, as all subsequent titles have been developed by NDcube. The game was re-released on the Virtual Console for the Wii U in April 2016.

Like most installments in the Mario Party series, Mario Party DS features characters of the Mario franchise competing in a board game with a variety of minigames, many of which utilize the console's unique features. Up to four human players can compete at a time, though characters can also be computer-controlled. The game also features a single-player story mode as well as several other game modes.

Mario Party DS received mixed reviews, with general praise for its minigame variety and criticism for its absence of online multiplayer. The game has sold more than nine million units, making it the 11th best-selling game for the Nintendo DS. Mario Party DS was succeeded by Mario Party 9 for the Wii in 2012.
