Mario Party gets dinged for a bunch of little flaws in an otherwise good product. Boogie, from what I've heard, has fundamentally weak gameplay. Hudson should really get around to addressing more of the little Mario Party flaws, but the games aren't bad, they're just stale.
Of course Mario does help a less-interesting product sell better, that's the benefit of the years Nintendo has spent building the IP. Edit: Electronic Arts could have easily inserted the Simpsons or Harry Potter (ha) into Boogie for the same effect.
