Doraemon Wii with Yoni

In this Mario Party-type game, each player crosses the board for a given number of times. After the 3rd player reaches the finish space, the game ends. Players can store up to four gadgets.

Unlike most party games, each character has their own special ability. Doraemon obtains random gadgets. Nobita forces all other places to roll a 1 for a few turns. Shizuka temporarily disables other players' ability to use gadgets. Suneo automatically gains a few points. Gian beats up the other players and steals up to 2 of their gadgets each. Dorami can choose how many spaces she wants to move (1-3 spaces) for 2 turns.

Although the gadgets have a variety of effects, a lot of them involve taking points from other players. There's even a gadget where one player swaps locations with another player, and another gadget that sends all players to random spaces. It would have been nice if you could sell the gadgets you didn't want to use.

Mini-games are played by stopping on a mini-game space, or after the last player reaches the finish space after the first or every few laps. The mini-games can get repeated multiple times within a board. 

 
One of the biggest hurdles (at least for me) is figuring out the motion controls in certain mini-games. Especially for two of them that involve the Minidoras, the go-kart mini-game and the Guidance Angel mini-game.

Having been released 2 years after the 2005 anime premiered, 8ing did a fantastic job representing the game. The locales look like they were taken straight out of the 2005 anime, and they look really nice in this game. They actually got Chiaki to provide voice clips for Dorami, unlike FuRyu's movie games where she only has text with no voice clips to accompany them.

Dorami is unlocked after finishing all 6 boards at least once.

One might like to try another party game starring Doraemon (as well as other characters from the same creators), Fujiko F. Fujio Characters Daishuugou! SF Dotabata Party!. Compared to Doraemon Wii, it had only 19 mini-games, didn't use any motion controls, the games ended much faster, and it featured a lot of unlockable details about the various Fujiko F. Fujio franchises. Both games even featured a similar mini-game where the characters fly with a take-copter, or in the case of Fujiko Party, other forms of transportation.

Speaking of both games, I wonder who's the merchant who appears in both Doraemon Wii and Fujiko Party, and what manga he appeared in.

Oh, and this game gets bonus points for including Tsubasa Ito:
