Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

[Yes]

Is the issue present in the latest release? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest release.

[Yes]

If the issue isn't present in the latest release, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

[First broken version number here (if applicable)]

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

[PC specs here]

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

[Anything else here]

Do you have to go through the Wii Menu setup process specifically during the same Dolphin launch as running Mario Party 8?

Hi. No, just the first time. Then it will happen everytime just by launching MP8 without entering the Wii system menu at all.

But for the issue to happen, seems you need to have the system menu installed.

Doesn't Mario Party 8 in general have some issues with 16:9? I wouldn't be surprised if the game is being a jackass.

Can't argue with that :D

It was rushed to the market and some weird decisions were made.

It has a 16.9 mode which consist in 4.3 with some colores bezels (?)

In game board is limited to 25fps.

Was the only game I had to set widescreen false on ini to avoid colored bezel. Stretch and apply a 16.9 patch.

On my limited test, doesn't seem to happen if you don't have any wii system menu installed. Not sure if this helps.
