"One Piece: Pirate’s Carnival is the perfect example of a product that focuses more on taking up shelf space than earning a place in your console."
--Mark Bozon, IGN

"Pirates’ Carnival isn’t the buried treasure party-gamers have been looking for. It’s more like the fool’s gold of party games."
--Ken Hutchinson, Game Chronicles

"The mini-games are boring, the Captain events feel tired and generic, and there’s no replay value to be found. Avoid it and save your money."
--Karl Castaneda, Nintendo World Report

"Despite cramming in a respectable amount of licensed material, weak minigames and a plodding pace mean this ship bilges on its anchor."
--Tom Magrino, GameSpot

"Compare the number of mini-games in Pirates' Carnival to the recent Mario Party titles which have almost three times as many mini-games."
--Phil Theobald, GameSpy

"The loading isn't nearly as awful as in the Dreamcast's vile Sonic Shuffle, but it does add up and the lengthy gaps between actual gameplay still rankle. It can take upwards of an hour to finish a single game."
--Benjamin Turner, Games Radar
