Can you do a 4 player Mario Party with 2 controllers?

Yes, you can play 4-player Mario Party with just two controllers (a pair of Joy-Cons), but each player will need to use one Joy-Con, sharing the controller by passing it or taking turns for some minigames; for true simultaneous play with four people, you need four individual controllers (two pairs of Joy-Cons or four Pro Controllers). You can adjust the player count in the game's setup screen to allow for fewer players or use the "Players" box to select 1 or 2 players, which prompts for the available controllers.

Can you play Mario Party with 4 people and 2 controllers?

Yes, you can play Mario Party (especially newer ones like Super Mario Party or Jamboree) with 4 players using only 2 controllers by sharing one Joy-Con per person, but some motion-heavy mini-games might require adjustments or disabling them, and Pro Controllers don't work for most mini-games, so two pairs of Joy-Cons (four total) are ideal for the full experience. To get started with just two controllers for four players: pair the two Joy-Cons as separate controllers in the Switch menu, and then you'll typically use one Joy-Con per player in the game, often requiring you to turn off motion controls for some modes.

Do I need two sets of joy cons for it takes two?

Yes, for It Takes Two on Nintendo Switch, you need two separate controllers for each player, meaning either two pairs of Joy-Cons (four total) or one Joy-Con pair plus another full controller (like a Pro Controller) per player, because the game requires two joysticks for movement and camera control and doesn't work well with single, sideways Joy-Cons.
