Mario Super Sluggers is a baseball game featuring various Mario characters, sequel to the original Mario Superstar Baseball for the Nintendo GameCube.

Gameplay

The main part of the game is playing baseball and not much has changed from the real sport. Players take turns batting and fielding. Three outs and the teams switch positions. The player with the most points at the end of nine innings is the winner.

There are some special features. Sweet spots let characters hit the ball farther than normal, star power lets them use special pitches, and star abilities helps them make spectacular catches. Another interesting aspect is team chemistry. If two players have good chemistry, the ball moves faster when one throws it to another. For example, the ball will move faster if Mario throws to Luigi and slower if he throws to Bowser.

The game remains unchanged for the most part but features new characters and fields to play. New additions include more interactivity with the stadiums, the possibility of using Miis as playable characters and a new interface that that takes advantage of the Wii control.

Teams

The teams consist of 9 members.
