What's Hot

1.It's easy to pick up and play!

2.Luigi can use a vacuum cleaner to steal a hockey puck! Awesome!

3.Classic Mario power-ups like shells and banana peels!

What's Not

1.It gets really old,really fast.

2.The graphics for Tutorial Mode are sooo last gen.

3.Not enough minigames to make this a legit party game.

@directions34 I too found that this game has very very short replay value. In time it just becomes very bland and boring. It certainly cannot hold a candle to other Mario Sports games in many ways - one being how long it'll keep your attention. Hell I still play Mario Baseball on Wii.

@WiiFolderJosh The only reason I want this game is WiFi. Most single player Mario games aren't that great. Just look at Mario Kart Wii; They punish you for your skills with blue shells.

@whatamadman12 Mario Kart Wii is tons of fun to play with friends together.

Hopefully this isn't off topic buuut

Since they have both Mario characters and Square-Enix characters..

Is there a reason why they haven't try using or thought of putting Mallow and Geno in the game???

Don't get me wrong, i know they're a random choice to be use for this kind of game. But since Square Enix help made this game, it could had been the perfect opportunity to introduce the two forgotten heroes again.

[JapanYoshiTheGamer]

It's called MARIO Sports Mix, not Mario AND DRAGON QUEST AND FINAL FANTASY Sports Mix. That, as a Mario fanboy, is plain stupid. I wanna unlock the secret levels, though.

Oh wait, do I have any friends who are DQ and FF fans? Maybe, to play with them, I'll have to unlock characters... :(

[JapanYoshiTheGamer]

@Smiley8DD Yeah. I want Geno instead of random Square Enix characters.

My impression of the game: Putting Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy characters? NOW THAT'S PLAIN SHIT.

[keggie09]

The biggest flaw for ME is the unlock system, I hate the fact it has alternate routes and stuff. It should have just been simple like beat a cup on easy/hard mode to unlock a character or skin.

[RandomTechUniversity]

@The999444 No cutscenes sadly.

[RandomTechUniversity]

@whatamadman12 I know right! I always thought Mario Kart games are a little bit unfair at times, being hit with items with no way to dodge them. Nintendo should really make a way to dodge the blue shell without any glitches in the next Mario Kart game, which will probably be on the Wii U.

[RandomTechUniversity]

I got this on the first day of launch, I wanted to see what other people think of it. But sadly, I got bored of it after 2 weeks. I regret getting this game.

But that's just my opinion.

[dennisdstar]

yay i already have the game. plus the fanal boss of this game is HARD!! O_O
