Mario Sports Superstars
SCORE: 85
It is a shame the PR and Marketing for
Nintendo failed Family Friendly Gaming. They wound up costing themselves
sales. They have to live with the consequences of their decision. I like
Mario Sports Superstars. This hand held video game comes with Soccer,
Baseball, Tennis, Horse Racing, and Golf. Each of these sports are
scaled down versions of previous Mario Sports video games. Families must
go through a tutorial before they can play any of the sports in Mario
Sports Superstars.
Mario Sports Superstars can be played locally with others that also have
a Nintendo 3DS. It can also be played across the Internet. Players can
power up thanks to the Amiibo cards. Mario Sports Superstars even comes
with one Amiibo card. The presentation and graphics in Mario Sports
Superstars impressed me. I enjoyed playing all of the games. I even
dominated in some of them.
Each of the sports in Mario Sports Superstars is lacking depth. Which is
not necessarily a bad thing considering we get five of them. I believe
Mario Sports Superstars is worth twenty dollars brand new. Tournaments
are the main game play mode in Mario Sports Superstars. Beat one to
unlock the next one. If you lose to a character in the tournament you
can try them again to change the outcome.
Expect all kinds of Mario power ups in Mario Sports Superstars. The
tennis is especially stacked with them. There are a nice amount of
things that can be done in the golf. Controls change across the mini
games. There is almost always some kind of mini game interaction to do
things like pitch. I am surprised that I liked the horse racing so much.
If you are looking for a sports game on the Nintendo 3DS, then you might
want to check out Mario Sports Superstars. I had a good time with it
while I played it. I would like to see more games like this one in the
future. It was a pleasure to play and review this game.
