Mario Super Sluggers Revealed

Apr 10, 2008 4:45pm CST tags: Mario Super Sluggers, Nintendo
Nintendo of America today revealed the first details on Mario Super Sluggers (Wii), the latest sports title to star Mario and what Nintendo referred to as "his unpredictable pals."

Much like the Wii Sports baseball mini-game, Sluggers has players literally swinging and pitching with the Wii Remote. However, unlike Wii Sports, it will allow players to charge up power moves with button presses.

According to Nintendo, Mario Super Sluggers will arrive later this year, though no firm release date was provided.

A rebranding of the previously announced Super Mario Stadium Baseball, Sluggers is being developed by Mario Superstar Baseball (GCN) veteran Namco Bandai.
