'''Mario Stadium''' is a baseball field in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. As its name implies, it belongs to [[Mario]], and is the most simplistic of all the stadiums in the game. It seems to be always set near beaches. It resembles other [[Earth|Real World]] baseball fields, and there are no real features to distract players.  It features the largest seating capacity of all the stadiums in both games. Both Mario Stadiums bear a resemblance to each other.  

==History==
===''Mario Baseball'' series===
====''Mario Superstar Baseball''====
[[File:Mario Stadium Mario Superstar Baseball.png|thumb|left|Mario Stadium, as it appears in ''Mario Superstar Baseball'']]
Mario Stadium's first appearance is in ''Mario Superstar Baseball''. The field is set on the beach with a small amount of sand behind the outfield wall. Palm trees and houses are also behind this wall. The stands are constructed like traditional stadium stands and hold around 300+ people. It is hinted that this stadium is near [[Isle Delfino]]. In Challenge Mode, Mario and his team are always challenged in Mario Stadium.

====''Mario Super Sluggers''====

Mario Stadium makes a return in ''Mario Super Sluggers''. This time the field is more realistic and set right on the water's edge. The scoreboard now features flags styled after ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', a [[Nintendo]] logo on top, as well as lights behind it for nighttime games. In the background a lighthouse on a cliff and a boat in the water can be seen. The stands are modeled after a beach house on one side and traditional stands on the other. The stadium now seats roughly twice as many characters as in ''Mario Superstar Baseball''.

The [[minigame]] is [[Bob-omb Derby]], with a few differences from the earlier game.

Mario Stadium also makes an appearance in the game's introduction and title screen.

===''Fortune Street'' series===

==Profiles==
===Official descriptions===
====''Mario Super Sluggers''====
*"''A baseball stadium with no gimmicks.''"

====''Fortune Street''====
*[[File:Flag of USA.png|22px]] "''Fierce competition is a daily event at this seaside sports ground.''"

===Collectible card info===
*'''Information:''' "''Mario Stadium is a classic ballyard, with no artificial turf and no unexpected obstacles. There is a giant dirt "M" in the outfield, but that won't get in anyone's way. Maybe that's why all training sessions are held here.''"
*'''Field Obstacle:''' None
*'''Fun Fact:''' "''Power hitters dream of one day hitting a home run far enough to bounce it off the lighthouse overlooking the bay.''"

==Trivia==
*Mario Stadium is one of only two stadiums in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' that have spectators watching in the stands; the other being [[Peach Garden]]. Others, like [[Donkey Kong Jungle (baseball stadium)|Donkey Kong Jungle]], appear to have areas designed to seat fans (behind home plate), but there are never any shown. Wario Palace has fans in the introduction, but none during actual gameplay.
*In ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'' Mario Stadium is the only stadium to have no differences between day and night aside from some aesthetic graphic differences.
