| |'''''Super Mario Strikers''''' (''Mario Smash Football'' in the PAL version), the first game in the series, was released on the Nintendo GameCube. It features basic rules of football, although having its own playing style as implied in several sport ''Super Mario'' games. One specialized rule is [[Super Strike]]s. Only the team captain can execute a Special Strike, and if done so perfectly, the shot will always make the goal, and be worth two points. There are a total of [[Super Mario Strikers#Team Captains|nine different playable team captains]] (including one unlockable, Super Team), [[Super Mario Strikers#Sidekicks|four different sidekick players]], and two different [[Super Mario Strikers#Goalies|goalies]]. It was the last ''Super Mario'' game to be released for the GameCube in Japan and North America. | | |''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'' (''Mario Smash Football'' in the PAL version), the first game in the series, was released on the Nintendo GameCube.

| |'''''Mario Strikers Charged''''' (''Mario Strikers Charged Football'' in the PAL version and ''Mario Power Soccer'' for South Korea), the second installment in the series, was released on the Wii in 2007. [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection|Wi-Fi]] capability was a new addition to the game, allowing players to compete across the world over the internet. The game features four new team captains: [[Bowser]], [[Bowser Jr.]], [[Diddy Kong]], and [[Petey Piranha]], as well as four new types of sidekicks ([[Boo]]s, [[Dry Bones]], [[Monty Mole]]s, and [[Shy Guy]]s). The game includes ten new fields to compete, many of them containing certain gimmicks that would modify the situation of every match. For this second mainstream, the characters would have special kicks to score, like sidekicks' [[skillshot]]s or the powerful [[Mega Strike]]s of the captains, which [[Kritter]] proves his potential to stop the [[Soccer Ball|soccer ball]]s, under the control of the player. If successful, then they will receive up to six points for each ball in the goal. Also, new power-ups had been added for each team captain, known as [[Super Ability|Super Abilities]]. The game was rereleased for the [[Wii U]] [[Nintendo eShop#Wii U|eShop]] in 2016. | | |''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'' (''Mario Strikers Charged Football'' in the PAL version and ''Mario Power Soccer'' for South Korea), the second installment in the series, was released on the Wii in 2007.
