:By now, everything was taken from the trailers ;) {{User:Coincollector/sig}} 18:12, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
::Ok :) --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 18:24, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Is it confirmed that Shy Guys and Red Yoshi will be playable? I saw them in the trailer playing. However, players weren't controlling them. {{User:McQueenMario/sig}}
:Well, normally they would be played by a human, but there's the possibility they aren't playable... So, as I said, cite your sources or die. If anything is not proved, it must be removed. --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 04:46, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

I found information that the game will be released in North America on January 4, 2011.
No comment...
- WiiRevolution

No, the release date for this game is 2/7/2011, or February 7, 2011. Looks like the game magazines lied on this game! - Reddragon19k

==[…]and much more.==
Does anyone have proof for the line in the intro that claims this game will have more than the four sports that have been shown? I was under the impression that the sports in this game were limited to just those four. {{User:Twentytwofiftyseven/sig}} 10:31, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Hopefully. Nintendo wouldn't limit gameplay to 4 sports. *googles it.* {{User|Damariogamr}}

== WTF? ==

Why do people keep deleting my edits? This happened on the Mario Superstar Baseball article, too!

{{User|Beecanoe}}

Because not all of the sports have been confirmed! And if we don't know how many sports are found in this game, that trivia is useless and may be wrong.{{User:Mr bones/sig}}

== Rosalina == 
Any one  know if Rosalina will be in this game? That would be pretty awesome! {{User:New Super Mario/sig}}
:Nothing has been confirmed. --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 00:42, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

== Square Enix == 
I saw that the developer was Square Enix. Does this mean maybe [[Moogle]] and [[Ninja]], and also some other characters from Mario Hoops may return? {{User:New Super Mario/sig}}
:We don't know yet. So, we cannot put that...yet.{{User:Mr bones/sig}}
:Where did you see that? --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 19:27, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
:Right on the Article, below the logo{{User:New Super Mario/sig}}
::OH, I need to pay better attention X_X anyway, we can't add anything about Moogle and Ninja until it is confirmed --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 20:09, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
:Oh, ok well when i get back from vac i'll join the new games pipeproject thing.{{User:New Super Mario/sig}}

==Single Player/Two Player?==
There aren't any of those modes? {{User:Super-Yoshi/sig}}
:Yeah, but some people say "NO WE CAN'T ADD IT UNTIL IT HAS BEEN CONFIRMED" --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 20:04, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

== Wi-Fi confirmed + 7 New Characters ==

Hello! I have some news! ^^ On the Japanese website of the game, they revealed some info! Here -> [http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/rmkj/index.html#/ Mario Sports Mix]. It shows us that Wi-fi is confirmed! That's a great new! Also, if you go on the Characters's page, you can see 7 more hidden characters. [[User:Sambiss|Sambiss]] [[User talk:Sambiss|Talk]]

That means the hidden characters , are from the final fantasy series. {{User: Birdo beauties/sig}} bye bye Birdo, toadette, rosalina T_T
:Ummm... not necessarily. --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 20:00, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
::If we're lucky, then probably. If we're REALLY lucky, then definitely. [[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|And if we're UBER-lucky...]] [[User:Neox|Neox]] 17:34, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

==Condfirmed Locations==

Actually,Luigi's Mansion is a real level.You can see a picture of it in the gallery.--[[User:UltraMario]]

Yup, it also appears on the japanese website. {{User: Birdo beauties/sig}}

==Alternative Colors?!?!==

:We can't be sure until more info is revealed. --{{User:Tucayo/sig}} 21:20, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

hmm  {{User:Birdo beauties/sig}} i don't think so. :/

==Last Character==
We have 18 confirmed playable characters but there's a hidden character. Who could be? {{User:Birdo beauties/sig}}

:We have to wait like everyone else. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

Yeah maybe Birdo is the last hidden character. {{User:Birdo beauties/sig}}  I hope so---
:I suggest you discuss this [http://forum.mariowiki.com/index.php?topic=8202.620;topicseen here]. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}

There's no need to discuss it since it was just confirmed on the Japanese website. And no, it's not Birdo as she was clearly shown as an audience character. [[User:Tomboytastic|Tomboytastic]] 01:21, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

== Monty Mole ==

someone add Monty Mole to the non-playable characters list. He is is in the background of a arena. --[[User:Dry Bob-omb|Dry Bob-omb]] 13:45, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

== Slime Power! ==

A Slime in Mario Sports Mix? How can he Play? He Is a good character and I can't wait to play as him, but really? I'm glad he is a character, but there is only one Problem; He has no arms.

P.S. Sorry BirdoBeauties, but there is a new player in town from the Dragon quest series and his name is Slime!
{{unsigned|MarioMaster2011}}

:Firstly, you can discuss about this in the forums. Secondly, Goomba in Baseball. Enough said. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

== Europeon Release date ==

I'm confused. I thought that the Mario Sports Mix release date for Europe was January 28, 2011 according to this link: http://gamefocus.ca/?nav=new&nid=11923

But now when I checked the article for Mario Sports Mix again on this wiki, the release date is February 4, 2011. Does anybody know if Jan. 28th is the real date or Feb. 4th?

[[Image:MarioMP8a.PNG|35px]] [[User:Mario304|Mario304]] ([[User talk:Mario304|Talk]]) [[Image:MarioSmash.PNG|35px]]

: We usually check the Nintendo official sites first; the Nintendo Europe website has this game's release listed as February 4, 2011. --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! [[User:MeritC|User Page]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 01:51, 25 November 2010 (UTC)


Okay. I must have gotten the wrong date then. Thanks!

== USA Release Date ==

I went to my local GameStop and checked the release date book and discovered that the release of th USA version of this game is January 4, 2011.

[[User:KoopaWiki1989]]
:It's probably a placeholder. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
:What do ya mean, Fawfulfury65? It's the truth! [[KoopaWiki1989]]
::I don't trust stores for offering release dates. I rather rely on official websites or other places. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
:::My point exactly; it's best to wait for news from Nintendo of America themselves regarding when Mario Sports Mix's release date in NA will be. --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! [[User:MeritC|User Page]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 02:53, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
::::On second thought, you're right. I went to the GameStop site it says it'll come out February 1, 2011. Here's the proof: [[http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=78162]] [[KoopaWiki1989]]
:::::Of course! The book said January 4, but the actual release date is February 7! Looks like the NOA found the release date after all. [[Reddragon19k]]
::::::Know what, [[Reddragon19k]], you're right. [[KoopaWiki1989]]

== Final Boss: Behemoth ==

The final fantasy character Behemoth is confirmed to be the final boss. Why isn't it mentioned anywhere in the article. Proof is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEJmzi-daXQ Someone should add it already! [[User:MarioMaster720]]
:The video says it is the only boss. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}

I found the full battle on this site: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQmilcaBcT8]] [[KoopaWiki1989]]

==Edit from Last Week==

Waluigi Pinball and Koopa Troopa Beach need their own articles. I tried to do it last week but I couldn't do it easily. Also some courts should have another name outside Japan like Bowser Jr.s Bvld.

Sincerely [[User:ED120]]

== Players ==

I got MSM game, but there's no characters like White Mage, Moogle, etc. Here's screenshot: [http://i.imgur.com/0jlyW.png]. Do I have to unlock them somehow? {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:I've never played it, but I can already say this: yes. They were confirmed to appear in it. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
::To unlock characters it needs to win Story Mode (any), 1 character per win. [http://i.imgur.com/Wucck.png Wuuck.png] (so random) {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}

== Courts that still need articles ==

The following courts still need an article:
*[[Koopa Troopa Beach (court)]]
*[[DK Dock]]
*[[Bowser Jr. Blvd.]]
*[[Table Western]]
*[[Waluigi Pinball (court)]]
*[[Starship]]
*[[Ghost Ship]]

I created a Table Western article that got deleted. One court may have a different name outside Japan. Someone should create them.

Sincerely [[Sonicewan]]
==Controls vs article==
{{LLquote|In order to steal the puck, players must tackle each other, which can be achieved by the motion of shaking the Wii Remote.|[[User:Reddragon19k|Reddragon19k]]|[[Mario Sports Mix|article]]}}
In sideways mode it's {{button|wii|2}}. {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:I was the one who wrote that, actually. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

==Playable characters order==
Which order should we use? {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:See the article and they have an order. {{user:DKC2 King Liam/sig}}
::I wrote it when it had no order ಠ_ಠ. {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}

==Unlocks==
I unlocked Black Mage in Dodge ball by beating Star Road for the first time.  I received Ninja for all four sports and Black Mage in only Dodge ball. I was a little surprised since I did not see him in any of the missions.  I also used Peach and Daisy in over 20 matches and did not receive any alternate outfits. --[[User:Sonictoast|Sonictoast]] 02:16, 23 February 2011 (EST)

Ahah!  IGN says you get black Mage by beating Star Cup four times.  That's what I did!  That should be added to the page. --[[User:Sonictoast|Sonictoast]] 02:42, 23 February 2011 (EST)

Has anyone unlocked the three Toad colors by using Toad?  I'm not entirely sure that what I've inputted is completely accurate; for instance, is Green Toad really unlocked by using Toad 25 times, or is he unlocked by using him 20 times. {{User:M&amp;SG/sig}} 22:48, 26 February 2011 (EST)
:I unlocked Toad's three other colors using Toad. I remember unlocking Blue Toad by playing 15 times, Yellow Toad 20 times, and Green Toad 25 times. So the current information is correct. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
::Thanks for telling me that.  I had Yoshi down, since I unlocked him through character usage for all sports; couldn't get to the alternate colors at all with the alternate routes. {{User:M&amp;SG/sig}} 15:07, 27 February 2011 (EST)

==Split?==
Should we split Basketball/Voleyball/Dodgeball/Hockey/Sports Mix from here? {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:Nah, they are separate game modes; they can be incorporated into this article easily. However, the current information we have is just the bare bones of the mode; we need more description. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

== Behemoth Battle Controls ==

I'm in a bit of a pickle with the controls for the Behemoth Battle.  While I have the Wii Remote (horizontal) controls down, I don't exactly know the controls for when you're using the Wii Remote with the Nunchuk attachment; I've only played the game with the Wii Remote (horizontal) control scheme.  If anyone has fought Behemoth with the Wii Remote + Nunchuk control scheme, please tell me what you know. {{User:M&amp;SG/sig}} 07:50, 8 March 2011 (EST)
:Well, how you move around is the same for dodgeball, you dodge in the same manner by shaking the Wii Remote. You toss the ball by pressing A and you use motion controls for volleyball to hit the ball. You can also shake the Wii Remote to use items. Slam dunking is also shaking the Wii Mote upwards. Press and hold the Z button to use the sword thing. I think it's basically it. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

==What this article lacks==
*<s>Story (''Warning: spoilers!'' Toads found 4 crystals and ended up giving it to winners of 4 sports. After winning them the crystals merged and suddenly worm hole appeared, in it heroes battling Behemoth).</s> Thanks, [[User:BabyLuigiOnFire|BabyLuigiOnFire]] and [[User:Arend|Arend]]!

:Trivia sections are actually not recommended unless you have a useful piece of information that doesn't fit anywhere in the article. {{User:Fawfulfury65/sig}}
:I may be a bit crazy, but the game itself don't have a story... "technically"; so why are folks saying that the background about the Tournament mode needs to be added? The important factors that need to be mentioned (which I believe have already been done so) is the Tournament Mode process itself, which also includes working toward the final battle moments with Bethemoth. --M. C. - "Mario Gals" Fan! [[User:MeritC|User Page]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 14:56, 14 March 2011 (EDT)
::Well, I added it anyway for completedness. I think it implements finely in the Tournament mode of the article. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
Now since Arend made the story section, it now lacks images. I'll upload one soon. {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
:Done. {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}
Seems that everything is done. The nly thing is Sports Mix section, and we can support that FA "proposal". {{User:SWFlash/Sig}}

We're almost done. But there are still some things missing. Here are some other points this article lacks. Most of the tings are optional though. 
*Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection
*<s>Longer Sports Mix section
*How many games need to be played to unlock a court
**Right now, the table says ''Play a certain number of matches'' with every court
**The way how to unlock the court in Tournament mode is complete!</s>
*Record Book Page 2 needs screenshots from Basketball, Volleyball and Hockey
{{User:Arend/sig}}
:Regarding Sports Mix mode, that's basically all there is to it. I don't think anything else can be added to it. Yeah, all you're doing is playing a random sport in a harder tournament mode. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}

===Screenshots===
This page has beautiful HQ screenshot. This is obviously a good thing, but I did notice something.
Right now there are 19 screenshots on this page.
*There is '''1''' screenshot with '''Hockey''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are '''4''' screenshots with '''Volleyball''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are '''4''' screenshots with '''Basketball''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are '''8''' screenshots with '''Dodgeball''' gameplay and/or menus
*There are also '''2''' screenshots that can depict any sport 
As you can see, around 50% of the screenshots use Dodgeball, so it's quite unbalanced.
Fortunately, most of the screenshots show menus, but it would be nice if at least the Record Book Page 2 section can get screenshots for every sport, instead for only Dodgeball.
