Mario Super Sluggers is the sequel to Mario Superstar Baseball, and will be released for the Wii this year. The game was announced on October 9, 2007, at a Nintendo conference. At the moment, information on the game is fairly limited, as only a few screenshots have been revealed. It will be released in Japan on June 19th, 2008[1]. It is expected to be released in North America in July 2008.
Gameplay
You can play Mario Super Sluggers using three different control methods:
- Wii Remote (vertical)
- Wii Remote (horizontal)
- Wii Remote + Nunchuk combo
In order to bat or pitch, the A button must be held and then the Wii Remote must be swung at the appropriate time. The more precise the hit/pitch, the further/faster the ball will go. A player can do curve balls as well by twisting the Wii Remote, while pitching. Once the ball is in a fielder's hand, the Remote must be swung so that the fielder can pitch the ball at one of the basemen. Some fielders can throw fast balls or Laser Balls in order to get to one of the basemen faster.
Star Skills will reappear in Super Sluggers as well. A player can pitch or bat using Star Skills, however only Team Captains can do successful hits/pitches. Sub-characters can only do star skills that will make the ball go faster or slower.
Stadiums
Each of the nine stadiums can be played in both daytime or nighttime[2]. Each of them having their own set of obstacles except Mario Stadium, Wario Fare and Toy Field.
