Mario Super Sluggers (Japanese: スーパーマリオスタジアム ファミリーベースボール, Super Mario Stadium Family Baseball) is the sequel to Mario Superstar Baseball, released on the Wii console. The game was announced on October 9, 2007, at a Nintendo conference. It was released in Japan on June 19, 2008[1] and will be expected in North America on August 25, 2008.[2]
Intro
Mario Super Sluggers begins with Toad, Daisy, Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Birdo on a small cruiser riding to the baseball island. The cruiser arrives, and they meet up with Peach and Toadsworth at the entrance. They then follow to the lighthouse located at the Daisy Cruiser, which shows an overview of the whole island. From there, they run into the Mario Stadium holding Wii Remotes, and gazing out. Daisy takes her Wiimote and swings it, turning it into her bat. Luigi follows and Mario turns his into his ball and glove. Mario pitches to Daisy right away, and she makes a hit.
The scenes begin switching from stadium to stadium. Daisy's ball is chased after by Toads in the Peach Rink, where they run into Freezies. The ball then rolls onto Wario City, where Wario chases after it to find it shoot into the air from a manhole water spout. The ball lands on Wario's head, causing him to fall backwards, and causing the ball to fly into Yoshi Park. Yoshi jumps over a pipe to catch the ball, realizing he is going to fall, he flutters around, but falls in with the ball. The ball flies to Diddy Kong at DK Jungle, where he is about to be run over by a barrel, when Donkey Kong comes to Diddy's rescue by smashing it.
The view switches back to Mario Stadium, where Mario pitches to DK, who then makes a hit. Yoshi goes for the catch, but both Wario and Waluigi bombard him with bob-ombs. Yoshi slides to the catch regardless, throws it to Peach, who throws it to Mario, and then to Luigi on base. DK slams into Luigi, sending him into the field wall. As Daisy and Toad stand in alarm, the crowd follows suit, only to see Luigi stand and reveal that he has caught the ball. Lakitu calls it out, and everyone rushes to Luigi and Mario's side.
Gameplay
Mario Super Sluggers can be played 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. The 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. Any player can pitch or bat using Star Skills, however only Team Captains can use special hits/pitches. Team Players can only use Star skills that will make the ball go faster or slower.
Stadiums
There are 9 stadiums (excluding Toy Field) in all. All 9 of them can be played in daytime or nighttime. Mario Stdium is the only stadium not to feature any gimmicks.
- Mario Stadium No gimmicks appear in this particular stadium.
- Luigi's Mansion If the ball reaches the bushes in the field, the ball will be harder to find for the other players. Also, if you touch one of the gravestones you'll get an extra Star.
- Peach Rink The stadium is slippery and touching one of the Mr. Freezies will freeze you for a short time.
- Daisy Cruiser Dinning tables are scatered everywhere in the stadium, making it harder for the player to catch the ball.
- Yoshi Park A train passes by every now and then making-it harder for the player to catch the ball. Also, hitting one of the Piranha Plants will give you a Star.
- Wario City Every now and then, the manholes will burst up water making the ball rebound high.
- DK Jungle DK Barrels pass by every now and then, making-it harder to catch the ball.
- Bowser Jr.'s Room Chain Chomps roam the stadium's field and might crush the player if the ball gets too go close to a Chain Chomp.
- Bowser Castle Lava Bubbles pop-out from the lava burning the player for a short time, if touched.

Misc.
Chemistry
Like Mario Superstar Baseball, the characters will have good and bad relations with anyone character. However, the characters will can make special abilities with another character when show good chemistry. You can revice items with chemistry. If you are a slugger and the next player shares chemistry you will get an item.
Items
There will be items in Mario Super Sluggers, much like to Mario Strikers Charged. However, only a few items have been confirmed as of now.
- Green Shell - Shoot a player and daze them if hit.
- Fire Ball - Some fireballs will bounce around to burn someone.
- Boos - Make the ball invisable.
- Bob-omb - Throw one and the player loses the ball and is hurt.
- POW-Ball - Simmilar to the Bob-omb. It will shake the ground instead of making a explosion.
- Banana Peel - Shoot 3-6 bananas to trip the player.
Challenge Mode
Challenge Mode will reappear in Mario Super Sluggers. This one, unlike Mario Superstar Baseball, features a more in-depth story and overall map screen. A few obstacles were seen, like a puzzle to get to the next part of the path. Not much else is known for now. In a recent trailer, a star pointer (similar to Super Mario Galaxy) was seen in the challenge mode.Template:Refneeded
