Mario's latest sport spinoff Mario Super Sluggers looks to be the most action packed game of baseball you'll ever play, if the intro video is to be believed. The sound quality is kind of ass but we'll live, one day at a time.
If you're wondering which characters will be appearing in-game, this is the current known lineup. Fear not, Goomba's in there.

I'm glad to see K Rool finally honored in a Mario sports game.
Sonic Phantom said:
I'll pass. Mario sports have been boring these days. Although Mario Kart Wii looks promising.
Wii Freak said:
Instead of a Kremling, it should King K Rool.
FredTheRed said:
Very good set of characters. I'm looking forward to this game, I couldn't get the one on gamecube. I wonder whether 'Baby DK' will be DK Junior, I hope so!
Shadow said:
Luigi seemed to have gotten credit on that last one.
Captain Jamesman said:
It's about time King K Rool was featured in a Mario game. Dammit, I don't see Rosalina on the list.
Fishmon said:
Wii Freak, look at where it says "Kremling". Now go up two characters and read what it says. They loaded it up with babies like Mario Kart Wii. They even added another one, Baby DK. If they did all that, why is it that they left out Baby Wario? Unless I'm forgetting anyone, he's the LAST notable baby from any Mario game. Why would you NOT include him? Baby Mario and Luigi are shoe-ins, and Peach is alright. Daisy is just a damn filler. DK is meh (Besides, Diddy is close enough to Baby DK. Casual players will probably get confused). Who the hell wouldn't want to be the rambunctious little nasty baby. The one who causes the most trouble? Besides, I know from personal experience that as kids, almost everyone wants to be Wario. Come on. Nasty, fat, nose-picking, farting, ugly, greedy AND rude. What could be better? By having Baby Wario, the players wouldn't fight over Wario. Damnit, Funky. Stay out of my Mario games. He's cool as a DK character, but outside of the DK games, he feels out of place. Blooper = wut? Kremling? Weird, but okay. At least K Rool FINALLY gets some love. I really wish he was in Brawl though.
Fishmon said:
Sorry for the double post, but I see DK has that damn glove again instead of a bat. Which reminds me, I hope the batting isn't complete crap again. Some of the characters were almost unusable at the bat, especially Boo and King Boo. I think they tried to hard to Mario-ify it and they ended up with batters that are impossible to get a hit (much less get a run or God forbid a home run.) and just look absolutely ridiculous. Sometimes, I'm embarrassed to hae someone watch me play. Some of the bats were awkward, making it even harder. Everyone needs bats. (I'm looking at you, DK and Petey.) They all need to be normal bats with different designs. (I'm looking at you, Toadsworth, Magikoopa, Hammer Bro, and a couple of others. ESPECIALLY Boomerang Bro, good god). Better yet, you should be able to choose between a normal bat or some kooky weirdo bat. MOST IMPORTANTLY, every character needs to swing like a normal human. I'm alright with A LITTLE flavor, but some of them were just unusable. The only actual batters I liked to use were Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Birdo, Koopa, Shy Guy, Fire Bro, and Dry Bones. Yoshi, Bowser, and Hammer Bro were a little weird, but playable. Everyone else, especially King Boo and Boomerang Bro were unplayable. Come on Nintendo, don't screw up again. It's okay to have a cartoony game, but there's a limit.
Diddy Kong Lover said:
What no Baby Wario, no King Bomb-Omb from 64? If they're going to make a boring game at least add worthwhile characters or introduce (Baby Waluigi).
Lickwid said:
Of course Luigi gets smacked.
Wii Rox said:
Sorry fred, but I think the "baby DK" they're referring to is the one from yoshi's island ds. This game has A LOT of characters, and also I think I saw luigi's mansion in there.
YoshLee said:
I'm getting a little tired of all the baby characters, the game looks great but I think Nintendo could have a better use of Mario world characters. The trailer was awesome, that was a total cheap shot donkey kong made on Luigi but he got up. GO LUIGI.
Randolph the Grey said:
Hopefully this game will be even better than the first, which was good.
insultman911 said:
Seems typical. Last game's intro, it was Mario making the home run. Now it's Luigi catching a ball.
wii r brawling said:
It's the current lineup so I think Rosalina will be on.
Supersmashdodo said:
King K Rool would have been an excellent addition to Mario Kart Wii, but I'm glad he's in this game.
ToTaLgAmEr said:
Looks pretty good, I probably won't get it though.
Diddy Kong Lover said:
Yay Diddy.
Wii Rox said:
It's good that they're trying harder to represent DK now (and I've actually grown to LIKE his new voice). Also, how can goomba be in, he has no hands, how can he hold the bat? (not complaining, just sayin').
SON of A Wii1-4 said:
SICK! Mario Superstar Baseball was good so I might get this 1.
BrAwL said:
I may get this one mainly for more in-depth baseball action and the super big line-up.
Crimson Fang said:
Who says Baby Wario and Rosalina won't be unlockable? And no, I've never wanted to be a disgustingly crude nobody, Fishmon. And I can speak from experience and say most everyone does NOT want to be Wario.
Mike&Mario said:
Wow this game seems pretty cool. I'm not too sure about the line-up, it would have been nice to see Rosalina and maybe even Skeletal Bowser, but anyways I'm still so happy they've included Blooper, King K Rool, Wiggler and Tiny. It's about time.
brybry34 said:
Rosalina's not there? Oh well looks great any ways!
Wiirock said:
What! No Rosalina.
Wii is Awesome said:
At least some sites are up to date (some don't even have Hammer Bro). This is the 2nd game ever I really want to buy when it comes out.
Wii is Awesome said:
Some characters have to be unlockable. Dry Bowser shouldn't be in this game. I don't even know who some of these characters are.
David B said:
The characters themselves aren't that great a factor in a general sense. If this has the same set up as the gamecube version then it should be real good. The characters share chemistry with their friends and feed off of each other whether gunning some one at home with your catcher being a friend or batting next to a friend in your line up. I loved this set up, because realistically you should not have an all star line up all the way through. That is where the no name characters come in play and even things out. There are a couple of tough characters to use, but it's no biggy for the most part. The classic control is the way to go on this one though, hopefully they allow the use of it like smash brothers has.
rosalinalover said:
It sucks that Rosalina is not in, she is the best character in mario kart because I own people with her. But this is still worth buying.
yoshilov said:
It looks great. I hope they have the special fielding talents. I know they have batting and pitching talents but I hope they bring the fielding talents. Because in the other game Yoshi could catch a ball with his tongue from 2nd and he could be at 1st! But when I saw Luigi pitching special it was a tornado not the green fireball. Weird. I am going to get this game.
mario man 124 said:
This is going to be great but it is a long time to wait.
Wii is Awesome said:
Yoshi's tongue catch is not that long, but he is still the best player in Mario Baseball. Yeah Bowser, bring it on.
iDOWN said:
What? Where the hell is Baby Wario and Rosalina? Seriously, Blooper? Come on, Nintendo. I laughed at Mario Party 8, but this just disgusts me.
Chris Carter said:
Idown you're wrong, this is going to be a great game - you'll just have to admit it. Oh and about baby wario, what game has he been in besides yoshi's island ds. Nobody even likes regular wario anyway.
davyt 0247 said:
No rosalina? I had hoped. Oh well, maybe she'll be in another mario game.
dog lover said:
Look at the pic at the bottom of the page.
Wii rokr said:
I agree with diddy kong lover and everyone else, no rosalina, no bomb-omb, what's wrong with this game.
nono said:
This game is great! King k rool, funky kong, dry bones, the kritters, and bowser are AMAZING batters! I hit home runs on accident with king k rool, and peach is by far the best pitcher.
i said:
This game will be ok. I love the idea of having Blooper, I don't know what iDown's problem is about him, I unlocked him in Mario Party 8 and fell in love with him. I also don't have a problem with all the babies because my cousins love them so if they use babies them I can use good characters like Yoshi and Diddy. The only thing I don't like is that they should have included R.O.B..
bob said:
This game has tons of characters! A record 41.
Mario said:
I want this game so much! It looks so cool with all these characters.
the cool dude said:
I love wiggler, I'm glad this mutant caterpillar has earned respect as a player! This game is not bad but I can think of other interesting characters.
nentendo lover said:
This game is awesome everybody should like it.
Me said:
I'd like to see wiggler at bat.
Master Fox said:
Tiny Kong was the best character to put in the game. And you all know it. She is an amazing thrower. I love the game.
Master Fox said:
I LOVE Tiny Kong. She is the best poser in the world. I LOVE her so much.
Master Fox said:
I am a boy and I LOVE Tiny Kong. It's not weird so don't laugh.
Charlie Edwards said:
I got all of the characters and sadly baby wario and rosalina is not in, plus you should say where they are and HOW does blooper fly? I battled him and he was flying.
Master Fox said:
I cannot believe that Tikal is not in the game. That sucks so much. She is Hot.
Aww said:
Where is Lanky Kong?
Caleb said:
This game is awesome.
97muggainc said:
Master Fox Tikal is on Sonic the Hedgehog: Sonic X and Sonic Adventure 1, 2, and DX.
jewman said:
They should have included rob, bomb dude, and maybe one of the lugi mansion ghosts (not boos).
britney said:
They should have added more than that.
