it would work out great for kids, like Joe mentioned. they could have an easier time playing with people who want to control everything. just offer both.
Fielding sounds like PowerPros.
We all knew the Mario sports games would hit, but I was hoping some of the early games wouldn't necessarily be sequels. We saw Mario Strikers Charged, now Mario Sluggers. I would have loved to see something like Mario Bowling instead, with a code that allows you to roll Toad into the fucking gutter. This would have been a great game to drink beers to.
Personally I'm hoping Sluggers at least has a ball bat mini game where you hit the streets with a ball bat in hand.
Anyone else picking up Slugger(s) today? I've heard some stories about charge pitches/swings occasionally not registering with the Wiimote/Nunchuck (though I think you can use the classic controller for this), and of Hi, I'm Daisy's super swing yielding guaranteed hits, but it otherwise sounds pretty good.
The chemistry between characters carries a little more weight this time around: batting canonically linked characters back-to-back grants items to use on offense. Sticking Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong in the outfield can potentially lead to homerun-robbing team moves. I don't really like the idea of being essentially forced into choosing Good Guys Team or Bad Guys Team to optimize my lineup, but it could be fun.
And Toy Field is back! :)
...No online multiplayer. :|
Thought about picking it up...I'd like to wait for a price drop (but that doesn't exactly happen quickly with Nintendo's stuff).
...no sale. Not that I was really looking to buy it, anyway. But online play might've made me consider it.Quote:

Sluggers is the NBA Jam to Power Pros' NBA Live; it's a completely different, arcade-style take on the same sport. But yeah, MLB:PP is better.
