    It's easily the Mario Kart of soccer games and that should tell you a lot. Even if you think you're a confirmed soccer hater, Super Mario Strikers just might rock your world.

    This is by far the craziest Mario sports title yet and I had a blast with it. [Jan 2006, p.49]

    The fact that the atmosphere is the most notable part of the game means that it also fails in some respects.

    It's soccer starring Mario and friends, but the problem is, there just isn't enough "Mario" in Super Mario Strikers.

    Yet another brilliantly ironic Mario Sports title which once again proves that everyones favorite portly plumber can indeed kick it with style.
  6. N-Insanity

    A decent arcade soccer game with too little Mario. The developers could have put considerably more Mario-elements into the game other than the characters and the title.
  7. Game Revolution

    Nintendo didn't include enough extra fuel to give this otherwise fun endeavor the appeal of a "Mario Kart."

    It's fun. "Mario cash-in"?? That's like saying disney only makes money off it's characters. weak gameplay? If "Easy to learn It's fun. "Mario cash-in"?? That's like saying disney only makes money off it's characters. weak gameplay? If "Easy to learn but hard to master" is weak, then yes. "Zero Depths" not really sure what he is talking about. I think depths is actually singular, and "standard mario gimmicks". Right lets make a mario game that doesnt have the look or feel of a mario game. It's a fun game.… Expand
