    A great improvement from its predecessor! Mario Strikers Charged keeps what made the first game fun but adds more to make the game even better! Characters move fluently and the addition of course hazards makes the game more fun and challenging!

    This game is different. This game takes soccer into a whole other level, and the character themes describe the characters, and some useless characters (aka. Toad) can be useful. Heck, imagine if futuristic soccer would be like this.

The best part of the game was the online, I would have to say Mario strikers charged had the best online connection out of all the other wii games. I hope Nintendo can see this review because what im really asking for is can you guys make Mario Strikers Wii U, similar to strikers charged style with more characters, the sidekicks can possibly be captains or have more stuff like the captains, better graphics, online of course, more stages, and also keep the old stages and songs for the characters from part on 1 and 2.

    I've never been very good at soccer games like FIFA, so I really enjoy this take on the genre. 3 on 3 soccer means that the action is tight and frequent, and that you don't have to spend as much time crafting an opening and instead the action goes back and forth very frequently. I also love the powerups, as well as just how the game handles and feels.

The graphics are detailed and deserve recognition - each character has facial details which can cause amusement. The lighting is fantastic and the special effects are magnificent (see exploding within the game). The gameplay is superb that has many levels of mastery which can be both enjoyable for beginners and pros, with learners being able to win if they pull off the right move. The sounds including characters never become annoying, but rather appropriate and effective. Events including when mario gets burnt are very humorous, but make sure it doesent make you laugh too hard or the battle might be turned on its head! This is definately a righteous return for Mario in what is revolutionary in that not only does it make a loborious and stagnant sport such as football to be fun, but also changes Nintendos main characters to be moody and agressive. This game with no doubt deserves the 10/10 i have awarded it.… Expand

Also for tackling, but you shake the remote to do that, so if you have problems with that, wow. Anyway, I have to say that this game is FANTASTIC!

And i found it to be incredibly fun and addictive. the games itself works great with the controls and is very quick, easy and simple to learn. But the more advanced controls and strategies can take a while. the variety of captains and sidekicks add a range of possibilities and strategies. The single player in the game is fairly short and easy but the last cup can be slightly challenging to the less experienced players. The single player/offline mode of the game itself is worth 8/10. But the real star of the game is The online Mode. This adds a whole new Value to the game and makes more personal challenges like, trying to get in the top 100 rankings or even the top 1000. so far i have only managed 874. the great thing is the rankings reset after each season meaning new owners of the game still have a chance to get to number one at one point.. The matches can get pretty heated and intense. and nothing is more satisfiying the winning on a skillshot in sudden death, apart from winning 10 - 0 and getting a bundle of points of course. The only downside to the game is no talk or messaging so it can sometimes feel no different from playing the computer except that it is usually harder than the computer. Overall Great game must buy for football fans and none. offline worth 8/10 online worth an extra 5/10 so overall 13/10 but you can only go 10 max so i have to settle with that. exellent start to wii online i just cant wait for the next one.… Expand

The single-player mode difficulty can be incredibly hard (me and my brother were having fits about it). But with so much else to do, who cares. The multiplayer mode is some of the best multiplayer Nintendo has delivered, as it even compares to the likes of Mario Kart DS and Super Smash Bros. Melee. Online. That makes this game get so many more goals in than Strikers on Gamecube. It works flawlessly, hardly lags, and offers some big challenges. I'd like to see YOU try to get on to the top of the leaderboards. This year also offers a lot more customization with your teams, as you can actually change your team members. The only reason you'll want to do the Single Player mode is to get characters and stages, because the CPUs will piss you off. The mega strikes don't really offer much variety; the character basically jumps up into the air and kicks the ball into multiple balls. Also, the voice acting is very awkward (Waluigi, Daisy, Peach, etc.). The game also doesn't take much use of the Wiimote's motion-sensing capabilities.

    The pure style and energy in this game hasn't been replicated. There's something eerily hilarious, but intensely grabbing about Mario characters being ANGRY and PISSED. This game is hilariously proud of how it emphasizes its violence, which is just salt in the Strikers stew. The personality of all of the characters is more charming than they've been in any game (reminder: ANGRY). In other Mario sports games, the characters are amicable and have good sportsmanship. In this game, Waluigi is finally allowed to punt his teammates. Wario can try to commit suicide after the other team scores. PETEY PIRAHNA can fulfill his DREAM of becoming a LIMBO MASTER.

    Anyway. Moving away from style, the gameplay is pretty fun, albeit similar to the first game. It is surprisingly strategic, and it's fun to try and come up with strategies and the like. The difficulty can be surprisingly punishing, if you aren't good enough to handle the harder CPUs.

    Unfortunately, I was never able to play this online, but from what I've heard it worked quite well. I won't change my score because of it, but just something to mention.

    This game is a lot of fun to play with other people. However, my experience when playing the campaign is mixed. It is fun to play a close game, where you feel evenly matched. But when you are playing against AI that is just happy-go lucky the entire match is not fun. But when you finally git gud, scrub, it can be a fun game to pick up and play.

Every stadium from the first game returns along with a bunch of new ones added, and those ones have more unique gimmicks besides the electric fence! The items return to spice things up, and each captain now has their own unique super ability they can use at certain times. The megastrikes are taken to the next level, where a golf meter pops up and your captain can fly into the air dramatically with a super cool animation and score more goals depending on your timing. The same art style of the original game returns and of course it looks even better here. There are some rockin tunes throughout the game especially the character themes. You could play online while it was still alive, and it’s one of the few Mario sports games that had an online mode worth playing. This might be one of the greatest Mario sports games of all time, and the series deserved so much better on the switch.… Expand

    My GOD we need more Mario games like this. I absolutely love how much spunk and personality each and every one of the characters has in this game, and I really wish that they were all more like this in other games.

It is such an entertaining game to play, and you will find amusement and enjoyment in so many aspects in this game, mainly with the characters but also with all the different arenas and even with the music. It is a blast to play both by yourself and with a couple of buddies. This is a gem of a Mario game and is one of the few sequels that absolutely outshines its predecessor (Super Mario Strikers for the GameCube). Definitely worth playing if you haven't checked it out already.… Expand

    As the most original, admittedly surreal, take on the sport for years, Mario Strikers is a gem of a game and manages to flawlessly meet Nintendo's brief of appealing to absolutely everybody.

    While we can see some people getting frustrated with the tricky AI later in the game, the emphasis on multiplayer and online action makes this an essential Wii title. [June 2007, p.72]

    The eventful, minute-long matches and frantic to-and-fro make Mario Strikers a suitable curtain-raiser for online gaming on the Wii, but a balanced and deep extreme sports game this is not. [June 2007, p.87]
