. Gameplay
Set in the diverse environments of 'Baseball Kingdom,' this is a
game that is easy to learn and compulsively addictive, but that
also can be made to be as challenging as you want it to be. When
you are a rookie go on the offensive by swinging the Wii Remote
to smack singles, doubles, triples or even home runs; while when
playing defense simulating a p motion to toss the ball
over the plate. As you grow more confident in your skills, you
can choose to attach a nunchuck controller while playing defense
to control outfielders for an extra challenge. And regardless at
what level you play at always remember that Mario Super Sluggers'
nine mini-games are always an option. So, when you need a break
from organized play, just grab a few friends and take the mound
in a p challenge or swing for the fences in the home run
derby.
In addition, since Mario Super Sluggers supports up to four
players, with enough controllers, you can go two on two in epic
battles. As you traverse the Baseball Kingdom, put together your
"all star" team made up of your favorite Nintendo characters
including the games five captains. Each of these has different
abilities and temperament making them as valuable as they are
difficult in the right or wrong situation. The result is a take
on the American Pastime that you and your family will have a hard
time putting down.
