Mario Baseball Announced

Screens look REALLY low quality; those models look like far worse than MPT. Have to believe Camelot is either REALLY early, or someone else is making this.
 
Fuck Mario. Make a game without franchise characters, Nintendo.

Mario Baseball used to be a joke about how Nintendo would eventually make something like this. God.

Tell us how you really feel.





Seriously, why get upset over something like this? And many of us enjoy the Mario sports games. =P

Why would they chance a game without franchise characters when adding the characters practically guarantees more sales? It's just good business sense.

Plus, as long as the game is fun, I personally don't give a damn if I'm controlling Mario or Jerry Maguire at bat.

Mario Tennis == Best tennis game.
Mario Golf == a lot of fun.
Mario Kart == Best Kart racing game.

I'm not "upset." Sorry I came off that way. But it is just a bit on the annoying side to have a good 70% of your GameCube library be comprised of Mario games. I basically go out of my way not to buy Mario games anymore, even if they're fun.
 
the best thing about these screens is that by looking at the team in the field it is clear that Donkey Kong is indeed a greedy no-good villain still. as it should be.
 
"Let's release a serious golf title, called Legend of Golfer!"
BOMB
"Let's scrap that idea and keep developing Mario sports titles!"

Seriously, though, this was eventual. My only issue is that 4-Player baseball games are not exactly common, as far as I know. Is there no news story to go with this?
 
Nintendo has this complex that if it's games don't have Mario or another big mascot in them they will not sell. To find success to the level Sony and Microsoft have, the company needs to start making games that will sell based on their own merit not on the merit of the characters they have in them. Don't get me wrong Mario Tennis and Golf are solid titles, but I can't help but ignore the excessive whoring.
 
On a serious note, assuming there are 9 players on a team, do you play with the same 18 people? I can not imagine a whole league of Nintendo characters. The premise if just wrong.
 
This game is MINE! I love baseball...

However, as much as I love the idea, how do you think they will handle the positions? Since there have to be at LEAST 9 players per team, and I'm assuming there are at the LEAST 2 full teams to make the least possible player count 18, assuming no characters are repeated.

Do you think the teams will be completely customized? Or will there be themes such as good guys, bad guys... what other themes would they do?

The reason Mario Baseball always seemed so wrong a concept was this exactly.

9 players per team; MK:DD offered 18 Playable characters. So, technically, they've got enough for...one game. The only thing I can think of is possibly having a league of teams full of 4 Staple characters and then generics to round it out. I guess...
 
I know what I'd like to see. Nintendo team vs Sega Team Vs Capcom team Vs Camelot Team, etc.

Come on Nintendo, make it happen!

It is too awesome to even hope for, but maybe there will be a Koopa Kids team. :D

For bringing that up, and getting our hopes up, you simultaneously rock and suck. Congrats.
