 its fun for a time...then it gets old June 10, 2008
the fact when you increase the level the only way to keep the ball from getting stolen is to knock the opponent constantly on his/her butt before they get to you makes it get boring on the legend level and eventually all the other levels are way too easy...the characters are fun, super kicks for the main characters are nice but get corny at times, and the goal-keeper seems to make amazing saves but then allow the easiest goals...its not pure soccer and you know that going in but it should still be a bit more realistic
 Super is the right word! April 22, 2008
This is the best video game I have ever played, I love soccer so this worked for me. You never get board and the 2 player game is awesome.
Some many games don't cater for 2 play, concentrating on 1 player. but not this game. if you want a soccer game to play with your buddy or a family member this is the game for you.
Brilliant!
greatttttttttttttttttttt January 7, 2008
I bought this game for my kids and they just love it. What a game!!! It was fast and exciting all in one. Beats any real simulated game. Cartoon characters and throwing turtles shells at the opponent is extremely fun.
Excellent game, even better with friends November 28, 2007

I'll admit, my first reaction to Super Mario Strikers was skepticism. Another Nintendo ploy to make money by slapping Mario's name on some sport. But, once again, Nintendo makes me eat my words. To put it simply, this game is pure hectic, frenetic fun. Essentially the basics of soccer are present, but this game is more about slamming your opponents into electrified walls and throwing bob-ombs or shells at them when they're out of your reach. Then slamming them into the electrified wall. I know, it sounds too violent for Nintendo's Gamecube, but it's true. And it's every bit as fun as it sounds. Don't worry too much though, moms, because unlike real soccer, no one ever gets hurt. And the craters on the field disappear eventually. (Once again, not kidding.) Having played soccer myself, however, I was afraid that these unorthodox tactics might take away from the experience. They don't. What they do, however, is succeed in making Super Mario Strikers one of the most fun Mario sport experiences available. And if you have friends you're in luck, because this game only gets better when it's a real live person you're slamming into an electrified wall. Seriously though, this is a great party game and is surprisingly deep. Combining items with your various moves make the more strategic player really able to dominate those who simply hit the "slam opponent into wall" button over and over. The only drawback of this game is that the frame rate occasionally slows, especially when you use the unlockable team.
Bottom Line:
Great, fast-paced, enjoyable game; you'll especially enjoy the multiplayer experience. If you own a Nintendo Gamecube and have enjoyed, or think you would enjoy, a Mario-themed sport, then you need to get this game.
Grandsons 6 and 9 love it. October 31, 2007
