Official NoE site for Mario Strikers Charged Football8 minute playtest of online functionalityWhat made the original Strikers so awesome
This is (or I guess it could be) the official thread for Mario Strikers Charged Football (simply "Mario Strikers Charged" outside of Europe) for the Wii, the sequel to the brutal and fantastic Super Mario Strikers. The soccer/football/fútbol title takes the Mario universe and adds some Mountain Dew XTREEEM into the mix -- with red shells and bob-ombs as well as over-the-top super shots and arenas rimmed with electric fences, the game is to traditional soccer games like FIFA and WE what Mario Kart is to traditional racing sims.
First off, if you haven't: Watch the video with a
8-minute-long walkthrough of the game's online functionality. Yes,
lol friend codes, but move past that and you have a lot of robust online options, with stat-tracking across various seasons, Mii integration, a lobby system that lets you invite other players into your created game, random ranked matches and unranked friend play, the option for a second player to play co-op with you on your Wii while online (against someone else with their buddy or not), and so on. This is a far, far cry from the shit-tastic Mario Kart DS and Star Fox Command online play.
Then read
these UK IGN hands-on impressions and
more glowing previews from another UK site. Sadly, us Yanks won't be getting the game until July 30, but you fine Europeans should be able to give us all more personal impressions of how the game plays and use this thread to swap Friend Codes and stomp each other. The game's out this week, so let the hype commence!
BOW BEFORE MECHALUIGI

Still TBA in US though... Hope it makes it here.
That would be bad ass.
2009 is a year of Updates - one every Monday. Hopefully. xx

Bowser looks badass in this game.
Wow, there's a sentence I never thought I'd write.
And I hate football.
But a game in which Peach turns into an angel before pwning someone is a game I need to have.
Otherwise, looks great and I'm probably going to pick this up, as I've already seen this around for only 40€ (full-prize Wii game =60€) in some online stores.
WHAT THE FUCK NINTENDO??? I NEED MY STRIKERS NOW
[/jealous] Lucky bastards, you finally got the upper hand on us Europe..........for now
I have 549 Rock Band Drum and 305 Pro Drum FC's

You'd have to be daft not to give Europe priority in this instance.

Also note under 'The Ball' section they throw-back to the old nintendo days.
"Now THAT'S playing with power"
Excellent
This looks awesome.

But im not bitching, because it does look bad ass. If it does have online play, then this will be the game that will make me buy a Wii.

It does. There's a video about it linked in this very thread.
Still though, gotta love that art. Sega should take notes, this is the proper way to "x-treme" your characters up. I can't wait until they show the Yoshi art. The small face picture they show on the site scares the shit out of me.
I want this really bad. I wonder when its going to come out in the US. I'd import if there was some way to get past the region blocks but I dont think there is yet.
I might have to get on this actually, character designs look hawt, but I don't really enjoy football/football games.
Agreed. It really doesn't seem to fit. I guess we'll have to see...

MP3 in August doesnt surprise me. But Strikers in July? Seriously?
I can't think of one game that Nintendo has released in July over the past few years.
he's in the video on the official site.
yeah but he's all covered in shadows, i wanna see his concept art
kk
If you had let us have WarioWare: Twisted! then none of this would have happened.
And I'm going to pass on this one. I haven't played a football game I liked since Sensible World of Soccer.
