Nintendo Goes for Grand Slam with Mario Super Sluggers

Nintendo announced today that Mario will appear in a new game called Mario Super Sluggers for the Wii. The game is a baseball sports game for the Wii and you can assume that the play will be along the same lines as Wii Sports.

"Mario is truly a one-of-a-kind character; clearly fans can't get enough of him and his friends," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. "We're giving Wii users brilliant new ways to enjoy him while expanding our series of active-play games."

Nintendo says that the players will swing the Wii Remote like a bat and wave the remote at the screen to pitch. Nintendo says the game is controlled with the same scheme as Wii sports Baseball. You can count on the same feel with Mario characters. Pricing is not known at this time.
