	Gamerz-Edge - Mario Superstar Baseball Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Mario Superstar Baseball is a light-hearted baseball game featuring all the beloved characters from the previous Mario sports titles.
		Mario Superstar Baseball is accessible for novice and experienced gamers.
		Most simulation baseball games tend only to be enjoyed for a full nine innings by a select few die-hard baseball addicts as the experience of playing 9 consecutive innings can get tedious.

	a review of super mario stadium ** - large prime numbers. proud to be your #1 google search result for "'them ...
		Baseball is a sport with three "bases" where runners can be positioned, though only if they're capable of hitting a speeding, heavy, 108-stitched horsehide ball thrown by a pitcher.
		Baseball is like a simulation of the paper-pushing phase of a world war; karate is a simulation of one soldier bayoneting another.
		The Japanese began to love baseball after their status as a warring nation was neutered by the American-written post-World-War-II constitution; the acceptance of baseball perhaps also had something to do with the worldwide piling-up and acceptance of literature, which portrayed the sudden deaths of so many memorable characters as something we'd rather not have happen.

	GameDaily BIZ: Mario Baseball Keeps the GameCube Afloat in September
		Mario Baseball seems the only likely explanation for the spike, as it was the only major release for the system (Pokemon XD was released at the very tail-end of the month).
		While games like MVP Baseball or Virtua Tennis owe a significant portion of their sales to those who are passionate about the sport, it's difficult to believe the same holds true for Mario Baseball or Mario Tennis.
		The Mario sports title are "sports games" in the loosest sense of the word, instead generally opting to use the sport in question as a backdrop for zany and hectic multiplayer/mini-game gameplay.

	Mario Baseball > Review
		While it was only natural to attempt an arcadey, Mario-ized Baseball title, what with the success of all the previous sports mentioned, the fact of the matter is that Nintendo skipped some of the fundamentals needed in the sport, most notably base running.
		Peach is a great pitcher and lacks a lot in the hitting department, Mario is your all-around guy, possessing natural ability in all facets of the game but no outstanding ability in any one area, and Wario is one mean slugger, but naturally a slow runner on the bags and in the outfield.
		Mario Superstar Baseball is just what you'd expect Nintendo's take on America's pasttime to be; fun, fast, and easily accessible to all gamers.

	Mario Superstar Baseball Review / Preview for the GameCube (GC)
		Mario Superstar Baseball tries to up the ante in terms of excitement, injecting all sorts of Mario Universe themes and characters into the game along with the trademark powerups and other goofiness but it just doesn't seem to elevate itself above being anything more than a colorful gimmick.
		Mario Superstar Baseball doesn't feature an entire season mode which should let you know immediately where the heart of the game lies.
		Mario Baseball includes a Challenge Mode that lets players take their character through a storyline.

	Review - Mario Superstar Baseball // GameCube /// Eurogamer
		A 50-strong cast from the recent games populates Mario Superstar Baseball, including walk-on parts from such unsung talents as the freaky bloke in the mask, Shy Guy, with whom I feel a strange affinity.
		There are five mini-games that allow you to practice all your basic baseball skills, even including a base-running game, where players must practice legging it back and forth without getting blatted by that barking-ball-on-a-chain.
		Mario's flaming ball can be a little tricky to connect with.

		Mario and his friends are finally getting caught up in the love of the game.
		Most modern baseball games treat the controller's four face buttons as shortcuts to each base on the diamond, but Mario Baseball only has one throw button that is used in combination with a direction on the analog stick.
		The best part of Mario Baseball, and really the main reason to consider picking it up, is the multiplayer, which allows for up to four players.

		Mario and his team as well as others like Donkey Kong and Wario want to show him, of course, that they are the best.
		Mario has the super fast fireball, Peach will throw a ball with a heart over it hiding the ball so that you're not really sure when to hit it.
		The music is made of remixed classic Mario themes and some newly composed music that reminds you of baseball yet has a Mario feel to it.

	Mario Superstar Baseball - GameCube (GC) Reviews - The Armchair Empire
		What separates Mario Superstar Baseball from other arcade baseball games is the Nintendo license.
		I especially liked the obstacle course like atmosphere of the different stadiums (though having a dust devil whirl a hit into a foul ball was always frustrating) each themed around a different Nintendo character.
		However, anyone on the lookout for a fast-paced, cutesy arcade baseball title which happens to feature famous Nintendo mascots need look no further—MSB is the only game in town.

		Mario and his crew are furthering their athletic careers as they tackle America's favorite pastime.
		But since baseball teams are relatively large, a few more obscure characters had to be recruited to fill out the roster.
		There are, of course, the standard multiplayer and season modes that one would expect from a baseball game, but for the true single-player experience, you'll want to play through challenge mode.

		In an age where higher sophistication and greater realism rule the day, Mario Baseball doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is – a charming pick-up-and-play, arcade-style baseball game.
		Star power enthusiasts will love the fact that their supply can be replenished throughout the game by completing random tasks such as hitting a single or forcing a batter out.
		Baby Mario is definitely not the next Barry Bonds, but his speed in the field and on the base paths will remind you of Rickey Henderson.

	Mario Superstar Baseball (cube: 2005): Reviews
		The best part of Mario Baseball, and really the main reason to consider picking it up, is the multiplayer.
		Mario's powered-up version of baseball is the best virtual diamond on the GameCube, and while baseball purists may cringe at the characters' cutesy antics, no one will dispute the game is fun.
		Mario can still throw a mean pitch and has a solid swing, but it's his lazy ambition that catches him out.

	Mario Superstar Baseball Electronic Gaming Monthly - Find Articles
		The Mario Tennis and Golf series have won over hardcore fans and casuals alike with a mix of newbie-friendly pick-up-and-play controls and deep gameplay.
		Teams in Mario Superstar Baseball are made up of a captain—Mario, Peach, Bowser Jr., etc.—and a slew of lesser Nintendo characters, including Petey Piranha and Toadsworth.
		The Nintendo shtick is once again in full effect, but having a random sandstorm turn a sure fly-out into a stand-up triple in the bottom of the ninth is far more frustrating than it is whimsical.

	Mario Superstar Baseball (GC) Reviews on Darkstation
		Mario has only had one game to his name, and quite a few party titles and of course the sports lineup (Golf and Tennis).
		With Mario Superstar Baseball you are given a few different modes to choose from, but the core of the game can be found in the challenge mode, which tries to act like a mini-RPG with a small map to travel around and the ability to increase your team's abilities.
		What Mario Baseball does best though, is keep things unpredictable, as the different fields have a lot of different aspects that come into play that never would in a normal baseball game.

	Mario Superstar Baseball Review - GameCube
		However, Mario has to begin all over with a new team, which unfortunately is once again the basic, not so good team.
		Mario’s team is convinced they should run no matter what, even if it is an obvious fly ball, and although they can be sent back manually, most of the time it is too late and they’ll be thrown out before they can get back.
		Mario, Wario, Peach, Donkey Kong, and all the others are drawn in vivid color and detail, and move fluidly.

		With Mario's recent or forthcoming forays into golf, soccer, and basketball, to name a few, starring in a baseball game seems a natural step, and the latest in the line of Mario sports titles scored reasonably, if not spectacularly with critics, garnering an average rating of 78%, according to review aggregation site GameTab.
		Gamespot's Bob Colayco concurs, unfortunately, specifically commenting: "Where Mario Baseball really lets you down is with the baserunning artificial intelligence.
		While the regular baseball games are great whether you're going solo or playing with your buddies, the mini-games are exponentially more entertaining with friends.

		With any of the Mario Sports titles you can choose someone who fits your style, be it the strong and slow Bowser to the lightning-quick Yoshi.
		Part of the fun of playing MVP Baseball was the ability you have to choose where you're going to slide on the base, things like that, but in this game they slide for you.
		Again, it's a Mario title--I wouldn't expect the game to have all the little nuances of a baseball game, but it would be nice.

		Mario Superstar Baseball, known in Japan as Super Mario Stadium Miracle Baseball (スーパーマリオスタジアムミラクルベースボール), and also known to some fans as Super Mario Baseball is a video game that was developed by Namco and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo GameCube in 2005.
		It is a single-player mode where the player selects a pre-built team and must defeat all the other teams; at first Bowser's team is the last team to beat for the cup, and must be unlocked before the player can use him.
