HEXUS.gaming preview : Mario Super Sluggers

HEXUS.gaming writes:

"Mario Super Sluggers is a new baseball game from Nintendo and Namco Bandai. Having already worked on Wii sports and developed the game mechanic to make the pitching and hitting motion of playing baseball, Nintendo already has a head start in the sport, but what exactly is it doing to make the game more interesting then your average baseball title?"

Nice stuff. Not that I'd by any, I've got Zelder and Browl and they'd be the only games I'd get.

rrquinta4731d ago

Well, it will be interesting to see if these 4-5 games are the only ones they reveal will be part of the budget program or not. I would love to see Punch Out!, since I haven't yet had a chance to get that one.

theherp804731d ago

why did it take them so long for this to happen. maybe now i can get some of the older nintendo games at a reasonable price.

rrquinta4731d ago

Yeah, I'm not sure, TBH. They have had a discount program in Japan, but I guess they were still riding the "Wii is the s***" wave and figuring Grandmas wouldn't know any better and keep paying full price for Zelda, even after three years, or whatever.

They look fake to me?

Logos seem out of place and don't align with the rest of the artwork/ case, and the Wii branding looks as if it's layered on top of another image.

rrquinta4731d ago

Well, they could be fake, but only time will tell.

LoaMcLoa4731d ago

Oh, so it's like Player's Choice on the Gamecube?

Heck yeah!

NESpower4731d ago

They said in another link they are only $19.99. I'm buying some for sure.

great .... but no Games like Rogue Warrior LOL

jazzking20015028d ago

nice list, could not make one better

Davoh5028d ago (Edited 5028d ago )

I really want Legend of Mana to be finally released in Europe, but I doubt it'll happen.

Edit - How can someone disagree? It was never released in Europe, and although they announced a PSN version it would probably just be on the Japanese and American Stores.

SpoonyRedMage5028d ago

Kawazu has judged you unworthy.:P

There's tons of Square games we missed out on... even recent ones that have stayed Japan only...

Davoh5028d ago

I don't mind Japan-only games, as the saying goes, misery loves company, so as long as we're not the only ones not to see a release then it's all good xD

Alos885028d ago

If this list was written by me I'd have just written Deadly Premonition ten times. It's that good!

nunley335028d ago

I heard it's so bad it's good in a b-movie kinda way.

Alos885028d ago

Definitely true, I hope they release a demo since it's the type of game you either love or hate.

nunley335028d ago

Why would hail to the chimp be on that list, is there a large group of under-served fans of this game over in the EU? Really? I was this game well received enough to warrant an EU expansion? This game was rush out in time for the o8 elections here, that's 08 now. Maybe they could wait till there is some big election for some EU country, there was already a big UK one so wait till another comes i guess but then it'll just be older and less interest if that's possible.
