Here's one ballgame fans don't want to see rained out:
"The action at Seattle's Safeco Field will be wilder than ever on Sept. 5 when video game icon Mario takes over the diamond. Nintendo will place interactive Wii game kiosks throughout the ballpark, inviting attendees to swing the wireless Wii Remote controller like a bat or make a pitching motion to throw a pitch. To heighten the excitement in the stands, nine lucky fans - one randomly selected during each inning - will win a prize package that includes a Wii system and a copy of Mario Super Sluggers."
Report: Game and Player
The regular season of Major League Baseballis over. Washington took the cup, and the boys of summer are off to hibernate until spring. For the baseball superfan, this means many long months without their sport of choice, so they've turned to the virtual world. And rather than the super-sims or manager games, a Mario spin-off baseball series seems to have captured people's attention.
Mario Superstar Baseball hit the GameCube in 2005, and its sequel Mario Super Sluggers landed on the Wii in 2008. There hasn't been a new baseball spinoff since developer Now Production's closure, unless you count Super Mario Party's baseball toybox, but the decline in Mario sports games hasn't deterred the dejected baseball fans of the r/baseball subreddit from picking the game apart.
Nintendo trademarks four new titles. The names of the titles are Wrecking Crew, Rhythm Heaven, Mario Super Sluggers, and Golden Sun. Let us hope something new will come from these trademarks, either a remake or a new title.
full remake of the original 2 goldensuns on gba would be awesome
i didnt enjoy the third one on 3ds as much though
Wrecking Crew and Rhythm Heaven sound like they could be cool new IPs.
I believe Rhythm Heaven has had previous games, not sure about Wrecking Crew, it could be a new version of the demolition game that released at N64's launch.

A.J. says: "I don't like sports but for some reason I love playing baseball video games. Here, I'll cover all the bases as to why this sport appeals to non-fans like me so let's get this ball game going."
