GameShark: Super Mario Sluggers Review

Each character has different strengths in categories such as hitting, fielding or pitching. These things do somewhat matter, but in the end this is a rather simple game of baseball with the ability to use attack items and in some cases characters are emotionally tied to each other and can do super moves together such as lift each other up to grab a possible home run in the outfield.

Why Hardcore Baseball Fans Have Unexpectedly Embraced the Wii's Mario Sluggers

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.

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.
