Itchy Thumbs says: "While the use of the name “Mario” in the title is usually a guarantee of big sales for a Wii or DS game, it’s far from a confirmation of quality. Take Mario Sports Mix, for example, the latest attempt for the moustachioed plumber to show off his ball skills. It may boast four different games for players to attempt, but with identikit controls and a general lack of substance, you soon start to believe this compilation is a by-product of the developers knowing each individual sport couldn’t hold up on their own."
BLG writes: "The world’s favorite plumber is also a huge sports fan. When he’s not busy stomping goombas, you can find Mario hitting the links, swinging his tennis racket, or playing some street soccer with his pals. Mario sports games have a long history, dating all the way back to the original NES. Some have been home runs. Others were a swing and a miss."
The ‘Mario Sports’ trademark has been registered by Nintendo for Europe and Australia. The two listings for the Mario Sports trademarks in Europe and Austraila were both registered on May 20, 2020. They will expire 10 years after their registered dates, so in May of 2030. Both of the registered trademarks refer to “Mario Sports”.
