This Mario sports series is the best I’ve ever seen. Basically gives the rules of soccer/football the middle finger and goes with it. And out of all the Mario sports games this is the one that needs another installment. EDIT: ON Feb 09 A NEW STRIKERS WAS ANNOUNCED IN THE NINTENDO DIRECT!!!! LETS GO!!!!
Yeah but it is such a missed opportunity to not put a sequel on Switch. It’s easily the most beloved Mario Sports franchise and I am baffled that it didn’t get any more follow ups.
@@ROCKCHOMP380 port free riders, give it a controller, re release zero gravity with upscaled resolution and the original re release with more tracks/characters and all three with online and local play
@@UltimateGamerCC they could go the RPG way like the old GBC sports games where you build your team and improve it along the way. I know Nintendo doesn't like that kind of thing anymore, but I can dream
@@darkgladiator27 then they would need Camelot's help once again, because they helped Nintendo back in the GBC/GBA era with anything RPG related, other than the Mario & Luigi franchise that is.
Loved this game. Peach and her "Freeze Frames" were surprisingly a good choice to take down the final captain in the main mode... along with Dry Bones, Monthy Moles, and Hammer Bros. as regular players.
Say what you will about items and how they make skill useless but honestly, there’s this constant intensity that comes from items and makes it so that you always have to be at the edge of your seat. They basically say “Don’t get too comfortable!” every time.
Loved the replay of this and definitely think we need a sequel. Small correction is that Mario Super Sluggers also included items if you had chemistry in your batting order making Strikers one of two games to do so
5 months later, hey welcome to Mario golf for the 80th fucking time, not sorry to those who like the golf games but soccer is inevitabley more fun and interesting to play than damn tennis
Honestly because of how red his teeth were I thought Mr Fraser (I don't know how to spell his name) was supposed to be drinking the blood of the innocent for the bit because of how red his teeth were
I think we know the reason we didn't get a sequel. Nintendo didn't like the portrayal of Mario and friends in this game. Especially Waluigi and his crotch chopping. That's too "hardcore" for Mario and thus, Nintendo won't revisit this game... and if they did, it'd be toned down quite a bit.
@@toastythomas wario makes a "throat slit" gesture with his hands Peach and daisy has a "bad bitch" vibe to them Waluigi crotch chop Mario's grunting noises sounded like he's gonna snap at any moment Everyone has a "im gonna place you head on a pike" attitude And luigi......is a precious boy that needs to be protected So yeah most of them are very "not family friendly" to an extent
@@MashupProductions22 luigi,when I wrote this you weren't even here. And with smash ult they keep it surface level and just reuse stuff from the characters series,none of it is new or worthwhile
Back when I was in middle school, I had Mario Strikers Charged. Omg, I remember I was obsessed with this game for a while. It pissed me off a lot sometimes. I overall loved it, but man it was hard at certain times! Great review! Really brought me back to simpler times.
Such an awesome game. Used to play it with one of my roommates at the time and we got super competitive. It was all about Daisy and triple Dry Bones for me. 👍🏼 I hope another installment will be teased soon with the World Cup and olympics right around the corner.
Absolutely loved this game, my favourite Wii game and probably my favourite sports game of all time. Loved the video and you're absolutely right we 100% need a sequel and/or port IMMEADIATELY
This game still is one of my favorites but it broke me. Roughly 15 years ago after doing the hardest difficulty about 100 times in a row only to be tackled by a frickin plant from half way across the field who then turned around with 2 seconds left of the game immediately scores (this was every game that I was about to win), my last match I ever played I finally had enough and threw the disc at the ground, shattering it. I never lost my cool ever like that, but I have mixed feelings of vengeance and regret. Love the series, hate the plant
I loved this game when I was younger, and still do to this day. Being a huge soccer fan makes it all the more appealing, naturally, but even beyond that it's just so much chaotic fun. Never did play it online though, and never really had friends to play with either. Would love to see it brought back on the Switch, too.
10:18 "Also, both Mario Strikers and Mario Strikers Charged are the only Mario Sports games to include items." Did you forget about Mario Power Tennis?
I remember LONG nights of playing the gamecube Mario Strikers with friends during a sleepover, but never got a chance to play Strikers charged, luckily I found it the other day at a thrift store so I'll be playing it with my roommates soon :) Thanks for the video!
I remember that me and my brother would play this game every time. And every time it was practically a war zone. We both were so competitive in this game and whenever we got a super shot it felt like an accomplishment.
This is also the game that gave us the legendary “hi I’m daisy” voice lines. (Seriously for some reason she has way more personality in a handful of Mario sport games than the rest combined)
Mario Strikers was the ONLY Football/Soccer game I truly enjoyed, heck, even emulate the first one every now and again for funsies. Great to know it's getting a new one soon!
I don't play Fifa, I don't like PES and every Football game ever. But Mario Strikers Charged...I love that game...SEQUEL!
Same here xD
FIFA on the Wii was genuinely really fun, they had a mode where you could swap to Mii characters
It would suck because Nintendo would make it to kid friendly
@@HelixJuice you say that like fifa has been decent since 17
@@Flame_0119 I don’t know a thing about fifa
One of these days we'll finally have that Mario Strikers challenge we talked about doing at SGC years ago.
Good god, SGC. Theres a name I haven't heard in a long spell
@@lbboardingb3356 I take it he means “Strikers for the GameCube”.
Well lmao
AND THAT DAY IS SOON
Just love reading all the comments of ppl saying they can’t wait for it back. It’s so surreal it being here now. I think we all doubted it for a while
To this day, People are still asking for a new Mario Strikers game
I would also like a 2nd Megaman soccer game
We been dying to get a new one
Next Level Games : Nintendo bought them
There's : hope, people
You're in line somewhere behind the people who want a new Pokemon Snap game.
@@Thalanox New Pokemon Snap : am I a joke to you
Bowser had claws to move the ball since his legs are too stubby to kick it while running
That. And he is one of the bigger characters. They play goalie=more reach with his hand.
@@braedonlock3359 In this game Bowser cannot be the goalie.

@@chrisbeach423 Mario Super Sluggers on the Wii will forever be my favorite Mario sports game

2021: You can’t keep a good game down.
you can use wiimmfi if you want
We need a sequel/remake/remaster/port/ANYTHING THAT RECOGNIZES THAT NINTENDO KNOWS THIS STILL EXISTS!
Well there is a mario strikers poster in Luigis mansion 3
Yeah but it is such a missed opportunity to not put a sequel on Switch. It’s easily the most beloved Mario Sports franchise and I am baffled that it didn’t get any more follow ups.
This is exactly how I feel about SEGA and the original Sonic Riders.
@@ROCKCHOMP380 port free riders, give it a controller, re release zero gravity with upscaled resolution and the original re release with more tracks/characters and all three with online and local play
@@dragonmaster3030 They probably wouldn't port all 3. Maybe not the Original or Free Riders. Zero Gravity was monumental imo so it would stay.
The birth of the Waluigi Crotch Chop.
Wa lu i gi, yeah, yeah yeah!
Bring it back Nintendo
D-Generation Wa!!!!!
@@Swaggernaut_X Yes. He (Waluigi) also had Rob Van (Wa!) Dam and R. K. (Wa!) O. taunts too! It's great seeing Waluigi a fan of WWF/WWE wrestling!
This is one of the best Mario spin offs ever, everything just makes you feel like a badass athlete
Or like a rag doll when getting clapped by dk and bowser
Its my favourite
Seeing Kremlings as the goalies takes me back. Back in a time when DKC characters besides DK & Diddy were regularly used in spin-offs
Super sluggers and hoops 3 on 3 gave us even more 😪
We need a sequel already....
i imagine the issue at hand is how they can top Charged? i mean look how long we had to wait for another Mario Golf after Toadstool Tour!
Or at least a port of the original!
@@UltimateGamerCC That didn’t stop Nintendo with making multiple Tennis games.
@@UltimateGamerCC they could go the RPG way like the old GBC sports games where you build your team and improve it along the way. I know Nintendo doesn't like that kind of thing anymore, but I can dream

Great piece!! Was a blast being a part of this series during my time at Next Level Games! So awesome to see the game celebrated so much still today!
I’d rather have a remake of this game than another Mario Golf game
The new Mario Golf looks good, but we all NEED a new Mario Strikers.
No more tennis plz ;-;
@@ageu1998 How about another Mario horse riding game
I would take a straight up port with online play added at this point. Fuzzy graphics and all.
We always get tennis and golf we need a new strikers
Loved this game. Peach and her "Freeze Frames" were surprisingly a good choice to take down the final captain in the main mode... along with Dry Bones, Monthy Moles, and Hammer Bros. as regular players.
Yeah peach went from a damsel in distress to a sassy teen
And bowser is probably best power character
Say what you will about items and how they make skill useless but honestly, there’s this constant intensity that comes from items and makes it so that you always have to be at the edge of your seat. They basically say “Don’t get too comfortable!” every time.
Zan pulling a Jeff Goldblum in the car might be one of my favorite moments on this channel lmao
I did not understand a word of it.
@@juanmoreno5492 that means he practiced his Jeff Goldblum to perfection
"Get out of my car. 0:
i thought this said “pulling off jeff goldblum in the car” and was just a little bit concerned
Haven't picked up my switch in over a year, but a sequel to this and I'd be playing it everyday
But age of calamity doe
Finally 15 years after this game we have a new one
yes , but sadly sucks ass , and the lack of content...
Too bad it sucks compared to charged
Yes, A BAD ONE
I am so “charged” for this episode.
Ah, I see what the goal of that comment was
Loved the replay of this and definitely think we need a sequel. Small correction is that Mario Super Sluggers also included items if you had chemistry in your batting order making Strikers one of two games to do so
Considering that Nintendo just bought Next Level Games, here's hoping we'll get to have the next Mario Strikers game on the Switch.
Man I hope so!
@Joshua White They didn't?
5 months later, hey welcome to Mario golf for the 80th fucking time, not sorry to those who like the golf games but soccer is inevitabley more fun and interesting to play than damn tennis
We did it, see you on June 10th
Holy shit I've never been so excited for a completionist episode like this. I love strikers so much!
Luigi's entrance music was all I needed to get hyped for this game.
Honestly because of how red his teeth were I thought Mr Fraser (I don't know how to spell his name) was supposed to be drinking the blood of the innocent for the bit because of how red his teeth were
I thought he was gonna die or something

And lets not forget peach and daisy's..........sass
They didn't like the portrayal?
@@toastythomas wario makes a "throat slit" gesture with his hands
Peach and daisy has a "bad bitch" vibe to them
Waluigi crotch chop
Mario's grunting noises sounded like he's gonna snap at any moment
Everyone has a "im gonna place you head on a pike" attitude
And luigi......is a precious boy that needs to be protected
So yeah most of them are very "not family friendly" to an extent
@@10.ikadekanandadwipayadnya83 well it’s friendly to kids 10 and up apparently
It would be boring then
So glad a new one is coming!
Ah the times of seeing teams with 3 Toads, Boos or Dry Bones online and immediatly DCing....
10:20 Mario super sluggers exists. It has items
This really feels like a coincidence I just started to play this game yesterday it’s so fun glad you are giving it some love 😁
And not long after this they made a Switch version, which I thought this was about from the thumbnail.
We’re getting a new Mario Strikers for the Switch baby!
This game was literally the only time the Mario cast had actual personalities and not just brain dead like every other game
Luigi had personality in the LM series

It has been a long, rough journey my friends.. June 2022 can’t come soon enough! ⚽️🖤

The dream is no longer a dream. It is now reality. Get those boys on the line. There's a new Mario Strikers on the horizon.
man this game is so good and I'm always happy to hear you guys talk about it and it was a pleasure to see zan again after all this time
Just today I got the game. From seeing this review and the promotion materials for battle league, looks like charged is the superior version.
Shame Battle League lacks so many of these modes and challenges
I honestly really hope that Jirard eventually plays Mario Sports Mix
IT WAS SO GOOD 😭😭😭
Such an awesome game. Used to play it with one of my roommates at the time and we got super competitive.
It was all about Daisy and triple Dry Bones for me. 👍🏼
I hope another installment will be teased soon with the World Cup and olympics right around the corner.
I saw the thumbnail and was like YESSSSSSSSSS
Absolutely loved this game, my favourite Wii game and probably my favourite sports game of all time. Loved the video and you're absolutely right we 100% need a sequel and/or port IMMEADIATELY
Best Video in a long-time, such an underrated gem and best Mario Sports Game by far
Love the variety of games you compete. Nice it's not just one genre.
Mario tennis on N64 had items in one specific game mode! Dropping bananas from your ball and firing shells at the other team!
And now a sequel has been announced. Finally!
You're the coolest gamer I ever watch talking about video games.
This game still is one of my favorites but it broke me. Roughly 15 years ago after doing the hardest difficulty about 100 times in a row only to be tackled by a frickin plant from half way across the field who then turned around with 2 seconds left of the game immediately scores (this was every game that I was about to win), my last match I ever played I finally had enough and threw the disc at the ground, shattering it. I never lost my cool ever like that, but I have mixed feelings of vengeance and regret. Love the series, hate the plant
This aged well
Thank you so much. This game is coming on friday and this is the first real review I've been able to find.
I loved this game when I was younger, and still do to this day. Being a huge soccer fan makes it all the more appealing, naturally, but even beyond that it's just so much chaotic fun. Never did play it online though, and never really had friends to play with either. Would love to see it brought back on the Switch, too.
"Why hasn't this gotten a Switch port?"
Well... today is a happy day. =D
Crazy since finally we have the next installment in the series but sadly it lacks content
10:18 "Also, both Mario Strikers and Mario Strikers Charged are the only Mario Sports games to include items."
Did you forget about Mario Power Tennis?
Jirard I cannot keep up ive got so much to binge keep up the good work
I remember LONG nights of playing the gamecube Mario Strikers with friends during a sleepover, but never got a chance to play Strikers charged, luckily I found it the other day at a thrift store so I'll be playing it with my roommates soon :) Thanks for the video!
I love how the new guy is talking getting all Sirius and jerard is just like get out of my car being annoyed
Still the only soccer game I ever enjoyed playing.
Whenever I see Zan my day gets a little bit better. I miss his sketch content so much.
Loved seeing you with adam sessler on b4g4. Keep up the awesomeness.
This game had no business to be as hardcore as it is. Without a doubt my favorite Wii game of all time
hell yeah zan, happy he got a spotlight
That whole bit with you two in the car was hilarious. Especially when he scratched your beard.
Should have given the team that made this another chance, at least don't end the series when it's clearly got a fanbase
I barely got to the 2 min mark and The Completionist office looks so DOPE !
I remember that me and my brother would play this game every time. And every time it was practically a war zone. We both were so competitive in this game and whenever we got a super shot it felt like an accomplishment.
I AM SO HAPPY YOURE TALKING ABOUT THIS GAME
MSC is unironically a BIG part of my childhood.
i once went 10-0 goals
I feel intimidated with him approaching the camera
Funny thing is, I was just about to attempt the last cup after a year hiatus
The body snatchers type people in that intro bit fucking sent me like what was that inhaling screech from frazier
I'm dying watching these two mad lads being absolute goobers🤣🤣🤣 Between the giggles and, "Get out of my car!," I'm busting a gut 🤣🤣🤣
Bowser watched A Nightmare on Elm Street over the weekend.
The best spin-off in gaming history
Mario Kart Wii and Spider Man Miles Morales: Are we joked to you?
Bro spider man Miles morales is successful because of the ps5 and mario kart wii is just a best seller not a best game
Also are the Paper Mario games jokes to you too?
Spider Man Miles Morales is still a fantastic game though. And Mario Kart Wii is easily the best Mario Kart personally.
Paper mario is great and spiderman miles morales is great but still need an update when I played it on my ps5 I only stuck in every wall
Love this game.
I hope it gets a sequel someday.
For those who watch this in 2022. New strikers confirmed!!
This is also the game that gave us the legendary “hi I’m daisy” voice lines. (Seriously for some reason she has way more personality in a handful of Mario sport games than the rest combined)
the "hi I'm Daisy" lines actually started with Mario Kart Double Dash....
@@newageBoundhippie yeah, double dash was a large part of my childhood, and that's what I'll always associated the line with
But this is also that franchise that gave Daisy the “I’m too hot” and Waluigi his crutch chop taunts!
This game really gave the characters more personality! They was also more intense in this series! So YES we want another Strikers game!!!
Going back and getting revenge on Petey Piranha is still on my bucket list.
The Jeff Goldblum bit was unexpected, but I loved it!
Got that N64 Blitz 2000/2001 at the beginning, a lot of nostalgia there for me.
I freaking loved this game, got it when it first came out! So many great memories 😭😭💙
super mario strikers needs a sequel so badly
...why was Frazier’s mouth red???
*Astral Chain!* You HAVE to complete *Astral Chain*
Honest the best mario spin off title and the most slept on we need a new one ASAP.
Never got to play a mario strikers game. Would love to see a new entry in the series!
Def not the only itemed mario sport game. Sluggers and Sports Mix come to mind
I love that you Made a Video on this amazing game
10:19 You might wanna check out Mario Sports mix.
This and F-Zero need a sequel ASAP!!
It was always so satisfying hitting your enemy so hard the slow motion affect plays out 😂
10:21 (Mario super sluggers):Have you forgot about me!?
@3:40 it kinda looks like Bowser uses his metal claws to help him recover from being stuck on his back. cute.
This was a great episode and love the UpUpDownDown jersey

This game deserves more love
