Stop the press! Nintendo has today revealed some rather marvellous screens of a brand new Mario title for GameCube.
Start the press back up again! It’s only baseball.
We’re always pleased to hear news of new Mario titles, but in this particular instance our excitement is quite containable. It is sure to be of an impressive standard, doing for the elaborate take on rounders what Mario Golf and Mario Tennis did for their respective sports, but it will fundamentally be based on the simple idea of hitting a ball with a big stick.
As Europeans without even a basic understanding of the ‘baseball scene’, we can’t even insert a poor quality baseball pun here. So instead, we’ll have to improvise. Back of the net!
