Review Roundup For Mario Strikers: Battle League

<p dir="ltr">The 2000s marked a bit of a heyday for Nintendo's sports offerings and among its gems was Mario Strikers, a crown jewel in the shape of an arcade-soccer game with an emphasis on striking. The oft cartoonishly violent and over-the-top series was a party staple like little else: How many other soccer games let you flatten a goalie with giant hammers just to sink a shot?</p><p dir="ltr">We never got much out of the Mario Strikers series though, with the last game releasing on the Nintendo Wii in 2007.

In GameSpot's <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/mario-strikers-battle-league-review/1900-6417891/">Mario Strikers: Battle League review</a>, we said that the game was "a thin package, without very much variety in terms of game modes and options. But it is a more technically complex game than many of the Mario sports titles, which may give it legs for dedicated players."</p><p dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.metacritic.com/game/switch/mario-strikers-battle-league">GameSpot's sister site Metacritic</a> puts Mario Strikers: Battle League at an aggregated score of 75 and lists a range of reviews from around the industry in case you'd like to know what others think of Nintendo's latest sports game revival.</p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/review-roundup-for-mario-strikers-battle-league/1100-6504313/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/">Continue Reading at GameSpot</a>
