Product Description
Five full-on sports-Soccer, Tennis, Golf, Baseball, and Horse Racing-bring the challenge and depth you demand to Nintendo 3DS systems.

Before long, you'll have mastered the ins and outs of each sport: learn when to use an infield shift in Baseball, change your team's formation in Soccer, and more. Even Horse Racing is surprisingly deep! Build a stable of horses and train them well to win the day in the first-ever horse races in series history.

Mechanically, these games are all pretty solid. Tennis and golf work exactly the same way as the standalone entries. Baseball introduces a spinning wheel mechanic for pitching, which is a little different from previous games. Soccer has basic passing and shooting mechanics. Horse racing is pretty easy to control as well.
Each mode has its own version of an exhibition match as well as a basic tournament. The tournament rounds are inevitably short. Tennis matches last a few games, golf is best of 3 holes, etc.
Some sports have competitive online play. Tennis and soccer work pretty well. Golf does not have an online component, which is curious given that the standalone version did. Playing tennis, I suffered a little lag, but this is consistent with the standalone tennis 3DS game's online experiences. Other times, matches were fine.
The amiibo component is frustrating. Nintendo is selling amiibo cards, which can be used to unlock star versions of the characters in their respective sports (e.g. Golf Bowser unlocks Star Bowser in golf, but not in tennis). Every existing amiibo figure can be scanned to unlock coins which can be used to purchase in-game cards, but these do not unlock star versions of the characters.
The truly frustrating thing about this game is the same thing that was frustrating about the Wii U Mario Tennis: it is a mechanically-sound game that just does not have much depth. I am not unrealistically expecting dynasty modes or world tours like in traditional sports games. However, Nintendo (through Camelot) has put out some fantastic sports titles. Mario Tennis and Mario Golf on both Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance had full-fledged RPGs in them. Mario Tennis and Golf on N64 and GameCube had tons of courts and courses, respectively, and extra modes and options like Ring Shot. This game does not have any of that. Likewise, in baseball and soccer, the GameCube and Wii versions of both sports let you select any characters for your roster. This game lets you select from the main characters as captains and co-captains but forces you to select secondary characters like Toads and Goombas to fill out your roster. In other words, you cannot create a soccer team consisting of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, etc. Instead, it would be Mario, Luigi, and a bevy of Toads. In baseball, you pick a captain and a co-captain, then select from a lineup of Kameks, Goombas, and other miscellaneous enemies to fill in your team.
This package contains 5 well-made sports games that are fun for a few minutes each. They all work, and work quite well. I debated giving the package 3 stars because of the lack of any real depth to any of the sports, but because each of the five sports works well, I bumped it up. Make no mistake about what you are buying here, though. There is not a story mode in any of these games, there is not a set of extras, and there just is not much else to do beyond the sports. It is disappointing in that regard. Like Mario Tennis Ultra Smash before it, this is the slimmest package Nintendo could muster to fulfill the name of the package. None of it is bad; it just does not have the depth or set of options to reach the bar that Nintendo itself set 19 years ago with Mario Golf 64 and Mario Golf on the Game Boy Color and the games that followed those first ones.
While I didn't get the game as advertised, this is a seller issue and not a game issue. So my rating is based solely on how I feel about the game.
I love Nintendo, but I think this game falls short. I don't think it has as much content, as they could have put into it. I think the games are too short and it could be a little more exciting. When you see 3DS running full versions of Zelda Majoras Mask, Hyrule Legends, Fire Emblem Warriors and other console games, I think its okay to expect Nintendo to put a little more content and time into the their mobile sports lineup. I don't think this game will hold the attention of my teenagers or offer a lot of interesting replay value, but may be good for small kids. For some positive comments: character lineup is good. All five sports games are fun and run well. The game looks good, as usual.
My recommendation is to spend our money on a full sports game (gold or tennis), look at Mario Party instead (if looking for multiple player games), or skip this altogether.
To start baseball is really unfair.the pitcher
Can throw in different directions.how are
You suppose to predict where the pitcher is
Going to throw!
Next soccer.your dude goes off screen all the time!tennis is way too hard even if your
On beginner mode.golf is boring.
And horse racing is the only one without problems.you can do so much with your horse.im giving this 1 star because I wanted to play sports with mario dudes.
But they add all these rules that make it unfair and un balanced.oh and I forgot.
In soccer when you turn off penalty kicks
There's still penalty kicks.other people might like this game but dont waste your money.

TENNIS. El clásico desde virtual boy, me parece una versión simplificada del Mario Tennis de 3ds se agredece que tenga un modo copas, en si el juego que más me gusta, de toda la saga de deportes, un Tennis arcade, con súper movimientos, divertido, esencial para una partida rápida en lo que esperas el transporte o simple the para pasar un buen rato.
GOLF. tengo el juego de golf de 3ds, sigue la misma estela pero le falta lo que el juego enfocado a puro golf tenía un modo rpg, donde controlabas a tu mii y lo ibas llevando a través de las copas, siguió siendo igual pero simplificado, debes observar la dirección de aire, lograr con los menos golpes posibles que la pelota entre en el Green, el clásico golf.
BASEBALL. El baseball que todos conocemos y el que menos me gusta, más que nada porque no entiendo mucho el baseball, en si sigue las reglas básicas del base, y la estela de los juegos de este estilo en mario, pero no es mi favorito del paquete.
SOCCER. Eh aquí, uno que causó confusión no es un Mario Strikers, lamentablemente es el Futball que todos conocemos, de 11 contra 11, con faltas, tiro de esquina, a falta de fifa, es una buena opción y divertida, a mi si me gusto pero si quieres un toque arcade a lo strikers, esta no es tu opción, si quieres como dicen por ahí “una cascarita” amaras este deporte.
CARRERA DE CABALLOS. la sorpresa; la verdad no esperaba mucho de este juego, pero me gusto, es un juego de carreras pero con cabellos, me pareció excelente dinámico, y divertido.
En general, el paquete me pareció excelente un gran juego más al catalogo de 3ds, 5 juegos de deportes de mario en uno, viene con una tarjeta amibo al azar, que ofrecen otras opciones más no son vitales para disfrutar el juego. Además el dominio de cada personaje y demás te permite sacar su rango estrella, si te gusta jugar y tener recompensas sin dlc. Mientras juegas es un gran incentivo, si tienes un 3ds también lo recomiendo a todos.
Específicamente si te gusta el fútbol y añoras una secuela del gran Mario Strikers, éste título te dará satisfacción en todos los sentidos. Te permite hacer retas con otros jugadores en una red local (aunque cada quien debe tener el juego) y también se puede jugar en línea.
Yo que tengo el Mario tennis open de 3ds, no volví a jugar ese título pues aquí se tiene también tennis.
Una compra obligada para quien guste los títulos de deportes de Mario y la gran N.
