KEY INFORMATION

Take to the pitch as Mario Strikers Charged (the follow up title to Mario Smash Football) returns with an all new roster of features, only for Wii.

• Use the skill the Wii Remote and Nunchuk Controller provide to win the ball, score unstoppable goals and take control of the goal keeper to perform spectacular saves

Characters: Mario is joined by other famous Nintendo characters who take on the role of captain. Players then select a host of popular teammates to make up the rest of the team.

How to progress through the game: Players form an original team by combining one of 12 captains with three of eight sidekicks before competing in one of the games many modes. Anything goes in Mario Strikers Charged as players are allowed to utilize a variety of special abilities to clinch important goals.

Super abilities/power ups/moves/features: Each captain has their own set of skills, super abilities as well as the ability to perform special shots called Mega Strikes, where the iron ball splits up to five balls and flies at the goal. The defending player must use the Wii Remote to target and aim at and shoot these balls out of the air before they concede a goal. In this game players can also charge energy to the metal ball, making it more likely to find its target when fired at goal.

Each of the stadiums in Mario Strikers Charged have various characteristics and contraptions, which influence game play. Players must learn to use this to their advantage to truly dominate the pitch.

Multiplayer: Mario Strikers Charged will not only feature an action packed multiplayer mode but will also support the Nintendo WiFi connection service, allowing players to take part in tournaments with people from all around the world.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The release date isn't gonna be any earlier if they announce it earlier.

So we decided on Chrono Break for the Wii. A Chrono announcement would cause a huge ruckus no matter what system, but putting it on the Wii would be the ultimate cluster bomb of fanboy ecstacy.

Mmm crusty dead RPG franchise for innovative new system, what a great combination.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'm pretty sure that'll be delayed until everything online is ready. If it ever comes out, FFCC DS was supposed to exist by now but we don't even have any info. Square are the slowest developer of all time.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Don't worry about it, it's one of those things that'll be forgotten in a few years.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Says the troll.

The Wii event in mid September seems to be something to actually look forward to

Speaking on the subject of the trade-only event, an NoE representative said: "Wii will be playable. Nintendo will be announcing new software at the event and there will be new announcements regarding the Wii console itself."

and a quote from some guy from IGN called Matt

Quote:

GC 2006 wasn't exactly the huge Wii show that some had expected, but it did have some cool game announcements. That said, we're just getting started. Wii fans, this is going to be a huge month for you. I think the September 14 event -- now just two weeks away -- will be bigger than E3 for Wii lovers, and the coverage/news isn't likely to stop flowing after that. If we've been in something of a drought, rest assured that the storm is coming.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

THE Wii launch game to get is a GameCube game? Doesn't sound like a good launch to me. Thank god for Ubisoft!

Nintendos 'kiddy' image isn't a bad thing. If they wanted to appeal to insecure jocks they wouldn't have called it Wii. Kids mostly play violent games like Red Steel and Splinter Cell now anyway.

FELIPE NO

Nope not yet, just make sure to refresh sites in 15 hours and 35 minutes.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
