A New Power-Up
This comic has been in the works for a long time. I thought of it months ago, and was bummed to find that Mario Super Sluggers wouldn’t be released until late August. I’ve only played a few minutes of the game so far, but I’m already upset about the lack of online support. This means that I CAN’T play the game by myself, for fear that I will get so good that no one will want to play against me, or if they do, it just won’t be fair. That’s what happened with the GameCube version. I got all the star characters before ever playing a 2-player game. Needless to say, I never did play many human opponents (then after not playing for over a year, Ray comes down to visit, and proceeds to whoop on me). But despite the lack of online play, it looks to be a typical Mario sports title: good, shallow fun. So what do you say Ray, rematch?
I can’t say I enjoy watching a grown man cry, but if you really want to go through that again, Tim, then be my guest.
