'''''Mario Sports Mix''''' is a ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' sports game for the [[Wii]] | '''''Mario Sports Mix''''' is a ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' sports game for the [[Wii]] and a follow-up to the 2006 [[Nintendo DS]] game ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]''. The game features [[Mario]] and company competing in four sports: hockey, basketball, dodgeball, and volleyball, along with the ''{{wikia|finalfantasy|Final Fantasy series|Final Fantasy}}'' characters who have appeared in ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3'' as well. [[Slime (Dragon Quest)|Slime]], a ''[[DragonQuest:Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' mascot, makes an appearance in this game. This game was developed by [[Square Enix]], who also developed ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''. | ||
The game supported the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] feature, which enables players to play with other players in their region. To save any game data, three blocks of memory have to be used on the Wii system. However, due to the game's Wi-Fi compatibilities, the game data is copy protected, which means it cannot be transferred onto other Wii systems. As of May 20th 2014, [[Nintendo]] has terminated the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service, meaning that it is no longer possible to play ''Mario Sports Mix'' online. | The game supported the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] feature, which enables players to play with other players in their region.

Basketball is played in a similar fashion as in ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''. Players must score points by shooting a basketball into their hoop in order to win the game. Whichever team has the most points after all periods wins the match. Two points are acquired when the ball makes it in the hoop; three points are acquired when the ball gets shot from the three pointer and beyond or when a special shot is performed. The coins that the players gather along the way are added to their total score. Also in this sport, which is exclusive to this game, there is a shot clock on the bottom-left hand corner of the screen so the characters can shoot within the time limit, just like in a professional {{wp|NBA}} game. If they do not shoot before time runs out, the other team gets possession. Players are also able to defend, block, and make dunks in this game in a similar way to the actual sport. If the score is tied at the end of regulation, then {{wp|Sudden death (sport)|overtime}} will begin. With overtime in this sport, no game ends in a draw. | Basketball is played in a similar fashion as in ''Mario Hoops 3-on-3''.
