|''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'' (''Mario Smash Football'' in the PAL version), the first game in the series, was released on the Nintendo GameCube. It features basic rules of football, although having its own playing style as implied in several sport ''Mario'' games. One specialized rule is [[Super Strike]]s. Only the team captain can execute a Special Strike, and if done so perfectly, the shot will always make the goal, and be worth two points. There are a total of [[Super Mario Strikers#Team Captains|nine different playable team captains]] (including one unlockable, Super Team), [[Super Mario Strikers#Sidekicks|four different sidekick players]], and two different [[Super Mario Strikers#Goalies|goalies]]. It was the last ''Mario'' game to be released for the GameCube in Japan and North America.
