Mario Strikers Charged: Difference between revisions

'''''Mario Strikers Charged''''' (known as '''''Mario Strikers Charged Football''''' in European languages) is a ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' soccer [[Wii]] game and the sequel to the 2005 [[Nintendo GameCube]] game ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'', developed by [[Next Level Games]] and is the second game in the ''[[Mario Strikers (series)|Mario Strikers]]'' series. Up to four players can participate in this game, attempting to kick the ball into another opponent's goal; the soccer in this game, however, has several differences from the real soccer, such as the ability to tackle other players with a minimal penalty, using ''Super Mario''-themed items to give players an advantage over their opponents, and playing with stage hazards effectively. This game places a higher emphasis on individual character attributes compared to its precedent, by not only assigning stats, but by also giving team captains a unique [[Super Ability]] and the [[Mega Strike]], an opportunity to score up to six goals. Meanwhile, a team itself can be composed of several different ''Super Mario'' species, each with also unique attributes including [[Skillshot]]s. Another introduced mechanic is the power level of the ball. Indicated by the color of the glow, the shots of the ball become more quick and powerful the more active it is, thus making it easier to score goals with. The game, as with its predecessor, also stylistically differs from most ''Super Mario'' games with more realistic sci-fi tones, from the menu interface to the stage designs, in contrast to the more common bright and whimsical cartoon themes.
