This game has so much more depth than anyone realized back then. There are still communities playing it online and finding new strats and synergies to this day. So much fun, even 2 decades later.
This and the Wii version of Mario Baseball are legitimately one of the best sports games Nintendo have ever put out! i still play the Wii one once in a while!
This was the second game I ever got with my GameCube. I played it all the time. The story mode was phenomenal. I would still be playing it to this day if the disc didn’t give out on me. I shed a single tear just thinking about it.
Drewski- I’m a d3 baseball player rn at frankilin college. I just want to let you know how much your videos mean to me. It brings me back to reality and shows me how much fun these games are. The nostalgia you’ve given me and the euphoria is unmatched. Please keep doing what you’re doing. You deserve millions of followers and I’ve recommended you to many. You’re the GOAT of UA-cam and I’ve seen a lot of it. Every upload you have I get so happy cause it gives me something to watch. Big fan since the Pandas! Love the Pandas, rocketmen, and the Dingos. For real though you bring lightness in the dark for me. I especially love the LLWS that you’ve been doing. Also I think an all star team out of all the NCAA revamped would be sick. Ik it doesn’t mean much coming from a nobody like me but I really do appreciate everything you’ve done. It’s keeps me out of a depressive state and I look forward to your uploads. I’m sure it’s a lot on your plate to do UA-cam but keep at it man. Love you brotha, I’ll always be a fan ❤️
Tip: If you mercy a team, you get all their players, regardless of how many flags you earned. To mercy a team, "simply" lead by 10+ runs at the end of an inning.
I played the hell out of this game back in 2005 (and I still play it today as well). I got it as one of my birthday gifts along with WWE Day of Reckoning 2. It's legit one of my favorite Mario sports games and it takes me back to the days when Nintendo actually cared and put effort into their Mario sports titles. Would love to see this game get ported to the Switch, but sadly that doesn't seem very likely to happen.
This game was legit my favorite as a kid. So many good memories. I had to get every player in my lineup. Peach/Daisy/Warrior/Waluigi/DK/Luigi /Yoshi/Mario… Diddy Kong was annoying and hard to use for me because he had such a tiny bat. It threw me off. Still such a good game. Luigi was my favorite to play as.
The issue with hitting the low number of home runs was due to not timing up the power swing right before the ball got there. You were powering up too early. If you play the WII version it is the same thing
All the sports games for gamecube were on par with Madden, 2K, PGA Tour, Virtua Tennis etc on other consoles. Thats what people are finally realizing. Their depth got initially overlooked BECAUSE they’re Mario games. Nintendo did good work
My favorite part of this game is when you beat career mode with each main captian, you unlock playing it as Bowser and it's essentially the opposite as the normal mode
Just as a tip: when stealing and fielding, mashing B makes you run faster. when going back to your original base while base running, mashing the button that represents that base makes you run faster.
My brother and I loved Toy Field so much, it actually got us outside to play our own IRL version since we could finally play baseball against each other in a way where it wasn’t just a home run or out.
I truly don’t understand how we haven’t gotten a new Mario baseball game or a remaster. Baseball is very popular in Japan. They even beat the US in the world championships. The best player in the world is Japanese. Think about the marketing opportunities🫠 Nintendo is dropping the ball here.
NO WAY I THOUGHT NOBODY REMEMBERED THIS GAME, I REMEMBER THE THANKSGIVINGS WITH MY COUSINS WHO HAD THIS GAME AND WE ALWAYS HAD A BLAST! THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS NTE
100%-ing this game is so difficult too. Some of the star missions to get star versions of the characters are nasty. I believe one of them is to throw a perfect game!
I did it in story mode and it took me a couple weeks of constant grinding. The easiest way to get a perfect game is to mercy rule the opponent and just do 1 perfect inning. The trick is to do non-powered up hits because they're much easier to get on base for. Keep doing that and you'll eventually get to 10 runs
Peachs field in both mario baseball game gives me nightmares when a toad hits a grand slam off the block... Or the ice cube freezes u and inside the parker
It's crazy how hard this game goes, and in such a different way from Mario Strikers. There's many Mario sports games, but these two in particular absolutely nailed it.
Dude I remember playing this with my brothers on our game cube. We always played the donkey Kong barrels game. Thanks for making this vid It brings back memories before we all got separated.
aight drewski, if you're getting into the Mario Sports games, I HIGHLY recommend the Mario Strikers games, both the GameCube and the Wii one. absolutely chaos and absolutely fun. Mario sports games are among my favorites. they "simplify" things to perfection.
This was my favorite baseball game to play. Also Fun fact Luigi has insane leaping abilities, and anytime I played with Mario’s team I always made an effort to put him in the outfield.
Honestly, Super Mario Strikers is one of the best soccer games of all time Imo. You should try playing that, some real nostalgia comes back when I see that game. Love the vids
Mario Superstar Baseball was one of the most fun multiplayer games I can remember, there was a year of my life where people would come over to my house just to play this lmao. Then my house got burglarized and my Gamecube and most of the games got stolen and I'd like to think someone stole it just to play this game.
Many hours spent on this game. My childhood friends little brother made me UA-cam the gimmicks after losing every game to him. One of the best arcade games of all time.
I LOVED this game as a kid. All the real ones know that wario’s team was STACKED. Wario is elite, waluigi aint too shabby and that flower/leaf plant thingy hit NUKES
Nah you gotta play Mario super sluggers it’s like an updated version and it is so fun, still play it to this day w my friends, game is so competitive and so fun
Even if I like the Mario Sports games you have to admit this baseball game on Gamecube has terrible hit detection, hopefully it will improve if a new Mario Baseball game comes to the switch. I liked the Golf and Soccer one so far, probably Tennis too. Mainly Golf and Strikers Soccer.
These random retro games go hard. Any recommendations for me to play next?
Super mega baseball is fun.
Play the sequel Super Sluggers for the Wii pls
Can you do llws part 3? I love them

Legit a top baseball game for me. Like perfectly done arcade style baseball
Wish this was released in the UK
Hi
oh man this game was amazing
Super sluggers might be better for gameplay but the features in this game are better.
Real ones know that backyard baseball is goated as this style of game
This game has so much more depth than anyone realized back then. There are still communities playing it online and finding new strats and synergies to this day. So much fun, even 2 decades later.

Backyard baseball 97
I loved this game! It was one of my favorites from the GameCube era. I’m still hoping the switch gets a Mario Baseball game in the future
This is the perfect baseball game, I wish they would remaster it
Just as a tip: when stealing and fielding, mashing B makes you run faster. when going back to your original base while base running, mashing the button that represents that base makes you run faster.
also beating bowser jr. lets you get the players you missed from other teams

Project rio is the best way to play this game
Now this is good baseball!

If you beat every level, you can play AS Bowser. I haven't beat it as Bowser yet, but it's kind of an easter egg that not many people know about.

@@BGerbs66 Yeah, I miss when Mario Baseball was about Small Ball Plays and Strategy and Fundamentals…
i still prefer this campaign to sluggers because you actually play games of baseball compared to the recruit tutorials
Mario striking out Bowser to end the game was giving Shohei Ohtani striking out Mike Trout at the WBC vibes lol
This was my childhood. Needs to be a series on ur channel
FUCK YEAH! The game that got me into real baseball. We’re going threw child hood now
Thank you shadow Mario 41
I’d love to see you play this more. Such a perfect baseball game
A masterpiece of the UA-cam gaming scene
I remember making up ratings for tons of characters who weren't in the game
This game is still played competitively
Not the expert you made my day so much because the Phillies lost last night in the nlcs game 7 and now watching this just makes me so happy
Challenged by a bad guy and you beat teams to take their best player. This is the plot of the bad Space Jam movie with King's Jester James.

NTE thank you for the new upload my day is now 500 times better

I absolutely loved this game when I was a kid! Great memories being summoned by this video!
One of my favorite gamecube games by a longshot, love to see NTE bringing the memes and nostalgia
Yeah, when you recruit Bowser, almost a guaranteed Dinger each time
Barry Bonds level OP
idk why but this game just feels like 'Super Mario: quest to build the 2022 Phillies'
This reminds me of Ken Griffey Jr presents Major League Baseball for Super Nintendo. Jus with mario characters and power ups

Daisy: Come here, sweetie!~
Luigi: WAAH!
We need more of these long episodes they're so entertaining

Why are you a fan of this game?

this game actually still has a pretty big scene, people play it online together a bunch!
Career mode on special difficulty is still the hardest story mode of any game I’ve ever played. It was brutal
It's been years since I was a kid playing GameCube, and yet Mario Superstar Baseball and Double Dash still appear in my dreams
The memes are always good when coming back to them every video 😂😊
"watch him destroy Peach"
Me: you sure you want her on your team bro?
No one likes Princess Peach though?
In this episode: Drew learns about the LEGENDARY Pink Menace
If u liked Superstar Baseball, you gotta play Mario Supper Sluggers. Top all time baseball game

It's crazy how hard this game goes, and in such a different way from Mario Strikers. There's many Mario sports games, but these two in particular absolutely nailed it.

This game is great, although it is pretty hard. Theres channels that play full seasons and they're hilarious to watch

This was my favorite baseball game to play. Also Fun fact Luigi has insane leaping abilities, and anytime I played with Mario’s team I always made an effort to put him in the outfield.

Greatest baseball game of all time
Why?
I love that you still keep around the "Hale yeah". I wonder how many people don't know that reference
Played this game for so many hours back in the day. Core childhood memory!
Love this game, grew up on Mario super sluggers
Honestly, Super Mario Strikers is one of the best soccer games of all time Imo. You should try playing that, some real nostalgia comes back when I see that game. Love the vids
8 year old me probably figured the hitting and base running that you. Like this game should be easy for an adult
Still my favourite baseball game ever! In fact, my favourite sports game ever.
Totally holds up.
They need this back on the switch!
Huh. Mario is a righty, and Luigi is a lefty. Why does that fit so well?

Is there a way to turn off motion controls? That's what kept me from buying Super Sluggers back then.
Better than Sluggers on Wii and no one can convince me otherwise
