Mario Stikers where do I even begin. Great fast pace gameplay, intuitive mechanics, and an overall different feel from other Mario sports games. With Battle League coming out soon I cannot wait to once again enter the world of Strikers and make content on it with a brand new entry in the franchise!
@@juanzilla6436 It really was me speaking from my heart. I have spent countless hours playing Strikers both casually and competitively and I have to say it is a large part of why I play video games to this day
Shoutouts to all media in the various degrees of the "super soccer" genre, from Captain Tsubasa, to Kunio-kun no Nekketsu Soccer League, to Shaolin Soccer, to Galactik Football, to Fifa Street and of course to Super Mario Strikers
@@Copperhell144 Yah, i'd say that the 3 biggest super soccer/football games in the world right now are Mario striker, inazuma 11 and capt.tsubasa. Mainly because they actually border to do some marketting. 1 of them was an adaptation of a popular anime while the other have multiple anime seasons adapting the game.
Bro I hate the team at Akshon Esports. Here I am minding my own business and here they come with another god tier video about such an interesting game and competitive community and now I'm here watching a 3 hour long SMS tournament what the hell
With so much to cover about the Mario Striker's scene, we are looking at a follow-up video! Special thanks to Keeps for supporting this video. Here’s the site if you want to check them out! keeps.com/Akshon
Considering the fact that ONLY the United States calls the game "Soccer", the MAJORITY of the planet calls it "Football" so NO the majority of us HERE definitely call it by its proper title "Football"!
You guys are covering so many old-school competitive scenes, I was wondering if you know about the Monster Rancher 2 competitive scene? That might be an interesting one to cover.
The Strikers series is just amazing, both games are really fun whether you’re playing or watching. Charged is my favorite but Strikers is a fantastic game in its own right.
This is awesome to see, I remember back in 2011 when my friend introduced me to competitive smash I looked if there was anything for Strikers and found a very little on it, can't wait to see where it goes!
Really enjoy hearing about old games sustained by an online community. Would love to see a video on Heritage for the Future, which is one of the most unique fighting games out there (in that almost all the characters are pseudo-puppeteers ), and is fun despite its broken jank. Its discord community is very active.
I’m happy more are realizing how amazing strikers is but also, I recently found out about the competitive scene with Dolphin and it makes me even happier! If I had a pc, I’d be running games with people and trying to learn how to do those lob shots, I just started learning how to do those in charged and I really wanna get better at them!
lol i remember once in highschool we had a track meet at a college campus. i somehow smuggled into the field house my wii with strikers on it and a crt. before long we had a small crowd of around 10 -15 people watching my friends and i go at it 2 v 2. that game gets hype yo.
Looking forward to the new game. I think the simple fact that it’s 4v4 makes it different from the original two. Nintendo multiplayer games have a habit of trying new things, for better and for worse so I don’t see any new sports games replacing the old
Looking forward to the Charged Football in the future and wonderful video here on Strikers. The development of the item rule set was fascinating to learn about and the jokes + footage was insanely hilarious. I had to pause at 4:42 because I was laughing too much.
Mario Strikers is just great. It's by far the most competitive Mario-Sports-Game, and i think the next installement of this series really has the chance to elevate it to the next level.
@@TheDarkGBJ Wouldn't call Charged "gimmicky." That's pretty unfair to.the game actually. It's still Mario Strikers. There's plenty of.skill involved with the game. The only "gimmicky" thing is that it has motion controls. But that's only used for tackling. There's barely anything "gimmicky" about it.
Kinda makes you wonder how deep the retro esport well goes. I’d love to see more appreciation for things like the GBA or DS in this sense, but I have no idea what else could rise in popularity.
I think we've seen a resurgence for GCN because A) Melee proved these old games still have merit and can support a community long-term, B) the GameCube and other 6th-Gen consoles were the first to boast 3D graphical capabilities that aren't mostly boxy polygons, C) emulation has become more accepted as the original hardware gets older, and increasing computing power has made the average desktop capable of smoothly running these games, and D) the pandemic forced a lot of pre-existing and small communities to go online through Dolphin, and many of them created unique Dolphin builds to better facilitate netplay, which opens the door for more people to try it out. I'd love to see some DS or GBA games blow up, but that might be more difficult. Most of them weren't really built with multiplayer in mind, particularly on the GBA. A Mario Kart DS scene might be cool, though; that game holds up well, and might just have been the most important and improved entry in the franchise's history.
Ignoring Gen 3 Pokémon... Mega Man Battle Network is the most popular e-sport on the GBA as now, most of the games on that system, as I know, are speedruns. I think in the 3/DS era, Inazuma Eleven got a passionate Community (Japan, Brazil and weirdly enough, Spain.) A football RPG with customable teams and over the top techniques? I don't see why it can be a good candidate. I Hope this franchise get a spotlight in the next installment.
@@FinalShadowZX Well, I'm Spanish so seeing as you dub us as weird made me chuckle a little bit. Inazuma Eleven got so popular here that during a brief time it overshadowed Pokémon in popularity. I mean, Football is the most popular sport in Spain so it's easy to this being popular here.
@@aleblasco39 I said that because of all spanish speaking countries, Spain is the only one who give it a chance, I don't know about the other European countries. I'm from México, where Football IS a religion, but the anime didn't have a chance. The OG anime didn't finish the dub (but the Movie had an Official dub) , GO didn't have one and Last Year Ares was dubbed but used the Official western names, where the OG dub use the japanese names most of the times (The names which can't be translated.) And in America only two games got an official release, a Strikers game and the 3DS Re-Release of IE 1. We got shafted. I really Hope that Great Road of Heroes have, at least, an European release, so I can import it thanks to the switch beign region free.
Me and a buddy rented Super Strikers for a sleepover once, and even though I never felt like I really got a good grip on the controls, that one night playing it for hours still sticks out as one of my favorite gaming memories
It’s called football because you play it with your foot… Anyway, so glad this game is gaining attention again and I was blown away that were finally getting a sequel. This might also be a rare chance that Nintendo might support the new game competitive on a big scale now. If the online is good and the game is just as competitive, if not more then the first two game we might have something special on the way.
Explain that to your ancestors who called it Soccer short for Association. Edit: That's literally where it comes from. The UK calling it soccer as slang for association football. The term migrated across the pond.
@@JohnSmith-sk7cg keep on sniffing that good old hopium! „Soccer“ died very fast apparently in england after they were out of beer for that night and came back to consciousness
@@JohnSmith-sk7cg yeah we named the professional leagues association football, which eventually got shortened to soccer, but when it was created, and ever since then, the sport has been called football
@@majorsalty7228 Right, so blame your ancestors for calling it soccer back in the day. We just going by what you called it when it took off here and saw no reason to change.
Super Mario Strikers was one of my all-time favorites. You just let me know that there is, in fact, a new one for the Switch and I have already pre-ordered it! Thank you!
I remember telling my dad to buy the game. I'm mexican so Football/Soccer was part of our culture. As a kid I hated it. Didn't like FIFA so when I bought the game it made me fall in love with the sport as well as this game. Best FIFA ever
I was always one of the top ranked players in strikers charged back in the day on online play. There were a lot of exploits, especially with the z button, that made the game super deep and a lot of fun. There were so many ways to score and none of them involved actually shooting the ball lol. Would love to see that covered as well.
I didn't realize this game was so niche today. I've been playing semi regularly for any gaming night (locally). Although the new one on switch has me excited for 4v4 games (especially with parsec).
GameCube dubs Wii and the Switch. The games were just pure fun. You could play the game with other people in the same room and it didn’t get stale like these new games.
Funny enough, I call Soccer International Football, or just Soccer itself. Because where I live in the world, there are 4 or 5 different other codes of Football. Australian Rules Football. Rugby League Rugby Union (Also known as Super Rugby) Soccer (International Football) American Gridiron Football (NFL) Irish Gaelic Football If someone comes to a sports store asking if we have any Footballs, I ask "Which Football are you talking about?"
What I love about the Mario Striker series is how it turned the Mario cast into absolute badasses. You never expect someone as bright and colorful as let’s say Yoshi. Honestly, the game is more interesting than any FIFA imho…..
@1:59 Those stats actually show that most of your viewers call it football. literally only americans call it soccer and they make up 47% vs the 53% rest of the world
I'm glad this video was produced, because this underseen game needed some love. I got this game like around 8-9, and being the age I am now I wish I could still play it. I remember the countless days me, my brother's and cousins would just play this either competitive with each other or against computers. I'm pretty sure we got far enough in the game due to the cups, that we could get the robot character. Yet even now with battle league, I don't think it's going to sit well with me that core mechanics from the original is not coming back. For example, charged shots are now used with power orbs. Great way to balance the game, but in my opinion it could've just been a mode in the game. Now if there is a mode for no orb and stick to everyone having the power, well throw my statement out. In all honesty, great game and even greater sequel needed to be on Switch somehow
Gotta get into the scene because I remember played like 5 seasons with my friends and exploited it Coast 2 coast shots are killer if they’re not ready for it
They can't take down emulators legally, just anything directly related to their products such as mods and fan projects based on their games (mostly, there are some which slipped through). Dolphin has been there since 2003 lol, it never went.
man, i've been playing strikers on dolphin for at least 3 years now and had no idea there was an online functionality or discord server, let alone a competitive scene looooooool
Striker's is such a awesome game to play with friends I'm so ready for the new game and I'm most likely still going to play the original game for years to come it's just too good
My friend and I still play Strikers whenever we see each other. In college we tried to find a strikers competitive community but were unsuccessful. However, we don’t use items and try to use the purest skill mechanics of the game
when we played this game items weren't that big of a problem but we forbade lob-shots - not because how in the video they go in so often but because even a weak lob-shot from the midfield would very likely stun the keeper for a short time leaving the goal open for an easy tap-in After some time where half of our goals where like this we decided to not use that mechanic anymore as it made the game boring and was not possible to defend against (except if you got lucky and got to the rebound first)
@@HannesHenkelmann bro you probably have the weak goalies cheat on if that’s happening. My friend and I don’t use a ton of lob shots but have found if you get close to the box and do a quick turn around when the goalie comes out, you can lob it over them
Most people call it Football. There is literally zero debate unless you live in USA or Canada...and even the Canadians have the sense to call it Football around everyone except the Americans.
As a European, hearing "soccer" in an English video helps me know which sport we're talking about. I'd still argue it's actually called "football", but at least here there's no mix-up.
people are finally catching up to how great of a console that the gamecube was, so many amazing games on that thing
Most underrated console of all time, didn't sell well but it's been the longest played console of its generation.
I love my cube games and the games when dolphin and higher resolution are great. And you can use a cube controller on the pc with a cheap adapter.
The GC is tiny and portable (it even has a handle!), unique purple design aesthetic, pleasant and uncluttered interface, and FANTASTIC set of titles.
and the worst controller of all time.
@@Adaephonable nah man, GC controller were unconventional but still is the most durable controller of all generations and it's more ergonomic than the PS2 controller. My controllers still work after almost 2 decades.
Most important factors of Mario Strikers:
1. Waluigi's "S*ck muh D*ck" celebration
2. Daisy lookin like she do
I remember the first time I saw Waluigi's celebration, I didn't know he was a member of D-Generation X lol
You really didn’t have to censor the u in suck.

I credit Strikers for single-handedly turning me into an ass man. 9 year old me saw the manual artwork of Daisy and the rest is history

Still makes no sense how the most successful mario sports game of a very popular sport took such a longtime to return
I'd rather play a soccer/association football game with robots and dinosaurs than the same iconic players in loot boxes.
GameCube dubs Wii and the Switch. The games were just pure fun. You could play the game with other people in the same room and it didn’t get stale like these new games.
How?
So many good Nintendo esport videos. I still want a video about Smogon, the most popular Pokemon third party league.
They have to bring back some of the ost, the music in charged is amazing 👏
Please do a video on MS Charged. I would love to see that
Funny enough, I call Soccer International Football, or just Soccer itself.
Because where I live in the world, there are 4 or 5 different other codes of Football.
Australian Rules Football.

Flashbacks to picking Toad and hopping over the goalie
This game was the shit with my cousins in the late 2000s - early 2010s.. it was so satisfying to make a goal !!
Can't wait for Nintendo to put out a watered down version of the game out on the Switch
Would love a new Hoops games too

I'm pretty sure we got far enough in the game due to the cups, that we could get the robot character. Yet even now with battle league, I don't think it's going to sit well with me that core mechanics from the original is not coming back. For example, charged shots are now used with power orbs. Great way to balance the game, but in my opinion it could've just been a mode in the game. Now if there is a mode for no orb and stick to everyone having the power, well throw my statement out.
In all honesty, great game and even greater sequel needed to be on Switch somehow
Finally, a football video game that doesn't involve Ultimate Team and stupid clickbait pack openings.
And it has Mario in it! And Mario is always better then the ultimate team
This is an unexpected but welcome surprise! I LOVE playing Mario Strikers Charged on Dolphin!
I never played the old ones, but as a soccer lover I’m definitely getting the new one when it comes out. So exciting
That Elden Ring Keeps ad was hilarious to me lol
Strikers charged was so live back in day. I need to get that game back.

No way was this a casual mario sports game... As soon as you saw toad with a glare, you'd know this was hardcore
I'm actually so proud and happy of owning a really good condition copy of this game on GameCube. I genuinely love this game so much!!!
It's so cool that there are still emulators out there. Nintendo and other big companies took most of the good ones down.
They can't take down emulators legally, just anything directly related to their products such as mods and fan projects based on their games (mostly, there are some which slipped through). Dolphin has been there since 2003 lol, it never went.
Tbh you can toss any good to mid tier sports game in front of average sports fan and they be like "bUt iT dOeSnT hAvE uLtImaTe tEaM"
Strikers and Mario Tennis are no cap two of the best sports games ever lol
im so excited for the new mario strikers game. i literally jumped out of my seat when it got announced
I was ranked #1 on Strikers Charged for 1 week, then I quit on top, why wasn't I interviewed?
8:36 damn peach. sheeeeesh
Everyone talking about FIFA or PES, when the actual greatest football videogame in history is Mario Strikers
Just got into this game 3 days ago. JOIN THE DISCORD AND PLAY ONLINE!!!!!!- Howie
man, i've been playing strikers on dolphin for at least 3 years now and had no idea there was an online functionality or discord server, let alone a competitive scene looooooool
You've been playing on Dolphin and didn't know it has Netplay?
I don't see any of the players using an unblockable shot I discovered by playing with my friends and brothers. Gotta play online!
Its surreal hearing the date as 20XX and it be relevant.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have some mavericks to hunt.
Honestly this game plays more like hockey than soccer and I'm all for it. Hyped for the new game coming out!
Fun fact, due to the AFL (Australian Football League) we also call it soccer instead of football to avoid confusion.
I'm glad the best Mario sports games are starting to get the respect they deserve.
Striker's is such a awesome game to play with friends I'm so ready for the new game and I'm most likely still going to play the original game for years to come it's just too good
My friend and I still play Strikers whenever we see each other. In college we tried to find a strikers competitive community but were unsuccessful. However, we don’t use items and try to use the purest skill mechanics of the game
yeah the items kinda take the fun out of it sometimes when you play more seriously
when we played this game items weren't that big of a problem but we forbade lob-shots - not because how in the video they go in so often but because even a weak lob-shot from the midfield would very likely stun the keeper for a short time leaving the goal open for an easy tap-in
After some time where half of our goals where like this we decided to not use that mechanic anymore as it made the game boring and was not possible to defend against (except if you got lucky and got to the rebound first)
@@HannesHenkelmann bro you probably have the weak goalies cheat on if that’s happening. My friend and I don’t use a ton of lob shots but have found if you get close to the box and do a quick turn around when the goalie comes out, you can lob it over them
yooo that elden ring add was something else
This shit real with friends game goes crazy
abolutely loved this game so happy you made a video on it
I wanted some of these games when I was younger, hope they remake sonic riders
Most people call it Football. There is literally zero debate unless you live in USA or Canada...and even the Canadians have the sense to call it Football around everyone except the Americans.
They're referring to their UA-cam analytics, not everyone in the world. That said, the pic they put up on screen doesn't exactly help their point lol.
As a European, hearing "soccer" in an English video helps me know which sport we're talking about.
I'd still argue it's actually called "football", but at least here there's no mix-up.
